Swiper - Advanced option for writing your own JS Swiper initialisation parameters.
Mike Temby
There are quite a few request for various Swiper related options to be added to Slider but I think the real solution is to allow advanced users to write their own JS Swiper Init object, or at least add to it.
Swiper has so many parameters it is not reasonable for all of them to be available via the UI, but providing an advanced field for configuring your own initialisation object properties would provide access to all possible config options.

Similar features have been requested before. Perhaps, it's better to comment and vote on them:

Michel Yes, I've seen quite a few.. I created this request specifically because there are a lot of swiper related requests, but most them are asking for one or another specific parameter to be supported.
I have voted on several of them and also commented with the above suggestion as well, however having a clearly defined feature request specifically for Swiper init object, is in my opinion better than making that comment in half a dozen other requests for one other other parameter. It gets lost in the comments - and also possibly dilutes what the original requester wanted
Aside from that, adding support for one parameter via the UI is a different concept and for a different user base really - so a separate request is best, in my view.

Mike Temby I'm just pointing out that there are requests with more votes, which are more likely to be noticed by the developers. It might be beneficial to comment your idea (which is great, by the way) on other similar and trending requests. This way, other users following those requests can endorse yours, making your request more relevant and spreading it among more users more quickly.

This would be very handy. I'm currently doing this by overriding params using JS but to be able to config this before it renders would be gold.
