[QUOTE="Discerptor, post: 1249959, member: 12177"] Apple's frameworks allow developers to enable/disable click-through (what this functionality is indeed called in official documentation) for every single control on a window. This is something just left to the developer's discretion, because they are expected to follow certain Human Interface Guidelines, such as disabling click-through for controls that could be damaging if hit by accident (like a delete button with no confirmation dialog). You'd probably be best off asking the specific app developers to change what in their application windows can be clicked through to, or to provide some preference for overriding them. In the short term, you might want to find applications whose developers have enabled click through on the items you want to hit while another window is in focus. [/QUOTE]
