I want to place a "See through" element ontop of a canvas.

Would I be better useing a Panal, or another canvas?

Can it be done, other than me Grabbing the backgroung image, drawing the additional stuff, and using that.

Can't it just be the last thing you draw before flipping the canvas in it's redraw?

Yes it could, but I want it to be a separate "Mouse area", so if I could use a panal or a cavas, then it would be. (Basicaly I want transparent buttons)

You should be fine with either, just make sure you parent them to the background canvas so they are drawn in front and in the case of a panel use the ACTIVE_PANEL flag to get mouse events.
