[maemo-developers] Fremantle: HildonCheckButton with two labels

[From: Cornelius Hald]

Aniello, thanks for the input. I'll give it a try, but I like to use the
second label as description label, as it has a smaller font. Not sure
how it will look when I put that much text on a normal check button. But
I'll try :)
