Hi @alejandrogiubel,

Thank you for bringing this to my attention! I will look into this issue soon and provide an update or implement a fix in the next update.

In the meantime, could you please share the code you’ve written to implement this? It would help me better understand the specific scenario and reproduce the issue accurately.

Thanks and regards,
Nikhil

Hi @nixrajput , here is the example code
https://github.com/alejandrogiubel/flutter_carousel_demo

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_carousel_widget/flutter_carousel_widget.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: ThemeData(
        colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(seedColor: Colors.deepPurple),
        useMaterial3: true,
      ),
      home: const MyHomePage(title: 'Flutter Demo Home Page'),
    );
  }
}

class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  const MyHomePage({super.key, required this.title});

  final String title;

  @override
  State<MyHomePage> createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  final controller = ExpandableCarouselController();
  List<ElementCard> elemets = [
    ElementCard(
      color: Colors.red,
      text: 'Element 0',
    ),
  ];

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Center(

                    ];
                    controller.animateToPage(elemets.length - 1);
                  },

              },
