Autoplay Resumption Issue on stopOn events

• [x] embla-carousel-autoplay
• [x] embla-carousel-docs (documentation)

Embla Carousel version

• latest

Describe the bug

• The stopOn events, such as stopOnInteraction and stopOnMouseEnter, are designed to halt the autoplay feature. However, once these events are triggered and autoplay is stopped, it does not resume after the event has ended.”

This means that when user interaction or mouse entry occurs (depending on the specific stopOn event), the autoplay feature stops as expected. But, the issue is that autoplay does not restart once the interaction is over or the mouse leaves the area

Steps to reproduce

1. add any stopOn event to autplay()
2. trigger the event

Expected behavior

• Autoplay should resume when interaction is over

@gioAdu did you set stopOnInteraction to false?

[gioAdu]

Oh, indeed i haven't. setting it to false fixed it. Thank you so much. P.S: any reason it's not false by default ?

@gioAdu I’m glad it worked.

P.S: any reason it's not false by default ?

I’m thinking that if a user interacts with the carousel, it’s probably because the user wants to check out its content. If the carousel starts playing just as the user is checking the carousel content out it might be annoying.
