P: Add a Glyphs panel

Why, still, is there no glyphs palette/panel/menu in Photoshop? It's pretty sad that I have to use Illustrator or CopyPasteCharacter.com to get the glyphs I need for my raster designs.

There are So MANY END USER comment's on this issue. No comments or status updates from the Adobe Team. As a user it looks like we are being ignored !

Adobe Team - Please post the RANK of this issue - What do you have as a priority above this?

This should be a JDI as Adobe already have the technology in Illustrator - Right?

It's not just my favourite feature, it's got 94 other backers as well.

Posting here and adding your vote helps inform product management about what is desired. But the type team has a lot of other issues and features on their plate that rank ahead of a glyphs panel.
Just because your favorite feature doesn't happen instantly doesn't mean that it isn't already in progress and might appear in a later version.

Guys and girls, this is not going to happen anytime soon. It hasn't been implemented after 3 years of requests, we're basically flogging a dead horse.

I've had to keep Illustrator open and bring in dingbats from that program using the Glyphs panel there. It's a major PITA and its seems silly to open up another program just to use that functionality, but what can you do about it? Posting here doesn't do jack apparently.

I strongly support this feature to be added.
As a Web/UX Designer, I always use icon fonts in my designs, so what I do right now is:

1. Go to Adobe Illustrator
2. Open the Glyphs Panel
3. Select the Type Tool
4. Copy my icon
5. Paste it in Photoshop

Why do I need to go through all this steps, when if we were to have that panel, all this would be happening with one click.

How hard it is to add a simple glyph panel to photoshop since you already have it as a feature on illustrator and inDesign?

This request has been made 3 years ago:

... and still it is under consideration?

this feature is essential, not the video editing feature.

Just having a way to access all the alternate glyphs. - no matter how basic - would be worlds better than what we have now. Ideally, one just like InDesign would be great - where highlighted glyphs in a text window bring alternates to the top.
