When composing post, emoji selector covers “toot!” button #4744

Pitch

Sometimes I want to end my posts with a tongue-stuck-out emoticon (:P). When I do this, Tusky opens the emoji selector; and because the emoji selector covers the bottom bar, including the button to send the post, I usually end up accidentally selecting an emoji that I don’t want, which I then have to delete (and re-type the :P).

Would it be possible to make the selector not extend above the bottom bar?

(This also affects other colon-and-letter emoticons, such as :D, but I mostly notice it with :P – depends on what you type more often, I suppose. Non-letter emoticons like :) are of course not affected.)

Motivation

Because it keeps annoying me, I guess. :)

I suppose an alternative solution would be to only start showing the emoji selector after a colon and two letters – that’s what Mastodon web seems to do. (I never realized it before, but it sounds pretty reasonable to me. And might be easier to implement ^^)
