block letters

[monochromicorn]

So, I've seen in a lot of macros, people have the block letter, HQ symbol, and a few other things, but despite asking people how to make those, I don't know how, as it seems block letters are a mystery to everyone.

if you're on PC, You can use the following:

this is called Square Enix Secret Code
Copy paste the below 4 rows of text between the stars in game's chat.

I Pasted them in a Macro slot to copy&paste whenever I need one.

I think you need someone to Type them for you and you can copy them from your chat box.

I'm not sure if you can copy & paste on PS4. If you can, I can create a character to send them for you (if world is not full & you're online).

You can hook up and mouse to the ps4 and copy and paste that way. That being said, yes, you do need to wait for someone else to type it. Then you can copy it and use it in a macro.

I created a tool for typing and copying block letters as well as other FFXIV secret code characters!

This would actually be a really useful macro maker if you added these:

┏━┳━┓
┃ ┃ ┃
┣━╋━┫
┃ ┃ ┃
┗━┻━┛

>> Console Player here too <<
Hold down L1 + R3 (right joystick). This turns on the mouse mode. One of the joysticks moves the cursor around (I think R3). Holding down (either L1 or L2, can't remember which) lets you highlight text, but only from the chat box.
Unfortunately, you can't highlight/copy text from other peoples search info or adventures plates.
(I could be mistaken about some of the buttons)
