Need more icons for modern button and tooltip

I am wondering when they are going to add rest of the Fluent icons to the modern button control. I am using icons that look closest to the button action, not a good way to deliver experience. Additionally, adding tooltip property to it would be very helpful when the icons cannot say much. Anyone has any idea when any update is expected?

I would recommend PG, while adding rest of the icons, give us a way to add custom icons by adding SVG for the icon property for button and menus.

Thanks,

Manish

Need more icons for modern button and tooltip

@ManishM

Were you able to get a response on when the additional icons may be added to Power Apps?

I would like to use some of the other fluent UI icons for the modern buttons, and they are very limited at the moment.

Modern buttons and icons seem like a partial implementation with such a limited icon selection.

Manual work arounds require adding a number of additonal controls to an app to work around this limitation, for example https://www.matthewdevaney.com/power-apps-button-with-icon-and-text/

@DavidZoon

Thank you for your response. I am enquiring if anyone has insight into roughly when remainder of the icons would get implemented.

Hello,

You can use SVG code in image objects which will open up an infinite number of possibilities for icons

The current feature is that the button only contains a subset of fluent icons.

The rest would probably be added in the future.

Here is the list of all fluent ui icons but adding them in the app doesn't work.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
