Ability to disable pointer interactivity for a layershell window #91

Open Exidex opened 3 days ago

Exidex commented 3 days ago

Sometimes it is useful for a window to be click through, e.g. osd/hud popup

Wayland protocol page says:

Layer surfaces receive pointer, touch, and tablet events normally. If you do not want to receive them, set the input region on your surface to an empty region.

But it looks like iced_layershell doesn't provide this functionality. It is however implemented in PopOS's iced fork, you can find code fragment here:

I think the problem is how I can know the region when using the iced...

I have already supported this protocol in layershellev, but I do not quite know how to use it...
