Feature request: Symbols

Open nightgolfer opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

SYMBOLS: I find it extremely convenient to have quick access to both emoji and special symbols via the same helper app; both are "characters" that don't have dedicated keyboard buttons, both live in text areas/boxes/documents. In combination with Favorites, Symbols give quick access to symbols that I use often, and I don't need to search for them. A few examples of Symbols added to Favorites on my Mac: ° ™ © ←→.

There are a lot of Unicode characters. An idea could be to add a Symbols category button at the end of the emoji categories list, and populate it with a small subset of Unicode characters. In Settings, there could be an option for "Manage Unicode Sets", which opens a modal with a checkbox for each Unicode set/group. Adding a new set adds those characters to the Symbols category.
