jor_carouselManipulation 11.0

[fredphoesh]

Hello Jordan,

First off, thanks for creating things like this for WB... much appreciated.

I have a carousel on my website but the problem is, when someone clicks on a video to play, the carousel moves on and the video disappears but can be heard still playing! I want a click to play to stop the carousel and heard your extension can do that... but I cannot figure it out.

I added your extension to the same page as the existing carousel (placed to the side away from other elements) I have fiddled with all parameters that mention pause... but cant get it to do anything, and I am guessing I am not doing the basics correctly.

Any chance you could give me a very basic how-to? I have read the PDF that comes with it, and it does not help me.

Thank you!
Mark.

Hi Jordan

I had a play with this but could not seem to get much to work

would you have a demo version of this I can load into WB please?

I am a bit lost with all the options, so a demo with a lot of options turned on would be great.

I tend to get lost a lot LOL

Cheers

Hi again Jordan

Just an FYI

Sorry to annoy you with this, (I have fixed my issue) however the demo for this ext and for your Font Ext (mirro image etc) do not function for me at least.

Every thing in WB looks fine, there is the warning about opening an older verison, screen items look good, it publishes ok but in IE10 and Firefox the only thing to work is the slider itself, (the browser is displaying it as per WB) and nothing at all changes in the fonts with your other extension, the browsers are displaying it exactly as in WB.

Sorry can not tell you much more, I did go in and change settings etc but nothing I did made any difference.

Win 7 32 bit
WB 9.1.3

Cheers

hello bburgess,

sorry to respond this late to your question
I did not see a notification mail on this quest, or I missed it:(
anyway …

hope your still around …
I have no problem using both extensions here ?
are you able to make jor_fonteffect work on a blank project ?
do you have a live example of it not working, so I can see what's happening ?

Jordan, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this extension and your continued updates.

I wonder if this feature is possible:

A client recently showed me a website with Flow Slider. This slider has the capability to slide objects one at a time while keeping the sequence. So if the frame contains box 1,2,3,4, the next slide would be short and still reveal box 2,3,4 and now also box 5. So only the furthest left box disappears and a new box enters. I hope I explained this well enough. An example is seen on the American Pickers page in the link slider just below the large slideshow. http://antiquearchaeology.com/

Do you think something like this is possible in Carousel? I appreciate you looking at this.

[jordan]

hello protectourlands,

that is not possible with the carousel
too much would have to be changed to make that possible, that's more like an interactive conveyer belt you want
you could try using a jQuery slider with jor_carouselManipulation, that would make a slide through the frames?
but even then, the frame stops on full frame not in between, and it won't run circular
so, no that is not possible with the carousel, sorry:(

[protectourlands]

No worries Jordan. Just thought I would check before I use this one. Thank you so much for checking.

Is there any way to assign events to the arrows and /or pagination buttons so that when a video is used and currently playing, as soon as the user attempts to slide with the arrow or pagination button the video is stopped or paused?

I have a carousel with several videos. I'm trying to get them to auto stop upon transition attempts.

[jordan]

hi protectourlands,

that's not a carousel question but a video question
do you have some type of external control over the video player ?
if yes then it may be possible, certainly not easy, but at least then you have a start point
without it all you could try is to create a hide/unhide on frame enter type of action
which I doubt would work cross-browser on any type of video
so, not easy to achieve in any case

Hi Jordan

It's the standard WB HTML5 video player. If I make a shape object and assign an event: onclick > Media stop, the video stops. So I was thinking - if this event could be added to the slider arrows instead, the video would stop playing before sliding away through the onclick of the arrow. The arrow would cause both the slide and the video stop at the same time. I'm trying to avoid depending on the user to remember to turn the video off before changing the frame.

So essentially this would be the ability to add events to the carousel navigation. What do you think?
