Workaround for inserting symbols

[phil nwoha]

Do you guys have some sort of workaround for inserting a symbol.  I don't mind if I have to manually add the symbols I want but being able to insert said symbol into the current position of the cursor (preserving font style and size) would be fantastic.

For now, please use the below workaround solution for inserting symbol characters based on special font.

     

Document editor provides API to insert text.

With the help of this insert text API of editor module, you can insert symbol text like “ξ, ≤”.

For your reference, we have prepared the below stack blitz sample.
