Use Cases

The Right Triple Dash Arrow (⤏) is commonly used in:

🚀 Directional Indicators

Show triple-dash rightward movement in navigation guides and wayfinding UI.

🔗 Navigation

Use in menus, breadcrumbs, and flows that need dashed arrow emphasis.

📊 Flowcharts

📄 Technical Diagrams

Include in architecture diagrams with dashed triple-arrow links.

🛠 Process Flows

Document step-by-step guides with dashed arrow transitions.

🎨 Graphic Design

💡 Best Practices

Do

  • Use &rBarr; for readable source markup
  • Add aria-label or surrounding text for accessibility
  • Distinguish ⤏ (triple dash) from ⇛ (solid triple) and → (single)
  • Verify your font supports Supplemental Arrows-B (U+290F)
  • Keep one entity style per project for consistency

Don’t

  • Confuse ⤏ with ⇛ (solid triple arrow) or → (simple arrow)
  • Confuse &rBarr; with &rAarr; (different symbols)
  • Use CSS \290F inside HTML text nodes
  • Rely on the arrow alone without context for screen readers
  • Mix entity styles randomly in one file
  • Assume all fonts render supplemental arrow glyphs identically
