Description Oliver Hiorns 2022-02-27 03:34:29 UTC
When using X (or Xwayland), programs can request the `clickthrough` attribute. This lets mouse-clicks and focusing go through the window as if it weren't there, which is useful for overlays which the user does not want to interfere with the actual application behind - for example integrating `glava` into a desktop.
Currently in Kwin this does not seem to be possible.
