Description:
Add native support for Apple’s
Genmoji
across labels, text widgets, button captions, clip names, menus, and setlist items—complete with inline insertion, precise scaling/baseline alignment, tint/contrast modes, and portable fallbacks so projects remain readable on devices that don’t support Genmoji natively.
Problem:
Performers increasingly use Genmoji for fast, language-agnostic labeling. Today, custom Genmoji can render inconsistently (or not at all) across devices/OS versions, break line height/spacing, and aren’t reliably portable between projects or external displays.
Proposed Solution:
  • Rendering & Baseline:
    Use system Genmoji on compatible iPadOS versions; ensure
    pixel-crisp scaling
    and
    baseline-correct
    alignment inside mixed text. Provide line-height guards so Genmoji never clip or push adjacent text.
  • Embed & Fallbacks:
    Option to
    Embed Genmoji as Assets
    (multi-resolution raster + optional vector/PDF when available) for cross-device portability. On load, if Genmoji isn’t available, auto-swap to the embedded asset; if neither exists, fallback to
    nearest Unicode emoji/icon
    with a warning badge.
  • Picker & Management:
    A Genmoji-aware
    emoji picker
    with search, recents, and categories. Tools to
    Replace Selection with Genmoji
    ,
    Convert to Static Image
    , or
    Revert to Live Genmoji
    .
  • Styling Controls:
    Full-color or
    Monochrome Tint
    (theme-aware), size (% of text size), stroke/outline for high contrast, and “do not exceed” height caps for dense grids.
  • Portability & Export:
    Pack embedded Genmoji with the project (manifest shows size impact). Support in
    Stage Display
    , PDF export, and screenshots.
  • Accessibility:
    Alt text/VoiceOver descriptions; compliance with contrast settings and “reduce motion/flash.”
  • Actions & Variables:
- Actions:
Insert Genmoji
,
Replace With Genmoji
,
Embed/Unembed Genmoji
,
Toggle Tint Mode
,
Convert to Static Image
.
- Vars:
text.containsGenmoji
,
genmoji.count
,
genmoji.embedded
,
genmoji.tintMode
,
widget.lineHeightGuard
.
Benefits:
  • Faster recognition on stage with expressive, language-neutral symbols.
  • Consistent rendering
    across devices and exports thanks to embed/fallback.
  • Cleaner layouts (icons in text) without custom art pipelines.
  • Accessible and theme-aware visuals that hold up under bright or dark conditions.
Examples:
  • A
    Record
    button label includes a tinted Genmoji ● that pulses only while recording.
  • Setlist items display per-song Genmoji (🎤/🎻/🪘) that remain intact when sharing the project.
  • A text widget shows state-driven Genmoji (play/stop/armed) using monochrome tint to match the page theme.
  • On an older backup iPad, embedded Genmoji assets render identically with no missing-glyph surprises.
