Yes, there are tutorials available for creating a floating arrow on a website that scrolls the site down when pressed. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to create a floating arrow using Webflow:

  1. Create a new project in Webflow or open an existing project.
  2. Add a new section to your page where you want the floating arrow to appear. This section will act as the trigger point for the scroll.
  3. Inside the section, insert a div block. This div block will serve as the container for the arrow.
  4. Style the div block as desired. You can set a background color, border, and adjust the size of the arrow container.
  5. Insert an SVG arrow icon into the div block. You can find free SVG icons on websites like Flaticon or Icons8, or you can design your own using software like Adobe Illustrator.
  6. Style the arrow icon. You can adjust the size, color, stroke, and any other visual properties to match your website's design.
  7. Position the arrow container to the desired location on your page. You can use the position property to make it fixed, so it stays visible as the user scrolls.
  8. Add an interaction to the arrow container. Select the container, go to the Interactions panel, and click on the "Add New" button.
  9. In the "Trigger" section, choose the "Click" option.
  10. In the "Affect" section, select the action you want the arrow to perform. In this case, choose "Scroll to" and select the section you want to scroll to when the arrow is clicked.
  11. Customize the easing options to control the scroll animation. You can adjust the duration, delay, and type of easing to achieve the desired effect.
  12. Preview your website to see the floating arrow in action. Make any necessary adjustments to the styling or positioning if needed.

With these steps, you should be able to create a floating arrow on your website that scrolls the site down when pressed.
