Floating Action Button?

[dontpanic21]

Hi, is there a floating action button or equivalent in fluent-blazor? or maybe a property that sets the FluentButton appearance like a FAB?

thanks

I have no idea what a floating action button is or what that is supposed to look like. Can you elaborate?

Its a button that appears over the top of other content, usually not tied to a grid or other layout. Think of the 'compose' button on your email on your phone, it 'floats' over other content and has a raised/shadow effect.

heres an example from mudblazor -

MudBlazor/MudBlazor#1002

I think it can probably be done with just CSS/HTML but I'm not sure how well that works in with Fluent components

Ok, thanks. We have no plans to add this as it is not part of the Fluent Design.

It might indeed be possible to do it with current components, CSS and Javascript. But I consider it as a community effort to come up with an implementation.

I've only been doing blazor for a short time and started with mudblazor, because it seemed the most complete of the free offerings, but fluent is pretty close and in my opinion just a nicer look and feel which is why I shifted. The FAB has become a standard component in web UI so it would be good to have it in Fluent.
