To change the background color and elements on a navbar in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

Set the background color: In the Style panel on the right, you can find the Background section. Click on the color swatch to open the color picker, and choose your desired background color. You can also input a hex code or adjust the opacity of the color.
Modify the navbar elements: To change the elements within the navbar, you can add, remove, or customize them using either the navbar component options or by adding and styling individual elements inside the navbar.
Add a logo or text: To add a logo or text to the navbar, simply drag an image element or a text element into the navbar area. You can then customize the size, position, and styling of these elements.
Customize the menu icon: If you have a collapsed navbar, you can customize the appearance of the menu icon. Click on the menu icon element inside the navbar, and in the Style panel, you can modify its size, color, and other properties.
