Original Source

{{APIRef("WebVR API")}}{{Deprecated_Header}}{{Non-standard_Header}}

The display read-only property of the {{domxref("VRDisplayEvent")}} interface returns the {{domxref("VRDisplay")}} associated with this event.

[!NOTE] This property was part of the old WebVR API. It has been superseded by the WebXR Device API.

Value

A {{domxref("VRDisplay")}} object.

Examples

js
window.addEventListener("vrdisplaypresentchange", (e) => {
  console.log(
    `Display ${e.display.displayId} presentation has changed. Reason given: ${e.reason}.`,
  );
});

Specifications

This property was part of the old WebVR API that has been superseded by the WebXR Device API. It is no longer on track to becoming a standard.

Until all browsers have implemented the new WebXR APIs, it is recommended to rely on frameworks, like A-Frame, Babylon.js, or Three.js, or a polyfill, to develop WebXR applications that will work across all browsers. Read Meta's Porting from WebVR to WebXR guide for more information.
