Line without click handler absorbing clicks

[NeilAgg]

I am using SmartGWT LGPL build 2025-01-14.

I have two lines which partially overlap.

The line in back has a click handler but the line in front does not.

When I click on the parts of the back line which are visible, it gets a click event.

If I click on the part of the front line which is overlapping the back line, I get no click events on the back line.

It seems to me that since the front line does not have a click handler, it should not be involved in clicks.
Then, the click should occur on whatever is behind it.

Please see the attached test case.

Sorry, as with HTML and with substantially all UI toolkits, the target of an event is not influenced by the presence of absence of a handler method.

This is, in part, because event handling is sometimes done centrally (e.g. on a parent), so the event target must be correct.

[NeilAgg]

Is there a way to add a handler which can tell the toolkit to pass it to the next item?

Well, you can add a click handler and call the same logic that would have been called if the click event had hit the other DrawLine.

I guess I am going to have to do that. It is not as simple as one line overlapping another, there are several objects which overlap. But, I should be able to do it in my code.
Thanks for the advice.
