Emojis using draw text

New comment
 
I sometimes use windows emojis at the draw text and worked perfectly but after I updated to version 5505 stopped working now only shows a question mark, I just uploaded to images showing how was before the update and now how it is, at the white picture it was still working than on the red picture the emojis doesn't work anymore it only shows a question mark
 

So version 5505 needs improvement..

I  also reported which the foreground color when selected to none now is white instead of no color  as you can see at this picture the color is selected to none but the edges is still white this affect the object description

All about MT5 updates.

This topic will be used to bring together all information about MT5 updates process. This is NOT for chitchat.

  1. To avoid undesirable update you need to work with account(s) from a BROKER. Using their server(s) and/or website to get one.
  2. On the FIRST installation of MT5, from a mt5setup.exe you got from a broker site, it's very probable you will get the last BETA update. But after that you will get only official release updates.
  3. MetaQuotes-Demo is NOT for testing your strategy or to be used as a demo account for trading practice. It's for TECHNICAL testing and using it, you have a very great chance to get a beta update.
  4. When an official update is available, it will be pushed automatically, you will be notified about and invited to restart the MT5 Terminal.
  5. The last official update is always the last one announced on this forum. It's also announced on the News category of metatrader5.com website.
  6. ALL builds with a number higher than the last official release are BETA builds.

If you don't want to be a beta-tester, and so you don't want to receive beta-build :

  • NEVER connect to MetaQuotes-Demo server.
  • NEVER use MT5 Terminal Help menu=>Check for Updates=>Last Beta Version.
