How do I get a Backdrop Filter Blur to work on my custom cursor circle when it hovers over the nav links?

To create a Backdrop Filter Blur effect on a custom cursor circle when it hovers over the nav links in Webflow, you can follow the steps below:

1. Create the custom cursor circle:

• Design a custom cursor circle element using a div block and apply appropriate styles such as background color, size, border radius, and position.
• Set the position property of the custom cursor circle to "absolute" and set "pointer-events" to "none" to ensure it doesn't interfere with the clickable nav links.

1. Add interactions to the custom cursor circle:

• Select the custom cursor circle element and go to the Interactions panel.
• Create a new hover interaction by clicking on the "+" icon.
• Choose the "Hover" trigger and select the nav link element(s) you want to apply the Backdrop Filter Blur effect to.
• In the action section, choose "Affect different element" and select the custom cursor circle element.
• Enable the "After" option, which will allow you to specify the animation that occurs after the hover interaction.
• In the "After" animation, adjust the properties to include the Backdrop Filter Blur effect.
• Set the duration and easing according to your design preference.

1. Apply the Backdrop Filter Blur effect:

• With the custom cursor circle selected, go to the Styles panel.
• Click on the "+" icon next to the Filters section to add a new filter.
• Choose "Backdrop Filter" from the filter options.
• Adjust the Backdrop Filter values to achieve the desired blur effect. You can control properties such as blur radius, contrast, brightness, and saturation.

1. Preview and refine:

• Preview your site to see the Backdrop Filter Blur effect in action when the custom cursor circle hovers over the nav links.
• Fine-tune the Backdrop Filter values and the animation properties until you achieve the desired result.
• Don't forget to publish your site to make the changes live on the web.

This approach allows you to create a visually appealing Backdrop Filter Blur effect on your custom cursor circle when it hovers over the nav links in Webflow.
