Hi Sergey,

I found the following in an old forum post:
For example, you can type 1F43B, press Alt+X, and it will be converted to 🐻 (your browser may convert this character to emoji icon; TRichView does not do it)
Alt + X works fine, but a regular trichview shows a b/w character. Is there any way to do some delphi code to convert 1F43B into a color emoji icon? Just wondering about this and thought I'd ask. Both windows apps notepad and VS Code seem to do this on the fly.

Thanks

Stan

Text engines used by VCL version of TRichView do not support colored emoticons. FireMonkey version does.

Hello,

It looks like color emojis may actually be possible in VCL. Please check TMS VCL UI Pack for reference. Having color emojis inside TRichViewEdit would be absolutely awesome. Please consider it! 🙏

SynEdit can display colorful emojis too.
