Hi there,
 
Is there any way to set-up the icon in a modern button?
 
I have a collection:
 
ClearCollect(colMainMenu,
 
{Name:"Hardware", Order: 1 , ID: 1, Icon:Icon.Print },
 
{Name:"Software", Order: 2 , ID: 2, Icon: Icon.Save})
 
 
And in a gallery I put a button and I want that the icon of the button takes the value from the collection:
 
ThisItem.Icon
 
But the icon is not working and it shows just a circle.
 
 
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help!

    Modern buttons are a bit different. You don't actually use the Icon.Print. You just enter "Print". So your collection will just store that text value "Print". 
     
     
    See if that doesn't help fix your issue.

    Great observation its wierd issue but this will be the work around for your case.
     
    Instead of setting up the Icon property, I concat both icon and Name in the Text property.
     
    Hope this will helps you!
