I don’t think it’s fair to say it’s “the plugin”. This will occur anytime an element uses a single sprite image and positioning on hover. So it’s really a combination of the broadly applied rule in Epik’s style.css line 149:
a,
a:visited,
button,
input[type=”button”],
input[type=”submit”],
.btn {
-moz-transition: all 0.1s ease-in-out;
-webkit-transition: all 0.1s ease-in-out;
transition: all 0.1s ease-in-out;
}
I found that this rule applied to the slider’s elements works to mitigate the motion:
.flex-direction-nav li a, .flex-control-nav li a {
-moz-transition: 0s;
-webkit-transition: 0s;
transition: 0s;
}
This allows for the slider’s intended hover states.
