Emojify company pseudo-buffers

Hmm, I think this might be difficult to achieve, I am not sure if the display property can be applied to text in a overlay.

I researched this a bit currently I think this is impossible to do. Text is displayed in overlay using the display property. Displaying images also consists of adding the display property to some text. As such to display an image in the overlay I will have to add a display property to the text used as display property of the overlay. Unfortunately recursive display properties are not supported.

I am closing this for now, however feel free to reopen if you have an alternate approach in mind.

Thank you for researching this @iqbalansari.

Hi @ryanprior,

Just wanted to inform you emojify can now display emoji inside company-mode tooltips. I pushed the change on master it might take some time before it becomes available on MELPA.

The functionality is disabled by default just set emojify-company-tooltips-p to t to enable it (and you will also need emojify-mode to be on).

Thanks
