Virtual Slides Height Recalculation Issue in Swiper.js

Virtual Slides in Swiper.js: Container Height Fails to Recalculate After Dynamic Content Change

Problem Statement

When using Swiper.js with the Virtual Slides module in vertical mode, the container height does not adjust after the content of a slide changes post‑initialization.

Constraints

The instance is configured with virtual: true, direction: 'vertical', and slidesPerView: 'auto'. The issue appears in Swiper 8.x and 9.x.

Questions

1. Does Swiper’s Virtual Slides module recalculate the container height automatically when the inner content of a rendered slide changes?

2. If not, is there a documented event or method that should be called to trigger a height update?

3. Does the problem persist when using slidesPerView: 1 instead of 'auto'?
