On the roSpringboardScreen in movie mode categories are shown at the bottom. 2 categories max.
I have a 3rd category to display. I’d like to just add a string to the categories array as follows “CAT2 * CAT3” but I can’t figure out what char to use for * so it matches the generated one.
Give 0xB7 a try… Please share your result.

Thanks Kevin,
Not sure how to represent this as a string in BrightScript…
Forgive my ignorance…
Chr(183)
That looks like the correct character to me! I was actually needing to know the same thing, so thanks for asking the question, and thanks for answering, Kevin!
OK thanks
I tried this and it prints nothing to the screen
sep = " " + Chr(183) + " "
cat2 + sep + cat3
Hrmm… It works in paragraph text and on the roImageCanvas, but doesn’t seem to work in the metadata or breadcrumb…
utf8 is not officially supported. There are a few places where we have made the change, but most strings have not been converted at this point. Sorry that I can’t list which have changed and which haven’t… this is constantly evolving.
