Description

In RStudio, there's a nice slide navigator in the preview pane and the arrows flip between slides:

In VS Code and Positron, it would be nice to

  • have the same navigator
  • have the same behavior for the arrows (currently, they don't seem to do anything)

For these IDEs, the only ways to navigate between slides right now are to use the buttons or the Quarto slide navigator.

Research direction

Start by locating the VS Code extension's preview-pane implementation and its existing slide-navigation buttons, then compare their behavior with the screenshots and the Quarto slide navigator. Done means the preview provides the requested navigator and the arrows move between slides in VS Code and Positron.
