Button
A button is a graphical representation of a command or action.
Much like
a machine button, when activated a button will execute its indicated command.
The most common buttons you will encounter are the buttons present in a toolbar
like for example
the Bold or Italics button that lets you format text. Also, dialogue windows
usually ask for input
in the form of buttons such as the "OK"and "OK"Cancel buttons. Most buttons
are activated by clicking on them.
