Description

a pilcrow with left arrow underneath it. Creating the sibling to this icon went smoothly https://github.com/lucide-icons/lucide/pull/1667 but with the pilcrow-right there's an awkward closeness between the two shapes (see image below) And it's happening because I didn't want to move the pilcrow icon to the left so that it remains centered (based on my judgment).

Icon use case

To switch the direction to LTR Mostly used in rich-text editors but can also be used to switch the viewing experience of a website to LTR

Alternative icon designs

This is an alternative to the pilcrow-left icon https://github.com/lucide-icons/lucide/pull/1667

])

The awkwardness of the spacing between the pilcrow and the arrow is actually 1px

Which does not meet the Lucide design principles so I move the pilcrow 1px to the left to make the spacing between the elements into 2px as per the design principles. ✅ Now the spacing between the elements is 2px all around

The visual center is to the right of the geometric center so moving it is okay IMO

[zaaakher]

@jguddas let me know if there's anything needed from my side.

Not a super big fan of the small pilcrow we already have, I think it looks pretty disproportionate, how about some alternate designs for this use case, such as:

1. Adding chevrons next to the full size pilcrow indicating direction as opposed to arrows:

2. Using another generic letter instead of a pilcrow:

For the use case of text direction, it has to be based on pilcrow to make sense.

use case of text direction

Whaaaaaaaat. There text and there's direction:

What else is missing? 🤪😆

It's just that A can mean any form of text element and pillcrow means a paragraph. That's also why it's so commonly used in WYSIWYG editors, most notably Microsoft Word.

@karsa-mistmere @jguddas We should keep the pillcrow. It should be an abstract symbol. Looking at the usecase described in #1667:

To switch the direction to RTL Mostly used in rich-text editors but can also be used to switch the viewing experience of a website to RTL (similar to how mantine does in their website header.

Most Common RTL Languages: (Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Kashmiri, Pashto, Uighur, Hebrew, Sorani Kurdish, and Sindhi)

Those languages don't use alphabetical characters. Also for RTL, this design is mostly used according to a quick search on Google.

How about increase the size of the arrow, to match move-richt icon. Yess it not perfectly vertically centered, but the it's not visually centered in both versions.
