When you apply a "Scroll into view" trigger to a Lottie animation in Webflow, it is possible for the animation to disappear after playback. This issue can occur due to the interplay between the animation and the trigger.
Here are the possible reasons and solutions for this issue:

Animation placement: If the Lottie animation is placed within a parent element that has a fixed height or overflow set to hidden, it can cause the animation to disappear after playback. To fix this issue, ensure that the parent element has a height that allows the Lottie animation to be fully visible.
Animation visibility: Sometimes, the Lottie animation may become hidden due to CSS properties such as opacity: 0 or visibility: hidden being applied to the element after playback. Make sure there are no conflicting styles that hide the animation, and ensure that the element remains visible even after playback.
Animation trigger settings: It is possible that the trigger settings for the "Scroll into view" interaction are not correctly configured. Check if the trigger is set to affect the correct animation element and if the animation is set to start and loop as intended. Properly adjusting the trigger settings should resolve any issues with the animation disappearing after playback.
Z-index conflicts: Another potential cause for the animation disappearing after playback is a z-index conflict. Ensure that the z-index values of the animation and its parent elements are properly set, and that there are no other elements overlapping or obscuring the animation.
Browser issues: Some browsers may present display issues with Lottie animations, causing them to disappear after playback. Test your animation on different browsers to verify if the issue is browser-specific. If it is, consider using a different animation format or consult the Lottie documentation for any known browser compatibility issues.

By addressing these potential issues, you should be able to ensure that your Lottie animation remains visible after playback when using a "Scroll into view" trigger in Webflow.
