How can I change the z-index of objects in Webflow so that the cursor is not placed behind images?
To change the z-index of objects in Webflow, including images, you can follow these steps:
1. Select the element you want to adjust the z-index for. In this case, it would be the image.
2. Open the element's settings panel by clicking on the "Settings" gear icon in the right sidebar or double-clicking on the element.
3. In the settings panel, navigate to the "Position" section. Here, you will find the "Z-Index" option.
4. Adjust the z-index value to determine the stack order of the element. Higher values will place the element on top of elements with lower values.
Normally, the default value for z-index is 1, and elements with a higher value will be placed on top of those with a lower value.
However, if you're finding that the cursor is being placed behind the images even after increasing the z-index value, it could be due to the stacking context of the elements.
In such cases, there are a few additional steps you can take:
1. Ensure that the image element has a higher z-index value than the elements it's overlapping with. You may need to increase the z-index value further until the image is positioned correctly.
2. Check if the parent element or other ancestors have a lower z-index value. Sometimes, the stack order of parent elements can affect the child elements within them. You may need to adjust the z-index of the parent element(s) accordingly.
3. Consider the stacking context of the elements. Elements within a different stacking context may not respect the z-index of other stacking contexts. Stacking contexts are established based on certain CSS properties like position, opacity, and transform. If the cursor is running into such issues, you might need to adjust the properties of the elements involved to establish the correct stacking context.
By adjusting the z-index values, considering the stacking order of ancestor elements, and managing the stacking contexts, you should be able to control the placement of objects and prevent the cursor from being placed behind the images in Webflow.
