Slick: Can't move to items when centerMode is enabled and the slide count is less than slidesToShow

[rickdmer]

See an example of this here:

This used to work in an older version (1.3):

What do you mean by "Can't move to items when centerMode is enabled"? The first example seems to work perfectly

Hi @ahmadalfy , sorry for the poor wording. What I meant is, when you have less items (4 in this case) than the "slidesToShow" value (5 in this case), the slider is completely stationary and ignores slickNext/slickPrev/etc. There is no way to see the 4th item.

It appears that at some point in the development of Slick, there was a change to make it so some functionality is disabled (slickNext, slickPrev, etc) when the slide count is less than "slidesToShow" option. I can see cases where this would be ideal, but when using centerMode (as in the first example), it prevents you from moving to items.

Edit: It appears this is an issue that a lot of people are having but doesn't appear to have been addressed. I just found this ticket https://github.com/kenwheeler/slick/issues/1630 -- which links to a lot of other tickets with the same issue.

This is related to #1245 and seems to be related to #2244 . It's all due to the fact that the slider incorrectly handles cases of slidesToShow > {actual-number-of-slides} . By the way, I believe it has nothing to do with centerMode setting. I have hacked a 1.5.9 version for my own usage fixing this behaviour, if anyone is interested: githug gist.
