How can I make a section scroll horizontally to the right when clicking an arrow in Webflow's "Movies Template" page on tablet and phone mode?
Published on

To make a section scroll horizontally to the right when clicking an arrow in Webflow's "Movies Template" page on tablet and phone mode, you can follow these steps:
- Select the element or section that you want to scroll horizontally.
- Go to the "Settings" panel on the right side of the Webflow Designer.
- Under the "Position" section, make sure that the element or section has a specific width set, either in pixels or percentage.
- Set the "Overflow" property to "hidden". This will hide any content that extends beyond the set width.
- Add a "div" block within the selected element or section. This will act as the container for the content that needs to be scrolled horizontally.
- Give the "div" block a class name and set its width accordingly, making it wider than the parent element's width.
- Set the "Overflow" property of the "div" block to "scroll" or "auto". This will enable horizontal scrolling for the content within the block.
- Inside the "div" block, add the content or elements that you want to be scrollable horizontally.
- Add an arrow element (such as a button or icon) outside the scrollable section, which will trigger the scrolling action.
- Select the arrow element and go to the "Interactions" panel on the right side of the Webflow Designer.
- Create a new interaction for the arrow element, such as a click interaction.
- Set the action of the interaction to "Scroll into view" and select the target element. Make sure the target element is the scrollable "div" block within the section.
- Specify the direction of the scroll as "Right". This will make the section scroll horizontally to the right when the arrow is clicked.
- Preview and test the interaction to ensure that the section scrolls horizontally to the right when the arrow is clicked.
By following these steps, you can create a section that scrolls horizontally to the right when clicking an arrow in the Webflow "Movies Template" page on tablet and phone mode.
