The latest version allows you to customise the stock/index names AND adjust the size of the first column. Download it from
https://www.deviantart.com/mordasius/art/Market-Prices-755702746
Right-click on the skin -> Edit Stock Symbols -> enter cutomised labels and reduce the width of the first column if you need to -> save the file and refresh the skin. Wait at least one minute between refreshes to avoid getting your IP blocked.
This is awesome!
One small note: when you reduce the first column it also reduces the title of the skin. I get
Financi... now instead of the full name. I reedcuded to 80. I'm not bothered by this but thought I should let you know.
Thanks for adding this feature!

Good catch - hadn't noticed that. I've updated the version on Deviant Art but rather than downloading the .rmSkin again I suggest you open MarketPrices.ini with you text editor and goto line 102 in the [TitlePanel] section and enter a new line with
W=128.
Code: Select all
[TitlePanel]
Meter=STRING
MeterStyle=sTextLeft
FontSize=#FontHeight#
FontColor=66ccff
SolidColor=00000001
X=36
Y=#HeaderLine#
W=128
LeftMouseUpAction=http://www.CNBC.com
ToolTipText="Markets @CNBC"
Text=#TableTitle#
UpdateDivider=-1
Group=1

I can't get the third label to show. The first 2 works flawlessly

It looks like CNBC may have changed their schema yet again.
None of the parsing appears to be working as expected. I'll grab the latest version of the skin, but I'm not holding out hope that it will fix the issue.

UPDATE: I stand corrected: apparently, I was running a significantly older version - balance in the universe has be restored!

On my windows 7 (64 -bit) machine this skin doesn't work.
I changed UserAgent but I have this (Fetch error)... (ErrorCode=12029) (MarketPrices\MarketPrices.ini - [InfoIndex1]).
Last version of skin and last version of Chrome.

Working for me using Win 10... ErrorCode=12029 means something is blocking the webparser from connecting to the internet.
I would check your IExplorer settings, clear the cache, restore default settings, ...

Checked my computer and no malware or anything.
Other skins with webparser work fine, only this skin doesn't work.

Not sure what else to try since the default skin settings work fine; shows Dow Jones Index and FTSE.

In fact, I don't understand why the skin doesn't work.
