Unicode Version 17.0
🭸
U+1FB78 "🭸" Horizontal One Eighth Block-4 is a specialized symbol within the Symbols for Legacy Computing block, representing a block shape that is one eighth of a full character cell in height, specifically occupying the fourth eighth of the vertical space. This character belongs to a set of partial block graphics originally used in early computer systems and terminal interfaces for creating visual layouts, text-based art, and progress indicators by stacking or aligning these fractional blocks. Its design allows for precise horizontal segmentation, enabling finer granularity in text mode displays where standard full blocks or half blocks were insufficient.
