Carousel updates

Post by splash21 » Sun Feb 16, 2014 9:53 pm

In between updating the docs, this quick update removes a couple of debug 'puts' that were writing to the message box. It also adds a sticky mode to the carousel (to make it act more like a menu) and the code has been improved slightly to remove a bounce often seen after clockwise rotation. V1.23 is available on the web site.

Thanks for the update! I've selected Sticky for my control - it works about half the time (when it does it's perfect). The rest of the time it works as before, zipping through the images. That is on the device.

V1.24 - more carousel tweaking

Post by splash21 » Mon Feb 17, 2014 6:30 pm

I couldn't replicate the behavior seen in the video - until I tried it on a device - without sticky mode! I should have re-checked how the control was performing on actual devices sooner - it looked pretty drastic and it was pretty hard to even get the control spinning. I've re-tweaked the control and tested it on an iPhone4, iPad3 and fairly low powered android tablet (480x800). Seems to be running acceptably well in all of them, but it would be great to hear how things are looking on other devices and if more options are required for fine tuning.

V1.24 is ready for download with an improved sticky mode - hopefully this version will work as intended on desktop and device.
