William Overington Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 Upon investigation it appears to not be the case. The glyphs of the symbols are different from the design that I posted. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_symbol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_symbol#Standards https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_symbol#Unicode https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2300.pdf page 2 and page 7 William Until December 2022, using a Lenovo laptop running Windows 10 in England.

And yes, most have the switch line pointing up, but that is a minor detail that will confuse too many people, especially the dyslectics. Not that your “language” has anything to do with Affinity products. jmwellborn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the Share your work forum. The image was produced using Affinity Designer. I suppose that your comment is true as such, but as far as I am aware the topic of the content of items posted in the Share your work forum is not expected to be about Affinity products. My understanding is that the expectation is that the items have been produced using one or more Affinity products. William Until December 2022, using a Lenovo laptop running Windows 10 in England.

William Overington Posted March 22, 2022 Author Share Posted March 22, 2022 2 hours ago, Alfred said: It is spring: That would be It is a spring. Some years ago, machine translation to French produced C'est source. Which also is It is a spring. In that case, spring as in water from a hillside. The meaning of the glyph is definoed in the context of a season of the year, though I accept that I did not mention it here. I suppose that I implicitly thought that today being the first day of sprng that the context would be clear. William Until December 2022, using a Lenovo laptop running Windows 10 in England.

Edit: The first day of spring coincides with the spring equinox, which actually occurred two days ago (Sunday).

William I'm closing this thread as this forum is meant to contain work created within the Affinity applications and to gather feedback on the work. It is not intended as a catch-all location for off-topic conversations to take place. AdamStanislav, iuli, stokerg and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
