Hi,

you can use Rich Text variable and add button to it

1) File added to catalog item

2) Create Rich Text label variable and add source code below

HTML Source Code

<style>
a:link, a:visited {
  background-color: #f44336;
  color: white;
  padding: 14px 25px;
  text-align: center;
  text-decoration: none;
  display: inline-block;
}

a:hover, a:active {
  background-color: red;
}
</style>
<p>Please download the file here:&nbsp;<a title="Link" href="/sys_attachment.do?sys_id=29c39e75073f64102011ff208c1ed04f" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Link</a></p>

Output:

Native

Hi Ankur,

I don't know if this is introduced with releases since you wrote this but i am getting multiple points on the page highlighted from the source code not just the link button. See below:

Any ideas?
