Add offset?

[jamesryan-dev]

Has any1 been able to add an offset so isInView triggers slightly before or after element leaves viewport?

[svarup]

With offset to preloading the image when it's getting close to entering the viewport. To do this, you can now add a data-offset attribute to your target element. For example:

<img data-offset="300">

also support visible area using third parameter on on, one event for example:

$('div').on('inview', function (event, visible, topOrBottomOrBoth) {
 if (visible == true) {
    // element is now visible in the viewport
    if (topOrBottomOrBoth == 'top') {
      // top part of element is visible
    } else if (topOrBottomOrBoth == 'bottom') {
      // bottom part of element is visible
    } else {
      // whole part of element is visible
    }
  } else {
    // element has gone out of viewport
  }
});
