Configuration
All buttons with a container have the same height and border radius, but the width varies based on the amount of content. Buttons in a row are all horizontally centered. When a Play button is placed on an image, it is both horizontally and vertically centered and stays the same size no matter how big or small the image gets.
Space
Space values are the same on all breakpoints for the following buttons. To see space values when buttons are grouped, go to the Guidelines page.
Helpful tip
Buttons include a custom 6px
spacer, do not use it anywhere else.
Example | Token | Description |
---|---|---|
6 | --rh-space-sm | 6px spacer |
8 | --rh-space-md | 8px spacer |
16 | --rh-space-lg | 16px spacer |
