Formula examples
anti-diagonal ⋰How to type Up Right Diagonal Ellipsis
- Windows
- Use Character Map or enter U+22F0 in a Unicode-aware application.
- macOS
- Open Character Viewer with Control–Command–Space and search by the symbol name.
- Microsoft Word
- In an equation, type \iddots and press Space when Word supports the command.
- iPhone and iPad
- Copy and paste ⋰, or use a math/LaTeX app. The standard iOS keyboard may not expose every mathematical symbol.
- Android
- Copy and paste ⋰, or use a math keyboard or LaTeX editor. Keyboard layouts vary by device and app.
- Google Docs
- For plain text, paste ⋰ or use Insert → Special characters. For structured math, use the equation editor and verify \iddots.
- Excel
- Paste ⋰ into a cell or use Insert → Symbol when available. Ordinary cells preserve the character but do not interpret LaTeX commands.
Common mistakes
- Preserve grouping, operator order, and spacing around ⋰; Use it for anti-diagonal patterns and confirm package support for the LaTeX command.
- For plain text, copy ⋰ as U+22F0; for structured equations, use \iddots in math mode. A look-alike glyph or image can break search, accessibility, or parsing when the intended character is Up Right Diagonal Ellipsis.
When to use ⋰
