Currently I have the following jQuery UI button:
$('#button').button( { label: 'Test', icons: {primary: 'ui-icon-circle-plus', secondary: null} } );
I wish to use own image for the button called 'custom.png'.
How I can achieve that?
Take a look at Nick Craver's comment. I tried his answer it exactly as is, but it still didn't help me. The issue (I assume) was that the ui-icon-custom
class was at the end of the class list, and didn't seem to override it to original ui-icon
class background image.
What I did to get it to work was add !important to the end of the icon css like so
.ui-icon-custom { background-image: url(images/custom.png) !important; }
You might have to change the height and width properties, but this worked for me.
Define a style yourself, like this:
.ui-icon-custom { background-image: url(images/custom.png); }
Then just use it when calling .button()
, like this:
$('#button').button({ label: 'Test', icons: {primary: 'ui-icon-custom', secondary: null} });
This assumes that your custom icon is in the images folder beneath your CSS...the same place as the jQuery UI icon map typically is. When the icon's created it gets a class like this: class="ui-icon ui-icon-custom"
, and that ui-icon
class looks like this (maybe a different image, depending on theme):
.ui-icon { width: 16px; height: 16px; background-image: url(images/ui-icons_222222_256x240.png); }
So in your style you're just overriding that background-image
, if needed change the width, height, etc.
