Scrolling page

Hi,

 I have a question if there is any possibility of creating an interaction in Adobe XD, as on this website https://barczentewicz.pl. I mean the drop-down menu that disappears after selecting the "vine" option and the next subcategory. I would like the page to scroll, just like here, but I don't know how to make the menu hide, it's still visible at the top of the page. Could you please send me a tutorial, is it even feasible?

    You can make the menu fixed, and put it below all layers in the hierarchy. Then add the white (or other color) background as a rectangle that starts a little lower than the menu. When the page is scrolled, the menu will remain fixed, and that background rectangle along with the other layers will scroll on top of it and hide it.

     

    The interaction you can't mimic is to show the menu when the user scrolls up.

    Thanks for the answer, but that's not what I mean. I enclose a link to a sample prototype. If we expand the menu and go to "third party", the menu does not go back to the default state. How to make the menu return to the default state after moving to the appropriate section?

    I see. You want to both switch the menu's state back to default and scroll down.

    Unfortunately, you can't do 2 actions at the same time in Xd. Can't be done with an overlay either, since it can't have a scroll interaction pointing to an element on a different artboard.

     

    The interaction can be prototyped as a set of steps, but won't work realistically. It won't be much different than animating everything in After Effects. You can have multiple artboards with auto-animate to simulate what happens. However, once the user tries to scroll, it won't work.
