To create animated doughnut graphs on a Webflow website without writing code, you can take advantage of the built-in interactions and animations features. Follow the steps below to achieve this:
- Create a doughnut graph using HTML and CSS:
- Add a
div
element to your Webflow page and give it a class name, e.g. "doughnut-graph". - Apply the necessary styling for the doughnut graph using CSS. You can use a combination of background-color, border-radius, and border properties to create the visual representation of a doughnut graph. Make sure to set the width and height to match your desired size.
- Set up the initial state of the doughnut graph:
- With the "doughnut-graph" element selected, go to the "Interactions" panel in the right-hand sidebar.
- Click on the "+" icon to create a new interaction.
- Set the initial appearance of the doughnut graph by specifying its size, color, or any other desired properties.
- Set up the animation:
- In the "Interactions" panel, define a new trigger for the animation. For example, you could use a scroll trigger, a click trigger, or a hover trigger depending on when you want the animation to occur.
- Next, create a new action within the trigger, and choose the "Affect different element" option.
- Select the "doughnut-graph" element as the target, and choose the properties you want to animate. For example, you could animate the width property to make the graph expand or shrink, or you could animate the background color to show a change in value.
- Specify the animation duration, easing function, and any other desired settings.
- Preview and fine-tune the animation:
- Use the Webflow preview feature to test and make adjustments to the animation.
- Iterate the animation settings until you achieve the desired effect. You can adjust timings, delays, or explore other properties you might want to animate.
By following these steps, you can create animated doughnut graphs on your Webflow website without the need for coding knowledge. The built-in interactions and animation features provided by Webflow make it easy to bring your designs to life.
