U+0336 "̶" Combining Long Stroke Overlay Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

̶

U+0336 "̶" Combining Long Stroke Overlay is a combining diacritical mark that, when placed after a base character, renders a horizontal line striking through that character from left to right, effectively creating a strikethrough effect in digital text where plain formatting cannot be used. This character belongs to the Combining Diacritical Marks block and is designed to overlay seamlessly onto the preceding glyph, making it useful for indicating deletions, corrections, or negations in plain text environments such as code comments, chat messages, or markup-free documents. It does not have a standalone visual form and must be attached to a letter or symbol, as its visual impact depends entirely on the font and rendering engine that positions the stroke across the base character.
