[Touch-packages] [Bug 1439222] Re: Implement emoji in Ubuntu

2018-12-15 Thread Jeremy Bicha
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS includes color emoji support (with Google's Noto Color
Emoji font). Most GTK apps are supported.

The GNOME Characters app allow you to browse emoji and is installed by
default.

You can right-click in many text areas and choose Insert Emoji to get an
embedded emoji browser when you want it.

Bug description:
  This bug is about implementing emoji display and insertion in Ubuntu,
  desktop and phone.

  I wrote a page about possible ways to implement emoji in Gnu/Linux systems:
  http://probablement.net/txt/emojilinux

  To sum it up:

  * The first thing to do is having the Symbola font (in ttf-ancient-
  fonts) as part of the default installation, so users can see
  monochrome emoji. If I understand, it’s what is being done in bug
  #1137630 (which is about not seeing emoji: Symbola certainly resolve
  it but isn’t a full implementation of emoji as we expect them).

  * The second thing is replacing Symbola with a proper colour emoji
  set, like Emoji One, Noto Color Emoji, or Twemoji. There’s different
  ways to implement this (layered colour font, SVG font, substitution
  with individual SVG files, …) but if I understand correctly comment #6
  in #1137630 FreeType is already compatible with colour fonts! (I will
  update my page)

  * An optional third step would be designing a custom Emoji set. That’s
  more or less bug #820034 even if I’m unsure about it being part of the
  Ubuntu Font Family, even if drawn in stylistically consistent way with
  it.

  * Lastly, we need a system wide UI to browse, pick and insert emoji. I
  added some existing examples on the page; basically, the choice is
  making it only for emoji or part of larger UI for inserting
  characters.

Looks like Qt has problems with colored emojis, check this bug[1], the
fix for that[2] was merged some days ago. I will compile qt, and check
if this fix the problem with "NotoColorEmoji.ttf" font.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1439222] Re: Implement emoji in Ubuntu

2016-01-31 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
This bug report lacks any steps to reproduce. So if you would like to
see Ubuntu catch up, and you are not a font engineer, one thing you can
do to help is to test and describe where the problems are, and ensure
there is exactly one bug report for each of them.

For example, what happens if you copy emojione-android.ttf or
NotoColorEmoji.ttf onto an Ubuntu phone, and then view a page that uses
emoji?  Are they rendered in color?

If so, do they also show up in color in other apps such as Dekko? If so,
can you type them on the Emoji keyboard? If you can, all that’s required
is packaging the font (ubuntu, tag=needs-packaging) and shipping it
(ubuntu-touch-meta). If you can view them but not type them, it’s a
matter of packaging, shipping, and also changing the keyboard (ubuntu-
keyboard).

If the emoji aren’t rendered in color at all, can you find *any* multi-
color font that works on Ubuntu, when used as a Web font for example? If
you can, it’s four problems: packaging, shipping, typing, and font
fallback (fontconfig).

If no multi-color font seems to work, then as Lalo suggested, the first
problem is deeper, probably in Freetype (freetype). Report it with a
simple test case. Once it’s fixed, re-test the other layers.

(The above is focused on the phone. For PC the problems are the same,
but as nicolas’s page says, with a character picker in place of the on-
screen keyboard. That too needs a bug report to itself; it can be
designed+implemented independently of all the other steps.)

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1439222] Re: Implement emoji in Ubuntu

2015-07-21 Thread Lalo Martins
Also I just spent about two hours testing whether colour fonts work on
ubuntu  seems they're not. Freetype might support them, but something
else (fontconfig? gtk+qt?) doesn't; they don't show up in font selectors
(e.g. in the Gimp), and opening one of those files in the font viewer
causes a buggy window. Interestingly, Nautilus does display a couple of
characters as a preview, although not in colour.

Should we make that a separate bug?

Title:
  Implement emoji in Ubuntu

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:

Status in ubuntu-touch-meta package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  This bug is about implementing emoji display and insertion in Ubuntu,
  desktop and phone.

  I wrote a page about possible ways to implement emoji in Gnu/Linux systems:
  http://probablement.net/txt/emojilinux

  To sum it up:

  * The first thing to do is having the Symbola font (in ttf-ancient-
  fonts) as part of the default installation, so users can see
  monochrome emoji. If I understand, it’s what is being done in bug
  #1137630 (which is about not seeing emoji: Symbola certainly resolve
  it but isn’t a full implementation of emoji as we expect them).

  * The second thing is replacing Symbola with a proper colour emoji
  set, like Emoji One, Noto Color Emoji, or Twemoji. There’s different
  ways to implement this (layered colour font, SVG font, substitution
  with individual SVG files, …) but if I understand correctly comment #6
  in #1137630 FreeType is already compatible with colour fonts! (I will
  update my page)

  * An optional third step would be designing a custom Emoji set. That’s
  more or less bug #820034 even if I’m unsure about it being part of the
  Ubuntu Font Family, even if drawn in stylistically consistent way with
  it.

  * Lastly, we need a system wide UI to browse, pick and insert emoji. I
  added some existing examples on the page; basically, the choice is
  making it only for emoji or part of larger UI for inserting
  characters.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1439222] Re: Implement emoji in Ubuntu

2015-04-01 Thread nicolas
I found two more related bugs, both for Ubuntu Phone:
* #1269017 for both display and input, on mobile and not desktop, resolved with 
Symbola (like #1137630) and with #1340598.
* #1340598 which is for input, resolved by having a emoji keyboard on mobile! 
Great, it would be great to have something similar for desktop.

Recap of emoji-related bugs:
* #1439222 (desktop  phone) (display, input) (this one): full emoji 
experience: colour display, qualitative set, input UI. Unresolved.
* #1137630 (desktop  phone) (display): simple display of emoji. Resolved with 
Symbola.
* #1269017 (phone) (display, input): display and input for mobile. Resolved 
with Symbola and next bug.
* #1340598 (phone) (input): input for mobile. Resolved with an emoji keyboard.
* #820034: emoji set design for the Ubuntu Font Family. Unresolved.
