Problem:
When I click "New Filter", I don't see the "Toolset Maps" section with the distance button below it as an option. Should this be there by default or do I need to do something else?

Hello,
For the problem: I don't see the "distance" button.
Are you using block editor to create the view?
The "ordering the result by distance" feature does not avaiable in block editor, you will need to try lagacy classic editor, for example:
Dashboard-> Toolset-> Settings-> General:
in section "Editing experience", enable option "Show both the legacy and Blocks interface and let me choose which to use for each item I build".
Then create the post view with lagacy way: Dashboard-> Toolset-> Views, follow below document to setup the location filters and order the result by distance:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/maps/display-on-google-maps/filtering-and-ordering-map-markers-by-distance/
And here is the screenshot for "Distance" button.
It is abnormal, please check these:
1) Make sure you have setup the Google map API
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/maps/display-on-google-maps/creating-a-google-maps-api-key/
2) Make sure you have setup the custom address field in your website:
See screenshot add-field.JPG
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/custom-content/using-custom-fields/
3) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate all other plugins, and switch to wordpress default theme 2020, and test again
4) If the problem still persists, please provide database dump file(ZIP file) of your website, also point out the problem page URL and view URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

It appears that the functionality works-- but the appearance sucks. See attached image. Is there any styling I can apply? I tried looking at a few articles and applying the styling, but there were no visible changes.

THIS IS THE STYLING THAT I HAVE APPLIED:
[wpv-filter-start hide="false"]
[wpv-filter-controls]
<div class="form-group">
<label>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"][/wpml-string]</label>
</div>
<div class="form-grouphorizontal"><font color="white">Search by Location (Press Enter to Search)</font>[wpv-control-distance distance_unit_url_param="toolset_maps_distance_unit" distance_radius_url_param="toolset_maps_distance_radius" distance_center_url_param="toolset_maps_distance_center" compare_field="address" default_distance="20" default_unit="mi"]
</div>
[wpv-filter-submit output="bootstrap"]
[/wpv-filter-controls]
[wpv-filter-end]
I don't know if there's anything that you can do to help point me in the right direction?
Thank you for your help!
