phil, my dear, I give up on the meters, grouping stops the individual meters working, and even if I don't group them, nobody but me can see it actually works.. could someone point me in the direction of a simple script, that will just show the Drive space, memory, and CPU in a TEXT STATE ONLY   thanks again phil, I know you got my widget working for you, but you and I were the only ones that could see it work

 

Edit.. You know the irony of graphical meters, the CPU meter shows me it's the meters that are eating my CPU

Nice touch phil

Don't forget to group objects, or parent/child relations.
