custom buttons

Why is it that if I use a transparent button with a
custom image, I can't get the button label to look
right?  If I enter a label such as "Exit" for my
button, and select the Show Name property, the label
displays below the custom graphic, not centered on it.
 I can adjust the margins so that the label seems to
be centered on the button, but it displays behind the
image, not on top of it.  Is there any way to make
this work.  Seems like strange behavior.

I need the use of custom buttons, but I'd like to be
able to have a built-in button label.  Otherwise, I
have to create tons of button images (at least three
states for each button) with the labels already on
them, and then import them into my stack.  Is there an
easier way to do it?

Thanks,

Chris Sheffield
