Using FloatButton with FloatPanel

FloatButton is commonly used to trigger a FloatPanel.

The FloatPanel is opened using a Navigate action, defined as follows:

• Click +ADD ACTION → onClick → assign the Navigate action.
• Set the target panel type to FloatPanel.
• The FloatPanel serves as an alternative to Drawer and Modal components.
  

Use Cases

• A “+” button for adding new records
• Opening a help or support panel
• Launching a feedback or comment form
• Displaying additional settings or operations

FloatButton is an ideal solution for applications aiming to keep the user interface clean while providing quick access to actions.
