I wonder if anyone can help me. I’ve created a Mondrian style layout using CSS Grid. I have a heading that has been rotated to be vertical that spans a couple of rows and is sticky. I’d like to achieve an effect that when a horizontal black line passes over/under the black heading text the text that intersects the line is white.
I think I need to use mix-blend-mode. But so far I’ve not had any luck with my experiments. I’m wondering if I need to fake the horizontal line with a linear-gradient as the background to make it more image like, though I’ve failed on that count too! I’ve added a jsfiddle below for more clarity:
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
I've checked this answer out Change color of text when scrolling over/under another element?, but it's slightly different as it's using different colors in the blend mode.

CodePudding user response:
You need to apply mix-blend-mode to the parent element and color: white (on the text) to apply the desired effect. Keep in mind that if you're not using black (#000) or white (#fff) you might not get the colors you started out with due to blending.
My solution:
.content__heading {
position: sticky;
padding: 1.5rem;
mix-blend-mode: difference;
}
.content__heading h2 {
position: sticky;
top: 1.5rem;
font-size: clamp(4.5rem, 20vmin, 7.875rem);
line-height: 1;
-ms-writing-mode: tb-lr;
writing-mode: vertical-lr;
transform: rotate(180deg);
text-align: right;
/* add color white to achieve the right inversion */
color: white;
}
