You could try window->setEnabled(false);. If that doesn't work, you have a few options. You could create an event receiver that consumes mouse button events when the element under the cursor is a gui window. Something like this...

Code: Select all

virtual MyEventReceiver::OnEvent(const SEvent& event)
{
  if (event.EventType == EET_MOUSE_INPUT_EVENT)
  {
    if (event.MouseInput.EventType == EMIE_LMOUSE_PRESSED_DOWN || event.MouseInput.EventType == EMIE_LMOUSE_LEFT_UP)
    {
      const core::position2df point (event.MouseInput.X, event.MouseInput.Y);
      gui::IGUIElement* element = gui->getElementFromPoint(point);
      assert (0 != element);

      return element->getType() == gui::EGUIET_WINDOW;
    }
  }

  return false;
}

Another option is to switch to svn trunk (or wait for 1.6). It got a new function setDraggable.
