Studio Editor: Adjusting the Layout of New Menus
With our latest menu component, you can change the layout of a single menu for each individual breakpoint — making it even easier to design your client's site across screen sizes.
Once you've chosen a menu type (layout), use the customization options to make it look exactly how you want.
Adjusting the layout of horizontal menus
Horizontal navigation bar menus have a ton of options, giving you full creative control over their layout. You can choose how overflow items are displayed, enable an icon for dropdowns, and more.
To adjust the layout of a horizontal menu:
Click the menu in your editor.
Click the Layout icon
.
Click Navigation bar under Menu type.
Select Horizontal from the Orientation dropdown.
Use the options to adjust the layout:
Overflow items
Choose how items that don't fit inside the menu are displayed:
Wrap: Another line is added to the menu to display the rest of the items.
Scroll: Visitors can scroll to see the rest of the menu items. Choose whether to enable or disable the Show scroll button toggle:
Enabled: A scroll button is displayed on the menu. Adjust the padding around it to make it bigger or smaller.
