Is there a way to apply one animation to multiple objects or create a single animation for an entire class in Webflow instead of building the same animation for different elements?

Yes, in Webflow, you can apply one animation to multiple objects or create a single animation for an entire class using the capabilities of the Webflow interactions feature. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Select the elements you want to animate: You can do this by clicking on each element while holding the Shift key, or you can select a class to which these elements belong.

  2. Open the Interactions panel: You can find this panel in the right sidebar of the Webflow Designer.

  3. Create a new animation: Click on the "+" button in the Interactions panel and select "New animation."

  4. Define the animation: In the animation timeline, you can set the duration, delay, easing, and other properties for the animation.

  5. Add initial and final states: You can add different animation steps in the timeline by clicking on the "+" button next to the selected element. This allows you to create complex animations with multiple interaction steps.

  6. Apply the animation to multiple elements: To apply the animation to multiple elements, select the desired elements or the class they belong to, and click on the "+" button in the interaction step timeline. Then, choose the animation you created in the dropdown list.

  7. Preview and refine the animation: Use the preview button to see how the animation looks and make any necessary adjustments to the animations, timings, or other properties.

By following these steps, you can create a single animation and apply it to multiple objects or an entire class in Webflow, saving you time and effort in building repetitive animations for different elements.
