[Pro] Bootstrap NavBar

Is it possible to implement the Bootstrap navbar in Freeway pro 6?

Or is it possible to do similar in FW-native using Backdraft (Caleb Grove), I prefer!
There in no collapse in Backdraft in mobile-modus

I’m not a coder, only copy/paste.

Well, you can by inserting html code.

It should be possible to write a set of Actions to implement the Bootstrap framework in Freeway. The only major issue will be one of WYSIWYG – it’s going to be nearly like submarine driving to make a layout in Freeway and add the Bootstrap-ness to it and have any sort of visual feedback while you work. Part of what an Action solution would need to do is to remove all Freeway-generated sizing from any HTML boxes, and replace them with one of the Bootstrap “span” classnames.

Inline layouts in Freeway are fussy enough as it is, to then add the requirement that you make a layout that bears nearly no resemblance to how it will appear in a browser is probably taking this a step too far. You’re missing the whole benefit of Freeway as a design tool, and using it like a very awkward text editor instead. It’s like buying a Ferrari, and then using it to take a load of used bricks to the dump.

Thanks for your answers, I had send the same question to Caleb Grove and he answer the same as Walter.
A lot of work, a lot of risks and like merging water and fire.
But I won’t give yet, looking around I found this: http://responsive-nav.com
Smal, maybe simple!

Maybe this is good enough for building an Action or so.

I saw that, and I agree, it looks promising. The issue with this and any other system for a responsive site is that you must also structure the rest of your page in a manner which allows it to collapse. Either that is inline construction with minimum-sized internal blocks (so that if you scale down to iPhone vertical orientation size, you will see a running column of page elements with nothing sticking out the right side) or some technique like Caleb’s, where you use @media queries and extra stylesheets to produce a similar effect. Either way, you are well into the weeds of Freeway layout construction, where Freeway’s traditional strengths become its Achilles heel. Without that additional effort and planning, no amount of add-on features or Actions will ever give you what you want.
