I have two divs; let's call them div 1 and div 2 and the one on top of the other is set to visibility:hidden:

Basically the info div is supposed to appear whenever you hover the other one. That part works fine, except when I hover my mouse onto the text box, and it starts appearing and disappearing glitch-illy and it's extremely hard on the eyes.

What I want to achieve is that if div 1's area is hovered, even though it's behind another element, the visibility of div 2 will remain visible.

I suspect the issue is that mouse doesn't hover div 1 anymore, so div 2 disappears, then div 1 is hovered again, and repeat a thousand times in a second.

.ning-img, .bo-img {
  position:absolute;
    width:50%;
    height:100%;
    overflow:hidden;
    background-position: center center;
    background-size:cover;
    clip-path: polygon(32% 0, 100% 0, 68% 100%, 0% 100%);

}

.ning-img {
  left:0%;
  background-color:green;
}

.bo-img {
  left:50%;
  background-color:blue;
}
.ning, .bo {
  position:absolute;
  top:70%;
  left:10%;
  width:70%;
  height:10%;
  visibility:hidden;
  z-index:2;
}

.ning {
  background-color:purple;
}

.bo {
  background-color:yellow;
}

.bo-img:hover ~ .bo {
    animation-name:anim;
    animation-duration: 0.2s;
        animation-fill-mode: forwards;

}


.ning-img:hover ~ .ning {
    animation-name:anim;
    animation-duration: 0.2s;
        animation-fill-mode: forwards;

}

@keyframes anim {
    100% {
        visibility: visible;
    }
}

  • Forgot to add, there are multiple divs behind div 2, so it displaying on its own hover is not an option!

You could disable pointer events on the foreground element? doing this will maintain the hover state on the background element

.ning-img, .bo-img {
  position:absolute;
    width:50%;
    height:100%;
    overflow:hidden;
    background-position: center center;
    background-size:cover;
    clip-path: polygon(32% 0, 100% 0, 68% 100%, 0% 100%);

}

.ning-img {
  left:0%;
  background-color:green;
}

.bo-img {
  left:50%;
  background-color:blue;
}
.ning, .bo {
  position:absolute;
  top:70%;
  left:10%;
  width:70%;
  height:10%;
  visibility:hidden;
  z-index:2;
}

.ning {
  background-color:purple;
  pointer-events:none;
}

.bo {
  background-color:yellow;
}

.bo-img:hover ~ .bo {
    animation-name:anim;
    animation-duration: 0.2s;
        animation-fill-mode: forwards;

}


.ning-img:hover ~ .ning {
    animation-name:anim;
    animation-duration: 0.2s;
        animation-fill-mode: forwards;

}

@keyframes anim {
    100% {
        visibility: visible;
    }
}
