Is it possible to embed a Tracker widget into another widget (e.g. HUD Message) to freely position it on screen?

Hi dear experts,
I’m currently designing a custom UI for my map and I’m trying to display the player’s Gold in a specific position on the screen (right side).

At the moment, Gold is tracked using a Tracker device, but the Tracker HUD seems limited to the left side of the screen and offers very little positioning control.

From what I understand, devices like Stat Creator and HUD Message allow much more freedom in positioning UI elements anywhere on the screen — however, they don’t natively support continuously changing values like a live Gold amount.

So my question is:
Is there a way to embed or reuse the Tracker HUD widget inside another widget/device (such as HUD Message), so I can display the Gold value with full positioning freedom?
Or alternatively, is there a recommended approach to display a dynamic value like Gold in a fully custom UI layout?

Any guidance would be appreciated :folded_hands:

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unfortunately you are right. It is not possible to change the position of the tracker Widget.

You’re better of using a different method, I personally would recommend using Verse since it’s pretty modular and recently Verse released Verse Fields which makes using WidgetBlueprints more easily inside verse and supports easily changing the text inside the widgets.
If you need any help with converting it to verse let me know.

You are amazing .. and honestly yes, I don’t have that knowledge to convert that to Verse
