ion-fab-button

Floating Action Buttons (FABs) represent the primary action in an application. By default, they have a circular shape. When pressed, the button may open more related actions. As the name suggests, FABs generally float over the content in a fixed position. This is not achieved exclusively by using an <ion-fab-button>FAB</ion-fab-button>. They need to be wrapped with an <ion-fab> component in order to be fixed over the content.

If the FAB button is not wrapped with <ion-fab>, it will scroll with the content. FAB buttons have a default size, a mini size and can accept different colors:

Usage

Angular / javascript

<ion-content>

  <!-- Fixed Floating Action Button that does not scroll with the content -->

  </ion-fab>

  <!-- Default Floating Action Button that scrolls with the content.-->
  <ion-fab-button>Default</ion-fab-button>

  <!-- Mini -->
  <ion-fab-button size="small">Mini</ion-fab-button>

  <!-- Colors -->
  <ion-fab-button color="primary">Primary</ion-fab-button>
  <ion-fab-button color="secondary">Secondary</ion-fab-button>
