About this capability
Apply Remotion Studio's pointerless interaction styling to clickable controls. Use when adding or revising Studio buttons or links that should use the default cursor, brighten on hover, and show focus decoration only for keyboard navigation.
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by remotion-dev/remotion in .agents/skills/no-pointer/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Use the established Studio interaction convention for clickable controls:
- Set
cursor: 'default'; do not usecursor: 'pointer'. - Drive purely visual hover styling through
HOVERABLE_CLASS_NAMEandhoverableStyle()frompackages/studio/src/helpers/hoverable.ts. Do not add React hover state for color or background changes. - Keep the background unchanged unless the surrounding component already uses
a shared background-hover convention. For a text-only action, use
TRANSPARENTfor bothidleBackgroundandhoverBackground. - Use
LIGHT_TEXT(#A6A7A9) as the idle color andWHITE(white) as the hover color. Icons and nested text must follow the same state; inspect the element that paints the pixels if the Studio CSS reset blocks inheritance.
Focus styling
Remove the default outline and pointer-focus shadow, but preserve a visible
keyboard focus indicator. Add FOCUS_VISIBLE_ONLY_CLASS_NAME from
packages/studio/src/helpers/hoverable.ts to the control alongside
HOVERABLE_CLASS_NAME. The shared class implements this pattern:
.__remotion-focus-visible-only:focus {
outline: none;
box-shadow: none;
}
.__remotion-focus-visible-only:focus-visible {
box-shadow: ${FOCUS_BOX_SHADOW};
}
Never remove the :focus-visible indicator. Keep hidden actions out of the tab
order until they are discoverable.
Verify
In a running Studio, check the control's computed styles in all relevant states:
- idle and hovered cursor:
default; - idle color:
rgb(166, 167, 169); - hovered color:
rgb(255, 255, 255); - pointer focus: no outline or box shadow;
- keyboard
Tabfocus: the standardFOCUS_BOX_SHADOWis visible.
