Events

List of events the plugin triggers :

Event name Description
imagesCompare:initialised This event is fired when init is done
imagesCompare:changed This event is fired when the value of visible front element is changed
imagesCompare:resized This event is fired when a resize window event has been received and treated

Example listening to change event

// important call data('imagesCompare') to get the real object and not the jquery one var test = $('#myImageCompare').imagesCompare().data('imagesCompare');  test.on('imagesCompare:changed', function (event) {     console.log('change');     console.log(event);     if (event.ratio < 0.4) {         console.log('We see more than half of the back image');     }     if (event.ratio > 0.6) {         console.log('We see more than half of the front image');     }      if (event.ratio <= 0) {         console.log('We see completely back image');     }      if (event.ratio >= 1) {         console.log('We see completely front image');     } });

Changing value

You can change value of visible front part via code :

// important call data('imagesCompare') to get the real object and not the jquery one var test = $('#myImageCompare').imagesCompare().data('imagesCompare'); test.setValue(0);

Changing value with animation

You can change value of visible front part via code and request an animation :

// important call data('imagesCompare') to get the real object and not the jquery one var test = $('#myImageCompare').imagesCompare().data('imagesCompare');  // here we pass true in second argument to say we want animation test.setValue(0, true);  // you can change some settings via the plugin settings (see plugin settings section) // you can too override duration and easing for one call : // test.setValue(ratio, animate, duration, easing);
