<![CDATA[Special characters like german umlaut äöü]]>How do i print these characters to LCD? I own the M5stack Grey.
With other Arduino LCD's i did "\xEF" to print 'ö'. But with M5 LCD it did not work.
Is there a document showing wich characters are supported in the LCD font?

It is working in M5Tab5 as well

ä char(132)
ü char(129)
ö char(148)

Ä char(142)
Ü char(154)
Ö char(153)

Example for German: Überschuss
M5.Lcd.drawString(String(char(154)) + "berschuss" , 0, 0);

It's actually significantly simpler to type an e after the umlauted letters, and utilize a twofold s (ss) for ß. That is how Germans treat they need to.
