Description
Hello All,
Just an FYI - to circle back to [this: ](https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-mbed/issues/16)
The PR for the MRK-RGB Shield is [here:](https://github.com/arduino-libraries/Arduino_MKRRGB/pull/6)
And - in the meantime - you can clone [this:](https://github.com/jwestmoreland/Arduino_MKRRGB) and run your MKR-RGB shield on the H7. Just one jumper required and just uncomment:
#define USING_PORTENTA_H7
in MKRRGBMatrix.h
I've only currently tested using the 5x7 font thus far.
If anyone's curious I made use of the shiftOut() function to make this work.
Best Regards,
John W.

Research direction
Start with MKRRGBMatrix.h and the linked Arduino_MKRRGB pull request, then review the referenced ArduinoCore-mbed issue. Verify the reported Portenta H7 setup and jumper requirement; done would be a clear, maintained compatibility note rather than an untracked FYI.
