Make a frame click-through [help me]

[Eroox]

Hello!

"Khio" has made an addon that moves the minimap to an other location basically. However I need to be able to click-through it at the location I have it now, basically to the right of my character. How do I make the frame click-through via lua. This is the full main.lua file and I believe it is in here that I need to make it happen.

local KhioHud = LibStub("AceAddon-3.0"):NewAddon("KhioHud", "AceEvent-3.0")
local L = LibStub("AceLocale-3.0"):GetLocale("KhioHud")
 
KhioHud.minimapOverlay = _G["KhioHud"].minimapOverlay
KhioHud.toggleButton = _G["KhioHud"].toggleButton
local MinimapCluster = _G["MinimapCluster"]
local Minimap = _G["Minimap"]
 
function KhioHud:OnInitialize()
    self:InitializeSettings()
    self:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
end
 
function KhioHud:OnEnable()
    self:AddToBlizOptions()
 
    if (not KhioHud.minimapOverlay:IsVisible()) then
        KhioHud.restorePosition = KhioHud:GetMinimapPosition()
    end
 
    --ElvUI dirty fix
    if (IsAddOnLoaded("ElvUI")) then
        MinimapCluster:ClearAllPoints()
        Minimap:ClearAllPoints()
        Minimap:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", MinimapCluster)
    end
    --ElvUI dirty fix
 
    local button = KhioHud.toggleButton
    button:RegisterForClicks("LeftButtonDown", "RightButtonDown")
    button:SetScript("OnEnter", function(self, motion)
        GameTooltip:SetOwner(self, "ANCHOR_CURSOR")
        GameTooltip:AddLine(L["Left Click: Toggle Khio Hud"])
        GameTooltip:AddLine(L["Right Click: Show options"])
        GameTooltip:AddLine(L["SHIFT + Drag: Move minimap"])
        GameTooltip:Show()
    end)
    button:SetScript("OnLeave", function(self, motion)
        GameTooltip:Hide()
    end)
    button:SetScript("OnClick", function(self, button, down)
        if (button == "LeftButton" and down and not IsShiftKeyDown()) then
            KhioHud:Toggle(not KhioHud.minimapOverlay:IsVisible())
        elseif (button == "RightButton" and down) then
            InterfaceOptionsFrame_OpenToCategory("Khio Hud")
            InterfaceOptionsFrame_OpenToCategory("Khio Hud")
        end
    end)
    button:SetScript("OnMouseDown", function(self, button)
        if (button == "LeftButton" and IsShiftKeyDown() and not self.isMoving) then
            MinimapCluster:SetMovable(true)
            MinimapCluster:StartMoving()
            self.isMoving = true
        end
    end)
    button:SetScript("OnMouseUp", function(self, button)
        if (button == "LeftButton" and self.isMoving) then
            MinimapCluster:StopMovingOrSizing()
            MinimapCluster:SetMovable(false)
            self.isMoving = false
 
            KhioHudDB.minimap = KhioHud:GetMinimapPosition()
            KhioHud:Toggle(true)
        end
    end)
end
 
function KhioHud:OnDisable()
end
 
function KhioHud:PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD()
    local inInstance, instanceType = IsInInstance()
 
    if (inInstance and KhioHudDB.autoToggle.inside) then
        KhioHud:Toggle(true)
    elseif(not inInstance and KhioHudDB.autoToggle.outside) then
        KhioHud:Toggle(false)
    end
end
 
function KhioHud:Toggle(visible)
    if (visible) then
        Minimap:SetZoom(5)
        Minimap:EnableMouse(false)
        Minimap:EnableMouseWheel(false)
        MinimapCluster:SetAlpha(0)
        SetCVar("rotateMinimap", true)
        KhioHud:SetMinimapPosition(KhioHudDB.minimap.x, KhioHudDB.minimap.y)
        KhioHud.minimapOverlay:Show()
    else
        Minimap:SetZoom(1)
        Minimap:EnableMouse(true)
        Minimap:EnableMouseWheel(true)
        MinimapCluster:SetAlpha(1)
        SetCVar("rotateMinimap", false)
 
        KhioHud:SetMinimapPosition(KhioHud.restorePosition.x, KhioHud.restorePosition.y)
        KhioHud.minimapOverlay:Hide()
    end
end
 
function KhioHud:GetMinimapPosition()
    local s = MinimapCluster:GetEffectiveScale()
    return { x = MinimapCluster:GetLeft() * s, y = MinimapCluster:GetTop() * s }
end
 
function KhioHud:SetMinimapPosition(x, y)
    if (x ~= nil and y ~= nil) then
        local s = MinimapCluster:GetEffectiveScale()
        MinimapCluster:ClearAllPoints()
        MinimapCluster:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", UIParent, "BOTTOMLEFT", x / s, y / s)
    end

Are you sure? Since that line is already included here:

function KhioHud:Toggle(visible)
    if (visible) then
        Minimap:SetZoom(5)
        Minimap:EnableMouse(false) <------------------------------------
        Minimap:EnableMouseWheel(false)
        MinimapCluster:SetAlpha(0)
        SetCVar("rotateMinimap", true)
        KhioHud:SetMinimapPosition(KhioHudDB.minimap.x, KhioHudDB.minimap.y)
        KhioHud.minimapOverlay:Show()

It is true that nothing happens when you click on the frame. However your not clicking through the frame so I cant press on that area on my screen and rotate my camera angel.

Maybe if you unregister the minimaps "MINIMAP_PING" event.

Just a wag. Unlikely to work as the minimap widget is still trapping the click in order to generate the event.

If you use /fstack and over over your minimap, do you see the MinimapCluster frame or anything else below your mouse?

Line 92 turns the mouse clicks back on, set that to false.

PS: If you want the mouse wheel to pass through, set line 93 to false too.
