To create a scroll animation in Webflow to change the color of a circle's border radius from top to bottom, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a circle element: Start by adding a div block to your page and set its shape to circle. You can use the "Width" and "Height" properties to adjust the size of the circle.

  2. Set initial styling: Go to the Styles panel and give the circle element a background color and a border with a solid color and desired width. Make sure the border-radius property is set to half of the circle's width, so that it appears as a perfect circle.

  3. Set up interactions: In the Interactions panel, click on the "+" button to add a new scroll animation. Choose the "While scrolling in view" option.

  4. Define animation trigger: In the "While scrolling in view" section, choose the element that will trigger the animation. This could be the entire page, a section, or any other element that you want.

  5. Add a new set to trigger the animation: Click on the "+" button next to "A New Set" and select the circle element. This will create a new set of animations specifically for the circle.

  6. Define animation actions: Click on the "+" button next to "Add Action" to add a new animation action. In this case, select the "Background Color" property.

  7. Set up animation values: Customize the initial and final values of the background color property. For example, you can set the initial value to be transparent (if you want the circle to start with no color) and the final value to be the desired color.

  8. Add another action to modify the circle's border-radius: Repeat step 6, this time selecting the "Border Radius" property. Set the initial and final values to match the border radius you want, for example, 0% for the initial value and 50% for the final value.

  9. Fine-tune the animation: You can adjust the duration, easing, and delay of the animation in the "Advanced" tab of each animation action. Experiment with different values to achieve the desired effect.

  10. Preview and publish: Finally, preview the animation in the Designer to ensure it looks as expected. Once satisfied, publish your site to make the animation live.

By following these steps, you will be able to create a scroll animation in Webflow to change the color of a circle's border radius from top to bottom.
