How can I create a centered navigation bar similar to the one on the Pantone website using Webflow?

To create a centered navigation bar like the one on the Pantone website in Webflow, you need to use Flexbox or Grid to structure your layout and center the nav links around a central logo. Here's how to build it.

1. Structure the Navbar Elements

• Add a Navbar component from the Add panel.
• Delete the default container inside the Navbar (optional, based on your layout preference).
• Inside the Navbar, add a Div Block called nav-wrapper to hold your three main elements:
• Left links group
• Center logo
• Right links group

2. Add Navbar Content

• Inside nav-wrapper, add three Div Blocks:

1. nav-left: For your left navigation links (e.g., "Shop", "Color Finder").
2. nav-center: For the logo (e.g., Pantone logo).
3. nav-right: For right-hand links (e.g., "Login", "Search").

3. Apply Flexbox to Align Items

• Select the nav-wrapper and:

• Set Display to Flex.

• Set Justify to Space-between.

• Set Align to Center.

• This will push the left and right groups to the sides and keep the logo centered.

4. Style Each Section

• Set a fixed or relative width (or max width) to nav-left and nav-right so they don't push the center logo off.
• Optionally, use Auto margins on the center element or apply Text Align: Center if necessary.

5. Make It Responsive

• On smaller breakpoints:
• Consider hiding nav-left and nav-right and using a Menu button.
• Change flex direction to Column if stacking is required.

6. Fine-Tune Spacing and Typography

• Add appropriate padding inside nav-wrapper or the Navbar for spacing.
• Style text links and logo to match your desired aesthetics (matching fonts, sizes, colors, etc.).

Summary

To replicate Pantone’s centered navbar, build a three-part flexbox layout inside a custom navigation bar—left links, centered logo, and right links. Use Flex: Space-between and center alignment to position everything cleanly, then style for different screen sizes.
