swift 3.0迁移 jasongregori给出的解

class ButtonIconRight: UIButton {
        override func imageRect(forContentRect contentRect: CGRect) -> CGRect {
            var imageFrame = super.imageRect(forContentRect: contentRect)
           imageFrame.origin.x = super.titleRect(forContentRect: contentRect).maxX - imageFrame.width
        return imageFrame
        }

        override func titleRect(forContentRect contentRect: CGRect) -> CGRect {
            var titleFrame = super.titleRect(forContentRect: contentRect)
            if (self.currentImage != nil) {
                titleFrame.origin.x = super.imageRect(forContentRect: contentRect).minX
            }
            return titleFrame
        }

从2016年1月开始，所有这些答案都是不必要的。在接口构建器中，将视图语义设置为强制从右向左，或者如果你更喜欢编程的方式，semanticContentAttribute = . forcerighttolefleft这将导致图像出现在文本的右侧。

把@Piotr的答案变成了一个Swift扩展。请确保在调用此函数之前设置好图像和标题，以便按钮大小适当。

 extension UIButton {
    
    /// Makes the ``imageView`` appear just to the right of the ``titleLabel``.
    func alignImageRight() {
        if let titleLabel = self.titleLabel, imageView = self.imageView {
            // Force the label and image to resize.
            titleLabel.sizeToFit()
            imageView.sizeToFit()
            imageView.contentMode = .ScaleAspectFit
            
            // Set the insets so that the title appears to the left and the image appears to the right. 
            // Make the image appear slightly off the top/bottom edges of the button.
            self.titleEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: -1 * imageView.frame.size.width,
                bottom: 0, right: imageView.frame.size.width)
            self.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 4, left: titleLabel.frame.size.width,
                bottom: 4, right: -1 * titleLabel.frame.size.width)
          }
        }
     }

子类化UIButton是完全没有必要的。相反，你可以简单地为图像设置一个高的左插入值，为标题设置一个小的右插入值。就像这样:

button.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0., button.frame.size.width - (image.size.width + 15.), 0., 0.);
button.titleEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0., 0., 0., image.size.width);

一个快速的选项，做什么你想要不玩任何插图:

class RightImageButton: UIButton {

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()

        if let  textSize = titleLabel?.intrinsicContentSize(),
                imageSize = imageView?.intrinsicContentSize() {
            let wholeWidth = textSize.width + K.textImageGap + imageSize.width
            titleLabel?.frame = CGRect(
                x: round(bounds.width/2 - wholeWidth/2),
                y: 0,
                width: ceil(textSize.width),
                height: bounds.height)
            imageView?.frame = CGRect(
                x: round(bounds.width/2 + wholeWidth/2 - imageSize.width),
                y: RoundRetina(bounds.height/2 - imageSize.height/2),
                width: imageSize.width,
                height: imageSize.height)
        }
    }

    struct K {
        static let textImageGap: CGFloat = 5
    }

}

Swift 4 & 5

改变UIButton图像的方向(RTL和LTR)

extension UIButton {
    func changeDirection(){
       isArabic ? (self.contentHorizontalAlignment = .right) : (self.contentHorizontalAlignment = .left)
        // left-right margin 
        self.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 5, bottom: 0, right: 5)
        self.titleEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 5, bottom: 0, right: 5)
    }
}
