I want to create a tree 3 levels deep with the nodes at the first 2 levels
using no icons (so that the label text is as close as possible to the tree
expand icon) and the nodes at level 3 using icons. Does anyone know if this
is possible? Thanks.

Hi,

You can do this using custom drawing. You can draw the image and the text for the TreeItems at level 3 in the PaintItem Listener (instead of setting the image to the TreeItem). And use EraseItem Listener to prevent the default text drawing.

Please see the example snippets on how to use the PaintItem and EraseItem Listener --
