   // Creates a pushbutton with an icon, tooltip and label
   pushbutton([5,25], "@01\\QHELLO@Pushbutton attributes",{"process":printbutton});
   

    
   
    
3. Add a printbutton function to retrieve and display attributes of the created push button on the console window.
    

   // Function to retrieve the push button attributes using getfieldattribute
   function printbutton(buttonName)
    {
    getfieldattribute("P[Pushbutton attributes]", {"name.icon":"fbuttonicon","name.tip":"fbuttontip", "name.label":"fbuttontext"});
    println("\t fbuttonicon = " + fbuttonicon);
