+## Huge Emojis
+**Problem:** When using the Noto Emoji font, Emojis appear extremely big on the bar. Setting the `size` property doesn't help.
+
+**Fix:** Add the `scale` property to the font definition in your config. For example `font-7 = NotoEmoji:scale=10`. The larger the number the smaller the Emojis.
+
+This issue was discovered in [`#905`](https://github.com/jaagr/polybar/issues/905).

## Click Commands are not Executed
**Problem:** Some `click-*` commands are not executed when the bar is clicked. This is a bug that is triggered by the `click-*` command producing output on `stdout` or `stderr`.
