Yes, there is a more direct way to create a gallery with a colored box that appears below an image when hovered over in Webflow without using jQuery.
You can achieve this effect by utilizing Webflow's built-in interactions and the "Hover" trigger. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to create this effect:
Add an image element and a div element below it in the gallery container.
Style the div element with the desired background color, width, and height. You can also add additional styling such as border-radius if needed.
Select the div element and go to the interactions panel. Click on the "+" button to create a new interaction.
Set the trigger to "Hover" and choose the "Hover In" option.
Click on the "+" button next to the "Affect" section to add a new animation.
Choose the "Show" option from the dropdown menu and select the image element as the target to show.
Adjust the animation options as needed. For example, you can choose to fade in the image, scale it up, or apply any other desired effect.
Click on the "+" button next to the "Duration" section to set the desired animation duration.
Repeat steps 4-8 to create a second interaction, but this time set the trigger to "Hover Out" and choose the "Hide" option to hide the image element.
Preview and test the gallery. The colored box should now appear below the image when hovered over, without the need for jQuery.
Creating interactive elements like this not only enhances the user experience but also improves the overall SEO of your website as it increases engagement and encourages visitors to spend more time exploring your content.
