Yes, it is possible to implement a filling font animation on scroll using Webflow. Here's how you can achieve this effect:
- Create a new Webflow project and open the Designer.
- Add a new section to your page or select an existing one where you want to apply the filling font animation.
- Inside the section, add a div block to contain your text.
- Add a text element, such as a heading or paragraph, inside the div block and enter your desired text.
- Style the text element using the typography settings in the Style panel. You can choose the font, size, weight, and color that you prefer.
- Select the div block and give it a class name in the class field of the Settings panel. For example, you can name it "filling-text-wrapper."
- Go to the Interactions panel by clicking on the lightning bolt icon in the top-right corner.
- Click on "Set Initial State" to define the starting point of the animation.
- In the initial state, set the opacity of the text inside the div block to 0%. This will make the text invisible when the page loads.
- Scroll down in the Interactions panel and click on "While scrolling in view" to add a new scroll trigger.
- In the scroll trigger settings, select the section that contains the div block. You can adjust the trigger offset and limit as needed.
- Click on the plus icon to add a new action.
- In the action settings, choose to fade in the text with a specific duration. This will create the effect of the text filling in as the user scrolls.
- Repeat steps 12 and 13 for the scrolling out of view action, but this time set the opacity to 0% to make the text disappear as the user scrolls away.
- Preview your page to see the filling font animation in action. You can also publish the site to make the animation visible to others.
By following these steps, you can implement a filling font animation on scroll using Webflow. This effect can add visual interest and engagement to your website.
