Multilayer event catching

Hi.

I have a JLayeredPane with multiple layers in it. Each layer is a
JPanel extended class and some of them register different MouseEvent
listeners. Event catching stops at the first layer with a registered
listener, but i want it to go "through" to other layers. Any
suggestions?

Thanks, and excuse me if this question was asked before.

Forget 'what you want' and instead describe what marvellous
ability you would like to offer to the end user.

Well, basically, the program draws regions and tips for them (like
coordinates of a point). These happen to be drawn on different layers.
I want to process selection of those regions, if the user clicked on a
region itself or on a tipbox.
