I'm fairly new to Arduino, and JUST got around to hooking up my i2C Backpack to a 16x2 LCD display. I'm testing with a simple thermometer sketch, and found that I am not able to use createChar to create the degree symbol.
I'm running the lastest IDE, and installed the Adafruit LiquidCrystal library to handle the backpack.
Is createChar part of the Adafruit library, or is there a new way to create custom characters that I don't know about?
Thanks!
