Basics...
You have to add StringAlign=Right to your meter style section or to each meter if you don't using meter styles
Read more about string meter on docs page

Remember to chnge X position of each meter since strings will be placed from right.

Example:

Code: Select all

[StyleLinks]
FontFace=Arial
FontSize=12
FontColor=255,255,255,175
StringAlign=Right
Antialias=1

[Link1]
Meter=String
MeterStyle=StyleLinks
Text=Rainmeter site
LeftMouseUpAction=["http://rainmeter.net"]
X=200

[Link2]
Meter=String
MeterStyle=StyleLinks
Text=Rainmeter forum
LeftMouseUpAction=["http://rainmeter.net/forum"]
X=200

[Link2]
Meter=String
MeterStyle=StyleLinks
Text=Rainmeter docs
LeftMouseUpAction=["http://docs.rainmeter.net"]
X=200

You probably just have to add StringAlign=Right and change the X= values in the meters displaying the text but it would help if you could post a link to the skin you are talking about.

This skin is really badly made.. there is no such thing as FontColor2 and FontColorGradient. Also some parts of meters are unnecessary..
You can also drop usage of !execute, it's no longer necessary. Also I'd recommend use LeftMouseUpAction instead of LeftMouseDownAction, becouse the second one prevents skin dragging.

Here you go, example skin section in git-log style (red - removed code, green - added code).

[MeterText]
Meter=STRING
X=5
X=100
Y=2
FontColor=255, 255, 255, 180
FontColor2=255, 0, 0, 180
FontColorGradient=50%

StringStyle=NORMAL
FontSize=12
StringAlign=left
StringAlign=Right
FontFace=Base 02
AntiAlias=1
Hidden=0
Prefix="Rosetta Stone"
Text=Rosetta Stone
LeftMouseDownAction= !execute ["C:\Program Files (x86)\Rosetta Stone\Rosetta Stone Version 3\RosettaStoneVersion3.exe"]
LeftMouseUpAction=["C:\Program Files (x86)\Rosetta Stone\Rosetta Stone Version 3\RosettaStoneVersion3.exe"]

Again, I recommend you to take a look at docs page to learn how it works.. Feel free also to ask here, our community can be really helpfull :)
