above showing smooth scrolling but stops when item completes ,we need to continous scrolling
Here’s how to set up **continuous scrolling** properly:
### Updated Code
var swiper = new Swiper(".swiperslides", {
slidesPerView: 3,
spaceBetween: 30,
loop: true, // Enable infinite looping
speed: 10000, // Slow and smooth continuous scroll speed
allowTouchMove: false, // Disable manual swiping
loopAdditionalSlides: 35, // Ensure enough slides are available for looping
autoplay: {
delay: 0, // No delay for autoplay
disableOnInteraction: false, // Keep autoplay even after interaction
},
on: {
init: function (swiper) {
swiper.autoplay.running = true; // Force autoplay to run continuously
},
beforeInit: function (swiper) {
// Smooth continuous scrolling effect
swiper.wrapperEl.style.transitionTimingFunction = "linear";
},
slideChangeTransitionEnd: function (swiper) {
// Reset autoplay without interruption
swiper.autoplay.start();
},
},
breakpoints: {
0: {
slidesPerView: 1.2,
spaceBetween: 10,
},
1024: {
slidesPerView: 3,
spaceBetween: 30,
},
},
});### Key Adjustments:
1. **`speed`:** Adjusted to make the continuous scrolling speed smoother and slower.
2. **`loopAdditionalSlides`:** Ensures that there are enough slides to maintain the looping effect seamlessly.
3. **`autoplay` & `on` hooks:**
– Ensures autoplay keeps running without interruptions.
– Resets autoplay explicitly during slide transitions to prevent stops.
### Expected Behavior
The slider will scroll continuously without pauses or interruptions, creating a smooth and endless scrolling effect. If this doesn't fully achieve the behavior you need, we can explore `CSS-only` techniques for background-like scrolling or further customize the Swiper logic.
### Updated Code Without `loopAdditionalSlides`
var swiper = new Swiper(".swiperslides", {
slidesPerView: 3,
spaceBetween: 30,
speed: 10000, // Smooth continuous scrolling speed
allowTouchMove: false, // Disable manual swiping
autoplay: {
delay: 0, // No delay for autoplay
disableOnInteraction: false, // Keep autoplay running after interaction
},
on: {
beforeInit: function (swiper) {
// Smooth scrolling effect
swiper.wrapperEl.style.transitionTimingFunction = "linear";
},
init: function (swiper) {
// Dynamically duplicate slides to create a seamless loop
const totalSlides = swiper.slides.length;
for (let i = 0; i < totalSlides; i++) {
swiper.appendSlide(swiper.slides[i].outerHTML);
}
},
setTranslate: function (swiper, translate) {
const wrapperWidth = swiper.wrapperEl.scrollWidth; // Total width of all slides
const offset = wrapperWidth / 2; // Midpoint
if (translate <= -offset) {
swiper.setTranslate(0); // Reset to start
}
},
},
breakpoints: {
0: {
slidesPerView: 1.2,
spaceBetween: 10,
},
1024: {
slidesPerView: 3,
spaceBetween: 30,
},
},
});### Explanation:
1. **Duplicate Slides Dynamically (`init`):**
– During initialization, the slides are duplicated once, ensuring that the slider appears infinite without relying on `loopAdditionalSlides`.
2. **Reset on Translate (`setTranslate`):**
– When the translation reaches the middle of the total slide width, it resets the position to the start (`swiper.setTranslate(0)`).
– This creates a visual effect of endless scrolling without interruptions.
3. **Speed (`speed`):**
– The speed of the slider is set to ensure a smooth scrolling effect.
4. **Autoplay with Linear Timing Function:**
– Continuous autoplay ensures the slides keep moving smoothly without pausing.
### Advantages of This Approach:
– No dependency on `loopAdditionalSlides`.
– Works even if the number of slides changes dynamically.
– Seamless and infinite scrolling.
This approach will ensure smooth, continuous scrolling regardless of the number of slides or configuration changes.
### Updated Code and CSS
var swiper = new Swiper(".swiperslides", {
slidesPerView: 3,
spaceBetween: 30,
speed: 10000, // Smooth continuous scrolling speed
allowTouchMove: false, // Disable manual swiping
autoplay: {
delay: 0, // No delay for autoplay
disableOnInteraction: false, // Keep autoplay running after interaction
},
on: {
beforeInit: function (swiper) {
// Smooth scrolling effect
swiper.wrapperEl.style.transitionTimingFunction = "linear";
},
init: function (swiper) {
// Dynamically duplicate slides to create a seamless loop
const totalSlides = swiper.slides.length;
for (let i = 0; i < totalSlides; i++) {
swiper.appendSlide(swiper.slides[i].outerHTML);
}
},
setTranslate: function (swiper, translate) {
const wrapperWidth = swiper.wrapperEl.scrollWidth; // Total width of all slides
const offset = wrapperWidth / 2; // Midpoint
if (translate <= -offset) {
swiper.setTranslate(0); // Reset to start
}
},
},
breakpoints: {
0: {
slidesPerView: 1.2,
spaceBetween: 10,
},
1024: {
slidesPerView: 3,
spaceBetween: 30,
},
},
});### CSS for Uniform Slide Sizes
/* Enforce uniform slide sizes */
.swiperslides .swiper-slide {
width: 300px; /* Fixed width for each slide */
height: 200px; /* Fixed height for each slide */
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
background-color: #f4f4f4; /* Optional background color */
border: 1px solid #ddd; /* Optional border */
box-sizing: border-box;
}
/* Optional: Prevent content overflow in slides */
.swiperslides .swiper-slide > * {
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
text-align: center; /* Center align text */
}### Key Adjustments:
1. **Fixed Width and Height (`swiper-slide`):**
– Set a consistent `width` and `height` for all slides to ensure uniformity.
2. **Centering Content:**
– Use `display: flex` with `justify-content` and `align-items` to center the content of each slide vertically and horizontally.
3. **Overflow Management:**
– Prevent content from overflowing the slide dimensions by applying `max-width` and `max-height`.
4. **Responsive Breakpoints:**
– Adjust the dimensions in media queries if needed for smaller screens.
### Result:
All slides will have the same size, and the continuous scrolling effect will work seamlessly, providing a clean and consistent layout. You can customize the dimensions (`width` and `height`) based on your design requirements.
