Thank you for your reply [Yincognito]. :rosegift: :great:


My problem is that the text in the URL is too long and I can't to lock in it. [The photo describes it best]. So my idea would have been to create a container [or 3] that contains just the label from the URL and limits the text. And approximately the size of the text field has

:???: I'm not interested in creating 3 individual shapes but rather three at once, as in the post mentioned above. :confused: :lol:
And then assign the corresponding shapes to the individual strings? Is that possible?

You don't need containers or shapes to limit the width of a String meter, just use its ClipString option:
https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/meters/string/#ClipString
Reading the relevant bits from the manual helps, use it. ;)

P.S. Another way to create more space for the actual value displayed there would be to get rid of the "URL Adress:" and similar parts. Maybe replace those with some little icons relevant to what those fields contain (like a link icon, etc). Or, using tooltips to display what is expected there and the full value on hover...
