Which passwordchar shows a black dot (•) in a winforms textbox?

I was also wondering how to store it cleanly in a variable. As using

char c = '•';

is not very good practice (I guess). I found out the following way of storing it in a variable

char c = (char)0x2022;// or 0x25cf depending on the one you choose

or even cleaner

char c = '\u2022';// or "\u25cf"

same for strings

string s = "\u2022";

Use the Unicode Character 'BLACK CIRCLE' (U+25CF) http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/25CF/index.htm

To copy and paste: ●


One more solution to use this Unicode black circle >>

Then select Arial font and choose the Black circle copy it and paste it into PasswordChar property of the textbox.

That's it....


You can use this one:

You can type it by holding Alt and typing 25CF.


Alternately, you may use this smaller one:

You can type it by holding Alt and typing 2022.
