I think you want to use something like this:
tlb = widget_base(/row)
base1 = widget_base(tlb,/column) ;first column
base2 = widget_base(tlb,/column) ;second column
base3 = widget_base(tlb,/column) ;third column
Now add buttons, etc. to base1, base2, or base3 to put them into the columns
you want.
The top level base is a row of columns.

Put three column=1 bases in your top-level base.
Then, add your button to the second of the column bases. :-)
