Combination Usage
Button + Caption Most common action.
Button + Caption + Icon Adds a easy recognisable visual representation for the action along with the label. This type of icon can be displayed vertically, getting the icon a most prominent place
Button + Icon Only a visual representation of the action is displayed. Use with care since there is no textual information and users may not recognise the icon right away.
