(Somehow?) On xorg, disable click-through when tiling is in focus (centered) mode

[jonseppanen]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When windows are tiled in normal mode, it makes sense to click through when switching focus with the mouse.
However, when windows are in focus mode there is a lot less reason to have this feature, and I am finding the rapid animations causing a lot of mis-drags when using focus mode.

Describe the solution you'd like
A way to disable click-through during focus mode, but keep it for normal mode

Describe alternatives you've considered
I have looked into disabling all click-through (I believe this is the wayland behaviour) but on xorg, and cant find much.

Additional context
N/A

I don't quite understand what you mean by "click through" here.

Any chance you could take a video or screenshots to explain what you mean by this?

[jonseppanen]

Not sure how to show this in a video.

When you click an unfocused window without click-through, the window gets focused, but the click is not passed to the window, thus not interacting with it. (e.g, any button under the mouse would not be clicked)

When you click an unfocused window with click-through, the window gets focused and the click is passed to the window, interacting with it (e.g, any button under the mouse would be clicked)

MacOS (and I think gnome wayland?) does not click-through on focus.
Gnome Xorg does click-through on focus
KDE allows you to set either way as preference.

Thanks @jonseppanen, gotcha. This could probably be achieved with a "cover pane" type actor that sits on top of our windows which absorbs the first click (after which the cover pane disables and the window is activated).

Interestingly, we already have an element that sits on top of windows and dims the windows during minimap navigation (actually, it sits on top of our window clones, but same concept).

Will have a think about this one.

I believe this is the wayland behaviour)

I don't think it is - doesn't appear to be for me anyway.
