Is it possible to add a side button to a text field? just like the actions on the pickers?

I need it to open a Screen and on close the string will return a string.
Currently I’m adding a button on a form and its taking a column and pushing everything around.
Thank you

Isn’t that what you need?

<hbox>
    <textField width="50px"/>
    <button caption="button"/>
</hbox>

You can remove unnecessary rounding of the corners of elements by editing styles.

Thank you for your reply
Adding a button beside it is what I have, but I’m wondering if it can be a nice button like a custom action from the screenshot above to open my screen.

Create a click handler for the button and open the desired screen.
Opening Screens :: Jmix Documentation

Or you can create your own action for this button.
Declarative Actions :: Jmix Documentation

Declare new action in descriptor:

<actions>
       ...
        <action id="action_1" caption="MyAction" icon="UNLOCK_ACTION"/>
    </actions>

And create subscription in controller for screen opening.

@Subscribe("action_1")
    public void onAction_1(Action.ActionPerformedEvent event) {
        screenBuilders.screen(this)
                .withScreenClass(OtherScreen.class)
                .withAfterCloseListener(e -> {
                    //Process result
                })
                .build()
                .show();
    }
