A '''stone button''' is a variant of the [[Minecraft:button]], a non-solid block that produces a temporary [[Minecraft:redstone]] signal when pressed by a player or when hit by a [[Minecraft:Wind Charge|wind charge]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
A stone button is most easily broken with a [[Minecraft:pickaxe]]. It drops itself as an item when broken using any [[Minecraft:tool]].
{{breaking row

A button is removed and drops as an item if:
* its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed.
* [[Minecraft:water]] or [[Minecraft:lava]] flows into its space.{{only|java}}
* a [[Minecraft:piston]] tries to push it or moves a block into its space.

=== Natural generation ===
Stone buttons are naturally generated in strongholds, next to iron doors.{{only|java|short=yes}}

Stone buttons also generate in desert villages, in armorer houses attached to granite, as well as in trial chambers.

== Usage ==
{{see also|Redstone circuit}}

=== Placement ===
Buttons can be placed by {{control|using}} it on a surface.

They can be attached to the side, bottom and top of any full opaque block.

If placed on the top or bottom of a block, the button can face any direction.{{only|java}}

It can also be attached to the top of a fence {{in|be}}.

More information about placement on transparent blocks can be found at Opacity/Placement.

=== Redstone power ===
A button can be used as a monostable redstone [[Minecraft:Redstone components#Power components|power source]] (it automatically deactivates shortly after being activated).

Buttons are usually in an inactive state, but can be temporarily activated by players. A stone button is activated by a player {{control|using}} it or when hit by a wind charge. [[Minecraft:Mob]]s cannot activate buttons directly.

When activated, a stone button remains active for {{convert|1|second|redstone tick|game tick}}.

While active, a button:
* powers any adjacent redstone dust to power level 15, including beneath the button
* powers any adjacent redstone comparators or redstone repeaters facing away from the button to power level 15
* strongly powers its attachment block to power level 15
* activates any adjacent [[Minecraft:Redstone components#Mechanism components|mechanism components]], including above or below, such as [[Minecraft:piston]]s, redstone lamps, etc.

When a button changes state it provides a redstone update to all redstone components adjacent to itself (including above and below), and to all redstone components adjacent to its attachment block.
