Why does this work? ☞☞☞☞

I am trying to make a pointing finger the bullet point symbol.
When I put the bullet point into the document, it works just fine. But when defined as the pointer, it somehow isn't showing up.
What am I doing wrong?
You can separate the definition from the setup. Try \defineitemgroup[prompt] \setupitemgroup[symbol=bighand,style=italic] /Mikael
