Document: exitPointerLock() method
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Want more support for this feature? Tell us why.
The exitPointerLock() method of the Document interface asynchronously releases a pointer lock previously requested through Element.requestPointerLock.
Note:
While the exitPointerLock() method is called on the document, the requestPointerLock() method is called on an element.
To track the success or failure of the request, it is necessary to listen for the pointerlockchange and pointerlockerror events.
Syntax
js
exitPointerLock()
Parameters
None.
