Hi
By vertical alignment, I meant th alignment of text inside the label,
instead of alignment of the label within its parent.
As attched in this (label_buttons.jpg), I have 4 labels, which I use as
buttons as SWT button foreground and background cannot be customised. The
problem is that the text in one 1 of the 4 labels wraps. Due tp the layout
the height of all 4 lbels also double. But the text in the labels with
non-wrapping text does not align centrally vertically.
Thanks in advance

You will need to provide code.
