MCPE-32488Buttons block flowing water
Buttons act as slabs and although they can be placed in a water source block they block flowing water which shouldn't be how they work since levers, repeaters, and comparators all allow water to follow over them and buttons should work the same way. It will also be much more useful for redstone.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Place a water source block and let it flow
- Place a button in the flowing water
Observed Results:
The button blocks the flowing water.
Expected Results:
The water flows through the button.

Duplicate of MCPE-32488, it looks copy of pictures
It appears that you copied an existing open report (MCPE-32488).
Please do not create duplicate reports.
Buttons blocking water is tracked at MCPE-32488.
Do any of the other blocks you mention allow flowing water to pass through in Java Edition, or can you cite a Mojang representative's statement that they should allow flowing water to pass through? If not then this is a feature request that should be directed to feedback.minecraft.net.
To fix your world, you can create a new flat world and copy the file level.dat into your world that is not working properly (you might have to change the name of the world and the settings)
It's not a problem with the world, I've tested it in multiple brand new worlds.
Do not want this changed. I have used it extensively.
You could always use something like a sign but still, I guess I understand buttons, but water flowing over pressure plates would be useful
Thank you for your report!

The behavior described here has been in Bedrock Edition for so long that it many, many builds already use it. To change this behavior now would be terrible for the player community. It would cause massive flooding and destruction all over players' worlds.
+1. Please not fixing.
