Is it posible to add extra properties to the StringGadget with:
Alignment, Borderstyle, FontSize, Maxlength or TabStop?

- Max. length:

SetGadgetAttribute(#StringGadget, #PB_String_MaximumLength, LENGTH)

- Font size:

SetGadgetFont(#StringGadget, FontID(LoadFont(#PB_Any, "", SIZE)))

The other properties can probably be set with some OS-specific code. Try searching the Tips and Tricks section.

Don't forget the StringGadget ISN'T meant to be an editor.
There's an EditorGadget that can do all you want, and more.
