Yes, you can do the Apple Logo with an iOS device but you have to set it up first in Settings. ? Copy the above Apple logo character. On iOS, open Settings>General>Keyboards>Text Replacement Press the + and create a new shortcut. Paste the Apple Log in the Phrase box. Make a Shortcut in the shortcut box. For example, something short, easy to remember, and it doesn't conflict with some other shortcut. apl perhaps. Then you can do ?Watch, ?Pay, etc. Denver Dan On Fri, 1 Nov 2019 18:42:14 -0400, Julian Thomas wrote: Is there a way in ipados/ios?[|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|][|] iSent from iDan's GyazMail on my MacPro |
Don't forget that you can see and use these "special" characters in Keyboard Viewer. This is in the "flag" menu in the top menu bar.? With the Keyboard Viewer window open, you can see the effect of the various combinations of modifier keys (Shift, Ctrl, Option).

Otto, the "Flag" menu has changed in more recent version of macOS X. It's called the Input menu and now has a Square icon withe 4 little hollow square in it. Keyboard Viewer, as Otto says, is very convenient and has been around in one form or another since 1984.

Dan, Its proper name has always been "Input Menu" but I call it "Flag" because?that is what I see in the?menu bar. So that's changed after all this time? Otto On Sat, 2 Nov 2019 at 11:24, Daniel Settles <denver1.dan1@...> wrote: Howdy. |
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýYes. A change. ?I tried to use Screeshot (Catalina) to capture the little menu but Screenshot is often buggy. It sort of froze in a kind of dark mode, menu brightly highlighted, and no screen cap file. I had to restart Mac.?I¡¯ll do a different cap and edit it had to gallop out the door for an early appointment.?

But less useful than it used to be, I think. I remember (correctly, I hope) a time when it linked to a Font menu, so that one could see the entire spectrum of glyphs a given font could produce by bringing up the keyboard map and selecting an individual typeface. Of course, it¡¯s possible that was provided by some 3rd party program I no longer use, but I think it was an Apple freebie. Jim Robertson |

You are thinking of the Input Menu (used to have a flag icon for your selected language) and the default items on it called: Show Emoji & Symbols And Show Keyboard Viewer The icon is a square box as attached below. The Input menu is turned on (added to Menu bar) in Catalina and some earlier versions of OS X by going to System Preferences>Keyboard panel then click the Input Sources tab and check on Show Input menu in menu bar box.

I remember the flag in the menubar. In the early days of the single-user Mac that flag saved me from a trip to the CooCoo¡¯s nest. My precocious son bedeviled me by installing various romance language keyboard maps; just enough so that my touch-typing produced many misspellings. What I¡¯m mourning is the loss of font-specific display of glyphs on the Keyboard Viewer. I don¡¯t remember when it disappeared, or why. Jim |

Otto, here's the tiny Input Menu current icon. The square. I don't recall when the icon changed. One can still open the Keyboard panel in Sys Prefs, click the Input Sources tab, click the + sign and add all kinds of different language keyboards. One can even add an Australian English keyboard but oddly it shows right side up.

Jim and everybody, Emoji & Symbols on the Input menu shows font variations and font names. But you will need to expand the window. Click the Input menu icon at top right inside the Emoji & Symbols window (to right of the Search box). In the column at far right you will see several sub boxes. The character name at top (with Add to Favorites), then the Related Characters box, below that (may have to scroll down) the Font Variation box. Folks should be aware of the Settings menu - the gear icon at top left. You can turn on a slew of additional characters with the Customize List command. Character sets like: Arrows ? ? ? ?? ? Box Drawing Braille Patterns Bullets/Stars ¡ñ ? ? ?? ? ?? Currency Symbols $ € ? ? ? Digits Dingbats Divination Symbols Duployan (whatever that is???) Emoji Enclosed Characters Geometrical Shapes Letterlike Symbols Math Symbols ¡Á - ¡Þ ¨R Musical Symbols ? ? ? Technical Symbols ? ?? ?? ? And many more. The Latin set is very useful because it includes descriptor of all of those symbols like ? (Latin Capital Letter A with Acute).

PopChar is a great little utility but now costs money. Emoji & Symbols also does the same things but is included.

Sound like different versions are being spoken about, but I can see different icons, depending upon the settings in Sys Prefs. The first is with Show Keyboard & Character Viewers in menu bar is not selected. The second is with it selected, and both viewers displayed. Dan, is this the icon of four boxes you described? If not please post an image. The icon to the left of the charged battery.
