Description

The Mousetrap Add-On connects keyboard shortcuts to actions of the Revolution Slider, linking key combinations to behaviors such as navigating between slides, pausing playback, triggering layers, or activating specific transitions. Built on top of the Mousetrap.js library, the component registers the listeners directly in the slider and exposes the mappings in the base plugin editor, allowing each project to have its own key configuration without manual code.

Key Features

  • Key mapping in the editor
    Defines shortcuts per slider by associating keys with actions within the base plugin interface.
  • Combinations with modifiers
    Supports sequences with Ctrl, Shift, Alt, and double keys to create more elaborate bindings.
  • Keyboard navigation control
    Switches slides, pauses autoplay, and restarts the presentation via dedicated keys.
  • Triggering layers and events
    Activates layers, animations, and JavaScript callbacks when the configured combination is pressed.
  • Project-isolated configuration
    Each slider keeps its own set of shortcuts, without interfering with other sliders on the page.
