History & usage: SOUTH EAST TRIANGLE-HEADED ARROW TO BAR is a symbol in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block. Its code point is U+2B78.

This use makes it clear what action to take next, where to go, or how items are related. The symbol is simple and quick to recognize, so it works in small icons and toolbars. Users may see it on menus, forms, or diagrams where steps move forward or toward a target. Designers choose this kind of arrow to minimize clutter while keeping meaning clear. While it is part of a broad family of arrows, this one stands out because of the bar at the end, which can imply a stop or a transition. In history, such arrows helped readers scan information quickly. Today, they remain useful for guiding attention in digital and print layouts.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
