pixi stage click through

[aseptik]

Hi there, I am trying to get a click through a transparent pixi stage, on a dom element that sit behind the pixi stage.

Am i missing some parameters, or this is not possible ?

the stage is interactive. that means that i have clickable elements in pixi as well, and stage have to be interactive.

Not possible, forget about pixi. You are clicking a DOM element (canvas) in front of your underlying element, the event wont reach it. Same as if you has a link, and put a transparent div atop it. You can no longer click the link.

ah cool thanks. I managed to invert things. so now i have the dom element on the top of pixi. I need to let the click through the dom element. 

s there any method i can call on pixi ?

I tried to detect the element, via document.elementFromPoint, then doing element.click() but it doesn't look pixi get it.

Any idea?

 

thanks

Not right now, we are expecting to allow users to input events into the interaction system in v4 of pixi. Right now we listen for events ourselves on canvas, the only way to input events into the system manually is to dispatchEvent directly on the canvas element.

You can use pointer events in evergreen browsers to allow 'click-through' transparent divs.

 

Its not going to help you with the interactive stage thing though, its an all-or-nothing at the DOM element level.
