U+2B6D

Downwards Triangle-headed Dashed Arrow Symbol Meaning
⭭ is the Unicode “DOWNWARDS TRIANGLE-HEADED DASHED ARROW” (U+2B6D). The downwards triangle head clearly signals direction downward, while the dashed shaft often implies a partial, indirect, or non-solid path—such as an alternate route, a transition, or a “guide/indicator” step rather than a fully continuous connection. You’ll typically see this symbol in diagrams, UI mockups, instructional text, and typography where a dashed arrow style helps differentiate states, actions, or flows.
Common uses
- •Indicating a downward step or stage in instructions (e.g., “follow the dashed path”).
- •Marking workflow transitions in diagrams and process charts.
- •Designing UI/UX diagrams to show non-solid movement or an indirect path.
- •Creating diagram labels in presentations where arrows need to look dashed.
- •Adding directional emphasis in technical writing and documentation.
