I’ve read the topics similar to this which, for the most part have been abandoned and never addressed. I finally ran into this issue today and it’s about as cut and dry as can be. I build my sites by adding my content without any css styling. i added an image placeholder and gave it an image. no margin. no flex. no size. nothing. and it starts to pulsate. large. small. super small. disappears. large. this is all in the designer. some images do it while others don’t. before suggesting i use this css feature or that css hack I repeat I have simply added an unstyled image in an unstyled div and the image shrinks and grows on its own.
that should not happen at all.
what is this problem? it’s been getting worse and worse over the past week. with this bug webflow has turned into a simple code editor where i have to publish my pages to see what my code is doing rendering the designer useless as i cannot trust what is being shown. mind as well go back to VS Code.
I’ve been there, and it can indeed be quite frustrating. Here are some tips I can share:
Firstly, make sure the images you’re using have consistent sizes and resolutions. This can often be a culprit when it comes to unexpected size changes.
I also think it’s a good idea to test your project in different web browsers to see if the issue remains consistent. Sometimes, browsers interpret CSS or HTML differently, causing display problems.
AND take a closer look at the styles applied to the image and its parent elements. Sometimes, conflicting or unnecessary CSS properties can lead to unexpected behavior.
Usually, when I’ve gotten issues like that in webflow is because the image doesn’t have a set size. I found this not to be a webflow issue but a browser quirk after testing in multiple browsers and different operating systems.
