Icon button on the very right.#

Icons are fairly central to modern-looking UI design; this Element allows you to put an icon in a button. Edifice comes with the Font Awesome (https://fontawesome.com) regular and solid icon sets, to save you time from looking up your own icon set. You can specify an icon simplify using its name (and optionally the sub_collection).

Example:

IconButton(name="share", on_click: self.share)

will create a button with a share icon.

You can browse and search for icons here: https://fontawesome.com/icons?d=gallery&s=regular,solid

Parameters:
  • name – name of the icon. Search for the name on https://fontawesome.com/icons?d=gallery&s=regular,solid

  • size – size of the icon.

  • collection – the icon package. Currently only font-awesome is supported.

  • sub_collection – for font awesome, either solid or regular
