Yes, it is definitely possible to change non-background images at different breakpoints in Webflow. Webflow provides a powerful and intuitive interface that allows you to create responsive designs with ease. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Add the image: Start by adding the desired image element to your Webflow project. You can do this by dragging and dropping the image component from the Add panel or using the keyboard shortcut (I).

  2. Set image properties: With the image element selected, you can set the source by either manually uploading the image or selecting it from your media library. You can also choose the alt text for accessibility purposes.

  3. Define breakpoints: To change the image at different breakpoints, you need to define the breakpoints first. Webflow offers several predefined breakpoints, such as desktop, tablet, and mobile.

  4. Edit image at different breakpoints: With the image selected, you'll find the Styles tab in the right sidebar. Within the Styles tab, you'll see a Breakpoint icon (indicated by a small mobile, tablet, or desktop icon) next to the Image property. Clicking on the Breakpoint icon allows you to set different styles for each breakpoint.

  5. Change the image: Once you have activated the desired breakpoint, you can choose a different image for that specific breakpoint. Simply click on the Image property and upload a new image or select one from the media library. You can also adjust other image properties like width, height, and styling specifically for that breakpoint.

  6. Repeat for other breakpoints: Repeat the steps above to change the image at the remaining breakpoints. You can have different images for each breakpoint, providing a seamless and optimized experience across various devices.

By following these steps, you can easily change non-background images at different breakpoints in Webflow. This flexibility allows you to tailor your website design to look great on different screen sizes while optimizing the loading speed and user experience.
