To create a pop-up window with buttons in Webflow that allows users to scroll through overflowing content by clicking on an arrow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a div block: Start by creating a div block that will serve as your pop-up window. Give it a class name to style it later.

  2. Style the div block: Customize the appearance of the div block by adding a background color, border radius, and any other styles you desire. You can also set the desired height and width for your pop-up window.

  3. Add content to the div block: Inside the div block, add the content that you want to display in your pop-up window. This could be text, images, videos, or any other elements you want. Make sure the content is longer than the height of the div block so that it overflows.

  4. Set up scrolling: To enable scrolling within the div block, you'll need to enable overflow and set a fixed height. Select the div block, go to the Styles panel, and set the overflow to "auto" or "scroll". Then, set the height property to a fixed value, such as 400px. This will create a scrollable area within the div block.

  5. Add arrow buttons: Create two buttons, one for scrolling up and one for scrolling down. You can use the button element or a div block styled as a button. Position these buttons either inside or outside the div block, depending on your design preference.

  6. Scroll trigger interactions: To make the arrow buttons scroll the content, you need to set up scroll trigger interactions. Select the "Scroll into view" trigger for each button and choose the direction (up or down) you want the content to scroll.

  7. Add the scroll animation: Set the scroll animation to scroll the div block by a certain percent or pixels. You can adjust the scroll speed and easing for a smoother effect.

  8. Test and refine: Preview your website and test the pop-up window functionality. If needed, adjust the scroll animation or other styles to achieve the desired effect.

By following these steps, you should be able to create a pop-up window with buttons in Webflow that allows users to scroll through overflowing content by clicking on an arrow. Remember to customize the design and layout according to your preferences and brand guidelines.
