Frequently Asked Questions

Why use outline-offset?

Outline-offset creates space between the element and its outline, making focus indicators more visible without covering border designs or adjacent content.

Should I remove default outlines?

Never remove focus outlines without replacement. If you hide default outlines (:focus { outline: none }), always provide a visible custom focus indicator.

What offset value should I use?

2-4px is common. Enough to separate from borders but not so much it touches adjacent elements. Test with keyboard navigation to ensure visibility.
