In Webflow, it is possible to add a section that scrolls into view after an interaction without the need for custom code. Webflow provides various built-in interactions and scroll trigger options that make it easy to create this effect. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:

  1. Create the section you want to scroll into view: Start by designing and adding the desired section to your Webflow project. Ensure that the section is not visible initially.

  2. Add an interaction to trigger the scroll: In the Webflow Designer, select the element or button that will trigger the scroll. Go to the Interactions panel and create a new interaction for that element.

  3. Define the scroll into view animation: Within the interaction settings, choose the "Scroll & Transforms" option. Set the scroll trigger to "While page is scrolling" and select the desired animation effect for the section. For example, you can choose to fade in, slide, or scale the section into view. Adjust the animation properties, such as duration and easing, according to your preference.

  4. Set up the scroll target: Scroll down in the interaction settings to the "Scroll settings" section. Click on the "Add new scroll trigger" button and select the section that you want to scroll into view.

  5. Preview and refine: Preview the interaction by clicking the "Preview" button in the top-right corner of the Webflow Designer. Test the scroll trigger to ensure that the section scrolls into view as expected. If necessary, tweak the animation settings or scroll trigger to achieve the desired effect.

By following these steps, you can easily create a section that scrolls into view after an interaction in Webflow, without requiring custom code.
