Panel: is it transparent to underlying views?

You need to consume the panel click event otherwise it will go through to underlying views.
You can do this by simple creating a Panel_Touch sub. I am not sure whether or not you need to return True/False, but surely you can experiment with that.

I used to add the panel_touch, but in later versions, I think that simply a panel_click will consume the event. Works for me, but who knows of course

Hmm, how about some sample code? I think I tried adding a panel_click sub in my code, but it wasn't consumed.

This is an old thread !

What exactly did you do ?
Without seeing what you have done and how impossible to give you a concrete advice !

I do:

B4X:

sub panel_click
dim i as int=0
i=i+1
end sub

B4X:

sub panel_click
dim i as int=0
i=i+1
end sub

Yet easier:

B4X:

sub panel_click
Return
end sub

ok, tried that.

So, the buttons under that panel (which are partially visible) are still clickable.

You can even simply use:

B4X:

Sub Panel1_Click

End Sub

On my device your code works as expected !
If you click on the button in an area where the button is covered by the panel nothing happens.
If you click on a visible area of the button, the Button1_Click event is, of cours, fired.

Oh OK, got it. I will just resize my panel (s) to cover the underlying buttons.
