Yes, in Webflow, you can create animations that start when an element scrolls into view and stop when it goes out of the screen by using the "Scroll into view" trigger and the "Scroll out of view" trigger. Here's how you can achieve this:

Select the element you want to animate and open the Interactions panel.
Click on the "+" button next to the "Trigger" option and choose "Scroll into view".
Adjust the settings for the "Scroll into view" trigger. You can set the offset, which determines when the animation starts as the element enters the viewport.
Next, click on the "+" button below the first trigger and choose "Scroll out of view".
Adjust the settings for the "Scroll out of view" trigger. You can set the offset, which determines when the animation stops as the element leaves the viewport.
Now, you can add animations to your element using the "Start" and "End" states. Configure the desired animation properties, such as opacity, transform, or position, to start from the "Start" state and end at the "End" state.
You can preview and fine-tune your animation by scrolling in the Designer or using the Preview mode.

By using the "Scroll into view" and "Scroll out of view" triggers in Webflow, you can create dynamic and interactive animations that engage users as they scroll through your website.

To summarize, here's how you can make an animation in Webflow start when it scrolls into view and stop when it goes out of the screen:

Select the element to animate and open the Interactions panel.
Add a "Scroll into view" trigger and adjust the offset.
Add a "Scroll out of view" trigger and adjust the offset.
Configure the animations in the "Start" and "End" states.
Preview and fine-tune the animation.
