History & usage: The symbol depicted here is the CIRCLED CROSS POMMEE. It appears as a cross inside a circle. This meaning supports practical uses: in UI it often stands for close or delete actions, helping users remove items or dismiss dialogs. It also signals an incorrect state or error when the context permits, guiding users to fix input. In forms or dashboards, it can be used to cancel ongoing tasks or reset choices without ambiguity. Cross-platform rendering may vary by font, so ensure consistent appearance. For accessibility, provide a text label or ARIA description so screen readers convey the action clearly on all platforms.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F540 in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
