Ingles por favor. Extensions do not work with X platform. If you want extensions then you need to use Classic ([app.thunkable.com](http://app.thunkable.com)) however you do not have iOS compatibility. It is a trade off you need to choose. Platform extensibility or features. ---

If you need a button on top of other elements and located in one place, you can see an example of it on the scrButtons screen in the project (this will be a big button with the + symbol.)

Floating buttons in Thunkable X are made by hand. I offer only a template or an idea of ​​how this can be done. ---

First you need to decide what the button should look like. After that, you need to determine what should happen when you press it. What are your difficulties? ---

Hello, I’m afraid that the functionality in Thunkable X will not allow you to do this. ---

You can use the ‘open link’ block to accomplish the function of the Activity Starter. [Here’s](http://community.thunkable.com/t/deep-linking-with-open-link-activity-starter-function/75652?u=jane) a post about it. ---

@allinfotec, and you can check out the sample app “FABulous” for an example of how to create your own FAB: > [@FAB (Floating Action Button) for Thunkable ✕](http://community.thunkable.com/t/fab-floating-action-button-for-thunkable/63780): > > Hey Thunkers, While there is no official FAB component for Thunkable ✕, you can create one with a few tricks. Here’s a [sample project called FABulous](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/5c339e5b08b6b44ebe31bdda) that showcases a FAB using the absolute position property in a Row component. These are properties that are used in ReactNative, which forms the basis for Thunkable ✕. The app also uses the Android / iOS device block to open the App Store if the device is on iOS and Play Store if the device is on Android. Happy Thun… ---

Hey all! I am trying to implement this on a scrollable page but am running into issues. As a note, this does work fine when using a non scrollable page or when using a webviewer that has scrollable content. Does anyone have experience using this on a screen that has scrollable content, such as a listviewer with many items? as a note, i did follow the instructions for a FAB from the tutorial above but it doesn’t work on a scrollable screen. Only over a web viewer for which the screen doesn’t scroll but the webviewere itself ---

It is totally doable even on scrolling screens. Create the button right under the screen component and set its positioning to absolute. I will let you experiment with the rest 😉 ---
