To make an earth icon rotate when scrolling down on Webflow, you can follow these steps:
- Add the earth icon to your Webflow project:
- Go to the Webflow Designer and select the element or section where you want to place the earth icon.
- Click on the "+" button to add an element and choose the appropriate icon component from the sidebar.
- Customize the size and placement of the earth icon to fit your design.
- Apply the interaction to the earth icon:
- Select the earth icon and click on the "Interactions" panel on the right-hand side of the Designer.
- Click on the "+" button to create a new interaction.
- Choose "While scrolling in view" as the trigger for the interaction.
- Set the start and end points for the animation. For example, you can set the rotation from 0 degrees at the start point to 360 degrees at the end point.
- Customize the easing options to control the speed and smoothness of the rotation animation.
- Fine-tune the interaction settings:
- Use the "Limit to children with class" option if you only want the animation to apply to specific elements within a section.
- Adjust the "Offset" value to delay the start of the animation or make it trigger earlier when scrolling down.
- Preview and test the animation to ensure it behaves as desired.
- Publish and optimize the website:
- Once you're satisfied with the animation, publish your Webflow project.
- Ensure that the earth icon is properly optimized by using an appropriate file format (such as SVG) and compressing the file size if necessary.
- Implement alt text for accessibility purposes, describing the earth icon if it fails to load or for visually impaired users.
By following these steps, you can easily create a rotating earth icon when scrolling down on your Webflow website.
