🤓Xplan Hint: Embrace the Emoji

Did you know you can add emojis to the Xplan interface?

Ever looked at your Xplan menu or page and scrolled up and down looking for the exact item?  Would an image help?

As you can see I have added an emoji to Key Details (menu), Main (page) and Title (field).

Emojis are part of the Unicode standard, just like regular letters and numbers. If your computer's operating system or browser supports them, they will display correctly.

To add an emoji:

  1. Go to Admin > Interface > Interface
  2. Select which menu/page/field you want to add the emoji to
  3. Select the "title"
  4. Open the emoji keyboard
    • Windows: Press Windows key + . (period)
    • Mac: Press Control + Command + Space
  5.  Insert the desired emoji directly into the text field

    I confess, I am an emoji fan - even if AI's overuse of them makes me nervous that someone will think I didn't write my own posts. 🤣 I can't them let go! Something so simple can make the Xplan browsing experience a little easier on the eye and draw attention to key menu items. Thanks for sharing!!

    Thanks for sharing andrew.wilson.0​! love or loathe 'em but emojis definitely make things more scannable - and so to have them available in Xplan is a game-changer 🤩
