-It's possible to import exported files as well as files with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values CSV] format. Use '''delimiter''' field to tell which delimiter is used in the provided CSV file. If the file has the columns with a title in the first row, tick the "First row as header?" field. The Menu Board is also able to grab the specified file periodically. To do so, tick the "Periodic" field and specify the time interval at which the Menu Board will get the file. That way you can update the data by just changing the file.

 Use the "Export data" button to export the data to be used in another Menu Board.

 Here you can configure the font like any regular text editor. If the '''horizontal alignment''' is left or right, '''indentation''' will become enabled so the component doesn't have to be in the edge of the component. It's also possible to configure '''vertical alignment''' but in this case it's not possible to add a vertical indentation. The '''size''' is automatic by default so it has the maximum size that fits in the component.
