    Hi Guys!

    Is there any solution to close the “Overlay” feature by clicking anywhere? Currently there is only an option to close by clicking on the close button.

      clicking on that background should close it

        Hi Armin,

        It works, but not in my case :) I don't know how I could apply this along with centering the menu...

        Check this (overlay is a menu):

          oh, your overlay is 100% width and 100% height
          so this setting doesn't apply here:

          basically the background you mean is the background of the overlay layout that you set to transparent here:

          let me think about it

            <script>
            jQuery(document).on('click', '#lay-overlays .lay-content', function(e){
                jQuery(e.target.closest('.lay-overlay')).find('.overlay-close').click();
            })
            </script>
            

            this closes the overlay whenever you click on anything inside the overlay
            put it in lay options → custom css & html → custom <head> content

            this only works if you have the X close icon activated for your overlay
