cycle / pager transition bug?

cycle / pager transition bug?

I'm trying to use Cycle to create a slideshow of headlines on my website.

The pager appears to have a bug. If you click on two pager buttons in rapid succession, such that the second is clicked before the transition triggered by the first is complete, then the transition effect gets very messy. It basically fast-forwards to the end of the current effect before beginning the new effect.

This isn't really a problem with transitions like Fade. But with some transitions, like Slides, it's quite ugly and jarring.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? Can anyone suggest a way of dealing with it? Cycle developers, are you considering fixing this bug?

IMHO the simplest solution would be to disable pager-buttons while transitions are in-progress. There may be a way to do this just by using onBefore/onAfter callbacks.

Thanks!
