| Feb 4, 2017 at 1:06 | comment | added | phuclv | @Dan no one draws that much code points, and almost no fonts contain characters for all Unicode code points. The font renderer will substitute glyphs from another font when the current font doesn't contain those glyphs. Why isn't there a font that contains all Unicode glyphs? | |
| Feb 3, 2017 at 21:25 | comment | added | Dan | Ah, I didn't mean to imply that they should all be colored, merely that drawing that many of anything is enough to make me not want to complicate (i.e. color) any of them. Haha. | |
| Feb 3, 2017 at 20:07 | comment | added | pulsejet | @Dan, I only meant that there are not 128,000 symbols that would have to be colored. Not saying there are not many to color, but that's nowhere close to 128,000. | |
| Feb 3, 2017 at 20:00 | comment | added | Dan | I don't understand your distinction. Aside from the very few non-renderable codes, don't the Japanese and Mandarin characters/symbols also have to be drawn by someone in order to be rendered? Sorry, I'm a bit naive about how Unicode works. | |
| Feb 3, 2017 at 16:49 | comment | added | pulsejet | @Dan, 128,000 is the number of characters, not symbols. These include language characters too, which are huge in number for languages like Japanese or Mandarin. | |
| Feb 3, 2017 at 16:10 | comment | added | Dan | 128,000 is a lot of icons to draw. I don't blame the artists for going with black-and-white icons instead of full color. | |
