How to use it

JS – Syntax

$(document).simplePresentation({
    autoplay: boolean,
    loop: boolean,
    intervalTime: integer,
    preloading: boolean,
    transitionFct: function
});

JS – Example with a preset transition

var transitionFunction = function(elt, source, transitionTime) {
    Transition.opacity(elt, source, transitionTime);
};

$(document).simplePresentation({
    autoplay: false,
    loop: false,
    intervalTime: 2000,
    preloading: false,
    transitionFct: transitionFunction
});

JS – Example with a transition we write

var transitionFunction = function(elt, source, transitionTime) {
    elt.css("opacity", "0");

    // If we're going to the next page
    if (source == "RIGHT") {
        elt.css("marginLeft", "100%");
        elt.animate({
            "opacity": 1,
            "marginLeft": "0px" 
        }, transitionTime);
    } else {
        elt.css("marginRight", "100%");
        elt.animate({
            "opacity": 1,
            "marginRight": "0px" 
        }, transitionTime);
    }
};

$presentation = $(document).simplePresentation({
    autoplay: false,
    loop: false,
    intervalTime: 4000,
    preloading: true,
    transitionFct: transitionFunction
});
