[115ek]

Expected behaviour

all emojis should be displayed in the same way (either iOS, or android or custom...) in portrait and landscape mode (when typed in editTextBox and not sent yet)

Actual behaviour

-in portrait mode the emojis are shown in iOS style
-in landscape mode they are shown in default android style
(typed in editTextBox, not sent)

Steps to reproduce

1.portrait mode: insert emoji, don't send
2.change screen rotation to landscape
3.open keyboard

Environment

Android version: CyanogenMod 14.1

Device model: iyokan / Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro

localization: german

I cannot reproduce this on 4.0.0-beta5 on CyanogenMod 14.1 on my Motorola Moto E 2015 LTE (surnia). Are you sure that in the second screenshot you're not using the keyboard's emoji button instead of Kontalk's emoji button?

I used the Kontalk emoji button (emojicon library) to insert the smiley once, then rotated the device and opened the keyboard in landscape mode. I have also tested with an Android 4.1.1 device and official Kontalk 4.0.0 beta 6 basic release.

Despite having disabled the system behaviour leading to that input mode, some input methods (read: AOSP keyboard) insist in making the input window their own way and I'm not sure I can control it from the application. I'll investigate.

Found it. However this will disable the fullscreen landscape view it may affect smaller screens.

However, most IM apps seem to be doing the same, so...
