Can unicode characters be added to thumbnail text?

(1/2) > >>

For example, I would like to add a filled triangle symbol, Unicode F5B0, to my thumbnail text.
Is this possible?

Copy/Paste the text symbol from MS Word to Thumbnail text sometimes works, but does not work for this symbol.

Windows 11 Pro 64-bit

You can try the CHAR function. It supports unicode, but not hex numbers I believe.

Thanks.
Using a hex to decimal converter, I find F5B0 = 70 53 66 48.
Neither CHAR(70 53 66 48) nor CHAR(70536648) work as thumbnail text.

Simpler decimal numbers, like the wiki example CHAR(189) for the symbol 1/2 do work.

2/3/2024 Duh, misled by the web, I should have realized that's the wrong way to convert to dec base 10!  :-[

dtc:
F5B0 is 62896 in decimal. That prints a symbol that looks like a dot for me but it is too small to be sure what it is.  The problem may be CHAR or with the ability to print that unicode or with my understanding of unicode.
