"Auto" setting for "slidesToShow"

Sometimes the number of slides to show can’t be explicitly set - for example when showing a number of logos and you want the slide to fill up the width of the screen, whatever that might be.

I tried enabling variableWidth, but that too seems to depend on slidesToShow when infinite is enabled as sometimes there is a blank space before the next X number of slides are displayed. I also have autoplay enabled if that makes any difference.

Basically, if there was a setting auto for slidesToShow, then the slides should fill the width of the container and if infinite is enabled then they should repeat seamlessly.

Hey @pavsid … sorry but this makes no sense;

If you don’t have enough slides to fill a carousel; then do your users a favour and don’t load the carousel from the server… waste of bandwidth and time… the point of a carousel is to display TOO many of something…

or you can and just duplicate your slides and piss people off even more?

Was this closed because this feature request was implemented? Otherwise it should be re-opened.

This would be a very useful feature. Honestly, I couldn’t care less how many slides appear at once. I simply want the carousel to operate as a content “overflow.” It makes no sense to constantly watch for container size changes and recreating the carousel over and over again. Also, what if the slides are variable-width? It should just resize smoothly as the container size changes, and let the container be responsible for the responsive breakpoints.
