Optional parameters

Foreign-script fonts

Many Unicode blocks deal with foreign-language scripts, which look best with font support. The parameter |wrapper= can be used to designate another template to wrap each character cell of the table in, such as {{Script/Arabic}} or {{Bo-textonly}}

{{Unicode chart/sandbox
 |blockname = Ogham
 |wrapper = Script/Ogam
}}

If there's no template for the language in question, you can use |font=

{{Unicode chart/sandbox
 |blockname = Mayan Numerals
 |font = Noto Sans Mayan Numerals
}}

Links

To create links from Unicode characters to their Wikipedia pages, use |link=wiki

{{Unicode chart/sandbox
 |blockname = Latin Extended-C
 |link = wiki
}}

To link to Wiktionary pages, use |link=wikt

{{Unicode chart/sandbox
 |blockname = CJK Radicals Supplement
 |link = wikt
}}

You can use |link_sub= to:

• manually set links for only certain cells
• override the target of links if |link= is being used

{{Unicode chart/sandbox
 |blockname = Devanagari
 |link_sub = 0901:Chandrabindu; 0902:Anusvara; 0903:Visarga; 093D:Avagraha; 0950:Om; 0964:Danda; 0965:Danda; 0970:Laghava
}}

Abbreviations

By default, the following cells are abbreviated:

1. Anything that has an abbreviation listed at Module:Unicode data/aliases
2. If it's a "control" or "display" character, but it does not have an abbreviation listed, an abbreviation is created by taking the first letter of each word of the character's name.

You can manually set a cell as abbreviated with |abbr_sub=

{{Unicode chart/sandbox
 |blockname = Hangul Jamo
 |abbr_sub = 115F:HC<br>F; 1160:HJ<br>F
}}
