Adding clickable="false" doesn't change things. The clickability isn't the problem I'm having. The issue is the mouse pointer changes to make it *look* like something is clickable. If you try to click something behind the mask nothing happens, clicks only work on my modal view, but it would be nicer if the mouse cursor didn't change to make it look like things are clickable when they aren't.

Make your colored transparent mask clickable="false".

I'm using the LzModeManager to make a view modal. I have this view appearing over the top of my application and I'm using a colored transparent mask to cover the rest of the application while this view is visible. Using the 'makeModel' method on the LzModeManager makes my view modal, which is what I want, but I noticed that if I move my mouse over other normally clickable UI elements which are visible beneath my mask view, the cursor changes to the hand pointer. This would normally indicate that the user is allowed to click. Fortunately the mode manager prevents the clicks from doing anything, but visually it seems wrong. It seems to me that if a view is modal, only that view should be able to affect the mouse cursor. Anything outside of the modal view should simply display the regular mouse pointer. This seems like a bug to me, but perhaps others have a different view and perhaps this behavior is as intended.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks!
