mouseEnabled doesn't apply to descendants. (Use mouseChildren to do
that.)

Yeah, as Juan told me, tried it and it works great :) Thanks!
 
So here is another question... What if I have other controls in that
container that also need mouse interactivity?
 
As it is, the mouseEnabled property works great if I want to click
through the container, but what if that container has controls that need
to be clicked and stuff?
 
Thanks again,
Claudia

Doh! I forgot! Try setting the mouseEnabled property of your
Canvas to false.

Hi Gordon,

I do need as much interactivity as possible :)

Isn't there something like turn shield on or off? I noticed that
if you don't define a background color or alpha, you can interact with
the button. 

As for the actual WHY question... the answer is: The designer
wants it.
It is really not just one button under the translucent piece...
it is a part of the application, and the button and other controls
happens to be right there. 

Thanks,
Claudia

I don't think this is easy to do. How much interactivity
with the Button do you actually need? When you roll over the button, do
you need it to highlight? When you click, do you need the button to
depress? Or do you just need the button's click handler to execute? 
 
And I'm curious... why do you need to have a translucent
Canvas over a Button?

Hi,

How can I click through a Container (Canvas in my case)
that has a
backgroundColor set and a 0.2 backgroundAlpha.

I want to be able to interact with a button that is
under the Container.

Thanks, 
Claudia
