I would like to make a carousel slider similar to what you see on the new design for Youtube.com and pages like this: https://plus.google.com/discover/w29saB
Any recommendations on how to build this, or Jquery plugins that facilitate this.
I've tried itemSlide() but I don't know how to get the CSS so that it renders inside the container DIV properly. Also Itemslide doesn't give the arrows to scroll to the next page.
Other carousel plugins I've looked at even with their responsive options, make you specify the number of items to fit on a page. I would like that to be determined by css.
Update I've gotten itemSlide() to render in the container div however I still need to be able to add the arrows so that it scrolls when clicked. I figure getting the buttons to overlay is a matter of the right CSS. Getting the scroll to work when clicked is likely something specific to the itemSlide api that I should be able to figure out once the arrows are overlaid properly. itemSlide() as carousel slider library: http://itemslide.github.io/
Why not try a DIV inside a DIV. Have the overlap as hidden in css. Arrows can be div buttons that move the inner div "X" number of pixels in a given direction to match the block sizes in the carousel stile div.
Once you get the arrows overlaid you can use the disable_clicktoslide option of the library so that clicking on slides doesn't move to them.
To make the arrows work, call the functions next() and previous() on the carousel object.
Also you can use the function getActiveIndex() to detect where the user is on the carousel.
Good luck!

I have a section with horizontal slides in Elementor. I want to add a blur effect when you scroll between the slides. Is there a simple way to do this? There are different event triggers such as "onLeave", "afterLoad" etc where you can added custom code, so this may be an option, or can I simply add some CSS? Im a bit lost as to what I have to target to make this work, if anyone knows what code I can add and where that would be a huge help. sections have anchors "section1" & "section2", and Ive also added section classes "one" & "two".
you can use animate.css and add its classes to your slides in show or hide
I've got a little application that shows one photo in the middle of the page, some right/left buttons for changing the photo, and a flexslider at the bottom of the page having thumbnails of all available photos. Depending on the width of the browser, 4 to 10 thumbnails are visible at a time.
I want to synchronize the slider with the main photo. I've turned animation off. And when I click on something in the slider, the main photo updates. I've got this working.
But when I change which photo is shown using the right/left arrows, I want to update the slider so that the thumbnail for the main photo is shown, as in, move the slider right or left. I tried just manually changing (increment or decrement) the slider.animatingTo value, but that doesn't update the slider on the screen.
I've also tried, by modifying the jquery.flexslider.js file, putting one of the update methods onto the slider object (essentially making it public). But I'm not sure what the right function to call would be.
Any help would really be appreciated.
I found the solution:
slider.flexAnimate(slider.getTarget("prev"));
and
slider.flexAnimate(slider.getTarget("next"));
I wish to build a shelf of content much like on Netflix where when you hover over arrows on either end the shelf scrolls at a continuous speed. Ideally, I would also like to make it so when you click the arrows it scrolls a chunk along, so you have the option to click like made to get through a shelf quickly.
This will be using lazy loading so you don't need to worry about repeating content, but obviously it won't have a set width (other then the outside container being 100% with overflow scroll.
Also, this needs to be actually scrollable, so it will work on tablets/phones.
I have no idea here to start so any directions would be great.
Thanks,
Jake!

UPDATE: Check out the Smooth Div Scroll jQuery plugin. It slides continuously through the image, you can hover the mouse on the div and manually scroll back- and forward.
Original answer:
I might be off with that, but check out these two plugins:
jQuery Coverflow plugin or the jQuery Imageflow plugin
I think the keyword you are looking for is "flow" and there are multiple flow plugins for jQuery. Hope this helps.
Best regards,

I want a menu hidden at the top of the page, that slides down after clicking a button so it shifts the other content bellow it down. What I have is the hidden menu and I use jQuery functions slideDown() and slideUp() to toggle it. The problem is that eg. on iPhone the slide is not fluent, so I would like to use some acceleration.
I wanted to just add -webkit-trasnform: translate3d as described here, but this seems not working with jQuery slide functions. Also I tried to use jQuery('.menu').animate({height: ..}) but it didn't work also (I think jQuery toggle uses the same). So I found out, that probably the transform3d works only for moving elements by adjusting its coordingates (left, top ..) but not width and height.
I found out this jQuery plugin https://github.com/benbarnett/jQuery-Animate-Enhanced , that should help accelerate width and height changes also, but it didn't work at all in my case.
So I managed to move the menu by adjusting the Top property and adding translate3d, which finally makes the menu move fluently, but now I cannot force the content bellow it to move down when the menu slides - if the menu has position:relative and is moved out of the screen, there is still a hole of its height at the top of the content. If it has position:absolute , it doesn't influence content bellow. If position:static, Top: property has no influence.
Am I missing something or what is the "recommended" way to implement this ? You can see the current implementation on http://www.huureenkerstboom.nl (please downsize your browser window to see the mobile implementation).
I am trying to create a banner for the top of page, but haven't found any code yet that combines all of what I need. I have included an illustration of what I'm trying to do.
A) I have 4 buttons (each an image file), two to either side default image in the center. This is the main/inactive state.
All of the buttons would have similar animation when hovered over. For the sake of this question, I only illustrated two of the buttons.
B) If you hover over Box 1 (top left), the button would change and text and lines would slide out from left to right. Also, the center image would change. And, to make things extra challenging, the left button and center image would link to Page 1. When you move away, the text slides back to the left, and the image returns to the default state in A. The blue box would behave the same way, linking to Page 2.
C) In a similar manner, if you hover over Box 4 (bottom right), the button would change and text and lines would slide out from right to left. Also, the center image would change. The right button and center image would link to Page 4. When you move away, the text slides back to the right, and the image returns to the default state in A. The green box would behave in the same manner, linking to Page 3.
The closest I've found is this: jQuery image slide on hover effect (horizontal) I was thinking that if I used the static images of all (A) as a background image, maybe I could create a transparent sprite, with only the active version of the hovered button and the center image, to slide left or right on hover.
I can see how the above example might would work for Boxes 1 and 3 (top left and right) and give the illusion of the lines sliding out as the image slides either left or right, but I'm not sure how it would work for Boxes 2 and 4.
Am I on the right track, or am I asking for way more than what's possible in JQuery? I'd be fine with loosing the animated text (I could just make them part of the hover images), but the buttons and center image need to change on hover, and they need to link to a page.
I've made a widget in jQuery that was confused with flash before. I think you need to breakdown each element of your widget into discrete pieces. You are making a new widget. There will be no methods doing what you want. You will have to use the .animate() method explained here. http://api.jquery.com/animate/ You will be animating one CSS class to another CSS class using the .animate() method.
This page has a good primer on the animate method.
http://viralpatel.net/blogs/2010/03/understanding-jquery-animate-function.html
Here's what I would do:
I would make the HTML of the page you want.
I would create CSS of each style of box that you will have.
I would have all the same CSS directives on every box that will
animate. I have found the animate method more agreeable if all CSS
that is to be computed has the same parameters but with different
values.
I would use full resolution images in the 4 outer boxes.
I would animate the div containing the image, not the image itself.
I would make the image fill the div dynamically so that when I
changed the size of the div the image would be a gimmie.
I would work in firebug testing out different commands and see how
they behave. This is critical. The interactive javascript console
is your friend.
This is a big task... when you're done this will be a nice feather in your cap! Maybe after that you could turn it into a jQuery plugin for others to use!
I decided to mess around with this for a bit, here is what I whipped up so far. No links as yet, but for a half hour I don't feel too bad about that :)
