[lutestringamend]

Is there anyway to make the carousel container transparent? It always forces a white background container like this. Thank you!

Hey there, @lutestringamend! Fancy seeing you here again. How's it going?

Yes, you can make the carousel container in the react-native-reanimated-carousel transparent by modifying the style prop passed to the ScrollViewGesture component within your Carousel component. Specifically, you can add a backgroundColor with a value of 'transparent' to the style array for the ScrollViewGesture component.

Here's how you can modify the style prop:

<ScrollViewGesture
  key={mode}
  size={size}
  translation={handlerOffset}
  style={[
    styles.container,
    {
      width: width || "100%",
      height: height || "100%",
      backgroundColor: 'transparent', // Add this line
    },
    style,
    vertical
      ? styles.itemsVertical
      : styles.itemsHorizontal,
  ]}
  testID={testID}
  onScrollStart={scrollViewGestureOnScrollStart}
  onScrollEnd={scrollViewGestureOnScrollEnd}
  onTouchBegin={scrollViewGestureOnTouchBegin}
  onTouchEnd={scrollViewGestureOnTouchEnd}
>

By adding backgroundColor: 'transparent' to the style array, you override any default background color (such as white) that might be applied to the ScrollViewGesture component, making it transparent.

Please note that the react-native-reanimated-carousel component does not have a default background color set in its styles. The provided styles only include properties for overflow in container, and flexDirection for itemsHorizontal and itemsVertical. There is no mention of backgroundColor or any related property in the styles definition.

If you're still experiencing issues, could you please provide more information about your setup? Specifically, the versions of react, react-native, react-native-reanimated, react-native-reanimated-carousel, and react-native-gesture-handler you're using, as well as the device and OS you're testing on. This will help in diagnosing the issue.

I've tried this solution but the issue persists. Anything else I should modify?

<GestureHandlerRootView>
        <CTX.Provider value={{ props, common: commonVariables }}>
          <ScrollViewGesture
            key={mode}
            size={size}
            translation={handlerOffset}
            style={[
              styles.container,
              {
                width: width || "100%",
                height: height || "100%",
              },
              style,
              vertical
                ? styles.itemsVertical
                : styles.itemsHorizontal,
              {
                backgroundColor: "transparent",
              },
            ]}
            testID={testID}
            onScrollBegin={scrollViewGestureOnScrollBegin}
            onScrollEnd={scrollViewGestureOnScrollEnd}
            onTouchBegin={scrollViewGestureOnTouchBegin}
            onTouchEnd={scrollViewGestureOnTouchEnd}
          >
            {data.map(renderLayout)}
          </ScrollViewGesture>
        </CTX.Provider>
      </GestureHandlerRootView>
