any-pointer
The any-pointer
CSS media feature tests whether the user has any pointing device (such as a mouse), and if so, how accurate it is.
Note: If you want to test the accuracy of the primary pointing device, use pointer
instead.
Syntax
The any-pointer
feature is specified as a keyword value chosen from the list below.
none
-
No pointing device is available.
coarse
-
At least one input mechanism includes a pointing device of limited accuracy.
fine
-
At least one input mechanism includes an accurate pointing device.
Note: More than one value can match if the available devices have different characteristics, although none
only matches when none of them are pointing devices.
Examples
This example creates a small checkbox for users with at least one fine pointer and a large checkbox for users with at least one coarse pointer. The big checkbox takes precedence because it is declared after the small one.
HTML
<input id="test" type="checkbox" />
<label for="test">Look at me!</label>
CSS
input[type="checkbox"]:checked {
background: gray;
}
@media (any-pointer: fine) {
input[type="checkbox"] {
-moz-appearance: none;
-webkit-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
border: 1px solid blue;
}
}
@media (any-pointer: coarse) {
input[type="checkbox"] {
-moz-appearance: none;
-webkit-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
width: 30px;
height: 30px;
