To make an image blur on hover and have text appear in Webflow, follow these steps:
- Add a
div
block to your Webflow project where you want the image and text to appear. - Inside the
div
block, add animage
element. Set the desired image as the source for the element. - Next, add a
text
element inside thediv
block, positioned where you want the text to appear. - Style the
div
block by giving it a relative position, so that its children elements (the image and text) can be positioned relative to it. - Apply the desired styles to the image and text, such as size, font, color, etc.
- Select the
div
block, and go to the "Interactions" panel in the Webflow Designer. - Under the "Trigger" section of the panel, choose the "Hover" interaction.
- In the "Affect" section, choose the "Sibling elements" option.
- Select the image element from the dropdown menu.
- In the "Transition" section, choose the "Blur" option.
- Set the initial blur value to 0 or 0px, which means the image will have no blur initially.
- Set the hover blur value to the desired level of blur, such as 5px or 10px. This will blur the image on hover.
- Add an animation trigger for the text element to appear on hover. This can be done by selecting the text element, going to the "Display" section in the "Interactions" panel, and choosing the "None" option for the initial state, and the "Block" option for the hover state.
- Adjust the timing and easing settings for both the blur transition and the text animation to achieve the desired effect.
- Preview and test the hover effect to ensure it's working as expected.
By following these steps, you can create a hover effect where the image blurs, and text appears on top of the image.
