:Eww. See [[User:BabelStone/sandbox#Musical Symbols]] for an attempt to replicate that (without any <code><nowiki><br />&nbsp;</nowiki></code> crap, which is great!). Note that 1D173–1D17A are identified as "format" characters in [[Module:Unicode data|this file]], but "NULL NOTE HEAD" is not. Hence the difference in css/color. The pink can of course be changed later. ―[[special:contributions/cobaltcigs|cobaltcigs]] 20:45, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
::Wow, I've never realised that U+1D159 is not a format character. Are there any other characters displayed as a dashed box around text that are not format or control characters? <s>I don't think so</s> (variation selectors are gc=Mn). The worrying thing is there seems to be no way of extracting the information from the UCD, so it relies on visually checking the Unicode code charts, but what if it changes suddenly to a graphic character in a new version of Unicode? My gut feeling is that gc=So is wrong if the character has no visible glyph and is not whitespace. [[User:BabelStone|BabelStone]] ([[User talk:BabelStone|talk]]) 22:52, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
:::I couldn't immediately work out where you are specifying a smaller font size for "NULL NOTE HEAD" compared with "Begin Beam" etc. I think that all the dashed boxes need a smaller font size because (on my system at least) the dashed letters are much larger size than Basic Latin letters, and make the cells overwide. Can we simply add "font-size:75%" for td.box in Unicode chart/styles.css, or is there more to it? [[User:BabelStone|BabelStone]] ([[User talk:BabelStone|talk]]) 23:30, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
