jQuery stopPropagation not stopping click through-CodePudding

I have a panzoom plugin that is working well. When I click on var elem it adds a small div cp_select in the correct location. Then, when I click on that newly created cp_select div, it removes that div. So you can add and remove it accordingly. However, when I click on the cp_select div, it removes it then immediately adds it back in because the click is propagating through. I have tried event.stopPropagation() and event.stopImmediatePropagation() with no luck. Any ideas how to prevent the cp_select firing the map_click(e)?

window.panzoom = panzoom(elem, {
        onClick(e)     {
            map_click(e);
        }
})


function map_click(e) {
    
    $(".map_cont").prepend('<div  style="left:' calc_x 'px ;top:' calc_y 'px"></div>');

}


 $('body').on('click', '.cp_select', function(event) {
    
    event.stopImmediatePropagation()
    $(this).remove()
    return false;
    
});

Why not just toggle a visibility class of the clicked cp_select item?

// adjust values of below variables 
let rowCount = 10;
let colCount = 10;
let tileSize = 50;

let mapCont = $(".map_cont"); // if this is a single item, consider using an id instead of a class

// start with adding hidden .cp_select items on all tiles
for (let i = 0; i < rowCount; i  ) {
    for (let j = 0; j < colCount; j  ) {
        let top = i * tileSize;
        let left = j * tileSize;
        let tile = `<div  style="top:${top}px ;left:${left}px"></div>`;
        mapCont.prepend(tile);
    }
}

$(document).on('click', '.cp_select', function(event) {
    $(this).toggleClass("hide");        
});

And add the below css rule

.hide {
    display: none;
}

The problem must be specifically with however panzoom is dealing with its onClick, or otherwise in code not shown in the question; if I substitute a plain click event handler on the window in place of your panzoom call, event.stopPropagation() works as expected.

// nonessential code removed and simplified for demo

function map_click() {
  $(".map_cont").prepend('<div ></div>');
}

$('body').on('click', '.cp_select', function(event) {
  $(this).remove();
  event.stopPropagation();
});


window.onclick = map_click // stand-in for your panzoom function

.cp_select {
  border: 3px solid;
  height: 20px; width: 20px;
}
