Hide dots and pagination

Version

• react-native-swiper v1.5.13
• react-native: 0.50.3

Problem

I have 4 Views inside a Swiper component and showing 4 Dot, one Dot for each View.

I would like to keep 4 Views, but only show 3 Dot. 4th View should not be a visible element of the Pagination but should still be part of the Swiper component. Pagination should be hidden on the 4th View as well.

Example

4 Views but only 3 Dot

1st View

Pagination is visible and has 3 Dots.

• 1st Dot is active.
• 2nd Dot is inactive.
• 3rd Dot is inactive.
• 4th Dot is not visible.

2nd View

Pagination is visible and has 3 Dots.

• 1st Dot is inactive.
• 2nd Dot is active.
• 3rd Dot is inactive.
• 4th Dot is not visible.

3rd View

Pagination is visible and has 3 Dots.

• 1st Dot is inactive.
• 2nd Dot is inactive.
• 3rd Dot is active.
• 4th Dot is not visible.

4th View

Pagination is not visible.

• 1st Dot is inactive.
• 2nd Dot is inactive.
• 3rd Dot is inactive.
• 4th Dot is not visible.

Research

It seems like this number is responsible for the number of visible Dot components. Here it is being used to build the Dot components.

Summary

Is there any better approach to achieve what i’m asking for without touching these lines?

Maybe a hidden feature i’m missing to hide / remove Dots and Pagination for a given View index?

@mianusmankhalid This is my code, hope it can help you.

` export default class IntroSwipe extends Component { state = { showPaginate: true, }

indexChanged = (index) => {
    if (index === 2) {
        this.setState({ showPaginate: false });
    } else {
        this.setState({ showPaginate: true });
    }
}

render() {
    return (
        <Swiper
            loop={false}
            activeDotStyle={{ backgroundColor: 'transparent', borderWidth: 1, borderColor: '#fff' }}
            onIndexChanged={index => this.indexChanged(index)}
            showsPagination={this.state.showPaginate}
        >
            <View><Text>Section one</Text></View>

            <View><Text>Section two</Text></View>

            <View><Text>Section three</Text></View>
        </Swiper>
    );
}

} `

It should be like this.

1st View Pagination is visible and has 3 Dots.

1st Dot is active. 2nd Dot is inactive. 3rd Dot is inactive. 4th Dot is not visible.

2nd View Pagination is visible and has 3 Dots.

1st Dot is inactive. 2nd Dot is active. 3rd Dot is inactive. 4th Dot is not visible.

3rd View Pagination is visible and has 3 Dots. When select 3rd View it should slide to left

1st Dot is not visible. 2nd Dot is inactive. 3rd Dot is active. 4th Dot is inactive.

4th View Pagination is visible and has 3 Dots. 1st Dot is not visible. 2nd Dot is inactive. 3rd Dot is inactive. 4th Dot is active.
