When will Webflow allow for separating interactions from the element they are applied to?

TL;DR

Webflow does not currently allow interactions to be fully separated from the elements they are applied to, but they have acknowledged this as a highly requested feature. While there is no official release date, Webflow has been improving interactions and animations over time.

Workarounds:

  • Use Page-Based Interactions: These allow you to trigger animations globally without directly attaching them to a specific element.
  • Use Classes for Consistency: Apply interactions to a reusable class, so changes apply across multiple elements.
  • Embed Custom JavaScript: For more flexibility, use JavaScript to handle interactions independently of Webflow’s built-in system.

Webflow’s roadmaps and community updates are the best places to track when this feature might become available. Keep an eye on Webflow University and the Webflow Forum for updates.
