Customize button widget

SarahRijneke

Hello,

I found a post that suggests some options for changing the background colour of a button widget. Is it possible to customize buttons further? I want more control over the appearance of the text.

My current use case: I am working on transitioning a StoryMaps classic over to a new application before it's retired. The application used the old StoryMaps accordion template, which is no longer available, and it looks like I might be able to replicate it in Experience Builder. The application has a text box on the left side of the screen and map of roads on the right. At the bottom left of the screen, the user clicks on some text in the accordion in order to switch the view to some text with a map of sidewalks (exact same look and feel as the roads). My thought is to use a button in the lower left corner to duplicate this functionality but the button lacks pizazz- it isn't obvious that the user should click there to access the other map.

The options for customizing the appearance of a Button are somewhat limited. A workaround is to use a Card Widget. This will give you much more control over the appearance of your "button" and Cards can be used with the Set Link options, but you will not have access to the Button Click Action. 

To do this, add a Card Widget. Scroll to the bottom of the Template options and select Empty Template. Design your "button" as you wish by adding Text and/or Image Widgets.
