I’m trying to create a circular button using the following code(using phoenix + tailwind)
<button class="bg-violet-700 text-slate-50 rounded-full p-3">
<span class="hero-arrow-right w-4 h-4"></span>
</button>
but for some reason the button tries to apply line-height 24px and make button oval shape. I can add leading-4 to force the line height to 16px but I’d prefer to avoid that since this a component that I want to reuse for text and icons.
I tried to isolate the html/css in tailwind playground https://play.tailwindcss.com/VTdFLa0iVb
what other options beside setting line-height do I have?
Thanks!

Look at the rounded icon buttons here:

Thanks! it’s straight forward when element inside button is svg. But when it’s a
span(the way thaticonfunction in default core component is setup) it’s goes out of shapehttps://play.tailwindcss.com/5TEuNJR70k

You should say that the element is not allowed to change it’s size, for example with flex:
