Option Focus Fix
by Lunatic
Option Focus Fix corrects a focus bug that Mojang introduced in 1.19.4, where an option stays highlighted after the cursor has left it.
What it does
In 1.19.4 an option set can keep its focus after a click, even once the pointer moves away, and this mod resets that focus so it follows the hover state again. It is a Fabric mod released under the MIT License, and it is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker. Files cover 16 release versions, 1.19.4 – 26.1.1, and the latest build is 1.6.0 for 26.1.1, published on 2026-04-01.
Key features
Hover focus restored
Options lose their focus once the pointer leaves them, matching the behavior players had before the regression.
Reliable focus handling
A later rewrite added a new method for handling option focus, which makes the fix behave more consistently.
Tab navigation trade-off
The fix also removes the ability to tab between options, a feature that few players are likely to use.

What the author says
In 1.19.4, Mojang added yet another Bug. When you click an option, it will set focused. But for some reason it doesn't get unfocused whenever you stop hovering over it. This Mod fixes this.
