How to Add Text and Image Both in a SWT LABEL - eclipse-plugin

Question

Is there any way to add Text and Image in SWT label in a single line.
Once I add image, text goes off.

Answer 1

No you can't have an image and text simultaneously in a Label (unless you custom draw it). Else use org.eclipse.swt.custom.CLabel:
Code:
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.custom.CLabel;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Image;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
public class LabelTest {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
final Display display = new Display();
final Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
Image image = new Image(display, "next.png");
CLabel label = new CLabel(shell, SWT.BORDER);
label.setImage(image);
label.setText("This is a CLabel !!");
shell.pack();
shell.open();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch())
display.sleep();
}
if(image != null)
{
image.dispose();
image = null;
}
display.dispose();
}
}
Output:

Button click to open FileDialog Box and selected any image to display with text on specific label.
import org.eclipse.swt.custom.CLabel
A Label which supports aligned text and/or an image and different border styles.

Yes, using an intermediary composite with the right layout
Composite composite = new Composite(parent, SWT.NONE);
composite.setLayout(new RowLayout(SWT.HORIZONTAL));
Label imageLabel = new Label(composite, SWT.NONE);
mageLabel.setImage(...);
Label textLabel = new Label(composite, SWT.NONE);
textLabel.setText(...)
