I have a 2×2 button grid. Now I’d like to shrink the buttons to
200×200, place each in a container as a space place holder, then center
each button in its respective container.

shrunk the two top buttons so you can see the spacing on the page.
How can I go from the first image to the second image, which was
Photoshop’ed?

    Simply add centered:true to the configuration of all your buttons.

    Good luck.

    P/S: that config actually set your component to the center (horizontally & vertically) of its parent component.
