Arrow Button with Text [message #442635]

Hi there,
I'm new to SWT. I am trying to create an arrow button that also
contains text. I've tried creating a custom widget and it either creates
2 buttons next to each other, a button and a label or a button and text.
This is probably an easy thing to do, but I'm new to this and am having
trouble.

Thanks,
Robin

SWT does not support both text and arrow.
Check out the code of setText() on Button
public void setText (String string) {
checkWidget ();
if (string == null) error (SWT.ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT);
if ((style & SWT.ARROW) != 0) return;
int newBits = OS.GetWindowLong (handle, OS.GWL_STYLE);
int oldBits = newBits;
newBits &= ~(OS.BS_BITMAP | OS.BS_ICON);
if (newBits != oldBits) {
OS.SetWindowLong (handle, OS.GWL_STYLE, newBits);
}
TCHAR buffer = new TCHAR (getCodePage (), string, true);
OS.SetWindowText (handle, buffer);
}
