Windows Phone make Segoe UI symbol not appear as emoticon
I want to use the airplane Segoe UI Symbol in my C#/XAML Windows Phone 8 application.
I am inserting the symbol into my page like this:
<TextBlock>✈</TextBlock>
The symbol appears correctly in the "preview" pane in Visual Studio:
However, when I run the application in the simulator or on the phone, it appears like this:
This symbol looks the same as the one found in the emoticon keyboard:
How can I use the Segoe UI airplane symbol so that it appears totally white and not green as it appears in the emoticon keyboard?
Solution
You can prevent this behaviour by setting the DisplayColorEmoji value to False (default is True):
<TextBlock TextOptions.DisplayColorEmoji="False">✈</TextBlock>
This will stop the conversion you're seeing.
