Hi everyone,

So I have the title at the top of my page.

I have 2 actions - “review” and “favorite” (or unfavorite if it’s already favorited).

However, I can’t seem to get the “favorite” one to fully show, it’s just dots. This is the case even on desktop, when there is ample space.

Any idea how?

I am using actions within a title component instead of buttons.

Can you provide a little more context, eg:

- Is it inside a container?
- If yes, how is the container configured?
- Which Title style are you using?

hmm, I’m not sure. Even if I add a 3rd button, the first two remain fully visible.

It probably won’t make any difference, but you could lose one button by combining the 2nd & 3rd into a single action. Use an if-then-else column to create a dynamic button label, and then use a custom action with a conditional branch.

The other thing you could try is change your container to 1:1 or 2:1, and add a button block in the right hand panel, instead of having the actions on the Title component.

Your set column action is setting nothing. Can you add somthing you want to set, this way maybe the button shows up again

May be not showing because the button is doing ‘no action’.

It’s just the way mobile layout works…

yeah, but he mentioned that it was the same in desktop view, which is what threw me…

Oh dang, I can’t replicate that by any means.

My guess is he has 3 actions and the middle action is disabled/ condition not met.

I think you nailed it, Eric 👍  
I can reproduce that.

Looking at his earlier screen shot:

 ![CleanShot 2023-12-17 at 18.34.18@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/5/a54c3187950c9663d208916ab93e9fc7599fb776.png)

I’m guessing that he has conditions on the 2nd and 3rd buttons so that one of them is only available at a time, and so when the middle one is disabled he gets the three dots.

@Adam_Chambers the simple fix for this is to get rid of one of those buttons, as I described in an earlier reply:

Exactly, as I said above, the 2nd action (set column) may be with no condition/disabled
