Cangjie auxiliary radicals

First of all greetings everyone! This is my first time here.

I am trying to write a tutorial about the Cangjie input method when ran into a problem.

I can't seem to find the Cangjie auxiliary radicals, there are only pictures of it. Eg. http://www.hkpe.net/cj/cjtable.htm

But I need to actually type it. I tried to recreate most of it by searching it in the Kangxi radicals, CJK radicals supplement, gb18030-UNICODE file.

For example, the auxiliary radicals for 中 = ⼁⼃肀衤

But I can't find it for 木 (D). And same with Q. I need the 夫 but without the ㇏ stroke or the 丰 but without the 一 stroke. (See picture)

Can someone here point me where to look, I can't believe that the radical doesn't exist!

Thanks in advance,

HaamSapTjai

well perhaps you can use the Cangjie input method to input these? :mrgreen:

I don't know whether cangjie is similar to wubizixing in this, but some wubi shapes are not actual Chinese radicals, they're just graphical shapes that are part of enough characters that the creators of wubi assigned those shapes to a key.

that's some outside the box thinking you got there. But sadly no, except for one or two radicals. I already tried that.

It's true the missing shapes aren't standalone shapes there not necessary to be typed standalone. But I would think the creator/programmer mapped it to (for me unknown) unicode or something. Argh.....

Maybe I should emotionally prepare myself for the possibility that it doesn't exist....
