About Greater-Than Above Rightwards Arrow

Greater-Than Above Rightwards Arrow is a specialized arrow variant from the Supplemental Arrows ranges, typically used in advanced mathematical notation, category theory, or detailed technical diagrams that need a more specific directional symbol than the basic arrow set provides.

Unicode block: Supplemental Arrows (U+2900–U+2BFF (A/B/C ranges)). As mathematics and diagramming needs grew beyond the original Arrows block, Unicode added several supplemental arrow ranges covering more specialized directional and relational notations.

At Unicode code point U+2978 (decimal 10616), Greater-Than Above Rightwards Arrow is the 121st of 128 characters cataloged in this category on How To Type Any Symbol. In terms of typing methods, like most characters outside the 0–255 legacy codepage range, it has no dedicated Alt-code or single-key shortcut on Windows or Mac, so copy-paste is the standard, universal method for typing it. Regardless of platform, clicking the copy button above places the exact character on your clipboard, ready to paste into any application that accepts Unicode text.

💡 Good to know: Font support for supplemental arrow ranges is less universal than the basic Arrows block — verify rendering in your target font before relying on it in published material.
