Focal Slider

Focal Slider is an image slideshow using <canvas> that allows you to set a focal point on each slide so when the image is scaled to fill its container, the most important part is always visible.

Usage

Create a container element.

<div id="slider"></div>

Initialise the slider.

var slider = new FocalSlider({
	container: '#slider',	// Any valid queryString
	hideArrows: false,		// Default: false
	autoPlay: false,		// Default: true
	slideDuration: 4000,	// Milliseconds. Default: 5000
	slides: [ 
		{	src: 'images/keas.jpg', 	focus: 'bottom-left'	}, 
		{	src: 'images/tiki.jpg', 	focus: 'top-middle'		}, 
		{	src: 'images/jetboat.jpg', 	focus: 'middle-right'	}, 
		{	src: 'images/library.jpg', 	focus: 'top-left'		}, 
		{	src: 'images/paraski.jpg', 	focus: 'middle' 		}, 
		{	src: 'images/ski.jpg', 		focus: 'top-left'		} 
	]
});
