Animation with set_currentItemIndex

[Orest]

Guys,
When I use oRotator.set_currentItemIndex(newIndex); there is no animation. Is it possible to have an animation with currentItemIndex method?

Thanks!

Hi Orest,
The feature is on your ToDo list for Q1 2011 and it will be part of the beta and official Q1 2011 release, scheduled for the middle of February and the beginning of March, accordingly.

Were you able to  implement this?

Hi Orest,

Yes, indeed this feature is already implemented. You can take advantage of it through the use of a second parameter of boolean type to the set_currentItemIndex method:

rotator.set_currentItemIndex(index[, useAnimation]);

Therefore if you wish to change the current item index to 2 with animation:

rotator.set_currentItemIndex(2, true)

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

I am using the Q1 2011 release and I am still not seen any animation when using set_currentItemIndex with the second parameter, ie

oRotator.set_currentItemIndex(index,

 

true);

however I do see animation if I use shownext(direction);

any suggestions?

Hi David,

Could you, please, elaborate more on the issue that you are experiencing? For example, what setup are you using, are there any JavaScript errors on the page, are there related issues that may be influencing this one, what exactly is happening when the issue occurs, etc.? I need more information in order to track down the cause of this incorrect behavior and find a solution for it.
Finally, I would suggest that you open a support ticket and attach a sample project there that demonstrates the issue at hand. Thus we will be able to come back to you in a timely fashion.
