Who knew you could add a custom image to a button?
Who knew I could use PowerPoint to create different coloured icons?

Always learning... thanks Adam!

With SVG you can always tinker with the values when you open the files in any text editor, if no Color found you can lookup SVG Color fill

Thanks Adam! It’s insane, Thank you for whole Tutorial

[MijalisMendiz]

Great video! I use a different but simillar approach. I create a "Negative Icon" (Transparent) and play with the buttons background color, that way I just need only one image and maintnance is easier in case you need to change colors, you don't need to create new versions of the icons all the time

[JaxonVerhoff]

This. This changed my life. Thank you.

[alchems]

wow, incredible! I've always used shapes for my buttons, I didn´t knew that it can change the color by just passing the mouse over there!

[egorshiyanov]

@GuyInACube Hey Adam, in many ways I am still a Power BI newbie and love learning from your tutorials. How do I get the On Hover and/or On Press settings to stay on after the button is pressed so my users can see which button is active?

[brunnosalves]

Didn't even know there was the Custom Icon option...

[IngridAvocegamou]

Thanks! These hover buttons in PowerBI were a struggle

[TSmitty]

Q: is there any kind of way to make the text be in the center of the button just like the default Navigator button shapes

[dravetch]

Where did you get your svg files? Thank you very much.

[zzota]

Really cool. I'll definitely be using that!

[JerryTiberlake]

before I know you can add icons on buttons, I used emoticons but the cons of this sometimes different browser and different versions render the emoticons differently

Hello Adam, Can I have a box around multiple action buttons?

[akhilaap]

Hi I need to select multiple values for a parameter column when opening a power bi template.. currently only one value can be selected. I need to select more than one value.. please assist..

[yyymmmddd]

Yes, this is "bananas". The "onions" :) though are that Microsoft for years can not fix background color to stick to the borders when they are set to rounded.

Very nice, but do you have too much time on your hands?
