Been looking at the carousel components. There is one issue and one nice to have. These can be seen on the examples.
1. This one looks like a bug. When you move to the left, you get to the 'end' where you can't move left anymore but there are still images to the left. You just can't click on them. Same if you move to the right. If you displayed a distinct list of images that occur only once (as you would if you laoded them from a database), you can never click on those couple of items. They seem to be unusable.
2. This one woul be a nice to have. If you move to the left, why should you come to a stop? Couldn't it just scroll back around to the right? So you end up with a circle of items that you can just keep moving through in one direction rather than a distinct list which has a start and end.

Got the same issue as you have.
It seems that there are always two spare dataitems on the left, and two dataitems on the right that you can't select.

Hello Jeff and NS,
The issue that Jeff is talking about is due to the fact that the RadCarouselPanel tries to fill all slots on the path - for example, if the RadCarouselPanel has only 5 children and it is displaying all 5 and you try to move its items it will ignore the command because there are no more items to display. This limitation will be addressed in the upcoming releases.
The feature that Jeff is proposing is on our to do list and it will be introduced in a future release.
Thank you both for the great feedback.
All the best,
