To make a Lottie animation completely fill the parent div in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

Create a parent div: Start by creating a div element that will serve as the container for your Lottie animation. Give this div a class name to easily target it.
Set the parent div's positioning: In the Webflow Designer, select the parent div and go to the "Position" section in the Style panel. Choose either "Relative" or "Absolute" positioning, depending on your layout requirements.
Set the parent div's dimensions: In the "Layout" section of the Style panel, set the width and height of the parent div to 100%. This ensures that the div spans the entire width and height of its parent container.
Add the Lottie animation: Drag and drop the Lottie animation file into the parent div. Webflow will automatically generate a new element called "Lottie Animation" within the div.
Style the Lottie Animation element: With the Lottie Animation element selected, use the "Position" section to set its positioning to "Absolute", and adjust the "Top", "Right", "Bottom", and "Left" values to 0. This will make the Lottie Animation element fill the entire parent div.
Optional: Adjust animation settings: If needed, you can further fine-tune the Lottie animation's appearance and behavior using the options provided in the Webflow Designer.
Preview and publish: When you're satisfied with the result, preview the page to see the Lottie animation filling the parent div. If everything looks good, publish the site to make the changes live.

By following these steps, you should be able to make a Lottie animation completely fill the parent div in Webflow, ensuring a seamless and visually engaging experience.
