Breadcrumbs Element
The Breadcrumbs element is available across all three builders. The Content Builder, the Header Builder and the Footer Builder. The purpose of the element is to output a breadcrumbs of the existing page you are on. For example if your domain was example.com/blog/new-post and you placed the breadcrumb element on the post, it'd output "Home -> Blog -> New Post" with each part of the breadcrumb being clickable linking to it's original location.
An important aspect to note with the Breadcrumbs element is that in the builders it'll output a sample breadcrumb. It doesn't output the correct breadcrumb until you've saved and actually visit the front-end page itself.
Presets
First of all you'll see the Apply Preset option, but just what is a preset? A preset is a pre-configured option pack of sorts. When you apply the preset all the controls are automatically changed to the specified value in the presets. Right now the presets represent each different stack. Providing quick starting points for getting your elements styled perfectly to match your stack. Apply a preset and then tinker to your hearts content.
Controls
All elements come with a range of different controls and the Button element is no different. While many of the controls are self explanatory in what they effect, we'll cover the basics and any major points you need to be aware about in each article. Every article will also cover the basics such as Flexbox, Interactions and more!
Flexbox
Just what is Flexbox and what makes it so flexible? Flexbox is a layout mode intended to accomodate multiple elements on a page in different configuration layouts for a variety of screen sizes. It's generally easy to work with once you get to grips with it and provides an array of configuration elements for start positions, end position and everything in between.
While Flexbox may seem daunting at first. Don't worry! There are a range of multiple tutorials online and in all our builders we have multiple configuration options that means you never have to touch a line of code! So you properly understand Flex options, we'd recommend having a ready up over here: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/ on how exactly Flexbox works. While you don't need to worry about the code side. It's important to have a basic grasp of how Flexbox works to make the most of the builders. Or of course there's always the trial and error approach.
Interactions
Throughout the elements you'll see options for interactions, but just what are interactions? Interactions generally means when an element is being interacted with. Such as on hover. For example on a Background Color option you'll have the Base option which is the main background color of the element. Then you'll have the Interaction option, setting this to a different color from base will display a different color on hover.
You'll also see interactions for icons where you can swap out icons on hover. Allowing you to configure different options for on hover. Making for some great effects with swapping out icons on hover.
Margins and paddings. EMs, REMs, Pixels and more!
With all the margins, paddings and other height and width based options, along with some sizing options. You'll see the option to change the actual unit value. This means you might set one control to be 2.5 EMs such as the width. But then on your margin you might set it to be 50px. The available unit options are:
Keep in mind wherever you see an option for unit values just click the current unit value like this: 
This will then show up the unit selector like this: 
Linking Sides
One thing you'll see in common across multiple controls is the ability to link sides. This means that if you link sides on the padding controls, all the padding controls will be the same value. However if you unlink the padding controls, you can then control each side independently allowing for greater control.
If you have link sides on for the respective set of controls you will not see the individual options.
Particles
Many of the elements use what's known as the "Particles Partials". But just what are Particles and how can use them? Check out our great mini video series over on this KB article.
Available Controls
Like all the other elements, the Breadcrumbs element controls are split into multiple parts being:
- Setup
- Design
- Delimiter
- Links
- Customize
Most of the controls themselves are covered above and are reasonably self explanatory in what they do and what they modify.
Delimiter Controls
The delimiter controls are the most interesting as they control the setup of the part between the links, one option is to have the delimiter type set to icons, allowing you to choose from the full icon library providing a dose of creativity to what is a traditionally rather straightforward element.
