buttonWidget

I got few questions on buttonWidget.

1) a!buttonWidget(

label:"Groups"

)

The label defined inside buttonWidget always displays in Upper case on Interface. Is there any workaround to show the label in the lower case?

 

2)a!buttonWidget(

label:"+"

)

Is there any work around to increase the size of the "+" sign inside the button layout without increasing the button size?

    /*Button Widget labels are always uppercase, that is just the style of the user interfaces. A workaround would be to use links instead of buttons, using either a!richTestDisplayField or a!linkField */

    a!richTextDisplayField(
    value: a!richTextItem(
    text: "lowercase label",
    link: a!dynamicLink(
    /*Code link*/
    )
    )
    )

    a!linkField(
    links: a!dynamicLink(
    label: "lowercase label"
    /*code lines */
    )
    )

    /*we cannot increase the size of text within the button. A workaround would be to use an a!documentImage with the built-in "ADD" icon, or upload your own image*/

    a!imageField(
    images: a!documentImage(
    document: a!iconIndicator(
    "ADD"
    )
    )
    )

    /*I would also suggest looking for other work arounds as well. While Appian has its limits with button User interfaces, we are using only the "action verbs" as your button text will help to alleviate some of the problems you are finding.*/
