Transition background-image to grey
Trying to make background-image smoothly fade out into transparent, with the text opacity unchanged, however I only managed a on/off transition.
Transition with opacity does not work here, since I need the text to stay opaque. Any thoughts how this could be done?
Here's my code:
.grid {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 500px;
height: 250px;
}
.flexbox {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
flex-direction: row;
overflow: hidden;
}
#one {
width: 250px;
height: 250px;
background-color: red;
background: url('https://doorcountypulse.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/1-PP-3-9-18-Raccoon-at-cracked-corn-660x440.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 40%;
}
#one:hover {
background: linear-gradient(rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5)), url('https://doorcountypulse.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/1-PP-3-9-18-Raccoon-at-cracked-corn-660x440.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 40%;
height: 250px;
}

You can try to use the :: after tag, which will help you do what you expect.
You must remember about content = "", without which the picture will not appear.
Also remember to correctly set the z-index which is responsible for the location of the layer.
And here's the solution for your example:
.grid {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 500px;
height: 250px;
}
.flexbox {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
flex-direction: row;
overflow: hidden;
}
#one {
width: 250px;
height: 250px;
position: relative;
}
#one::after {
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: url('https://doorcountypulse.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/1-PP-3-9-18-Raccoon-at-cracked-corn-660x440.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 40%;
left: 0;
top: 0;
content: "";
transition: opacity 0.3s, visibility 0.3s;
}
#textbox {
z-index: 2;
position: relative;
}
#one:hover::after {
opacity: 0;
transition: opacity 0.3s, visibility 0.3s;
}
<div class="grid">
<div class="flexbox">
<div id="one">
<div id="textbox">

</div>
</div>
</div>

Thank you, it worked! While your code does exactly what I asked to help with - smooth transition to gray on :hover - it would be be just best if it also added an ease-out backwards animation. Anyway you helped me a lot, tx!
