In order to insert common HTML Tags, such as div, span, article, aside etc. you need to switch to DOM Tree panel as App Structure panel is used to display only components. We will show you how add a span inside a button, then add some text and assign a class to it.

In the DOM Tree click on the span tag and in the Properties Inspector, in the Text field enter the content you want to show inside it:
