Don't use Emojis ? :P
I mean it must be something specific to your emoji.
Using standard UTF8 symbols instead works fine here..

Jokes aside, the team will take a look and fix.
But yes, using emojis in general is not a good idea.. :p

You're right about using rather unicode characters, though! Will do.

Emoji are unicode characters, how else did you get them there in the first place

Well... It was strange, the button kept being with a black background even when I removed every special character and filled a plain text label.

Just to clear something, for technical reasons, I said that I use a symbol of the UTF8 subset.
Technically UTF8 is an encoding standard, while Unicode is a character set.
In theory the symbol used for the emoji above could belong to UTF16 encoding instead of UTF8 and that maybe could be a reason of the issue (that was my initial thought)
But it seems something else is the real reason and not the symbol itself.
More technical blah blah: Quick filters are stored inside settings.xml
Settings.xml file in my system is a UTF-8 encoded file.
Therefore I made the thought that perhaps the user tried to use a character that's later down the unicode page and belongs to utf-16. Which means that it could or could not get stored properly depending on how VirtualDJ deals with it :)

Utf8 and utf16 are not subsets, they are ways to encode Unicode code points, and any unicode code point can be encoded with either utf8, 16 or 32

FYI : I put some emoji in my list folders too, some of them appear nicely, some don't.
I understand this is risky to step out of standard characters, yet it’s bringing some fun in my interface ✨

Could you paste the emoji you tried to use here?
I tried several, but they all showed up fine

Hum.... It was ⭐ emoji.
But, after reboot, and after re-creation, it's now displaying correctly.
So fuzzy bug. As it is just a minor display issue, you probably should discard it.
