Is it posible to save direction in jCarousel (autoplay) plugin?

Question

Currently in jCarousel auto play example , when you click the next or previous button it will continue to its current state, (scroll from right to left). what i want is, is it possible when you click next it will save its direction (scrolling from left to right).

Answer 1

From what I can see the jCarousel plugin doesn't support this. So there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do this, without rewriting the plugin

I tried a quick hack without rewriting (external timer, manually calling carousel.prev() and similar ideas) but the internals of the plugin keept getting in the way.

Check my site
