What could be causing the large black lines to appear across the background image on the landing page of the Oracle Designs website only on desktop in Safari?
There could be several reasons why large black lines are appearing across the background image on the Oracle Designs website's landing page only on desktop in Safari. Here are some potential causes and solutions:
- Image sizing issue: It's possible that the background image is not properly sized or the aspect ratio is incorrect, causing it to stretch or distort on specific devices or browsers. To fix this:
- Ensure that the image is the correct size and has the appropriate aspect ratio for the background section.
- Use an image editing tool to resize and optimize the image for the web.
- Set the background image size to "cover" or "contain" to ensure it fits the container properly.
- CSS code conflicts: It's possible that there are conflicting CSS rules or browser-specific prefixes that are causing the issue. To resolve this:
- Check the CSS code for any conflicting or redundant rules that could affect the background image.
- Use a CSS validator tool to identify and fix any errors or warnings in the code.
- Make sure you have appropriate browser prefixes (-webkit-, -moz-, etc.) for CSS properties that require them.
- Browser compatibility issue: Safari may have specific rendering issues or bugs that are affecting the background image. To address this:
- Check if there are any known compatibility issues between Safari and the version of Webflow you are using.
- Upgrade to the latest version of Webflow to ensure you have the most recent bug fixes and enhancements.
- Test the website on different Safari versions or devices to see if the issue persists across different platforms.
Caching problem: Sometimes, browser caching can cause visual glitches or loading issues. Try clearing the cache in Safari to see if it resolves the problem. You can do this by going to Safari Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data, then searching for the Oracle Designs website and clicking "Remove All".
Hardware acceleration: Certain graphics cards or settings on the user's computer can interfere with the rendering of the background image. You can try disabling hardware acceleration in Safari to see if it helps. Go to Safari Preferences > Advanced and check the box next to "Show Develop menu in menu bar". Then, go to the Develop menu > Experimental Features and uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available".
By troubleshooting these potential causes, you should be able to identify and fix the issue of large black lines appearing across the background image on the Oracle Designs website's landing page in Safari on desktop.
