To make Webflow animations occur only once when scrolling up and down, you can follow these steps:
- Select the element you want to animate in the Webflow Designer.
- In the Interactions panel, click on the "+ New Interaction" button.
- Choose the Scroll Trigger option.
- In the settings for the Scroll Trigger, select "While scrolling into view" for the "When to start" option. This will ensure that the animation triggers when the element enters the viewport.
- Next, enable the "Limit to 1x" option under "Action settings". This will ensure that the animation happens only once.
- Choose the animation you want to apply to the element from the "Affects" dropdown menu.
- Configure the animation settings like duration, easing, and delay according to your preferences.
- Click on the "Apply" button to save your animation.
By enabling the "Limit to 1x" option in the Scroll Trigger settings, you ensure that the animation occurs only once when the element is scrolled into view. This prevents the animation from repeating as you scroll up and down on the page.
Additional Tips:
- You can customize the animation by adding multiple interactions to the same element or combining different animations.
- Experiment with different trigger options like "While scrolling in view," "While scrolling in view (reverse)," or "While scrolling in view (once)" to achieve different effects.
- Test your animations on different screen sizes to ensure they work well across devices.
By following these steps, you can make sure that your Webflow animations only happen once when scrolling up and down.
