Yes, it is possible to swap out icons in a button component in Webflow without detaching the component or compromising the ability to change the color of the SVGs. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Select the button component: In the Webflow Designer, select the button component that contains the icon you want to swap out.

  2. Open the Icon element: Inside the button component, you will find an Icon element. Click on it to open its settings.

  3. Choose the desired SVG icon: In the Icon settings panel, you will see a drop-down menu where you can select an SVG icon from a library of options. If you have uploaded custom SVG files, you can choose them from this menu as well.

  4. Customize the icon color: By default, Webflow allows you to change the color of SVG icons within the button component. To do this, click on the color picker next to the Icon element settings and choose the desired color.

  5. Repeat for other button components: If you have multiple button components that need different icons, simply repeat the above steps for each button component.

By following these steps, you can easily swap out icons in a button component in Webflow without detaching the component or compromising the ability to change the color of the SVGs. This allows you to maintain consistency across your website design while also customizing button icons as needed.
