To place an orange triangle behind a black box in the corner on Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a new div block: Start by adding a new div block to your canvas. This will be the container for your orange triangle and black box.

  2. Set the positioning: In the Styles panel, set the position of the div block to relative. This will allow us to position the triangle and box within this container.

  3. Add the orange triangle: Inside the div block, create a new div block and give it a class name like "triangle". In the Styles panel, give it a fixed width and height, and set the background color to orange. Position this div block absolutely by selecting "absolute" from the position dropdown. Adjust the top, right, bottom, or left values to place the triangle in the desired corner. To create a triangle shape, use CSS pseudo-elements like ::before or ::after and apply a border styling to mimic a triangle shape. Adjust the positioning and dimensions as needed to achieve the desired effect.

  4. Add the black box: Inside the div block, create another div block and give it a class name like "black-box". In the Styles panel, set the background color to black and adjust the width, height, and positioning as needed. You can control the positioning of the black box by setting the position to absolute and specifying the top, right, bottom, or left values.

  5. Arrange the layers: To ensure that the orange triangle appears behind the black box, use the "z-index" property in the Styles panel. Set a higher z-index value for the black box div block to make it appear above the triangle div block.

  6. Fine-tuning: Feel free to adjust the dimensions, positioning, colors, and other properties of the triangle and black box as needed to achieve your desired design. You can also add additional styling or effects to make it more visually appealing.

By following these steps, you will be able to place an orange triangle behind a black box in the corner on Webflow. Remember to save your changes and publish your site for the changes to take effect.
