Window: vrdisplayfocus event

Deprecated

This feature is no longer recommended. Though some browsers might still support it, it may have already been removed from the relevant web standards, may be in the process of being dropped, or may only be kept for compatibility purposes. Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.

The vrdisplayfocus event of the WebVR API is fired when presentation to a VR display has resumed after being blurred.

Note: This event was part of the old WebVR API. It has been superseded by the WebXR Device API.

Examples

You can use the vrdisplayfocus event in an addEventListener method:

window.addEventListener('vrdisplayfocus', function() {
  info.textContent = 'Display focused.';
  reportDisplays();
});

Or use the onvrdisplayfocus event handler property:

window.onvrdisplayfocus = function() {
  info.textContent = 'Display focused.';
  reportDisplays();
};

Specifications

This event was part of the old WebVR API that has been superseded by the WebXR Device API. It is no longer on track to becoming a standard.

Until all browsers have implemented the new WebXR Device API, it is recommended to rely on frameworks, like A-Frame, Babylon.js, or Three.js, or a polyfill, to develop WebXR applications that will work across all browsers [1].
