Why is the "popup wrapper" not relative to the body in Webflow?
The "popup wrapper" in Webflow is not relative to the body by default for a few reasons. Here are some possible explanations for why this is the case:
Accessibility and usability: When a popup or modal is set to be relative to the body, it can potentially cover important content for users who rely on screen readers or have limited mobility. By making the popup wrapper relative to its parent element, it ensures that the content remains accessible and usable for all users.
Flexible design options: Webflow allows for highly customizable designs, and by making the popup wrapper relative to its parent element, it provides more flexibility in positioning the popup on the page. This allows designers to create unique and visually appealing layouts by placing the popup within different sections or containers.
Responsive design: Webflow is known for its responsive design capabilities, allowing websites to adapt to different screen sizes. By making the popup wrapper relative to its parent element, it ensures that the popup remains responsive to changes in the layout and keeps its placement consistent across different devices.
By keeping the popup wrapper relative to its parent element, Webflow provides a balance between accessibility, usability, design flexibility, and responsive design. However, it's important to note that Webflow also provides options to change the positioning of the popup wrapper using custom code or interactions, giving users the flexibility to achieve their desired design and functionality.
