To create a hover interaction in Webflow where buttons stay pressed as long as the user is on a specific section of the page, you can follow these steps:
- Select the button element that you want to apply the hover interaction to.
- In the right panel, click on the "+" button next to the Interactions section to add a new interaction.
- In the interaction settings panel, choose the "Hover" trigger for the interaction.
- Click on the "+" button next to the "While hovering" action to add a new action.
- Choose the "Start animation" action from the list of available actions.
- From the dropdown menu that appears, select the animation that you want to apply to the button when it is hovered over.
- Click on the "+" button next to the "While not hovering" action to add a new action.
- Choose the "Start animation" action again.
- From the dropdown menu that appears, select an animation that will revert the button back to its original state when it is no longer being hovered over.
- Now, you need to set up the trigger that will control when the button is in the pressed state. To do this, you can use a scroll trigger.
- Scroll down to the "Scroll interaction triggers" section in the interaction settings panel and click on the "+" button to add a new scroll trigger.
- Choose the "While scrolling in view" option from the list of trigger options.
- In the settings for the scroll trigger, select the section of the page where you want the button to stay pressed.
- Under the "While scrolling in view" action settings, choose the animation that you want to apply to the button when it is in the pressed state.
- Finally, you can add additional actions to the "While not scrolling in view" section to revert the button back to its original state when the user is not in the specified section.
By following these steps, you'll be able to create a hover interaction in Webflow where buttons stay pressed as long as the user is on a specific section of the page.
