I'm using a QDialog with transparency enabled to select a region of the screen for a screen capture tool. When the user clicks inside the transparent widget I want to ignore the mouse event so that the system handles it. Is this possible?
I'm trying to achieve this on Linux.
Some things I have tried with no success:
QtWidgets.QWidget.setWindowFlags(QtCore.Qt.WindowTransparentForInput)QtWidgets.QWidget.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.WA_TransparentForMouseEvents)QtWidgets.QWidget.setMask(QtGui.QRegion(self.geometry()))- Subclassing
mousePressEventand ignoring the event
