You want the logo to use the 'Difference' blend mode for maximum contrast over a fullscreen black background navigation menu on mobile. Webflow supports blend modes, but ensuring correct visibility across backgrounds requires a few setup steps.
1. Set the Logo to Use 'Difference' Blend Mode
- Select your logo element in the Webflow Designer.
- In the Style Panel, scroll to the Effects section.
- Use the Blend Mode dropdown and select Difference.
- This will invert the colors of the logo against the background, maximizing contrast.
2. Create a Fullscreen Black Navigation Overlay
- Use a div block (e.g., "Nav Overlay") that appears on mobile when a menu icon is clicked.
- Set the div's position to fixed, top/left/right/bottom to 0, and z-index above your logo (unless you want the logo on top).
- Give this overlay a black background (
background-color: black
). - Set the overlay to display: none by default. Use interactions to display it when the menu opens.
3. Position the Logo Above or Inside the Overlay (Depending on Intent)
- If the logo should remain visible inside the fullscreen nav, move it inside the overlay div and position it as needed.
- If it should remain fixed in place, give it a higher z-index than the overlay.
4. Ensure Proper Blending on a Black Background
- Because ‘Difference’ blend mode works based on color contrast, placing it on a pure black background will invert white elements to white (which may make white logos invisible).
- If your logo is white, the Difference mode on black will make it appear white—but blending effects only work if the logo is above a background.
- If it’s not inverting correctly, make sure there’s no other background color or transparent layer between the logo and the black backdrop.
5. Handle Mobile Responsiveness
- Use Webflow’s mobile breakpoint settings to apply these styles (blend mode, position, etc.) only on mobile if needed.
- For example, set the blend mode only on mobile if it’s not required on desktop.
6. Optimize Z-Index for Interactions
- Z-index stacking is critical. Ensure that the blend mode layer (logo) is above any other divs but not beyond the nav overlay (if embedded).
- Double-check that the logo isn’t being overlaid by invisible elements, which would prevent the blend mode from rendering correctly.
Summary
To apply the Difference blend mode for a logo on mobile with a black fullscreen nav overlay, use the Blend Mode style, ensure the logo is placed above or within a black background, manage z-index layers, and configure interactions to show/hide the overlay as needed. The key is to ensure the logo is blending directly with the intended background layer.
