Change design and add text to Run / Load button on dashboards

When you open a Looker dashboard for first time and start selecting some filters to update the dashboard with, the run button in the top right of the dashboard is a blue circle with a circular arrow in it. Is it possible to change the behavior of this button to say text like "run" or "create report" or anything at all besides just a circular button that looks like a refresh button? 

We are running into issues where users don't intuitively know this is the "run" button after they choose their filter options and then want the report to load initial data in an embedded dashboard in our product.

This is what it looks like when Dashboard loads for the first timeprabhakaran_mai_0-1689120041807.png

Above is the Out of box behavior, How are you accessing Looker, Directly or through Embedded Application? If it is through an Embedded application, your application team has designed it that way.

Thank you for your input, Prabha. 

This is what ours looks like in our embedded experience both when you load the initial page and haven't selected any filters yet and after you've selected one or more filters and are ready to update the report to show the data.

I will connect with our engineering team who embedded these reports to see if it is possible on their end to make edits to the run / update button.
