I would love to see the Auto Scroll extension added to the Dynamic Slider.
This would greatly expand the potential use cases, with only a small addition of code.
So far I have used keyframe animations for this, but that is always a bit fiddly, not as smooth, and also quite restrictive. You simply cannot access many integrated options with this approach.
We have Autoplay, which basically mimics a user interaction at a set time (interval). It slides (for the specified number of slides), but does not scroll consistently/smoothly.
When I see the transition value from your screenshot, it suggests that you wanted to create exactly this effect. 40 seconds as a duration of one sliding action seems a bit high to me.
This slider must be veeery slow
Or you are sliding all slides at once.
I think the main point is the speed parameter and its calculation, also without the necessity to define the total amount of slides. This static value always has to match with your query settings.
As a forced workaround, its fine. But it’s not a real solution imo.
Especially when a client is in control and has no clue about the dependencies.
Auto Scroll is set and forget.
I’m really happy to see that it already has changed to planned.
The UI, in most parts, is already there.
PS:
Thanks for sharing your workaround though, hadn’t thought of that before.
