Label widget problem [message #454626]

Hi All,

I am unable to assign both text and image to a Label. Only of them happens
depending upon what was set last. If I do a "setImage" after a "setText",
then only image shows and for vice versa, only text shows. Is this expected?
Can't a Label display an image succeeded by some text?

Thanks and Regards,
Neha.

There is an example of how to build that kind of custom widget here:

Label currently shows only an image or text. I looked for a feature request
to show both but could not find one (there is a request for Button - see Bug
33967 - but not for Label). You should enter one.

The custom widget org.eclipse.swt.custom.CLabel will show both an Image and
Text. Unfortunately, it does not support wrapping.

Alternatively, you could have two Labels and place them side by side.
