Hey all, I'm using an RSS feed from my website as a Data Source for my ticker crawl.

I've got it to work but there are no spaces between the titles. So despite it being 10 different stories, it looks like one long field of text and doesn't make any sense.

I'd love to be able to add our company logo between the stories, but all my searching makes that look impossible.

Is there a way to add a small space between each title? The settings look quite limited but I'm sure I must be overlooking something.

Cheers.

In the format of the ticker data source connection add some spaces before or after the {0} . One can also add a special character like for example a diamond etc
It's right there in the helpfiles under "Mapping a Data Source to a Title"

For logos the ticker would have to be custom made but the text portion would be of fixed length ( not practical for RSS feed stories)
