Wherein,
Label − The text to be displayed by the button label
Stock − The stock id identifying the stock image and text to be used in the button. Default is None.
Underpne − If True, an underscore in the text indicates the next character should be underpned and used for the mnemonic accelerator.
Some of the predefined constants for stock parameter are −
STOCK_OK
STOCK_STOP
STOCK_YES
STOCK_NO
STOCK_QUIT

| 2 | get_label() This retrieves the text from the label of the button |
| 3 | set_focus_on_cpck() If True, the button grabs focus when cpcked with the mouse. |
