I saw this awesome template video. In this video, when a new button is add, the default Fill option is "Button.Fill" instead a standard RGB option.

 

Does anyone how to do to this?

    "Button.Fill" is just referencing the fill of another Button.

    So for instance if Button1 fill is Red and in Button2 fill you put Button1.Fill, Button2 will also be Red.

    I understand how this works but when he select a new button, the default fill option is Button.Fill instead the RGB color, how is that possible?

    Edited.

    After watching the video, button is a name of a variable that was set as part of the Settings for the App.

    So in the settings, you can point to the variable. When you create a new button, the default is button.fill instead RGB, hmm.

    Watch the video you attached fully. In the video, the is a template setting that is part of the template not Power Apps settings. Naturally, there's nothing like button.fill if you are not referring to another control like a button or dealing with a variable.

    In the case of the video you posted, it referring to a variable

    The posts above do not answer the question directly. I think what you want is this video. Summary: you have to download the .msapp file, then edit Themes.json file and reassemble the .msapp file. The video walks you through it and gives you the scripts you need. Credit to @iAm_ManCat for the original idea (original article here) and BulbDigital for the videos and blog post.
