我决定不使用标准的按钮图像视图，因为所提出的移动它的解决方案感觉很俗气。这让我获得了想要的美感，并且通过改变约束来重新定位按钮是很直观的:

extension UIButton {
    func addRightIcon(image: UIImage) {
        let imageView = UIImageView(image: image)
        imageView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false

        addSubview(imageView)

        let length = CGFloat(15)
        titleEdgeInsets.right += length

        NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
            imageView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.titleLabel!.trailingAnchor, constant: 10),
            imageView.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.titleLabel!.centerYAnchor, constant: 0),
            imageView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: length),
            imageView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: length)
        ])
    }
}

更新:Swift 3

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
    }
}

Swift 2的原始答案:

一个解决方案，处理所有水平对齐，与一个Swift实现示例。如果需要，只需翻译成Objective-C即可。

class ButtonIconRight: UIButton {
    override func imageRectForContentRect(contentRect:CGRect) -> CGRect {
        var imageFrame = super.imageRectForContentRect(contentRect)
        imageFrame.origin.x = CGRectGetMaxX(super.titleRectForContentRect(contentRect)) - CGRectGetWidth(imageFrame)
        return imageFrame
    }

    override func titleRectForContentRect(contentRect:CGRect) -> CGRect {
        var titleFrame = super.titleRectForContentRect(contentRect)
        if (self.currentImage != nil) {
            titleFrame.origin.x = CGRectGetMinX(super.imageRectForContentRect(contentRect))
        }
        return titleFrame
    }
}

同样值得注意的是，它处理相当好图像和标题插入。

灵感来自jasongregori的回答;)

这是我在swift 5.2上的工作

let sizeOfTitle: CGFloat = 80
let sizeOfImage: CGFloat = 20
yourButton.titleEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0.0, left: -sizeOfImage , bottom: 0.0, right: sizeOfImage)
yourButton.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0.0, left: sizeOfTitle, bottom: 0.0, right: -sizeOfTitle)

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);

Xcode 11.4 Swift 5.2

对于任何试图镜像后退按钮样式的人，像这样的雪佛龙:

import UIKit

class NextBarButton: UIBarButtonItem {

    convenience init(target: Any, selector: Selector) {

        // Create UIButton
        let button = UIButton(frame: .zero)

        // Set Title
        button.setTitle("Next", for: .normal)
        button.setTitleColor(.systemBlue, for: .normal)
        button.titleLabel?.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 17)

        // Configure Symbol
        let config = UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(pointSize: 19.0, weight: .semibold, scale: .large)
        let image = UIImage(systemName: "chevron.right", withConfiguration: config)
        button.setImage(image, for: .normal)

        // Add Target
        button.addTarget(target, action: selector, for: .touchUpInside)

        // Put the Image on the right hand side of the button
        // Credit to liau-jian-jie for this part
        button.transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: -1.0, y: 1.0)
        button.titleLabel?.transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: -1.0, y: 1.0)
        button.imageView?.transform = CGAffineTransform(scaleX: -1.0, y: 1.0)

        // Customise spacing to match system Back button
        button.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0.0, left: -18.0, bottom: 0.0, right: 0.0)
        button.titleEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0.0, left: -12.0, bottom: 0.0, right: 0.0)

        self.init(customView: button)
    }
}

实现:

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    let nextButton = NextBarButton(target: self, selector: #selector(nextTapped))
    navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = nextButton
}

@objc func nextTapped() {
    // your code
}

这里提到的解决方案停止工作，一旦我启用自动布局。我不得不提出我自己的想法:

子类UIButton和覆盖layoutSubviews方法:

//
//  MIThemeButtonImageAtRight.m
//  Created by Lukasz Margielewski on 7/9/13.
//

#import "MIThemeButtonImageAtRight.h"

static CGRect CGRectByApplyingUIEdgeInsets(CGRect frame, UIEdgeInsets insets);

@implementation MIThemeButtonImageAtRight

- (void)layoutSubviews
{
    [super layoutSubviews];

    CGRect contentFrame = CGRectByApplyingUIEdgeInsets(self.bounds, self.contentEdgeInsets);

    CGRect frameIcon = self.imageView.frame;
    CGRect frameText = self.titleLabel.frame;

    frameText.origin.x = CGRectGetMinX(contentFrame) + self.titleEdgeInsets.left;
    frameIcon.origin.x = CGRectGetMaxX(contentFrame) - CGRectGetWidth(frameIcon);

    self.imageView.frame = frameIcon;
    self.titleLabel.frame = frameText;
}

@end

static CGRect CGRectByApplyingUIEdgeInsets(CGRect frame, UIEdgeInsets insets){

    CGRect f = frame;

    f.origin.x += insets.left;
    f.size.width -= (insets.left + insets.right);
    f.origin.y += (insets.top);
    f.size.height -= (insets.top + insets.bottom);

    return f;

}

结果:
