Visible
– the navigator’s buttons are visible. -
VisibleOnHover
– the navigator’s buttons are visible only when hovering over the carousel.
The following example depicts the code to show/hide the navigators in the carousel.

Play button
Show or hide the play button
In the carousel, autoPlay
actions have been controlled by using the showPlayButton
property in the user interface. When you enable this property, the slide transitions are controlled using this play and pause button. This property depends on the buttonsVisibility
property. The following example depicts the code to show the play button in the carousel.
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { ButtonModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-buttons'
import { CarouselModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations'
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
@Component({
imports: [ ButtonModule, CarouselModule],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-root",
template: `<!-- To Render Carousel. -->
