Is this possible in SWT? I tried, but do not get what I expect:
Button button = new Button(parent, SWT.CHECK | SWT.LEFT);
The location of the text is the same if I try any of these:
Button button = new Button(parent, SWT.CHECK);
Button button = new Button(parent, SWT.CHECK | SWT.LEFT);
Button button = new Button(parent, SWT.CHECK | SWT.RIGHT);

Help!

You can't. The position of the text is part of the look and feel for a
check button (although some platforms let you change it).

Look also on BooleanFieldEditor, they create for your case Label and then
Button without text.
