Color emoji is POSSIBLE.. or is it (squinty eye emoji)...
Can this be accomplished below? I have all the .png and fonts, but not the regex know how etc... If i can get some help on starting a few lines, I will write the rest myself.
From my experience most emoticons (emoji) do not use a font, but are rather bitmap graphics (e.g. emoticons in the default Android text editor). There are several downsides to using a font:
•Suppose you made the characters a, b, c, d etc into emoticons - the user would then be unable to read/send messages with those characters in without them turning to emoticons.
•Fonts are generally quite large as they contain a lot of information for displaying the text at different sizes/styles
Using bitmap graphics will allow you to easily use the same emoticons across a wide range of devices, whilst using standard device fonts the text around the emoticons.
You will have to parse the string that you are displaying, find the emoticons, and replace them with images.
On Android for instance you would accomplish this with:
1.Search the string for all emoticon occurences (regex can do this easily enough)
2.Replace all emoticons with the string <img src="emoticon.png" /> (althugh change emoticon.png based on the type of emoticon)
3.Convert the String to HTML with String myHtmlString = Html.fromHtml(myEmoticonString, myImageGetter, null);
4.Display the string in a TextView myTextView.setText(myHtmlString)
In step 3 myImageGetter needs to be an instance of Html.ImageGetter which returns a graphic (drawable) based on the src attribute of the images in the string (ie it converts a string file name to an actual graphic)
The steps on other platforms would be different but you should be able to use the same basic method (parse string, replace emoticons with images).
Any help or direction would be appreciated, I would do what I can if I had direction.
Thanks in advance!
just asking
http://developer.oesf.biz/em/developer/reference/durian/android/emoji/EmojiFactory.html
http://gitorious.org/0xdroid/frameworks_opt_emoji/blobs/master/EmojiFactory.h
Just a bit of help.. I want to make emoji a part of the framework so all apps will see the emoji as a .png image instead of black n white.
Anyone?

Hi all. Can someone who uses Notepad++ explain why you use this program over Notepad? I ask because of course, I already have Notepad and Notepad++ does not appear to be readily available. Does it offer any advantage to editing .xmls or something else?
I think you actually mean Notepad++, and here's a quick summary of its features according to Wikipedia:
Features
Some of its general features include:
Tabbed document interface
Drag-and-drop
Multiple Clipboard (plugin required)
Split screen editing and synchronized scrolling
Spell checker (requires Aspell) (Spell checker does not distinguish between text and code)
Supports text encoding formats such as Unicode, for international writing systems
Find and replace over multiple documents
File comparison
Zooming
Programming languages
Running under Mac OS X using the Wine compatibility layer.
It also includes features for source code editing:
Auto-completion
Bookmarks
Syntax highlighting and syntax folding
Brace and indent highlighting
Regular expression find and replace
Speech synthesis
FTP Browser (plug-in included in standard installation)
Macro recording and execution.
Various tools such as line sorting, text encoding conversion, text folding
File status auto-detection
Plugins for multiline regular expression search and replace
Notepad++ supports syntax highlighting and syntax folding for 48 programming, scripting, and markup languages. It attempts to automatically detect the language that a given file uses, using a modifiable list of file extension bindings. Users may also manually set the current language, overriding the extension's default language. The program also supports autocompletion for a subset of the API of some programming languages.
Users can also define their own language (for syntax highlighting) and its respective API (for autocompletion) by using the built-in User Language Define System. Users may configure the syntax highlighting's font styles per element, per language, and the resulting formatted script may be printed in full-color (WYSIWYG). Additionally, Notepad++ displays indent guidelines when source code is indented with tab characters, and highlights closing braces, brackets and tags.
Plugins
Notepad++ has support for macros and plugins. Currently, there are 27 official plugins for Notepad++, 10 of which are included by default in the program. The first plugin to be included in the program was "TextFX", which includes features such as W3C validation for HTML and CSS, text sorting, character case alteration and quote handling.
Hopefully that answers your question!
Ha I did mean Notepad++!! That's probably why I couldn't find much info on Wordpad lol.
I use it cause it allows you to save stuff as unix/linux. When you write code with regular notepad it adds under
un-wanted characters messing **** up. Notepad ++ dont do this

I use it because of all of the features. There is no comparison. The main features I use are the code formatting, comparison, advanced search and replace & spell checker just to name a few.

10 little chars
Is there any possibility to display only the X characters from a string?
Like the LEFT$ function in Basic for example.
I'm trying to fit a certain string in a box (see image below).
Thank you,
Tikl
I found it!
You have to use a rich text module (I was using only text) and the [tr] BB code will format the text as you will.
It even adds '...' at the end of a trimmed text!

Hello,
I can get regular fonts into zooper, however these other fonts i have downloaded i can't get to work because the keys aren't assigned like regular ttf fonts it seems. It comes with like css files and a bunch of other files where i think the icons in the font are assigned to different things, but i have no idea if this is even possible to get into zooper. The pictures i included are what is included with the font.

You need to open the index.html file to check which character is assigned to which key. If its a-z keys you just use those letters in zooper to display corresponding character. If there are codes instead (like &#e001; etc) you could make an iconset to display your characters OR if you have the font svg files (in your screenshot) you can upload them to an iconfont generator site like Icomoon and assign your own keys, at least that's how I do it.

Thanks man, i went to icomoon like you said and got to work.
hello, i am relatively new to zooper, but I'm pretty good with tasker.
I'm creating a basic notification widget, and i have it sending and updating the notification numbers just fine, but I am lazy and i don't wan't to have to copypasta the color codes/font sizes 12 times whenever i change my mind (frequently).
I have a tasker widget called" Zooper Widget Vars" pushing these commands (via the Zooper Widget Pro Variable plugin) (brackets are obviously not in the code)
configuration #TZFLG# = 50 (large size for icons)
configuration #TZFSM# = 10 (small size for numbers)
configuration #TZFLGC# = #ffffffff (color for icons)
configuration #TZFSMC# = #ff66d5da (color for numbers)
And i just press play whenever i want to send the variables to Zooper.
in zooper, in a rich text module, I have:
[s=#TZFSM#][c=#TZFSMC#]#TWHATSAPPCT#[/c][/s]
and in another Rich text module I have:
[s=#TZFLG#][c=#TZFLGC#]f[/c][/s]
#TZFSM#,#TZFLG#,#TZLGC# and #TZFSMC#
#TWHATSAPPCT# updates just fine. Problem is, #TZFSM# and #TZFSMC# do not update the widget until #TWHATSAPPCT# changes. #TZFLG# and #TZLGC# do not change at all unless I manually change the letter icon and change it back, which is, quite frankly, a pain in the ass.
I have tried just sticking #TZFSM#,#TZFLG#,#TZLGC# and #TZFSMC# in an RT module without the BBcode around them, and their values do print out, so I know that Zooper is actually receiving them, but its just ignoring them when they are enclosed in BBtags.
In layman's terms, the widget will not redraw with the new color and size parameters unless the content that the bbcode is modifying changes. Ive spent about 2 hours youtubing and googleing and wiki-ing, and I've decided I'm a noob and should just ask for help.
thank you so much in advance for any assistance.

P.S. though I think that ZW Utilities is a lovely little tool, it does not solve the lack of size updates, so please do not direct me there.

Instead of entering the bbcode in the text field with the text did you try separating it out and entering it in the advanced parameters field.

in the end i figured it out with putting all of the styling in the advanced params space and the content in the text area
thanks for your help!
