The Keyboard and Mouse Focus

Use your mouse or trackpad to move around the screen. Do you see the arrow that changes to a hand or a line as you move around? That pointer shows where your mouse focus is located.

Now, take your hand off the mouse or trackpad. Press the Tab key on your keyboard a few times. Do you see an outline or changes in color move around the screen? That outline, change in color, or other visual indicate shows where your keyboard focus is located.

Tip: Your mouse focus and keyboard focus are not always in the same place.
