Buttons

UI Text

When naming buttons, name the action that the button will trigger, especially if it is potentially destructive. For example, in a warning message dialog box, Delete All and Cancel buttons are clearer than OK and Cancel buttons.
Use title-style capitalization for button names, such as Clone or Run Report. Don’t use ending punctuation in button labels.
Don’t use any special formatting when referring to buttons.

Documentation

Use bold text when referring to buttons: Click Save.
Use the name of the button exactly as it appears on screen.
Don’t list the following UI element types unless needed for clarity or navigation: button, checkbox, drop-down button, field, icon, menu, link, radio button, or window. For example, write Click Save, not Click the Save button.
