Yes that is correct, specific glyphs follow assignment of the text span (by Paragraph Style) they fall in. The Unicode are locale/language neutral and mostly fall in the Unicode "Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs" (1F300-1F5FF), "Emoticons" (1F600-1F65F), and "Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs" (1F910-1F9FF) all from the Unicode Supplemental Multilingual Plane SMP, with a few common glyphs taken from "Miscellaneous Symbols" (2600-26FF) and "Dingbats" (2700-27BF) from the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane BMP (In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #1) And, thinking a bit on it, some measure of control by locale could be achieved by adding common fonts with Emoji coverage to the font substitution lists in VCL.xcu. But, we'd still need to extend ODF and now specify font assignment for LATIN_EMOJI, CJK_EMOJI, CTL_EMOJI in the config and then handle it internally in VCL. But which font(s) and would it really matter. Ultimately fallback selection is dependent on user's installed font collection, or their os/DE support by locale. LO would lack any granular control. In fact we stopped delivering font to support Emoji and dropped our own Emoji picker as os/DE support had improved. Just not seeing much of a requirement to try to localize font use for Emoji. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
