<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

    #point::after {

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Named: &cularrp; is the clearest HTML form for U+293D.

2. Hex: U+293D → &#x293D; in HTML. Same glyph as the named entity.

3. Decimal: same code point as 10557 → &#10557;. Same glyph as hex and named.

4. CSS: use \293D in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ⤽ after the paragraph text.

5. Typed / label: paste ⤽ in UTF-8, or write Reset &cularrp; for a short UI label.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with U+293D.

vs ⤺

Not the plain top-arc arrow

⤺ (U+293A) has no plus. Use &cularrp; only when the plus is part of the symbol you need.

vs ⤼

Not the clockwise minus form

⤼ (&curarrm;) is clockwise with a minus. Direction and sign both differ from ⤽.

Name

Remember &cularrp;

The name hints at curved left arrow with plus. Do not invent names like &toparcplus;.

Fonts

Needs Supplemental Arrows-B coverage

Some UI fonts omit rarer arrows. Prefer a stack that includes a symbols font if the glyph must always show.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\293D belongs in CSS strings. &cularrp; / &#x293D; / &#10557; belong in HTML.

A11y

Name the action in context

Screen readers may announce this unevenly. Prefer nearby plain-language text such as “reset” or “undo plus” when the arrow carries meaning.
