[[File:All Buttons.png|thumb|All buttons exept the pale oak button.]] A '''button''' is a [[non-solid block]] that produces a temporary [[redstone]] signal when pressed. == Variants == * [[Wooden Button]] ** {{BlockLink|Oak Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Spruce Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Birch Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Jungle Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Acacia Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Dark Oak Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Mangrove Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Cherry Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Pale Oak Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Bamboo Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Crimson Button}} ** {{BlockLink|Warped Button}} * {{BlockLink|Stone Button}} * {{BlockLink|Polished Blackstone Button}} == Obtaining == === Crafting === The crafting recipe is the same for all types and variants of buttons, using a single matching plank, stone, or polished blackstone block to craft the matching button. {{Crafting |head=1 |name=[[Wooden button]] |ingredients=Matching [[Planks]] |Matching Planks |Output= Matching Wooden Button |ignoreusage=1 }} {{Crafting |Stone;Polished Blackstone |Output=Stone Button;Polished Blackstone Button |ignoreusage=1 |foot=1 }} === Natural generation === Oak buttons can generate inside [[trial chambers]] between [[dispensers]] with random surprises or loots. {{IN|JE}}, stone buttons can generate inside [[stronghold]]s next to [[iron door]]s. Jungle buttons generate naturally on house walls in [[desert]] [[villages]]. Stone buttons can also generate in [[desert]] [[villages]], in armorer houses attached to [[granite]]. == Usage == {{hatnote|For more specific usage, see the individual button pages.}} === Redstone power === {{see also|Redstone circuit}} A button can be used as a [[monostable]] [[Redstone components#Power components|power source]] (it automatically deactivates shortly after being activated). A stone button stays on for 1 second (20 [[tick]]s, 10 [[Tick#Redstone tick|redstone ticks]]), while a wooden button stays on for 1.5 seconds (30 [[tick]]s, 15 [[Tick#Redstone tick|redstone ticks]]). ==== Placement ==== Buttons can be {{control|placed}} by {{control|using|use}} it on a surface. They can be attached to the side, bottom and top of any full opaque block. ==== Behavior ==== Buttons are usually in an inactive state, but can be temporarily activated by players. A button can be activated by {{control|using}} it. While active, a button: * powers any adjacent [[redstone dust]] to [[Redstone circuit#Power|power level]] 15, including beneath the button (if the button attaches to a vertical surface, or to the bottom of a block) * powers any adjacent [[redstone comparator]]s or [[redstone repeater]]s facing away from the button to power level 15. * strongly powers its attachment block to power level 15. * powers the block of air that it occupies, which in turn is able to power any adjacent redstone components, seemingly sending its power through the air. * activates any adjacent [[Redstone components#Mechanism components|mechanism components]], including above or below, such as [[piston]]s, [[redstone lamp]]s, etc. When a button changes state it provides a [[Redstone circuit#Redstone update|redstone update]] to all redstone components adjacent to itself (including above and below), and to all redstone components adjacent to its attachment block. === Breaking === A button is removed and drops as an item if: * its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed. * [[water]] or [[lava]] flows into its space.{{only|java}} * a [[piston]] tries to push it or moves a block into its space. == Block states == {{see also|Block states}} {{/BS}} == Video == {{yt|n7BP3NDpHtA}} == History == {{hatnote|This table only lists changes that affect buttons in general.
