Unclicked hints remain when navigating to new page.

[fulento]

Page1 I am loading hints via data-hint and manually calling ngIntroService.addHints(). Everything displays correctly. In order to get these to disappear with no interaction from user I have to use .hideHints() on location change.

If I navigate away from this page and try to manually load hints on Page2 by using addHints() those hints load in the object when I check dev tools but they don't display. If I call showHints() it shows the hints from Page1 in the same place that they would have displayed on Page1 overlay but on Page2.

I've tried, .clear(), .refresh(), .exit() on location change. The hints object can be cleared but any time I call showHints() only the first hints will load without hard refreshing the entire page.

Is there a workaround for this?

Hello!
from what I remember about the first issue I think it's ok, because I don't like hardcoded behavious like that, it's wiser to give the control over the component, so developers don't have to struggle to override this 😂

Now about the second issue,
I don't use hints on my projects, but I'll look on a fix if needed or a workaround.
I'll provide the plnkr ASAP.

Hello @fulento i got a working example for you.

http://plnkr.co/edit/BeOD9H?p=preview

but on the way i found a bug, that has been fixed on intro.js@2.5.0

but i got a workaround for you, you'll need to upgrade intro.js to 2.5.0.
then run the method, on your $locationStart

 ngIntroService.intro.removeHints();

i'll work to update this component right now.

btw thanks for reporting.

it's on going right now

as soon as my PR is accepted on definedtypes i'll merge my PR #121 and update the current version to 3.3.0.

meanwhile you may use the workaround.

[fulento]

amazing! thank you for such a quick turnaround!
