Ignore Mouse when Clipped

C8G_Master

Control has a wonderful ability to clip content of children when outside its bounds. But when I do that the parts of children that are invisible due to being clipped will still react to mouse input. Is there a way to turn this off?

I did more digging and found this git issue: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/5172

It had the suggestion of adding:

func _clips_input():
    return true

This works, but I placed that block on the wrong object. For some reason I put it on the object being clipped, not the control that designated the clip area.
