@Input() taskOnUpdateDuration

function Customized callback function to be used to determine the new duration value that an animation takes to complete the next cycle. This callback function will be executed if pendingUpdates property is set on true and the current cycle of marquee movement has been finished.

return: string

Note: If taskOnUpdateDuration( ) function is not supplied, the duration value is considered.

possible values

foo = (): string => {
  // Some imaginative lines about the new duration of your marquee
  // ...
  return "90ms";
};
