Font Settings
The Font settings (Figure 4) sets properties for the Font color, Font family, Font style and Font size. If you choose a Responsive Font size, the font will change size if the toolbar object is re-sized. Using responsive text is the preferred alternative and make sure to use the same option throughout the Toolbar to avoid some texts not changing size.

Layout Settings
The Layout Settings (Figure 6) contains sliders which allow you to set the Margin between elements and the Elements padding (the area between each element). The padding is split into four different settings to allow you to set the Top, Bottom, Left and Right padding independently. For centered alignment, make sure to set the padding to the same number for Top/Bottom and Left/Right, respectively.
