A '''button''' is a [[Minecraft:non-solid block]] that produces a temporary [[Minecraft:redstone]] signal and powers its attached block when pressed by a [[Minecraft:player]] or a [[Minecraft:wind charge]]. The material a button is made of affects how long it remains pressed and whether it can be pressed by other means.<br />

=== Natural generation ===<br />
Oak buttons can generate inside [[Minecraft:trial chambers]] between [[Minecraft:dispensers]] with random surprises or loots. {{IN|JE}}, stone buttons can generate inside [[Minecraft:stronghold]]s next to [[Minecraft:iron door]]s. Jungle buttons generate naturally on house walls in [[Minecraft:desert]] [[Minecraft:villages]]. Stone buttons can also generate in [[Minecraft:desert]] [[Minecraft:villages]], in armorer houses attached to [[Minecraft:granite]].<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
{{hatnote|For more specific usage, see the individual button pages.}}<br />
<br />
=== Redstone power ===<br />
{{see also|Redstone circuit}}<br />
A button can be used as a [[Minecraft:monostable]] [[Minecraft:Redstone components#Power components|power source]] (it automatically deactivates shortly after being activated).<br />
<br />
A stone button stays on for 20 [[Minecraft:tick]]s (1 second), while a wooden button stays on for 30 ticks (1.5 seconds).<br />
<br />
==== Placement ====<br />
Buttons can be {{control|placed}} by {{control|using|use}} it on a surface.<br />
<br />
They can be attached to the side, bottom and top of any full opaque block.<br />
<br />
==== Behavior ====<br />
Buttons are usually in an inactive state, but can be temporarily activated by players. A button can be activated by {{control|using}} it.<br />
<br />
While active, a button:<br />
* powers any adjacent [[Minecraft:redstone dust]] to [[Minecraft:Redstone circuit#Power|power level]] 15, including beneath the button (if the button attaches to a vertical surface, or to the bottom of a block)<br />
* powers any adjacent [[Minecraft:redstone comparator]]s or [[Minecraft:redstone repeater]]s facing away from the button to power level 15.<br />
* strongly powers its attachment block to power level 15.<br />
* powers the block of air that it occupies, which in turn is able to power any adjacent redstone components, seemingly sending its power through the air.<br />
* activates any adjacent [[Minecraft:Redstone components#Mechanism components|mechanism components]], including above or below, such as [[Minecraft:piston]]s, [[Minecraft:redstone lamp]]s, etc.<br />
<br />
When a button changes state it provides a [[Minecraft:Redstone circuit#Redstone update|redstone update]] to all redstone components adjacent to itself (including above and below), and to all redstone components adjacent to its attachment block.<br />
<br />
=== Breaking ===<br />
A button is removed and drops as an item if:<br />
* its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed.<br />
* [[Minecraft:water]] or [[Minecraft:lava]] flows into its space.{{only|java}}<br />
* a [[Minecraft:piston]] tries to push it or moves a block into its space.<br />
