Really?  I hope we're talking about the same thing here.  I just
created a new blank Cocoa Application, and changed the window to a
custom class with this initialization code:

@implementation MyWindow

- (void)awakeFromNib {
        [self setOpaque:NO];
        [self setBackgroundColor:[NSColor clearColor]];
        
        [[self contentView] setLayer:[CALayer layer]];
        [[self contentView] setWantsLayer:YES];
        
        CALayer* layer = [CALayer layer];
        layer.frame = CGRectMake(10, 10, 100, 100);
        layer.borderWidth = 3;
        
        [[[self contentView] layer] addSublayer:layer];
}

@end


The transparent areas of the window intercept clicks.  Do you see
different behavior?  How would you change the above code to make the
transparent areas also transparent to clicks?

What do you mean by "turn clickthrough on and off"?  Just to
reiterate, I'm talking about clicking through to *other* application
windows beneath my window.  I'm not talking about [view
acceptsFirstMouse:YES] type of click-through.

Thanks for the help,
