Using code point to render outlined icon instead of filled from Material Design Google Fonts

437 Views Asked by At

I have a Place icon from Material Icons Google Fonts that is rendered using a before pseudo-selector and the code point e55f.

The problem is that is being rendered the filled version:
Material Design location filled icon

Instead of the outlined version I want:
Material Design location outlined icon

Is there a way I can use the outlined version using code point?

Demo from Codepen here

<div class="place"></div>

<style>
  .place::before {
    content: "\e55f";
    font-family: 'Material Icons';
  }
</style>

Just change the font-family: 'Material Symbols Outlined'; :

.place::before {
  content: "\e55f";
  font-family: 'Material Symbols Outlined';
}
