Can't figure out what these symbols are

In the menus for Logic Pro, if you go to Navigate -> Go to -> Selection Start (and End) there are these two weird arrows pointing up and down at a little line. I have searched everywhere, but nowhere can I find this symbol on the internet. Please see the screenie. It looks exactly like the Tab symbol but vertical. Does anyone know what this means, or what key it is referring to?


Thanks,

The ^ represents the Ctrl modifier key.

The ⤒ and ⤓ are Page Up and Page Down. May also be shown as ⇞ and ⇟ on your (extended) keyboard.

Small keyboards may feature a Fn key to help in selecting omitted keys: Fn ↑ for Page Up.

Wow thanks very much for the info. I suspected it might be page up/down and tried that, but all I get is a "screen flash" like I snapped a screenie. Also in the list of commands from the Apple knowledge base those exact symbols are not there ... page up/down is shown with 2 lines crossing the center, not one at the top.


But finally in my own playing around, I discovered what they were. Apparently they are Home (up) and End (down.) Right next to Page up/down so kind of "related" and they seem to work great just as if I clicked the menu item. I'm surprised I didn't catch it before.


Thanks very much for your help.
