[Messages/fontext] Proper transliteration / bitmap converter option for regional + emojis
This is not proper bug report but rather question for guidance due to my lack of ability for searching codebase of gadgetbridge + banglejs.
With fontext I was able to achieve regional font in messages -> emoji is changed to ascii
With fontext and "text as bitmaps" option in gadgetbridge emoji is proper but now regional characters are also converted. This is same behavior as if I didn't install fontext package.
I tried also mess a bit with transliteration options but no luck there.
This is a bit annoying since messages font is scaled based on how much text will be visible. Bitmaps stays same size tho.
As for now I am almost certain that problem is with my setup or gadgetbridge function to convert problematic strings but I post it here that most likely somebody can help me get proper info before posting it on gadgetbridge repo.
I use combo of nightly builds and 2v26.1 fw
Thanks in advance
Screenshots:
Baseline with or without bitmaps:
Good emoji (bitmaps mode):
But bad regional chars (bitmaps mode):
Good regional chars (normal mode):
But as expected no emojis:
Ok, so what you want is Emoji converted to bitmaps in Gadgetbridge, but not text?
The code that decides what to do is this file here in Gadgetbridge
So I guess maybe the on/off for 'text as bitmaps' could instead be an option that was either: all/emoji only/nothing?
