Hi @tjhleeds
I'm sorry, but I don't completely understand. Do you mean you use those in the comment body? Unfortunately, Azure DevOps doesn't support emojis in the UI besides theπ, one can add emojis in the comment's text, so I'm wondering if you refer to that.
I mean in the PR Description. Does this screenshot of the Azure DevOps UI help clarify what I'm referring to?
The β and β emojis have different meanings for my team, so it's important for me to accurately distinguish them. This is still possible in black and white, it's just harder.
Yes thanks for the clarification
@tjhleeds Hi
I added an option to edit the description to the latest release.
The IDE supports emojis by default, so you can use them to edit the description, and it should be rendered properly:
In the IDE: In Azure DevOps Portal:
Hope this is what you meant.
Sorry, I've only just realised I didn't include a screenshot of what I see within AZD. It's all black & white for me:
Given your screenshot has colour emojis, I wonder if this is a problem caused by some other extension/setting within Rider, rather than a problem within AZD. If that's the case, sorry for the confusion! I'll see if I can find a Rider setting which is affecting this.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This really is just a nice to have, but it would be good if emojis were colourful. My team uses a checklist in our PR descriptions, and uses emojis to make different points stand out. For example, β and β are very obviously different when using colourful emojis, but the difference is much more subtle in the black & white emojis which AZD uses when displaying the PR description.
Describe the solution you'd like
Ideally use the same emoji font (or whatever it is that makes the difference) as Azure DevOps, but I imagine any way of displaying emojis with colour would meet my needs.
Describe alternatives you've considered
None
Additional context
I haven't checked how emojis are rendered in PR comment threads, but the same request would apply there.
