The Following options are listed in the User Interface Style section:

The Compact style puts all controls inline, in a much more compact fashion than the default.

Modern style components were offered on a per component basis in WP Go Maps version 7 and below. Those controls have now been moved (please see below for compatibility options) to the global User Interface Style.

The Modern style features clean, minimal components inside the map panel, some of which pop out from the side.

The Minimal style is similar to the Compact style, however it uses icons and placeholders as opposed to full text labels.

The Bare Bones style is aimed at proficient designers who don’t wish to use the built in styles.

Bare Bones will only load the absolute minimum necessary CSS for the plugin, with practically all components left unstyled.

This means you can work on your own CSS unencumbered with overriding the built in CSS.

Legacy mode uses the CSS which shipped with version 7 and below, unchanged.

This is the default mode for users who had previously been running version 7 or below (as opposed to fresh installs).
