On Ubuntu the checkboxes appear in the first column added to the table, so I just can set its text and change the order and get this result:

On Mac OS X, however, I see this:

(Ignore the different languages.)

1. Is it possible to set the title of the checkbox column on Mac?
2. Is it possible to change its position?

Hi,

2. On Mac, the Checkbox column is fixed to be the first column, so you cannot change its position.
1. On other platforms, the checkbox is attached to the first column of the table, so by setting the title to the first column you can set the title to the checkbox column. But, on Mac the checkbox is a separate column(internally) so you cannot set its title this way.
There is bug open regarding this - https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=303454
