Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Named: &RightUpTeeVector; is the HTML5 name for U+295C → ⥜ (case-sensitive).

2. Hex: &#x295C; inserts the same code point. Same visual as named.

3. Decimal: same code point as 10588 → &#10588;.

4. CSS: use \295C in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends ⥜.

5. Typed: paste ⥜ in a UTF-8 document, or write Vector &RightUpTeeVector; from bar.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Up Harpoon Barb Right From Bar.

Named

Prefer &RightUpTeeVector;

The name is case-sensitive. Write RightUpTeeVector exactly — or use &#x295C; if you prefer a short numeric form.

Look-alikes

⥜ ≠ ⥔ ≠ ↾

From-bar is &RightUpTeeVector;. To-bar is &RightUpVectorBar;. Simple right-barb harpoon is &uharr;. Check the bar geometry before you publish.

A11y

Add context

A lone ⥜ may be unclear. Pair it with wording such as “up harpoon from bar” or an accessible name for screen readers.

Fonts

Glyph coverage

Supplemental Arrows-B coverage varies. Prefer math-capable fonts and test on mobile.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\295C belongs in CSS. &RightUpTeeVector; / &#x295C; / &#10588; belong in HTML. Do not write \0295C.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish with ; — write &RightUpTeeVector;, not &RightUpTeeVector.
