React-joyride: stepIndex doesn't appear to work

Created on 22 Apr 2017 · 8Comments · Source: gilbarbara/react-joyride

Setting stepIndex to, say, 3 in the demo doesn't seem to affect the starting step. Checking react devtools show that Joyride recognizes its props.stepIndex as 3, but seems to have no effect.

There is a check in componentWillReceiveProps, but in componentDidMount start method is called without the stepIndex parameter

Maybe this issue should be left opened until it's fixed or implemented in v2

Sorry, but I'm not sure exactly what you're saying. Can you give a bit of an example with some code?

@IanVS - he says that the stepIndex parameter isn't working - setting it to whatever value does not have effect.

This will be fixed in V2 with controlled/uncontrolled tours

It seems that stepIndex use is fixed by changing && to || at line 176 and commenting out line 222, but this may break other scenarios

On clicking next button, the toggleTooltip method is called twice, once with next action and second time with jump action. Executing the later one doesn't open tooltip.

In V2 the stepIndex parameter is ignored on tour start. Is there a way to start on a specific step without patching the src?
