Is it possible to have, say, a multiboard the size of the game screen, and be able to click through it?

And if not, would a project like Reinventing the Craft be able to add such a thing?
 
Possible with both AFAIK because its possible to detect mouse events
(someone did in inventory system with normal wc3)

Finding their positions is up to you
 
The inventory system you refer to was made using trackables, and does not use a multiboard at all (Or at least, not in the method I'm referring to). I was more hoping for an HUD (Heads up display) sort of system.
 
I believe a click-through multiboard is impossible at this moment. Except maybe using some tricks with RtC. (Such as detecting a click, hiding the multiboard, and sending the click again, or something like that)
 
Not too impossible, I mean, you can make it like the inventory systems. Simply just move it to a boundary point, create a trackable of a custom model (the size you want your button or something) then register it on click.

Requires JASS though, and it isn't really "simple". I am hoping to make a mod for this. I am working on it and it will hopefully be like that but an ability menu for Darkholme's Dungeon Keeper.
 
The hide-and-send-click-again method might work in the short run, I guess. I'm still going to hope it might be possible in RtC though. Thanks anyways.
