Button to change slidebox index

[pbernasconi]

I just found the answer on this forum:

Setting slide index at controller initialization?

Before moving my angular app to ionic, I had hand-hacked up a navigation somewhat like the ionic slideBox. I was displaying a series of cruise ship deck images, and the routing was such that /decks/2 would take you to deck 2, /decks/3 to 3. I’ve switched it to using slideBox and it works very smoothly (unlike my version :P) but I have 2 things I can’t seem to make work. I’d love to update the history so that when a slide changes, the route updates like the old code. I want to be able to star…

For future reference, I used this line to set the slide number:

$scope.$broadcast('slideBox.setSlide', 0);
