Thanks. Based on this topic, @jared might have some ideas: > [@How to make a floating action button (10-min solve)](https://community.thunkable.com/t/how-to-make-a-floating-action-button-10-min-solve/568583): > > the floating actin button brings you one step closer to the professional app feel! check it out the concept is pretty simple once you try it a few times. place a column on the screen. that becomes your screen now. make the screen not scrollable. make the column scrollable. add any screen content to the column. now add a row, above the column in the component tree. make the row height 8px. st the row positioning to absolute. position the row where you want it. then add a button.

In the new interface (DnD), just add the button in the place you want it. Example, If you have a scrolling text box, you can place the button anywhere over the text box and you will be able to scroll the text box and in the same time click the button. ---

Excuse me but I don’t understand, I want it to be as it is in the screenshot. Could you pass some similar example to be able to what it refers to? Thank you. ---

thanks for the example, but the FAB button when touching does not display the other buttons, which is what I am looking for as the screenshot. ---

Try this quick demo [https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6239b1a36952010011d1bbac](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6239b1a36952010011d1bbac) When you click on the button it will toggle the other buttons show/hide status. ---

This is the problem with giving the bare minimum description in your posts. It’s hard to know exactly what you want. Hopefully, @muneer’s demo will be what you’re looking for. ---
