Thanks Troy,
I reproduced it with:
Classic Boolean => Labeled square Button
Then choose decoration from: Modern Decorations and choose Triangle and then copied to clipboard and then import from clipboard at the same size.
The triangle form is enough for me. I like this solution because its completely in labview.
alok.p already wrote that the problem is transformed to:
How do I make a new Decoration in labview.
I think it has to do with vector graphics otherwise it will not be scalable.
I leave this post open because maybe there will be more solutions to this problem.
I will NOT post an idea. So anyone who like to do please do so.
With Kind Regards,
Toine Roetman

I think it is already covered in the idea exchange by these ideas:
Improved decoration and control graphics
Support SVG as an image format

Has this problem been solved yet?
I DO know how to solve the problem, just want to know if there is a pure-G solution.
For a 4-state buttons, we can customize the XY Graph: Cursor Legend.
But for 6-state, or more ...

Triangles are pretty simple. Just customize a boolean by pasting triangle decorations into the picture items.

This one is cuh-razy. I pasted the pointer from a guage into the picture items of a boolean.

Actually, what OP asked for is a special case: non-rectangular buttons lined-up in a ring, not really triangle or free shape. It's easier to customize a cluster of buttons as a whole, rather than each individual button.

My implementation of Radial buttons presented at NI Week 2018:
Leveraging the Windows API to Extend LabVIEW GUI Capabilities
The advantage:
uses LabVIEW buttons, with build-in button features like show/hide, enable/disable, mechanical actions, and resizable.
