What is causing the horizontal scroll issue when using a scale animation on a hero image in Webflow, and how can it be fixed without breaking a sticky container?
The horizontal scroll issue when using a scale animation on a hero image in Webflow is typically caused by the scaling effect expanding the dimensions of the image beyond the container. This creates a scroll bar as the browser tries to accommodate the larger space.
To fix this issue without breaking a sticky container, you can use the following approach:
Set the container to have "overflow: hidden" - This will hide any content that exceeds the container's dimensions. In this case, it will prevent the scroll bar from appearing when the image is scaled.
Wrap the hero image in a div - Create a new div and place the hero image inside it. This div will act as a wrapper for the image.
Set the wrapper div's position to relative - This will establish a new stacking context for the image and allow us to apply transformations to it without affecting other elements.
Apply the scale animation to the wrapper div - Instead of applying the scale animation directly to the hero image, apply it to the wrapper div. This will ensure that the scaling effect is contained within the wrapper div and does not cause horizontal scrolling.
Adjust the dimensions of the wrapper div - Make sure that the wrapper div's dimensions match the dimensions of the scaled image. This will prevent any overflow from occurring.
By following these steps, you should be able to fix the horizontal scroll issue caused by the scale animation on a hero image in Webflow, without breaking a sticky container.
