To create an image that rotates in from the side of the screen with a corner as the center point in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a new section: Start by adding a new section to your Webflow project. This section will serve as the container for your rotating image.

  2. Add a div block: Within the newly created section, add a div block. This div block will hold your image.

  3. Add your image: Upload the image you want to use and place it inside the div block. Make sure the image is positioned towards the corner that will serve as the rotation center.

  4. Apply animations: Select the div block, go to the "Interactions" panel, and click on the "+" button to add a new interaction. Choose the "Scroll" trigger to define when the animation will start.

  5. Choose animation type: In the "Animation" tab, select the animation type you want to use. For this case, choose the "Rotate 3D" animation.

  6. Set the rotation point: Adjust the X and Y values in the "Transform" section of the animation settings to specify the rotation point. Experiment with different values to achieve the desired effect.

  7. Adjust the settings: Fine-tune the animation by adjusting the duration, easing, and delay in the "Animation" tab. Preview the animation to see the changes in real-time.

  8. Refine the animation appearance: If needed, you can further enhance the appearance of the rotating image by applying additional styles or animations, such as opacity or scaling.

  9. Preview and publish: Once you're satisfied with the animation, preview it in the Webflow designer to ensure it works as expected. Finally, publish your project to make the rotating image live on your website.

The rotating image will now appear from the side of the screen, with the specified corner serving as the center point of rotation.
