Re: [Bug 1766976] Re: Please consider installing fonts-noto-color-emoji by default
Thanks. I hope it gets acted on! Its not a problem for me anymore, but it did cost me a lot of time (trying to figure out why my Qt based app wouldn't display the cheese whereas Geany would!). Whilst the problem persists, there is a danger that other people will lose a similar amount of time. Cheers. On 03/06/2021 11:21, Sean Davis wrote: > @nickstone8-v Thanks for following up.

QT apps still don't support color emoji, so I'm going to go ahead and close this issue out.

[Bug 1766976] Re: Please consider installing fonts-noto-color-emoji by default
Just an addendum to my comment above. I would describe this as a serious problem with a default install of XUbuntu. I spent two days trying to work out why my Qt based app was not displaying certain unicode characters (eg cheese wedge). It was just showing the white rectangle. Other apps, eg Geany, gnome-console, were showing the cheese just fine; so I thought I had a bug. I didn't know that Qt apps could not display colour emojis. If they cannot display colour unicode characters, then they should display the grey equivalent instead of just displaying a white rectangle. As I say, I spent two days trying to understand why my app was not displaying certain characters when I knew that the font it was using did support that character. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1766976 Title: Please consider installing fonts-noto-color-emoji by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-meta/+bug/1766976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1766976] Re: Please consider installing fonts-noto-color-emoji by default
In a default fresh install of XUbuntu 20.04, Qt based applications, eg Featherpad and Qt-Creator, will not display certain unicode characers, eg, U+1F9C0 CHEESE WEDGE 燎 (a white rectangle is shown instead). Non Qt apps, eg geany or gnome-terminal, show the cheese successfully. If Noto fonts are manually uninstalled, then the problem is fixed; Featherpad does display the cheese correctly. Conjecture: the Noto fonts were providing a colour version of the cheese wedge; the Qt apps could not display that but can display grey versions -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1766976 Title: Please consider installing fonts-noto-color-emoji by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-meta/+bug/1766976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I don't think Qt has full support for color emoji yet.
