Hello,

i experienced problems with text inside TPLRectangle.
1. random text was additionally written
Solution: initializing rs in procedure TrimLine
2. text was written over/beyond right border in TPLRectAngle
Solution:
procedure TrimLine was modfied
procedure TplRectangle.DrawStringsInRect was modified

Here are my changes, but be warned:
it works for me, but due to the lack of skills, id did no do any intensive testing (sideeffects etc.):

greetings

changed to:
begin

  rs:='';
  with aCanvas do
  begin
    lineHeight := TextHeight('Yy');
    pad := padding + pen.width+abs(ShadowSize); //(Pen.Width div 2);  changed because text was written right of the border
    if odd(Pen.Width) then
      Inc(pad);

    YPos := BtnPoints[0].Y + padding;

    CalcOnlyOrTextOut(True);
    i := BtnPoints[1].Y - pad - YPos;
