How to show emojis in vscode ubuntu 20.04?

Viewed 3549

I am trying to display the emojis in VSCode from a computer with Ubuntu version 20.04, but pressing the key combination 'Windows' + '.' (period), it does not perform any action, I have already been investigating but I have not found anything about it that gives me a solution, so I still cannot show the emojis, I do not want to install the exemptions in VSCode that by means of: (colon ) shows you the emoji as it causes me noise when programming, it is worth mentioning that I have tried on the windows operating system and the combination works without problems.

I hope and you can help me if I need to install an extra library or if the key combination to show the emojis in Ubuntu is different.

First of all, Thanks.

This worked for me Installed :emojisense: extension press Ctrl + i for opening the extension search bar

Neither ctrl +. nor win +. not working. As of today, there is no such option without installing an additional extension like :emojisense: which has many options, including disabling some bothersome dependencies. I tried it and it's quite okay.I also set up for this extension a hotkey under win +. in Visual Studio Code ;-) I hope You will like it ! Best regards ! :-)
