A button carries a label, an optional value written on press, an optional event name, and an ordered list of actions. Pressing it runs all of them.

- Bind actions from the Binding section: unit commands, animations, or both.
- The event name defaults to the target path with dots replaced by underscores.
- Buttons work on a control panel in Use mode, and on a graphic scene in the editor — but a button on an on-air scene is still a graphic, so hide it before you take it.
