Centering Thumbs

A gallery with a thumbnail strip where the chosen thumb scrolls itself to the centre and arrow keys walk the frames.

React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.

What you can change

  • the frames through shots: title, place and hue
  • the gallery label through label, the strip label through stripLabel, the thumb label template through thumbLabel and the block role through roleDescription
  • the accent colour through accent

A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ

How do I add Centering Thumbs with Cursor or Claude Code?
Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
What does Centering Thumbs depend on?
No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
What can I change in Centering Thumbs?
Adapt: the frames through shots: title, place and hue; the gallery label through label, the strip label through stripLabel, the thumb label template through thumbLabel and the block role through roleDescription; the accent colour through accent. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-carousel-013-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; block:"nearest" in scrollIntoView — otherwise the whole page is pulled to centre; the border on the selected thumb: dimming the neighbours is barely visible on a phone.
Is Centering Thumbs free?
Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

For developers

Technical notes

The component is self-contained: one file, zero dependencies, the palette in the local --vibeui-carousel-013-* variables. A client component ("use client") — the position is held by useState. There are usually more thumbnails than fit the width, so the selected one is brought to the centre by a scrollIntoView({block: "nearest", inline: "center"}) call: block: "nearest" keeps the browser from pulling the whole page. The thumbnails are real buttons labelled "Frame N", and the selected one is marked with aria-current and a border rather than brightness alone: dimming the neighbours is barely noticeable on a small screen.
