hi rad,
i just notice on another website (see secure note) that the x-slider element suffers from the same time problem. fades are way to fast! i set it to 5000ms but it looks more like 1000ms.
please fix this sooner than later.
thanks a lot! kai

Hey Kai,

What happens is the fade is very subtle in the beginning and the end of the animation so you perceive it like the slide has not started fading yet. I timed it that when 5000ms is set, it will be perceived as more or less 2000s. But technically, the fade animation already has started. Setting to 10000s, the noticeable fade animation is like 7000s.

In the video below, you’ll see that technically, the slide already started animating when I clicked to the next slide. But, I didn’t see the change in color in the first 1 or 2 seconds of the animation.

I’ll add this to my colleagues report. For now, please try increasing the animation speed.

Thanks.
