Can I use custom code in Webflow to fix the issue of a background video displaying the incorrect size?
Yes, you can use custom code in Webflow to fix the issue of a background video displaying the incorrect size. Here's how you can do it:
Identify the issue: Determine why the background video is displaying the incorrect size. It could be due to the video not filling the entire container, having black bars, or being stretched unnaturally.
Use custom code: Add custom code to your Webflow project to fix the issue. You can access the custom code editor by going to Project Settings > Custom Code. Here are a few approaches you can take:
a. CSS approach: Use CSS to modify the video's size and positioning. You can target the video element with its class or ID and adjust the width, height, object-fit, or other relevant properties to ensure it displays correctly.
b. JavaScript approach: Use JavaScript to programmatically manipulate the video's size and behavior. You can access the video element through its class or ID and modify its attributes or apply transformations to achieve the desired result.
Test and iterate: Once you've added the custom code, preview your website to see if the issue has been resolved. If not, go back to the code editor and make necessary adjustments until the video displays at the correct size.
Consider responsiveness: Keep in mind that you may need to adapt the custom code to ensure the background video remains responsive across different devices and screen sizes. You can use CSS media queries or JavaScript's responsive handling tools to achieve this.
Remember, always make a backup or use version control when editing your website's code, and familiarize yourself with Webflow's limitations and best practices for incorporating custom code.
