To align text in the middle of the screen in Webflow, regardless of screen size or device, without it being affected by the presence of a nav bar, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a section: First, create a new section in your Webflow project where you want the text to be aligned. This section will act as a container for the text.

  2. Set the section's position: Select the section and go to the Styles panel. Under the Position section, make sure the position is set to Relative. This will allow you to position the text inside the section accurately.

  3. Set the section's display: In the Styles panel, under Display, set the display property to Flex. This will enable you to dynamically align content within the section.

  4. Align the text vertically: Still in the Styles panel, under Align, set the Flexbox align property to Center. This will vertically align the text within the section.

  5. Center the text horizontally: To horizontally center the text, you need to utilize the Webflow's Flexbox capabilities.

  • Add a div element inside the section and place your text inside it.
  • Select the div element and go to its Styles panel. Under Flexbox, set the Direction property to Column. This will ensure the elements inside it stack vertically.
  1. Adjust the content width: If you want to limit the width of the text, select the div element and go to the Styles panel. Set the Width property to a desired value, such as 80% or a specific pixel size.

  2. Style the text: Lastly, style the text within the div per your design preferences. You can adjust font size, line height, and other styling properties in the Typography section of the Styles panel.

By following these steps, your text will be aligned in the middle of the screen, unaffected by the presence of a nav bar or changes in screen size or device.
