When creating buttons there is the library of icons that can be added with (or without) the button's text label. It's a mini collection of "usual suspects" but doesn't always cover what I'd prefer to use. It is possible to add additional icons for use on buttons? If not, what would folks recommend for adding custom icons? Importing a transparent PNG icon and laying it on top of the button?
Understood, that's what it will have to be! When I see the icon ability, I think of how nice it might be to add add'l icons for that "in Storyline" editing of the size & color of the icons (sizing of imported images does seem to scale really well in Storyline). But of course, creating whatever imagery outside is certainly a tried and true practice. Thanks Michael for the notes and screen grab.
Hi Scott! Glad that Michael was able to assist you here.
On another note, be sure that you send in those things that you think would be nice in the form of a feature request. It can't hurt and our developers want to know what the customer wants
This thread is a bit older, but I have a question about it...
When I do this manipulation, I have a problem, I want the cursor to change in hand when I hover the button, unfortunately, when I add a picture in the states of my button, the hand does not appear anymore, so the user don't know that he can click on this button.
Thanks for your answer, here I give you a screenshot of my problem, and I attach the .story file, this way we can see if I'm the only one to have this problem

If the built-in icons are not sufficient, you can always edit the state(s)of a button and add any icon/bitmap to it.
Here is some info on editing states.
Hi Scott! Looks like Michael has you covered here, so just let us know how that suggestion works and if you need anything further.

Sorry for my english, I'm French...
If someone can help me... Thanks
Hi Aurore!
I'm not sure that I'm following what you are explaining. Do you have a .story file that we can take a look at?

Thank you for the additional details and for the image. We do not support the HTML5 output in Firefox as you can see in our documentation here.
Thank you Leslie, I feel a bit idiot now, I should read this first..
Thanks again for your answer!
No worries Aurore :) Glad to be able to assist.
