After introducing Shadow DOM in IONIC most of us searching and finding a way to modify style of IONIC components. Fortunately they have exposed many css4 variables to modify the components but we can't access the html elements inside the Shadow DOM.
How to update style using exposed css4 variables?
ion-button{ --border-radius: 2px; --background: #3A2926; --color: #DBE0A5; }
How to update style of properties that are not exposed?
In the above screenshot we cannot modify the properties like cursor, z-index, box-sizing etc. from outside the Shadow DOM using normal CSS like following style.
ion-button button{ cursor: crosshair; z-index: 2; box-sizing: content-box; }
How to update above properties
We can use Shadow Part selector to update the these properties.
ion-button{ &::part(native) { cursor: crosshair; z-index: 2; box-sizing: content-box; } }
I hope this will help many developers.
