Keyboard navigation with Carousel

[Sisco]

Hi Armin,

Would it be possible to add to the carousel a keyboard navigation (left/right arrows on keyboard) ? Or is there already a way to do this ? Cheers

Not really easily possible, sorry!

Hmm it should be somehow possible with keydown, or?
At least when using fullscreen slider and carousel addon – the currently shown carousel would be in an active row then.

Maybe with a switch function:
if keydown case 37 > function for scroll to previous slide (same that is called when clicking in the left half of the carousel)
if keydown case 39 > function for scroll to next slide (same that is called when clicking in the right half of the carousel)

Hey maximilianm!

This is a good idea. Thank you for mentioning.

It might be possible with keydown but you need to give it a shot yourself.

To really integrate it as a stable feature – we need to apply it in one of the upcoming versions of Laytheme.

You might be right that with a very specific function you can get it to work.

Best is you try it and let us know how it is going.

All the best!

Hi Dustin,

right now we are developing a new version of LayTheme. I am not sure if this is already integrated. But it is on our list of features.

All the best :-D

Hi - has this feature been added? Can you use keyboard navigation with Carousel or Fullscreen slider add on?

[mariusjopen]

Dear @Sisco
the carousel slider does not have it. But the Fullscreen Slider does.

Best!

Hi!

Is it possible now after almost 6 years?
If not, please implement it.
Many thanks and kind regards.

sure man just update the carousel addon

since many years it was possible already but just with the "sliding" transition type.
last week i made it work with the fading transition too
