Blinking character on LCD (not Cursor!)

I need a blinking character (not a blinking cursor, the actual character on a Position should blink) in Setup Mode on a LCD display, have anyone an idea ?

No there isn't a specific mode to blink a character, but it can be done.

A simple routine to alternately write a space and the character to the same location is all that needs to be done.

Work on doing that and if you have problems re-post with questions and I'll try to help.

you can use "\b" if you are using the lcdc driver. It acts like a backspace so you dont have to set any addresses.
