Each frame is an independent entity with respect to mouse and keyboard input. You can have one frame create another frame that could accept user input. A frame is a popup, a root level container, when painting it isn't clipped by its parent (its visibility is controlled by the parent however).
The "vgui_drawtree" console command is a good tool to visualize the hierarchy of VGUI2 panels in the game and how they effect each other. - Alfred ----Original Message---- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Maurino Berry Sent: Friday, January 07, 2005 1:27 AM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: RE: [hlcoders] quick menu question > Having a frame open will get mouse control, yes.
