How to align text in boolean pushbutton

Okay, this is about as simple a question as one can post on here and MAN do I feel stupid asking this...but, here goes!  I have a boolean pushbutton and I want to move the button text towards the left.  My problem is I'm having a heck of a time grabbing and moving just the text.  99% of the time my cursor grabs and moves the whole button, but all I want to do is move the text around.  I've done it successfully a couple of times, but most of the time I can't select just the text.  What's the secret??

Use the Control Editor, no muss no fuss.  Right-Click->Advanced->Customize

Thanks!  I haven't messed with Labview in over 5 years and I'm rusty as can be.  Every time I moved the cursor inside the pushbutton it would change to the little hand, and I was going nuts trying to remember how to select and move just the text.  I have a lot of cobwebs to clean out!

Try shift and right click. It will allow you to choose between the hand and arrow symbol. Then you can click and move your text.

 

I hope this helps
