Pagers and progressive loading

[daltonrooney]

I'm putting together my first slideshow with Cycle2 and I already need pagers & progressive loading. I don't know if this constitutes an uproar, but I can imagine using this quite a bit. I have a workaround where I swap out a placeholder gif with the main image, but it would be really cool if Cycle2 supported this natively! :-)

yes,@daltonrooney is right.pages and progressive loading ,hash and progressive loading ,when I call "goto" methods it can be loading in progressive would be really cool if Cycle2 supported this.

I agree on that. It would be great to have this out of the box. In the meantime I'll try to patch something together that feels like the real thing.

OK, here is a quickfix that seems to do what we need:

It needs some testing, but I think this will do it unitl we get a native solution.

Merry Christmas,

I'd definitely like to see this as well.

@pepebe that looks like just basic image loader functionality. C2 can already wait on all images to load before initializing:

Managing pagers with a progressive loader is quiet tricky and is not yet supported.

[daltonrooney]

I use placeholder images in my markup and then use the cycle-before event to replace the placeholder on the transition. It looks something like this: https://gist.github.com/daltonrooney/4726327

That doesn't work with the Center plugin, btw. :-/

Sorry Mike (malsup) didn't mean for this to turn into a +1-a-thon :-S

[daltonrooney]

Take a look at the solution Malsup posted in another thread: #111 (comment)

This pretty much covers it for me. Because the entire slideshow is declared in the markup, the pager works just fine. I've already implemented this on a site and it seems pretty solid.

+1 for pager support!

This is a great inconvenience and a pretty major shortcoming in an otherwise great script. Is there an ETA on this? I build about 3-4 websites a month and could use this on almost every one of them.

+1 please MiIke !

Would also like this feature

[dreadicon]

+1 from me as well. Your app saved me from the massive headache of reinventing the wheel on image galleries. It was just a shame I couldn't complete the site to have pagers in addition to progressive loading. The site in question has up to 100 pages in a given gallery, and while they client was happy even without pagers, I felt like I didn't do the site justice.

[richorton]

+1! I would love this right now.

[bdgeorge]

+1 for the uproar, well you did ask for one ;-)
...and this would actually be very useful right now!
