Auto start not working

[aimingxu]

I want to auto start the tour after page load without click a button or link. Here is my code: ngAfterContentInit(){ setTimeout(function(){ this.hintService.initialize(); }, 4000); } I got ERROR TypeError: Cannot read property 'initialize' of undefined.

@aimingxu you just losing a this context . There are 2 ways to avoid it

1. bind this to some variable (old style)

   var self = this;
   setTimeout(function(){
   self.hintService.initialize();
   }, 4000);
   }

2. And ES6 one is using lambda(arrow)

   setTimeout(() => {
   this.hintService.initialize();
   }, 4000);
   }
