Lastly, the Settings tab allows you to adjust the Background, Title Size and Color, Text Color, and as well enable Advanced Button Styling, which will grant you more options to customize your buttons. Arrows can also be stylized by enabling Advanced Arrow Styling. (Mostly coloring options for both Buttons and Arrows)
