WelL, I thought the same thing for a long time, but was reluctant to “impose” so dramatically on the User Interface. But I always envision a big ugly “cover”.
Ha! So transparency works….Good, we will try it. Are you typically showing a loading msg or icon. IN other context, I should a load in message and it tell the user he can click to discontinue loading. So that she can “gracefully” leave the internet connection and go back to the app…..

I always struggled with this. I ended up putting a fully transparent grc covering everything (I call it a blanket) with 'on mouseUp' and 'on mouseDown' set with nothing in them on the grc script. This catches any stray touches I want to be ignored and allow the other processes to complete. Then hide the blanket once the process is done. MobileClearTouches was never reliable enough for me.
