Description

Hi,

I would like to add the following functionality - to enable navigation thru slides on hover. Meaning - while the cursor is outside of the carousel navigation is paused and enabled on hover. On mouseleave navigation should be stopped. Practically, an opposite feature of autoplay="true" and autoplayHoverPause="true".

Can you please help me?

Thanks in advance! Jelena

Research direction
Review the current implementation of autoplayHoverPause in the main Carousel.vue component. Identify how the pause behavior is triggered on hover. To add an inverted mode, a new prop (e.g., autoplayHoverResume) should be introduced that toggles the logic: pause on mouseleave instead of mouseenter. Check the component's event handlers and the autoplay timer setup. Also verify if there are any existing tests or documentation for the autoplay feature. Since this issue is from 2018, ensure the code base has not drifted significantly.
