Research direction
The issue appears to be a bug in the drag offset calculation when dragging slides. Check the drag event handlers in the carousel component (likely in src/Carousel.vue or similar). The offset resets when the drag exceeds a certain threshold (middle of slides page). Look for code that updates the current offset during drag and examine the logic for clamping or resetting. Review the GIF linked in the issue to understand the exact behavior. The maintainers have not responded yet.
