Adding ⌘-symbol in my text on my Mac Studio with macOS Sonoma

I just did and it works fine.

Go to this webpage:

Mac keyboard shortcuts - Apple Support

See the section "Using Keyboard Shortcuts"

Copy the Command symbol ⌘

Then go to System Settings > Keyboard > Text Replacements

I created "Replace" = mycmd

"With" = ⌘

Click Done.

The Text replacement didn't seem to work here in this community but it appears to work everywhere else that accepts text.

I've searched for a keyboard shortcut to create it, but was unable to find it.

However, I was able to get it to work here by using the app called Typinator to replace mycmd with ⌘

I was able to create a text replacement named "cmd" to get ⌘ (macOS Sonoma 14.4.) Maybe try another name.

Otherwise, use the Character Viewer (control + command + space) and search for "place of interest". It will return ⌘. Using it often enough will place the character in the Frequently Used list so you won't have to search for it.

Text replacement is working for me, when I use (cmd) as the string in text replacement, not cmd without parentheses. As soon as I close the the parentheses, the character replacement will occur.

Not since 2000, as far as I know. You have always had to use copy/paste or character viewer or text replacement. But you can customize the keyboard if you want to add any character to a key with

How did the User manage to create requested ⌘ previously ?

With due respect and the hanging question remains unanswered

Perhaps if one reflects upon how the " standard colour tab shift-⌘-C. " was created - that may shed some light on this issue
