Lovely to have icons with actions in glide pages, but they don’t appear in the drop down menu of a card collection

Unfortunately, action icons are not currently supported in the drop down menu of a card collection. However, you can still add action icons to the title bar of a card collection. Learn more about action icons here.

The closest thing you can do is try to use the “Hero Icons” column in your database and use the result as an image in a card collection.

i do use hero icons as images in collections with a mix of background colors as well, but how would hero icons appear next to actions in the drop down menu?  
for every collection item i have several actions such as delete for example which can have a trash icon next to it

I think this is a fair feature request to keep it consistent with the new button designs. This post is more “feature request” than “ask for help” since what you want isn’t currently available.
