It’s most commonly used as a specialized directional marker in diagrams, flow-style illustrations, icon sets, and UI labeling where a straight arrow isn’t specific enough. Designers may also use it to add typographic emphasis in technical text, schematics, or document annotations that reference directions, transitions, or linked actions.
