CSS Variables
The picker highlight and fade can be customized using CSS variables on ion-picker. Developers can customize the individual appearance of ion-picker-column-options by targeting them directly and using host level styling.
Picker in Modal
Pickers can be displayed inside of overlays, such as ion-modal to create a picker experience with confirmation or cancellation buttons.
ConsoleConsole messages will appear here when logged from the example above.Accessibility
Screen Readers
Picker supports navigation using a screen reader by implementing the slider role on each Picker Column. The following gestures can be used to navigate the Picker.
| Gesture | Function |
|---|---|
| Swipe Left | Move focus to the previous Picker Column. |
| Swipe Right | Move focus to the next Picker Column. |
| Swipe Up | Select the next option in the Picker Column. |
| Swipe Down | Select the previous option in the Picker Column. |
| Double Tap and Slide Up/Down | Adjust the selected option in the Picker Column. Can be used as an alternative to swiping up and down. |
The Swipe Up and Swipe Down gestures rely on the correct key events being synthesized as noted on the slider documentation. Chromium-based browsers do not synthesize keyboard events correctly, but the "Double Tap and Slide Up/Down" gesture can be used as an alternative until this has been implemented in Chromium-based browsers.
Keyboard Navigation
Each Picker Column can be navigated using the keyboard when focused.
| Key | Function |
|---|---|
ArrowUp | Scroll to the previous option. |
ArrowDown | Scroll to the next option. |
PageUp | Scroll up by more than one option. |
PageDown | Scroll down by more than one option. |
Home | Scroll to the first option. |
End | Scroll to the last option. |
