Something like this in your custom column class :

class MyColumn extends Column
{
    protected bool $imageFirst = false;

    public function imageFirst(bool $value): self
    {
        $this->imageFirst = $value;

        return $this;
    }

    public function getImageFirst(): bool
    {
        return $this->imageFirst;
    }
    
    // ...

class MyColumn extends Column
{
    protected bool $imageFirst = false;

    public function imageFirst(bool $value): self
    {
        $this->imageFirst = $value;

        return $this;
    }

    public function getImageFirst(): bool
    {
        return $this->imageFirst;
    }
    
    // ...

Then you should be able to set the option from the resource or table config :

    MyCustomColumn::make('custom')->imageFirst(true)

    MyCustomColumn::make('custom')->imageFirst(true)

and get it in your Blade view :

@if ($getImageFirst()) 
  ... 
@endif

@if ($getImageFirst()) 
  ... 
@endif

I don't remember seeing this in the docs, I was just digging in the source code of the built-in columns to see how it works.
