# Draggable Background

A jQuery plugin to make background images draggable.

**NOTE:** I don't plan to maintain this library anymore since I've moved on
from jQuery. There seems to be requests for supporting different options
for background-size or different units for background-position. After looking
at the css spec for these properties, it seems unmaintainable to support every
possible configuration, so I would encourage you to fork this and shape it to
your specific needs.

## Configuration


Option
Type
Known Values
Default Value
Description


bound
Boolean
true|false
true
Whether dragging is bounded by the edges of the image.


axis
String
x|y

If specified, restrict dragging along x or y axis.


done
Function


Called when dragging is stopped by mouseup, touchup, or mouseleave.

## Usage
```js
// default options
$('div').backgroundDraggable();

// only draggable in the x direction, and dragging is not bounded by the image
$('div').backgroundDraggable({ bound: false, axis: 'x' });

// disable draggable background
$('div').backgroundDraggable('disable');

// callback when drag complete
$('div').backgroundDraggable({
done: function() {
backgroundPosition = $('div').css('background-position');
console.log(backgroundPosition);
}
});
```

## Demo

## Support
IE9+. Only `background-size` value of `auto` (default) and `cover` are supported. `background-position` must be absolute pixels. There will be bugs if you use `center` for percentages.
