Re: help:what does the 'r' mean?
"r" (or "R") means "relative". What this does is set the X or Y position of a meter relative to the position of the meter just before it.
So if you have
[Meter1]
X=10
Y=10
[Meter2]
X=r
Y=10r
Then Meter2 will follow immediately to the right of the right hand side of Meter1, and 10 pixels below the bottom of Meter1. An "r" without any value just means the same as "0r".
In addition, you can use the capital "R" to mean relative to the beginning of the previous meter, instead of the end.
[Meter1]
X=10
Y=10
[Meter2]
X=30R
Y=10R
This means Meter2 will be positioned 30 pixels to the right of the left edge of Meter1, and 10 pixels from the top of Meter1.
Hope this helps.

Re: help:what does the 'r' mean?
It means "relative to the previous meter". With X=r, the meter will look at the X-position of the previous meter and use that as its X-position. With Y=15r, the meter will look at the Y-position of the previous meter and use that as its Y-position, then add 15 to it. So if you previous meter was at (30, 20) this meter will show up at (30, 35).
