Same Images in Carousel not possible?

[McFlemchSoda]

Hi, I was using your carousel package and when I add multiple identical images to it, it looks like it binds the position to the image? I get an infinite loop if I add 2 of the same images and the position indicator does not change. It works fine if all images are different.

Hope that makes any sense and you can fix it.

The carousel doesn't care about the content of its children. Position is not bind in any way to the children content. Saying that, no matter if you use same image or different ones, it doesn't makes a difference for the control.

Its known that in Xamarin Android images are not handled in the right way, so i advice you to use FFImageLoading.

Please, review your code, you must be doing something wrong.
