Pause/Resume on multiple tips

[neyo]

Some time ago I mentioned about having a the ability to pause/resume so that JS could be fired between tips (https://github.com/zurb/joyride/issues/20). It's great you guys listened and I hoped it'd save the day for me. However, as the tone my suggest this hasn't been quite plain sailing.

What i've found is if I define an array with more than one tip in it, the pausing just doesn't seem to work. When I leave it to one, the pause/resume appears to work as intended. Initially I thought I was doing something wrong, so I tried a variety of ways to format the array, starting with the obvious [1,2] to trying to add spaces, semicolons, etc etc.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug? I assume the fact you allow an array to be specified means you intended for the tour to be perhaps stopped and resume multiple times throughout?

For the record, I was specifying the option like this:

pauseAfter : [1,2],

Calling a resume like this:

setTimeout(function () { $(".ui-autocomplete").css('display', 'none'); // Example of JS I want to fire mid-tour... $(window).joyride('resume'); }, 1000);

Could someone investigate this, and perhaps providing a working example where a tour is paused and resume successfully, whilst firing JS in between?

Thanks guys, Steve

I have also run into this issue. The documentation claims that pauserAfter takes an array ( specifically: '//array of indexes where to pause the tour after') but I cannot get pause to function correctly on anything with more than one number passed in.

I've tried hard coding '[1, 2]' as well as creating an array beforehand and just passing that in.

Is this a bug, or am I missing something key?

I'm also having the same problem, it appears that the bug isn't multiple pause indices, it seems to only happen if they are multiple contiguous indices ([1, 5, 10] works fine but [1, 2, 3] doesn't).

I issued a pull request for this bug: https://github.com/zurb/joyride/pull/179

I also experienced some undesirable behavior with the pause_after setting. I believe the issue is caused by the fact that the pre_step_callback does not fire until joyride is resumed, so there doesn't seem to be a way to pause, run callback, resume. If anyone can share their experience of how a tip could be paused to allow code to run while paused, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Was this resolved? We are facing this same problem right now.

Hi @prcongithub, unfortunately there is not much activity for this plugin at the moment. I would like to ask you to check out the PR that was mentioned above (#179) and see if that works for you.
