To create a scroll-based interaction in Webflow where hovering over a section removes a gradient cover with text and reveals an informational dark transparent-text box, you can follow these steps:

  1. Prepare your design: Start by designing the gradient cover with text and the informational dark transparent-text box. You can use a gradient background for the cover and a dark background for the text box.

  2. Create the sections: Divide your content into sections and name them appropriately. Each section will have its own gradient cover and informational box.

  3. Set up the interactions: Select the section you want to add the interaction to and go to the Interactions panel in Webflow.

  4. Add a hover trigger: Click on the "+" icon next to "Trigger" and select "Hover". This will activate the interaction when the section is hovered over.

  5. Add an action: Click on the "+" icon next to "Affect" and select "Hide/Show". Choose the gradient cover element and set the action to "Hide".

  6. Add another action: Click on the "+" icon next to "Affect" again and select "Hide/Show". This time, choose the informational dark transparent-text box and set the action to "Show".

  7. Set the initial state: In the interactions panel, click on "Initial Appearance" and choose the gradient cover element. Set the initial state to "Visible".

  8. Fine-tune the animation: You can further customize the animation by adjusting the transition duration, easing, and position of the elements. You can also add additional animations, such as fading or sliding effects, to enhance the interaction.

  9. Apply the interaction: Repeat steps 3-8 for each section where you want to add this interaction.

  10. Preview and test: Once you have set up the interactions for all the sections, preview your site in the Webflow designer or publish it to a temporary domain to test the scroll-based interaction.

By following these steps, you will be able to create a scroll-based interaction in Webflow where hovering over a section removes a gradient cover with text and reveals an informational dark transparent-text box.
