Special chars ?

Hi

I'm writing an app to dispay temperature from a TEMPE sensor (to replace the Temperature widget that is not really usable with this sensor). My question is simple : how can I display the '°' (degree) in MonkeyC. I tried to type this character but it's displayed as a ? on the watch)

More generally how can one display special characters ?

Thanks

var degree="°"; //utf-8, b0 hex, 176 dec

It's UFT-8 and you see the values.

Even with that, you want to check that the font you're using has that character (not all of them do). That info is in Appendex B of the UX guide in the SDK.

To display it, you simply display it like any other string
