The settings available will depend on the element type.
# Common Settings
# Colors
This style of setting is used to set a custom background or font color for the element. You can either pick a color from the color picker or enter the hex color code if you are looking to match a specific color.
# Link
Some elements (for example buttons and images) can be linked to external resources by setting the Link setting.
# Padding
Padding is the amount of space left inside the element. You can modify the values separately for the top, left, right and bottom paddings.
Clicking on the Zero buttons will zero out that setting.
