Yes, I have tried using the mix-blend-mode:difference property on Webflow navigation elements. This property allows you to change the blending mode between elements in CSS, resulting in interesting visual effects. When applied to navigation elements, it can create a visually striking and unique design for your website. Here's how you can use the mix-blend-mode:difference property in Webflow:

Open your Webflow project and enter the Designer.
Select the navigation element you want to apply the mix-blend-mode:difference property to. This could be your navbar, menu items, or any other element within the navigation structure.
In the Style panel on the right-hand side, scroll down to the "Advanced" section.
Click on the "+" button to add a new CSS property.
In the newly added property field, type "mix-blend-mode" and select "difference" from the dropdown options.
Save your changes and preview the design to see the mix-blend-mode:difference effect applied to your navigation elements.

Using the mix-blend-mode:difference property can create a variety of visual effects, such as making the navigation elements blend in with the background, creating an overlay effect, or producing a contrasting color scheme. It's important to note that the final result will depend on the surrounding elements and design choices made throughout the website.

Additionally, keep in mind that mix-blend-mode is not supported in all web browsers. It is primarily supported in modern browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. Before implementing this property, it's recommended to test your design across different browsers to ensure it degrades gracefully.

Example:

.nav-item {  mix-blend-mode: difference;}

In conclusion, using the mix-blend-mode:difference property in Webflow can add a visually appealing and unique touch to your navigation elements. Experiment with this property to create captivating designs that stand out.
