Element: gotpointercapture event
{{APIRef("Pointer Events")}}
The gotpointercapture event is fired when an element captures a pointer using setPointerCapture().
Syntax
Use the event name in {{domxref("EventTarget/addEventListener", "addEventListener()")}}:
addEventListener("gotpointercapture", (event) => { })
Alternatively, assign to the event handler property of the interface:
ongotpointercapture = (event) => { }
Event type
A {{domxref("PointerEvent")}}. Inherits from {{domxref("Event")}}.

Examples
This example gets a <p> element and listens for the gotpointercapture event. It then calls setPointerCapture() on the element on a pointerdown event, which will trigger gotpointercapture.
const para = document.querySelector("p");
para.addEventListener("gotpointercapture", () => {
console.log("I've been captured!");
});
para.addEventListener("pointerdown", (event) => {
para.setPointerCapture(event.pointerId);
});
The same example, using the ongotpointercapture event handler property (but note that this replaces other event listeners added using ongotpointercapture, if any):
const para = document.querySelector("p");
para.ongotpointercapture = () => {
console.log("I've been captured!");
};
para.addEventListener("pointerdown", (event) => {
para.setPointerCapture(event.pointerId);
});
