Please add a btn-dark button option

[SharpNoiZy]

Hi,

I think there is no real issue for that.
There were comments in some other issues that wish also back the dark button but no seperate issue/feature request for that.
So I would love to have the dark button back from RC1, not as default, because the effect would be to heavy on other devs, but as additional option btn-dark, would be great.

Kind regards

.btn-dark is not a semantic class name because it describes how it looks rather than what it does. See http://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/goodclassnames. Your best bet is to customize the default button colors or create your own class called something like .btn-default-alt which contains the darker style.

It's something you can add yourself to your own stylesheet ie custom.css

.btn-secondary          { color: #ffffff; background-color: #777; border-color: #555; }
.btn-secondary:hover, .btn-secondary:focus, .btn-secondary:active, .btn-secondary.active, .open .dropdown-toggle.btn-secondary
                        { color: #ffffff; background-color: #888; border-color: #444; }

Or better yet, calling button-variant https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/master/less/mixins.less#L428

Closing as dupe of oh so many, e.g. #9878.

If its a "dupe of oh so many", perhaps we should stop closing and discuss further.

Most solutions say to create your own variant with the .button-variant mixin, however if I want a black button then the mixing hover does not work because it uses background-color: darken(@background, 10%);

Perhaps semantics is getting in the way of common sense.

@gamelodge Feel free to open a new issue, since this one is 1.5 years old and closed, with your specific darken-related rationale. Although I wouldn't get your hopes up.
