Rightwards Harpoon With Barb Up Above Long Dash Symbol Meaning
⥬ (U+296C) is named “RIGHTWARDS HARPOON WITH BARB UP ABOVE LONG DASH.” Visually, it combines a rightward harpoon tip with a barb pointing upward, placed above a long dash. This makes it distinct from simple right arrows and can help signal actions like pointing right, indicating a connection/attachment, or highlighting movement to the right in technical diagrams and UI mockups. Because it’s a less common arrow, it’s also handy for design systems or documents that need precise, consistent iconography without importing image assets. It’s primarily used as a directional/connector symbol rather than a standalone icon with a widely standardized everyday meaning.
Common uses
- •Indicating motion or flow to the right in diagrams and infographics
- •Marking a “connection” or “attach” step in process charts
- •Labeling directional cues in UI wireframes and prototypes
- •Enhancing technical documents where arrows need consistent Unicode glyphs
- •Styling callouts or annotations in presentations and slide decks
