Animations

Fade animation

In Carousel, two built-in animations are provided for slide transitions. You can disable animation using the animationEffect property. By default, Slide animation is applied for the transition between slides.

The following demo depicts the example for fade animation,

index.jsx
index.tsx
import { CarouselComponent, CarouselItemsDirective, CarouselItemDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations";
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
const App = () => {
    return (<div className='control-container'>
      <CarouselComponent animationEffect="Fade">
        <CarouselItemsDirective>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/cardinal.png" alt="cardinal" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Cardinal</figcaption></figure>'/>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/hunei.png" alt="kingfisher" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Kingfisher</figcaption></figure>'/>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/costa-rica.png" alt="keel-billed-toucan" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Keel-billed-toucan</figcaption></figure>'/>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/kaohsiung.png" alt="yellow-warbler" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Yellow-warbler</figcaption></figure>'/>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/bee-eater.png" alt="bee-eater" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Bee-eater</figcaption></figure>'/>
        </CarouselItemsDirective>
      </CarouselComponent>
    </div>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('element'));
root.render(<App />);
import { CarouselComponent, CarouselItemsDirective, CarouselItemDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations";
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";

 const App = () => {
  return (
    <div className='control-container'>
      <CarouselComponent animationEffect="Fade">
        <CarouselItemsDirective>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/cardinal.png" alt="cardinal" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Cardinal</figcaption></figure>' />
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/hunei.png" alt="kingfisher" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Kingfisher</figcaption></figure>' />
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/costa-rica.png" alt="keel-billed-toucan" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Keel-billed-toucan</figcaption></figure>' />
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/kaohsiung.png" alt="yellow-warbler" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Yellow-warbler</figcaption></figure>' />

        </CarouselItemsDirective>
      </CarouselComponent>
    </div>
  );
}

const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('element'));
root.render(<App />);

Custom animation

In Carousel, you can use customized animation effects for slide transitions using the Custom option of the animationEffect property and apply custom animation css via cssClass property.

The following demo depicts the example for parallax custom animation,

index.jsx
index.tsx
import { CarouselComponent, CarouselItemsDirective, CarouselItemDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations";
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
const App = () => {
    return (<div className='control-container'>
        <CarouselComponent animationEffect="Custom" cssClass="parallax">
          <CarouselItemsDirective>
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/cardinal.png" alt="cardinal" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Cardinal</figcaption></figure>'/>
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/hunei.png" alt="kingfisher" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Kingfisher</figcaption></figure>'/>
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/costa-rica.png" alt="keel-billed-toucan" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Keel-billed-toucan</figcaption></figure>'/>
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/kaohsiung.png" alt="yellow-warbler" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Yellow-warbler</figcaption></figure>'/>
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/bee-eater.png" alt="bee-eater" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Bee-eater</figcaption></figure>'/>
          </CarouselItemsDirective>
        </CarouselComponent>
      </div>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('element'));
root.render(<App />);
import { CarouselComponent, CarouselItemsDirective, CarouselItemDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations";
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";

 const App = () => {
    return (
      <div className='control-container'>
        <CarouselComponent animationEffect= "Custom" cssClass= "parallax">
          <CarouselItemsDirective>
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/cardinal.png" alt="cardinal" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Cardinal</figcaption></figure>' />
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/hunei.png" alt="kingfisher" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Kingfisher</figcaption></figure>' />
            <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/costa-rica.png" alt="keel-billed-toucan" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Keel-billed-toucan</figcaption></figure>' />

          </CarouselItemsDirective>
        </CarouselComponent>
      </div>
    );
}

const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('element'));
root.render(<App />);

Intervals between slides

Using the items property, you can set different intervals for each item to transition between slides. The default interval is 5000 ms (5 seconds). The following example depicts the code for setting the different intervals between each item.

index.jsx
index.tsx
import { CarouselComponent, CarouselItemsDirective, CarouselItemDirective, } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations";
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
const App = () => {
    return (<div className='control-container'>
      <CarouselComponent>
        <CarouselItemsDirective>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/cardinal.png" alt="cardinal" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Cardinal</figcaption></figure>' interval={3000}/>
          <CarouselItemDirective template='<figure class="img-container"><img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/hunei.png" alt="kingfisher" style="height:100%;width:100%;" /><figcaption class="img-caption">Kingfisher</figcaption></figure>' interval={1000}/>

        </CarouselItemsDirective>
      </CarouselComponent>
    </div>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('element'));
root.render(<App />);
import {
  CarouselComponent,
  CarouselItemsDirective,
  CarouselItemDirective,
} from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations";
import * as React from "react";

        </CarouselItemsDirective>
      </CarouselComponent>
    </div>
  );
}

const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('element'));
root.render(<App />);

Note: Interval property can accept value in terms of milliseconds.

Auto play slides

In the carousel, all slides transitions are performed continuously after the specified or default intervals. You can enable or disable the auto slide transition using the autoPlay property. The following example depicts the code to enable or disable the auto slide transitions.

index.jsx
index.tsx
import { CarouselComponent, CarouselItemsDirective, CarouselItemDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations";

        </CarouselItemsDirective>
      </CarouselComponent>
    </div>
  );
}

const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('element'));
root.render(<App />);

Slide changing events

Using the slideChanging or slideChanged events of the Carousel component, you can perform sample end customization while the carousel items are switched.

The following demo depicts the example for carousel events,

index.jsx
index.tsx
import { CarouselComponent, CarouselItemsDirective, CarouselItemDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-navigations';
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
const App = () => {
    const onSlideChanging = (args) => {
        console.log(args.currentSlide); // You can customize the slide before changing.
    };
    const onSlideChanged = (args) => {
        console.log(args.currentSlide); // You can customize the slide after changed.
    };
    return (<div className='control-container'>

Swipe Modes

In the carousel, the swipeMode property allows specifying whether the slide transition should occur while performing swiping via touch or mouse. The slide swiping is enabled or disabled using the bitwise operator.

The following are the different swipe modes available in the carousel:

CarouselSwipeMode.Touch - Allows the user to slide the slides using touch actions.
CarouselSwipeMode.Mouse - Allows the user to slide the slides using mouse actions.
CarouselSwipeMode.Touch & CarouselSwipeMode.Mouse - Allows the user to slide the slides using both touch and mouse actions.
~CarouselSwipeMode.Touch & ~CarouselSwipeMode.Mouse - Disables both touch and mouse actions.
