U+2537 "┷" Box Drawings Up Light and Horizontal Heavy Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
┷
U+2537 "┷" Box Drawings Up Light and Horizontal Heavy is a box drawing symbol that features a light vertical stroke extending upward from the center of a thick horizontal line. This character is part of the Unicode Box Drawing block and is used primarily in text based interfaces and terminal applications to create structured borders, grids, or tables where a junction requires a heavy top horizontal segment paired with a thin upper connector. Its design allows it to represent a three way intersection with a bold baseline and a delicate ascending line, contributing to the visual hierarchy and clarity of line art or diagrammatic text.
