When <code>pickableparts</code> is <code>"all"</code> both visible and invisible parts (or children) may react to mouse clicks. When <code>pickableparts</code> is <code>"none"</code> mouse clicks on the object are ignored and transmitted to any objects underneath this one. When an object is configured to accept mouse clicks the <code>"hittest"</code> property will determine how they are processed. See <a href="#XREFtexthittest">hittest property<!-- /@w --></a>.
