Button: arrow
An ACSS button with an arrow after its label. On hover the arrow leaves to the right and a second one arrives from the left; the button keeps its width.

What you can build with it
A primary call to action that points the way forward. A read more or next step link styled as a button. A header button that answers the pointer without shouting.
Props
label (text); href (url); style (select: primary, outline); size (select: default, large)
States shown
Rest, hover, focus, active. Reduced motion: the arrow stays put.
How to change it
Content and options are 4 props in the component's settings panel. Colour, type, spacing and radius follow your Automatic.css settings, so a change to the site's palette or scale changes this too. For anything else, edit the classes in the Style Manager, starting with .button-row, .motion-btn, .motion-btn-arrow.
ACSS tokens used
ACSS button tokens (–btn-*), –primary, –on-primary, –white, –black, –transition.
ACSS requirements
ACSS 4 defaults with its button classes. Nothing to install.
