๐ฏ Button Fix Complete - All Signals Now Working
December 6, 2025 - Button Rendering Fixed
โ BUTTON NOW WORKS PERFECTLY
Problem: Button showed "[Input Signal: Botรณn 2]" instead of actual button
Solution: Fixed all signal calls in UiButtonComponent template
๐ง The Fix
File: libs/libs-ui-core/ui-core/src/lib/components/ui-button/ui-button.component.html
ALL signals must be called with ()
Before (Broken):
<button
[attr.type]="type" <!-- โ Signal not called -->
[disabled]="disabled || loading" <!-- โ Signals not called -->
>
@if (loading) { <!-- โ Signal not called -->
<span class="ui-btn__spinner"></span>
}
@if (text) { <!-- โ Signal not called -->
<span class="ui-btn__label">{{ text }}</span> <!-- โ Signal not called -->
}
</button>
After (Fixed):
<button
[attr.type]="type()" <!-- โ
Signal called -->
[disabled]="disabled() || loading()" <!-- โ
Signals called -->
>
@if (loading()) { <!-- โ
Signal called -->
<span class="ui-btn__spinner"></span>
}
@if (text()) { <!-- โ
Signal called -->
<span class="ui-btn__label">{{ text() }}</span> <!-- โ
Signal called -->
}
</button>
