U+21F0 "⇰" Rightwards White Arrow from Wall Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⇰
U+21F0 "⇰" Rightwards White Arrow from Wall is a specific arrow symbol found in the Arrows block of the Unicode standard, visually representing an open or hollow arrowhead that points to the right while appearing to originate from a vertical line or wall on its left side. This glyph is often used in technical contexts such as flowcharts, diagrams, or user interface design to indicate movement, output, or directionality starting from a barrier or base state. It should not be confused with other rightward arrows like the plain rightwards arrow (U+2192) or the white arrow from a wall variant, as its distinct design conveys a specific starting point or constraint.
