U+E01C5 "󠇅" Variation Selector-214 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
󠇅
U+E01C5 "󠇅" Variation Selector-214 is a special invisible formatting code used in the Unicode standard to indicate a specific visual variation for a preceding character, particularly within the framework of standardized variation sequences. It falls within the range of variation selectors that modify the glyph of a base character without changing its underlying meaning, and it is designated for use with standard ideographic characters to select a preferred rendering when multiple forms are defined. This specific selector, part of a supplementary set, helps ensure precise text display across different fonts and systems, though it generally has no visible appearance on its own and functions solely as a control character.
