For a org.eclipse.swt.widgets.ToolItem there is the SWT.DROP_DOWN style to show a drop down button at the right side of a tool bar item.

Is there something similar for a normal push button (org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button)?

Hi,

You can make a Button with just a down-arrow by creating it with styles
SWT.ARROW | SWT.DOWN. However there isn't a way to add a
platform-provided down-arrow to the right of your Button's image/text.
If you want the ToolBar functionality within a page then you can create
a ToolBar with a single ToolItem and place it wherever you want.
