Do I have to do each on in a different ini file? Only the first on works and the rest all go to the first one when clicked on.

Your Y= and H= settings are causing meters to "overlap" each other, so there is a conflict on which meter is receiving the mouse click.

[shredder81]

is there a easy way to define them or is it all mostly guess work

For the most part, unless you are using StringAlign=RIGHT or CENTER you don't need W and H on a string meter. (even then you don't absolutely need them) X and Y should be enough in almost all cases. The exception is when you are using ClipString=1 and want text to "wrap". Then H and W arer really required to get that working correctly. On a string meter, H can "sorta" be figured out as there is a formula (I think it is 1 font "point" = 1.75 pixels, but don't hold me to that, it varies a bit depending on the DPI of the device) but W is going to be based more on esthetics, how you want your skin to look, than on any formula.
