2.^ Grey areas indicate non-assigned code points

The Egyptian Hieroglyph Format Controls block has four variation sequences defined for standardized variants.[3]

Variation selector-1 (VS1) (U+FE00) can be used to expand "lost" sign shading to achieve 'continuous shading' for the following characters:[4][5]

  • U+13443 𓑃 <reserved-13443>
  • U+13444 𓑄 <reserved-13444>
  • U+13445 𓑅 <reserved-13445>
  • U+13446 𓑆 <reserved-13446>
