I have another request: Would it be possible to add some of the click bar functionality to video feeds? Specifically, would it be possible for a video feed, in addition to passing a click through to the target, to also do a mapped key on a click? I am envisaging something similar to how clicks work for click bars, where you can specify mapped keys for left and right click + modifiers.
Why would anyone want to do this? Let me explain...
Case 1
I have a set of feeds that I use to track quests on my slaves. Those feeds have mouse pass-through enabled. In RIFT that means that the slave's quest log opens up to the appropriate quest (on a left click) or I can track a particular quest (on a right click). What I would really like to happen is that a left click not only opens the quest log of that slave but also opens an interactive video feed of that slave's quest log.
I can get most of this behaviour by putting a click bar behind the slave's quest tracker feeds which, on left click, sends L to the appropriate slot and also opens the appropriate interactive feed of the slave's quest log but I need to turn off mouse pass-through in the first feed to get this to work. The only issue with doing it this way is that the quest log just doesn't open to the correct quest. Not a big deal but is would be cool to have it work as above.
Case 2
My feeds of is1-is5 used to have a click bar behind them that allowed me to switch to that slot by right-clicking on the feed (which fell through to the bar). Now that I have made my feeds interact with the mouse, the clicks no longer fall through. It would be very cool if, in addition to being fully interactive, say Ctrl+Right-Clicking the feed switched to that slot.
