VistasHow to forward specific event to overlapped DOM element
I have two completely overlapped divs; The top layer has a scroll behavior because it has overflowing content, and I want to keep the scrolling behavior.
The underlying layer has different section with different click handler; boxes (X, Y, Z) in the picture.
How do I have a click handler for the underlying layer while keeping the scrolling on the top layer?
I have tried CSS
pointer-events: none;but it forwards all events, which cause the scrolling on the top layer to be disabled.I have tried to manually
dispatchEventusing javascript, but the event sourcing doesn't work as normal.
Here is the DOM structure
<div>
<div
ref="layer2"
class="
layer2
h-96
cursor-pointer
text-2xl text-center
flex
space-x-4
items-center
justify-center
bg-green-400
"
style="width: 600px"
@click="handleLayer2"
>
<div
@click="handleSection('x')"
class="w-[200px] h-[8rem] bg-red-600 shadow-lg rounded h-24"
>
X
</div>
<div
@click="handleSection('y')"
class="w-[200px] h-[8rem] bg-red-600 shadow-lg rounded h-24"
>
Y
</div>
<div
@click="handleSection('z')"
class="w-[200px] h-[8rem] bg-red-600 shadow-lg rounded h-24"
>
Z
</div>
</div>
<div
class="
layer1
absolute
top-0
left-0
bg-pink-500
h-96
text-xl
whitespace-nowrap
text-center
opacity-70
overflow-scroll
pt-64
"
style="width: 600px"
@click="handleLayer1"
>
really long content ...
</div>

To make my explanation easier I'll need to give each of the divs names. Let's call the absolutely positioned div topDiv, and the divs underneath downDivs.
You're also going to need a click handler on topDiv itself. That handler is what we will use to "forward" the event to the downDivs.
In your topDiv click handler, you'd do something like this:
// first hide the `topDiv`
event.target.hidden = true;
// Get the element underneath that also falls under the click location
let downDiv = document.elementFromPoint(event.clientX, event.clientY);
// Unhide the topDiv
event.target.hidden = false;
// We still need to confirm that the element gotten is actually a downDiv
if (!downDiv.classList.includes('down-div'))
return;
// Now we can dispatch a duplicate click event on the downDiv
downDiv.dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent('click', {
bubbles: true,
pageX: event.pageX,
pageY: event.pageY,
clientX: event.clientX,
clientY: event.clientY,
}));
// Now you can handle the clicks on the downDiv anyway you like :)
