Autoplay jump parameter

Feature request is related to

• embla-carousel-autoplay

Is your feature request related to an issue?

There’s no way to utilize the jump parameter that embla.scrollNext() and embla.scrollPrev() accepts because these are invoked internally in the autoplay plugin.

Describe the solution you’d like

Add a boolean jump option that determines the default behaviour - if transitions should jump or not.

const options = { loop: true }
const embla = EmblaCarousel(emblaNode, options, Autoplay({ jump: true }))

Also allow to override the default jump behaviour using the autoplay API:

const embla = EmblaCarousel(emblaNode, options, Autoplay({ jump: true })) // autoplay will jump when it starts here

embla.plugins().autoplay.play(false) // <-- override defaultJump and start animating

Hi @th-km,

Sorry for the late reply, I’m just back from a trip.

Not a problem. We all have a life 😉.

I just released this feature with v7.0.2. Give it a go if you want and let me know if it works as expected. Additionally, if you have a moment, I would very much appreciate if you could check out the documentation additions and see if the explanations make sense to you or if you would like to amend something there:

• Autoplay jump option
• Autoplay jump parameter for play method

Thanks and cheers!

Best, David
