Hello Antonio!

I'll answer to each question as clearly as possible:

1 - You can not add a different color automatically to each menu item. What you can do in order to achieve the same result is hide the main menu and create a menu in the header section. You will then be able to create your own buttons, add text in them and add a link to each one in order to go to your page, just like your main menu would do.

2 - If you create the menu as described above you will not be able to have the drop down menu. If you wish to have a horizontal drop down menu, you have to add personal HTML code in order to achieve the result.

Hello Samantha and Antonio !

I've done a very simple test with multi-colored horizontal  menu with only one picture and all buttons on the same line, to a french user :

French post here to see the pictures joigned if you want :

but effectively the submenu will stay in only one color...

If this idea may help Antonio ?
