:indeterminate

Targets form elements whose state is neither 'on' nor 'off' (like a checkbox that's been mixed by JavaScript, or a radio group where nothing is selected yet).

Quick example

input[type='checkbox']:indeterminate {
  /* Styles a 'half-checked' or 'mixed' checkbox */
  opacity: 0.5;
  outline: 2px dashed orange;
}
