How can I make the image fill the div in Webflow's flexbox grid without importing each photo to size?

To make an image fill a div in Webflow's flexbox grid without manually resizing each image, use CSS object-fit and ensure the div has a defined size. Here’s how:

1. Set Up the Parent Div

• Ensure your div or grid cell has a defined width and height (e.g., percentage, VW/VH, or fixed pixels).
• If needed, set display: flex on the parent to help center content.

2. Add an Image and Configure Sizing

• Place an Image Element or use a Background Image depending on your use case:
• Image Element Approach:
  • Select the image element inside the div.
  • Go to Styles Panel and set Width: 100% and Height: 100%.
  • In the Advanced section, set Object-Fit: Cover (this ensures the image fills the div without distortion).
• Background Image Approach (best for purely decorative images):
  • Select the div and set Background: Image.
  • Choose Cover for the background size option.
  • Set Position: Center to align properly.

3. Adjust for Responsiveness

• Use Webflow's Breakpoints to tweak the height or image behavior at different screen sizes.
• If images overflow oddly, try using min-height or clamp() for dynamic scaling.

Summary

To make an image fill a div in Webflow's flexbox grid, set the image’s width & height to 100% and use object-fit: cover. Alternatively, use a Background Image with Cover settings. Adjust for responsiveness as needed.
