How can I make the Hamburger Icon change to an "X" when clicked in Webflow?
To make the hamburger icon change to an "X" when clicked in Webflow, you can follow these steps:
Select the hamburger icon element on the canvas or in the Navigator panel. You can usually find it inside a "Menu" or "Navbar" element.
Go to the Style panel on the right-hand side of the Webflow Designer.
In the Transform section, find the Rotate property and set it to 90 degrees.
Create a new interaction by clicking on the "New Interaction" button, located at the top of the Style panel.
In the interaction settings window, give the interaction a name, such as "Hamburger to X," and select the trigger type as "Click."
Add a new action by clicking on the "+" button in the Actions section.
In the action settings window, select the hamburger icon element as the target, and set the action to "Rotate." Enter the value of -90 degrees in the Rotate property field.
Add another action by clicking on the "+" button again.
In the action settings window, choose the hamburger icon element as the target, and set the action to "Toggle Class." Give the class a name, such as "active," and define the styles for the "X" icon within this class.
Save the interaction, and you're done!
Now, when you preview or publish your Webflow site and click on the hamburger icon, it should animate from the hamburger shape to an "X" shape, indicating that the menu is open or active. Clicking it again should reverse the animation and return to the hamburger shape.
By implementing this toggle between the hamburger and "X" icon, you provide a more intuitive visual indication to users that the menu is being opened or closed, enhancing the overall user experience of your Webflow site.
