To animate the text underline in and out slowly on Webflow, you can follow these steps:
- Select the text element that you want to apply the animation to.
- Go to the Interactions panel, located on the right-hand side of the Webflow editor.
- Click on the "+" button to create a new interaction.
- Choose the trigger for the interaction. It can be a page load, scroll into view, or any other event that you prefer.
- Select the element that you want to animate. In this case, it would be the underline element. If your text doesn't have an underline, you can create one by adding a div block below the text element and styling it as an underline.
- Set the initial state of the underline. This can be done by adjusting the opacity or height of the underline element to make it invisible or minimized.
- Add a new animation to the element by clicking the "+" button in the Animation section of the interaction panel.
- Configure the animation settings. Choose the animation type as "Opacity" or "Height" depending on how you want the underline to appear.
- Set the duration of the animation to control the speed at which the underline fades in or expands.
- Adjust the easing curve to create a smooth and gradual transition in and out of the animation.
- To create the "out" animation, add another new animation step and set it to reverse the effect of the "in" animation. For example, if using opacity, set it to 0%.
- Preview the animation to see how it looks and make any necessary adjustments.
- Publish your site to see the animated text underline in action.
By following these steps, you can achieve a slow and smooth in and out animation for the text underline in Webflow.
