Detailed Description

ButtonControl provides a standardized button with hover and press visual feedback. It inherits from Button, so all standard Button properties (such as text and onClicked) are available.

The button colors can be customised via the normalColor, hoverColor, and pressedColor properties while keeping a consistent look across the simulation control panel.

Usage

ButtonControl {
    text: "Add"
    onClicked: backend.addItem()
}

Custom colors

ButtonControl {
    text: "Delete"
    normalColor: "#ffe0e0"
    pressedColor: "#ff8080"
    textColor: "#cc0000"
    onClicked: backend.removeItem(index)
}
