Can you stop automatic slideshow within a carousel?

[iMatt]

Is it possible to have a carousel display a set of images without them scrolling? I want the user to click on the navigation buttons to display the images.

Set the 'pause time' to 0

Hi there
Can I stop and start a slide show using a button ?

[BaconFries]

Yes it is possible you can use events to start/stop the Carousel or a Slideshow.

[paul.maechler]

Great to hear.
Can you explain me how I do that ?
I gave my best but it did not work for me....

[Pablo]

Step 1
Add a button, or any other object that support events

Step 2
Add an 'onclick' event

Step 3
Set the action to media start/stop/pause

Step 4
Select the slideshow in the target

Which page? Where is the button?

[BaconFries]

@Ali The url is the page and the button is to the top right which looks like a pause button above the pdf icon



If viewing on your mobile you will need to change it to desktop mode to see

@paul it is always best to provide a "Demo" project the .wbs as it can then be loaded into the software and see exactly what you have done as a url doesn't really help.

The code attached to the pause button is this:

Code: Select all

<a href="#" onclick="PauseAudio('SlideShowR');PauseAudio('SlideShowL');return false;"><div id="Icon3"><i class="fa fa-pause-circle"></i></div></a>

PauseAudio does not look right to me ...

[BaconFries]

As you are applying a onclick event you may also need to apply the following to the button return true

Code: Select all

<a href="#" onclick="PauseAudio('SlideShowR');PauseAudio('SlideShowL');return false;return true;"><div id="Icon3"><i class="fa fa-pause-circle"></i></div></a>

Didn't get it....

How can I attach the .wbs file here ?

The download link does not work for me.

However, 'PauseAudio' indicates that you have selected the wrong event action.
For the slideshow you will need to use 'Slideshow Next' or 'Slideshow Previous'

[paul.maechler]

I like to stop the slideshow. Not forward/backward.

Link is Ok for me. What country are you connecting from ?
We use GeoBlocking for some services.

[Pablo]

I'm sorry, there is no event to stop the slideshow. This is only available for the carousel object.

[paul.maechler]

OK. Thank you for your support.
