This is a thread to collect methods to produce symbols signifying higher cells, especially with current nLab software.

Another arrow-related thread is this, though not for higher cells.

It would be nice if we could do 3-cells in the same matter

• $\to$ - 1-cells
• $\Rightarrow$ - 2-cells
• $⇛$ - 3 cells

but to get the triple arrow you have to ask for it as unicode - it doesn’t have an iTeX name and only comes in left/right orientations ($⇛$, $⇚$) while the lesser arrows have vertical and diagonal shapes - $⇑$, $⇓$, $⇖$, $⇗$, $⇘$, $⇙$.

arrows block

I’ve seen people use triple arrows for 3-cells sometimes in diagrams in papers; probably you can make it with tikz. I’ve also seen people write a “3” on top of the arrow.
