Button questions types have been added to Design and to Produce, windows app and mobile apps, there is a Button icon in the toolbar and a tile icon in the tree view on the right-hand side in Design.
Options and features:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Text position | Top, Left, none as standard. |

| Size | Small, Medium, Wide and Large are the options. They appear in the preview so the user can see how they will look. |
| Title | (optional) This is text that appears on the bottom right of the button. This shows in the preview. If the title is too long it will just be cut off - it does not wrap. |
| Badge | (optional) This is small text (75% of the title size) with a dark background that appears at the top right of the button. This shows in the preview. If the badge is too long it will just be cut off - it does not wrap. |
| Icon | This is an image that appears in the center of the button - if the image loaded is too large it will not appear centered and may overlap the title or not fit on the button at all. It is visible in the preview. |
| Button Style | (Shown for "Button" display type only) If no style is selected, or none are available, the question will use a default style matching what is shown in the Design preview. |
Type Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Toggle | Allows for actions based on whether the button answer is selected or not. Button toggle color -** will replace the default blue of the button when selected - you cannot toggle the button in the preview, so you cannot preview this setting. |

Note
A color picker is used to select and show the colors for properties or you can enter a manual hex code.
Blurry Text
You might notice that some of the text on your buttons is blurry.
This can happen because there's a text shadow from the original base style. Ensure that the text-shadow setting is disabled to fix it.
