Applying CSS to SAPUI5 button

[#1]

Hello All,

I am trying to change the color of button text by applying css to sap.m.Button. For this, I have created css file with following content and included it using index.html.

      .myRedButton {

         color: red;

      } 

Then I tried to apply the color to the button as follows:

<Button class="myRedButton" text="Press Me"/>

However, the button text always comes with default color. When I inspected the button using chrome, I can see the color attribute from my custom class is striked out and it is picking up color from standard sapMBInner class (highlighted the details in the following image)

If i disable color attribute from sapMBtnInner class (from chrome), it is picking up myREdButton class and the button text changes to red.

I don't want to redefine sapMBtnInner class as it would affect all the buttons. Can you please tell me what is wrong in my implementation.

Regards,

Faddy

Hi Dennis,

That resolved my issue. I have tried in similar ways before. But the mistake which I made was, I did not put space between .myRedButton and .sapMBtnInner.

Thanks for your help
