And another idea came right now, after a post of jsmorley, into another thread. You should try to use one single string meter to show the date and the month and set different options to them. This is possible now with the InlineSetting / InlinePattern options of the string meter. It could be simpler. So, replace the [MeterDate1] and [MeterDate2] meters with this:

Code: Select all

[MeterDate1]
Meter=String
MeasureName=MeasureDate1
MeasureName2=MeasureDate2
FontFace=AvantGarde BK BT
X=525
Y=-25
StringAlign=Right
AntiAlias=1
StringEffect=SHADOW
FontEffectColor=300,300,300,80
Text=%1 %2
InlineSetting=Size | 67
InlinePattern="(.*) "
InlineSetting2=Color | 9a223b
InlinePattern2="(.*) "
InlineSetting3=Size | 100
InlinePattern3=" (.*)"
InlineSetting4=Color | ffffff
InlinePattern4=" (.*)"
If you do so, you'll have the day and the month in the same string meter and you don't need to worry about their relative positioning. The only thing I think you won't be able to manage is the vertical position of the parts (it's true I'm not yet used with these options, so maybe there is a way to do that and in this case someone will come with a possibility and will clarify).
