Slider with left/right arrows

Question

Could you tell me how can I create right/left arrows for the Ionic slider component?

Demo: Stackblitz

Note: please see the home.html page

.html

<ion-slides  [pager]="true" [slidesPerView]="2">
        <ion-slide>
            <h1>Slide 1</h1>
        </ion-slide>
        <ion-slide>
            <h1>Slide 2</h1>
        </ion-slide>
        <ion-slide>
            <h1>Slide 3</h1>
        </ion-slide>
    </ion-slides>

Answer 1

You can create two buttons.

• A back button:

<button (click)="this.Slides.slidePrev()" class="backBtn"> <ion-icon name="arrow-back"></ion-icon> </button>

• A next Button:

<button (click)="this.Slides.slideNext()" class="nextBtn"> <ion-icon name="arrow-forward"> </ion-icon> </button>

Note: This is just a pseudo code (click)="this.Slides.slidePrev()"

You'll then need to position them with your css and you should be good to go :)

CSS:

.backBtn{
   position: absolute;
   left: 20vw;
   top: 40vh;
   width: 15vw;
   height: 15vw;
   border-radius: 50%;
   border: none;
   background: red;
}

.nextBtn{
   position: absolute;
   right: 20vw;
   top: 40vh;
   width: 15vw;
   height: 15vw;
   border-radius: 50%;
   border: none;
   background: green;
}
