Enum FocusOrigin 

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum FocusOrigin {
    Keyboard,
    Pointer(PointerKind),
    Programmatic,
    Accessibility,
}

How focus was acquired.

Read by :focus-visible — a focus ring belongs to keyboard and assistive navigation, not to a click — and by anything that has to treat a finger differently from a mouse. The pointer arm carries the device that delivered the focus, because “a pointer focused this” is not one behaviour: a mouse focuses on press, a finger and a pen focus on release, and only a release that lands back on the same focusable counts.

#[non_exhaustive]: matches need a wildcard arm. Most call sites want is_pointer rather than a match at all.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Keyboard

Focus gained via Tab/Shift-Tab keyboard navigation, or by any other keystroke a widget routes into focus.

Pointer(PointerKind)

Focus gained by pointing at the widget, with the device that did it.

Programmatic

Focus set programmatically by the application. Carries no input modality of its own: a scripted focus leaves the focus ring exactly as the user’s last real interaction left it, which is what :focus-visible does for element.focus().

Accessibility

Focus moved by assistive technology — a screen reader’s Action::Focus, or an automation client standing in for one. Reveals the focus ring: the user is navigating, they are simply not doing it with a key.

Implementations

impl FocusOrigin

pub const POINTER: Self

Focus arrived by pointer, from a site that cannot know which device delivered it.

A control deriving its own origin from hover or from the tree’s input-modality signal — rather than from the FocusGained it was handed — knows only that the keyboard was not involved. It says so with PointerKind::Unknown instead of naming a device it never saw, so a consumer reading pointer_kind is never told a finger was a mouse.

pub const fn is_pointer(self) -> bool

Whether focus arrived by pointing at the widget.

The predicate that replaced == FocusOrigin::Pointer: a pointer origin now names its device, so equality against a bare variant no longer compiles and equality against one device would silently exclude the others.

pub const fn pointer_kind(self) -> Option<PointerKind>

The device that delivered a pointer focus, or None for every other origin. PointerKind::Unknown for a widget-side derivation — see POINTER.

pub const fn focus_visible(self) -> Option<bool>

Whether this origin reveals the focus ring — the :focus-visible question, answered in one place so the tree’s modality signal and any widget consulting the origin cannot disagree.

Keyboard and assistive navigation reveal it; a pointer hides it. Programmatic answers neither: a scripted focus declares no modality, so the tree leaves the signal where the last real interaction put it.
