Hi all,

been playing with widget design and thought I'd try and get some feedback (tried uploading some to the new files area but seems to take an age to get them on here).

here's a basic FTSE 100 stock values widget that pulls the FTSE level every ten mins or when you press the red button.

fell free to pretty it up (i tend just to keep to the basic buttons etc) and let me know if anyone has any sucess using it with other stocks etc.

ps it wont work on the emulator I've found only on a S70

Very nice! I just played with it right now and it worked right away.

I made a few very minor tweaks to it that I thought might be nice. The biggest being that I added a Progress/Slider Block to your programming so that you could put a "gauge" on the market. The only problem is that I didn't realize that when you filter the number, you put it in a format like this: x,xxx.xx. The coma is the thing that kills it for going into the Progress/Slider (since that's not a real integer). If you used another filter to get that coma out of there, I believe you could make use of this. I'm not sure how Nevo Widgets handles the "." in a number, but I think it takes it out of there automatically.

Anyhow, it's nothing major and I just thought I'd tinker with your cool creation. If you'd like me to email you what I did, just private message me and I'll email it to you.

Good stuff.
