I tried code by @dwehrmann and this works perfectly but if the slider has a button or link element we can’t access it.
Targeting the link/button using -
.yourClass{
pointer-events:auto;
}
This code was sometimes acting well but sometimes still unable to interact.
Btw, while trying out things I found a simple solution without code for the same issue.
Give a class name to parent slider element and in the style panel under Events option select the none option.
This will work the same way as CSS code making pointers none and allowing slider animation to work even on mouse hover .
And if you have button or link element then select the button class make the cursor pointer and Events to Auto, stops the animation on hovering over the button/link only.
Hope this helps.
