want to integrate Emoji character support in Textfield in j2me application. Can anyone suggest me, how can I achieve it?
For example, In whatsapp and wechat application, TextField does support Emoji keyboard characters, but in my application it shows ? for each character I type using Emoji keyboard.
It seems that the Native Font installed on your device doesn't include those emoji characters, so it's displayed as question mark.
You still can display it by embed your own Font (Bitmap Font) to your application, then draw it manually to the screen : http://developer.nokia.com/community/wiki/How_to_create_custom_fonts_in_Java_ME
Alternatively, you can use LWUIT library to create & incorporate Bitmap Font :

I'm using text-to-image package to write text on images obviously, but I want to use google or ios emoji instead of my font default emoji. does anybody know how can I do this?
How to use emoji in the Android source code in Android studio or IntelliJ in Windows OS? I want to use emojis in the logcat print messages by choosing emojis from the context-sensitive popup. I could not find the right plugin.
I need the plugin that is used in the picture below. But don't know how to achieve the same. When I googled I get references to emoji-compat for showing emoji in the android application's soft keyboard dialog. But I want to use emoji in the source code in the comments and logcat only.
Update: I thought it is an android studio feature. But it is available as soft touch keyboard in windows 10. "WIN + ;" is the shortcut for launching the same.
Now, my next question is how to make the emojis display colorful in windows android studio's code editor and logcat like the way it appears in the Mac.
In Mac it appears like this:
In windows it appears like this in the editor after adding the emoji:
On mac position the cursor in any text field you'd like to insert an
emoji, like posting a tweet for example.
Use the keyboard shortcut Command - Control - Space bar to access
emoji.
Double-click the emoji you'd like to use and it'll be inserted where
you left your cursor.
In your screenshots, the emojis appear to be rendered in a monochrome version in your editor. I've experienced a similar problem with the display of emojis in IntelliJ on macOS.
At first, I thought it was due to a character encoding setting. This turned out to be unrelated as my file encoding is set to UTF-8 everywhere.
After living with the problem for quite some time, the solution I've found to have emojis display right for me is to set the fallback font (for symbols not supported by the main font) to "Apple Color Emoji" for both the editor and the console.
The corresponding UI path for this setting is listed below.
Preferences > Editor > Font
When a color scheme font setting overrides the editor font, then the following paths can apply.
Preferences > Editor > Color Scheme > Color Scheme Font
Preferences > Editor > Color Scheme > Console Font
"Show only monospaced fonts" will need to be disabled temporarily to show the emoji font under "Fallback font".
Additionally, I made "Paste without Formatting" be my default paste option so that emojis can be pasted directly, without risk of being transformed into Unicode escape sequences.
The result is that emojis display as expected for me throughout the IDE, making a big difference to my coding pleasure!
The code editor now correctly handles Unicode emoji characters. On Mac OS X emoji characters are rendered as colored images. On Windows and Linux emoji are rendered as monochrome characters.

In my app i need to show Arabic text and English text in a textview. The Arabic text should be right aligned the English text should be left aligned.
Is it possible with a textview? I have tried using a webview instead of a textview, and I am getting what I need. But scrolling the webview is very slow.
You need to use the same name for the property, selectionString instead of selctionString.
Or you need to declare the property name and make it synthesize:
#synthesize selctionString = selectionString; // Missing "e"
Hi
i have problam in showing arabic words in LWUIT , the arabic words characters are separated and reversed , but it`s work true on nokia , how can i slove this problem ?
thanks
In bitmap fonts Arabic glyph shaping doesn't work because of the unique properties of the language.
You need to use system fonts (which aren't the default in some of LWUIT's themes), in system fonts support for Arabic is up to the device/simulator not all of which support bidi/shaping properly.
Notice some older Sony Erricson devices as well as some other devices such as badly localized Android devices (e.g. Nexus One) don't have proper bidi support. This means their native widgets implement bidi instead of their drawString implementation. Unfortunately there is no way to detect this bug in runtime, so LWUIT can't seamlessly workaround it!
The only solution is to create a version specifically to such devices which manually performs the bidi algorithm on the drawString code, this means replacing the implementation for those devices with an implementation that just overrides the drawString method and performs the bidi algorithm on rendered strings. LWUIT's bidi algorithm is exposed in the Display class.
i want to have default text in a textfield which disappears when the textfield gets focus. similar to the google search box in firefox.
also with java me is it possible to set a background image for a display.
The answer of your second question is easy. Unless you use canvas, it is not possible.
AFAIK you cannot handle focus events on a textfield in J2ME so it is not possible.
