Man, it’s EXTREMELY buggy. It you change it to, let’s say, transparent, and then change it back to filled, then it turns into a regular button, and not a floating button.

Hmm… well can’t say I’ve tested it, just that I’ve seen it! Haha… hopefully the bugs get identified and resolved quickly!

Yeah, I would have thought that you could change back and forth between a regular button and a floating button. Seems that once you change the style (Show As), you are stuck with a regular button. It’s not showing the floating style like staging shows.

It’s BEAUTIFUL! 👏 👏 👏

Makes such a difference in the Professional Network App I’m working on. Now users can add a new post as they’re scrolling and don’t have the scroll to top first!

Looks like it’s fixed now. Definitely going to replace my CSS floaters tonight. Still would like a semi-transparent blurred float option someday. 😉

Beautiful, who would have thought such a small thing would add so much to the user experience.

@Rosewebstudio yes, I considered how that might sound when I wrote it…maybe I meant it both ways. I’m a multi-tasker 😉

It will - give it a minute. I was halfway thru rebuilding a button and that 5th choice showed up on the regular button control.

Mine is more of an oval shape - I will assume it depends on the type of icon you choose?

Anyone else?
