Please ignore my large widgets; I didn't see your best practice article until I'd done all that.

Ah, but that is actually your issue! The SubWidget to be used as a template is full-theme sized (1920x1080). So the ticker creates 5 copies of it, but only the first one fits on the screen, the rest is flying off somewhere on the right of your screen.

Your template subwidget must be sized correctly, and each copy of the template will position itself next to the previous item.

The size of the main ticker Widget itself is less important, but it decides where the ticker items will go (they always start in a corner, which corner depends on the directional settings) and how many of them will be visible (by default items beyond the boundaries of the ticker widget will be clipped so they are not visible).
