Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
To make a user customised shortcut you need to write exact menu text, but sometimes it is not easy:
"Safari ⎯ iOS 12.1.3 - iPhone"
Does anybody know what this "--" before the word iPhone name is?
(or what its character code?)
It is definetely too long for "minus" sign.
Hello CheGiwera,
Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. If I understand correctly, you have a question about a specific character you're seeing.
It looks like what you're referring to is an em dash, and you can use these on a Mac by holding Shift + Option and then pressing the - key on the top row of your keyboard.
I hope I've answered your question. Take care.
