Position button over a link in bootstrap carousel

I would like to add a top-right button on each slide that would be over the carousel-control link.

How can I do that?

Below you can see that the buttons are under the carousel-control

.myButton {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    z-index: 999; /*not working */
}

.carousel {
  height: 400px;
}

.carousel-inner {
   width: 100%; /*this must stay */
   height: 100%; /*this must stay */
   /* z-index: 1; //this make the carousel-control unclickable */
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>


<div id="carousel-example-generic" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
  <!-- Indicators -->
  <ol class="carousel-indicators">
    <li data-target="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
    <li data-target="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide-to="1"></li>
    <li data-target="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide-to="2"></li>
  </ol>

  <!-- Wrapper for slides -->
  <div class="carousel-inner" role="listbox">
    <div class="item active text-center">
      <button type="button" class="myButton">Btn</button>
      Slide 1
    </div>
    <div class="item text-center">
      <button type="button" class="myButton">Btn</button>
      Slide 2
    </div>
    <div class="item text-center">
      <button type="button" class="myButton">Btn</button>
      Slide 3
    </div>
  </div>

  <!-- Controls -->
  <a class="left carousel-control" href="#carousel-example-generic" role="button" data-slide="prev">
    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
    <span class="sr-only">Previous</span>
  </a>
  <a class="right carousel-control" href="#carousel-example-generic" role="button" data-slide="next">
    <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right" aria-hidden="true"></span>
    <span class="sr-only">Next</span>
  </a>
</div>

u can set inner carousels z-index to higher than link to bring it to front then to make links clickable set the inner carousels "pointer-events" to none this will make the carousel to transfer the click event to the element behind it, then to make the button clickable you should set buttons pointer-events to auto, remember you should set pointer-events property of every children of carousel to auto.

jsfiddle demo

.myButton {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    z-index: 999; /*not working */
    pointer-events: auto;
}

.carousel {
    height: 400px;
}

.carousel-inner {
    pointer-events: none;
    z-index:10;
    width: 100%; /*this must stay */
    height: 100%; /*this must stay */
}

I know your feeling and it also happen to me, until this moment i don't have the ideal answer. so i made and alternate solution, which to make the carousel height smaller.

i know my alternate solution will not fully answered your question, but hopefully it will help you in some way.

  .myButton{
  position:absolute;
  right:0px
  }
  .carousel-control{
  margin: auto auto;
  height:100px;
  width:100px;
  background:#ff0000 !important;
  }

Z-index only works for positioned elements on the same level as each other. you should set it on carousel-inner class

 .carousel-inner{
z-index:999;
}

Edit: Try like this

<html>
<link type="text/css" id="dark-mode" rel="stylesheet" href="">
<style type="text/css" id="dark-mode-custom-style"></style>
<head>
    <style>
        .carousel-inner .item .myButton {
            position: absolute;
            top: 0;
            right: 0;

        }

        .carousel {
            height: 400px;
        }

        .carousel-inner {
            width: 100%; /*this must stay */
            height: 100%; /*this must stay */
        }

        .carousel-inner .item {
            z-index: 9999; /*not working */
        }

        .carousel-inner .carousel-control {
            z-index: 990 !important;
        }
    </style>

Place button tag with class "myButton" before the div tag with class "item active text-center". I changed it for Btn1 in the below code.

 <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
      <title></title>
    </head>

    <style type="text/css">
      .myButton {
        position: absolute;
        top: 0;
        right: 0;
        z-index: 999; /*not working */
    }

    .carousel {
      height: 400px;
    }

.carousel-inner {
   width: 100%; /*this must stay */
   height: 100%; /*this must stay */
   /* z-index: 1; //this make the carousel-control unclickable */
}
    </style>
    <body>
