Can I create this type of effect in Thunkable?

Can I create this type of effect in Thunkable - with the text in the border of text input or label?

Certainly saves space on a screen.

This looks like a fieldset element. Unfortunately, not something that could be done with any of our native UI components.

It’s certainly possible to manually create a group with components and an image of the open border and then duplicate that group as needed:

And here’s a Layout that uses a button with a background image and text (km):

I had to set the top margin of the button to -6 pixels (negative six) to achieve the overlap title effect. The advantage of a layout is that you can also create a custom Data Viewer List layout from it.

Modified image file (I made the area behind the gap in the border transparent instead of white):
