How to add 2 images to the left and right of button?

Question

I want to create a button that has 2 (or more) images inside (left and right of button). I researched but have not idea. Can you help me?

You could always create a transparent image then draw one icon to the right, one to the left, and the button 'text' as a string in between. But really, what is the point of this non-standard (and therefore not 'path of least surprise') GUI component for the end user? — Andrew Thompson, Jun 09 '15 at 04:43
direct way is to add two JLabels with Icons to JButton, by using BoderLayout to add one to EAST, 2nd to WEST area, then you must little bit to play with visibility of the JButtons text — mKorbel, Jun 09 '15 at 05:17

use this code for every button

JButton left_btn = new JButton(new ImageIcon("image_address"));
JButton right_btn = new JButton(new ImageIcon("image_address"));

You can use the Compound Icon. It is a custom Icon that allows you to combine two icons into one. So you can combine two ImageIcons into one. Then you add the CompoundIcon to the button.
