Button: turn on the width setting by default in theme.json - #81196
Merged
Conversation
The Button block's width control is rendered by the shared dimensions panel, which only shows it when `settings.dimensions.width` is truthy. That setting is an `appearanceTools` opt-in and is not set anywhere in the bundled theme.json, so any theme that does not opt into appearance tools lost the control when the block moved from its own `width` attribute to the `dimensions.width` block support in #74242. Set `settings.blocks.core/button.dimensions.width` to true in the bundled theme.json, matching what core/icon already does.

What?
Turns on
settings.blocks.core/button.dimensions.widthin the bundledlib/theme.jsonso the Button block's Width control is available again in themes that don't opt into appearance tools.Fixes the regression reported in #74242 (comment).
Why?
Before #74242 the Button block rendered its own
WidthPanel, which was always visible. That PR replaced it with the shareddimensions.widthblock support, and the shared Dimensions panel only renders the control when the resolved theme.json setting is truthyHow?
One line in
lib/theme.json:"core/button": { "border": { "radius": true }, "dimensions": { + "width": true, "dimensionSizes": [ ... ] } }Themes can still turn it off with
settings.blocks."core/button".dimensions.width: false.Testing Instructions
Test HTML
add_theme_support( 'appearance-tools' )for example Twenty Twenty-One.appearanceTools: true(e.g. Twenty Twenty-Five) and confirm nothing changed there.
