In this activity's step 3 called "Get started", at the very bottom there is a section called "Add visual polish" in it we can read the following

" Give the BUTTON an accent color and slightly ROUNDED corners to let the users know that they can tap the image."

In what previous activity along the units and paths up to this point did you teach the reader how to ROUND corners of a button let alone how to add an image to a button?

To add image in the button, you just nest the Image compose inside the Button.

As for visual polish, these things are for you to explore and research about yourself. It is to promote self learning and creativity.

This is a free course you need not to sound rude in asking questions. Those features are for you to make some research and apply them yourself

Just because it is a free course it doesn't mean they have to be sloppy especially that we are talking about how they are teaching us how to build their own Android apps!

The activity I was referring to is part of pathway 2 of Unit 2, while the activity that teaches about rounding corners of buttons and applying colors is part of pathway 3 of Unit 3!

So that is taught later in the course! If I am to go do my own research as you suggest, completely ignoring the linearity of the course, - we learn this first, then the other things that depend on it, and so forth - why should they even bother with creating the course, that also tracks people's progress etc, if all they have to do is tell people to "go do your own research"? You make no sense!
