To vertically center the icons from Font Awesome in a Webflow button, you can follow these steps:
- Add a Button element to your Webflow project.
- Inside the button, create a new Div block by right-clicking within the button and selecting "Create Div."
- Give the Div block a class name by selecting it and going to the Styles panel on the right-hand side. In the Class field, enter a unique class name (e.g., "button-icon-container").
- Drag and drop an Icon element from the Add panel into the Div block you created.
- Customize the Icon element by selecting it and going to the Styles panel. Here, you can choose the icon you want from Font Awesome's library and adjust its size, color, and other styling options to suit your design.
- In the Styles panel, navigate to the Flex property section.
- Enable Flex positioning by clicking on the Flex checkbox.
- By default, the Flex property aligns items horizontally. To center the icon vertically, you need to change the flex-direction. In the Flex Direction dropdown, select "Column" so that the elements are aligned vertically.
- You will notice that the button's height automatically increases to match the height of the icon. You can adjust the height of the button by selecting the Button element itself and adjusting its height in the Styles panel.
- Lastly, you can further customize the button's appearance using additional styling options, such as changing the background color, border, or adding padding.
By following these steps, you can easily vertically center Font Awesome icons within a Webflow button and achieve a visually appealing design.
