Pointer capture makes it so that pointer events cannot hit test to any other element but the one with capture. It follows, then, that a move can only be detected to have entered or left the hit test bounds of the element with capture ("A user agent MUST dispatch this event when a pointing device is moved into the hit test boundaries of an element." [1]). So, pointerover/pointerout only fire for entering/leaving the element with capture but do not fire for entering/leaving other elements. This is what occurs in the test case where pointerover is dispatched to the element (#target0) that has capture. -Jacob On Wed, Oct 30, 2013 at 2:43 PM, <Cathy.Chan@nokia.com> wrote: I don't have anything to add (yet) except a link to the original thread: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2013AprJun/0120.html - Cathy. > From: ext Rick Byers [mailto:rbyers@google.com] > Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2013 10:43 PM > To: Scott González; Jacob Rossi > Cc: public-pointer-events@w3.org > Subject: Re: Impact of pointer capture on pointerover/pointerout events > > Reviving this old thread - I don't think we ever talked about it on a call > (I was away for the following call and it looks like we never re-scheduled > discussing of it). > > The Microsoft test submission says it expects to receive a pointerover > event in exactly this scenario ( > https://github.com/InternetExplorer/web-platform-tests/blob/ddffbdc5edd63c972b9ee42df1f161fc17778125/pointerevents/capture.html#L16), > but it's not actually validating that it happens and IE11 appears not to do > it. > > I think we need some clarity on what the spec intends here.
