To change the font color of the active tab on your portfolio website in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Select the tab element: Open the Webflow Designer and locate the tab element that you want to style. This could be a navigation menu, a tabbed content section, or any other element that contains the tab component.

  2. Access the Active state: With the tab element selected, look for the "States" panel on the right-hand side of the Designer. Click on the "Active" state to enter the styling options for the active tab.

  3. Change the font color: Within the styling options for the active state, locate the "Text" category. Here, you can modify the font color properties. You can either enter a specific color code or use the color picker to select a new color.

  4. Preview and fine-tune: After changing the font color, it's advisable to preview your changes to ensure they look as expected. Use the Webflow preview mode or publish your site to see the updated font color for the active tab. If needed, go back to the Designer and make further adjustments until you're satisfied with the result.

  5. Repeat for other tab elements: If you have multiple tab elements on your website, you may need to repeat these steps for each one to apply the desired font color to their active states.
