How can I create a separate layer of static text that remains fixed while my images rotate behind it using the slider in Webflow?
To create a separate layer of static text that remains fixed while your images rotate behind it using the slider in Webflow, you can follow these steps:
Create a new section: To start, add a new section to your Webflow project by clicking on the "+" icon in the left sidebar and selecting "Section." This will serve as the container for the slider and the static text layer.
Add a slider: Within the newly created section, drag and drop a slider component from the elements panel onto the canvas. The slider will now automatically fill the entire section.
Add images to the slider: Double-click the slider component to enter the slider settings panel. Here, you can add images by clicking on the "Add Image" button or dragging and dropping them into the panel. You can also customize the transition speed and style of the slider.
Create a new div block: Next, add a new div block within the slider component by selecting "Div Block" from the add panel or right-clicking within the slider component and choosing "Add Element."
Insert static text: Double-click the newly created div block to enter its settings panel. From here, you can add a text element by clicking on the "Text" button or dragging and dropping it into the div block. Customize the text content, font, size, color, and alignment according to your preferences.
Position the div block: To make the static text layer fixed while the images rotate behind it, you need to adjust the position and styling of the div block. In the div block's settings panel, go to the Position section and choose "Fixed" from the Position dropdown menu. This will ensure that the div block remains in a fixed position on the page, regardless of scrolling or other movements.
Adjust layering: By default, the div block will be positioned on top of the slider images. To make sure the images appear behind the static text layer, you can adjust the layering. In the div block's settings panel, go to the Display section and set the z-index value to a number lower than the slider component. This will place the div block behind the slider images.
Customize the design: You can further customize the design of the static text layer and the slider section by adjusting the style properties such as background color, text spacing, padding, and margin.
Once you've completed these steps, you will have a separate layer of static text that remains fixed while your images rotate behind it using the slider in Webflow.
