Emoji support in Webviewer?

1

Hello all!

So I got started with Anthias the other day, and so far all is well. Only thing I’d like to address is the lack of emoji support in the component that actually renders HTML to the screen (Webviewer, as far as I’m aware). I think I might just need to install an emoji font, like Noto Color Emoji, and have that added to Webviewer somehow, but I’m not sure how to proceed. I was looking into the instructions for how to build Webviewer, but again, I’m not sure if this is the right approach.

Anybody have any ideas for how to make this happen? I’ll appreciate any info you can share. Thanks!

I appreciate you creating this discussion. I just created a GitHub issue for this matter: [FEATURE] Emoji support in WebView · Issue #2272 · Screenly/Anthias · GitHub. Should you have the interest to provide open-source contributions, feel free to create a pull request, I’ll be happy to review it.

The WebView source code uses Qt (100% C++ code, no QML files).

I’ll take a look at this one as well.

Thanks Nico! I would like to take a crack at it, so I’ll create a pull request and see what I can do. :slight_smile:
