Dividers

A divider is a horizontal rule built from custom emoji, inserted from the Dividers picker in any message editor.

A divider is a horizontal rule built from custom emoji, inserted from the Dividers picker in any message editor.

Overview

You pick a preset (the line's look and animation) and a colour; the divider is inserted as a row of custom emoji, one per cell — 11 cells.

The same panel has a Spacer Emoji button above the preset list: one invisible custom emoji that adds whitespace Telegram would otherwise collapse. It is not a divider — no colour, no preset.

Presets

25 presets. Each row previews live in the currently selected colour.

Insert vs. mint

If the preset and colour combination already exists, the divider inserts instantly. Otherwise the panel mints a new emoji set:

Minting a new preset + colour combination

  1. Progress reads “queued…”, “building…”, then “uploading…”. Past 20 seconds it shows “waiting out a Telegram rate limit (back-to-back mints)….”
  2. It gives up after 12 minutes with “mint timed out — check the emoji panel later.”
  3. On success, the new tiles insert automatically. If they come back without emoji glyphs, the panel shows “minted — find it under Emoji → Banners” instead.

Where the picker surfaces

The Dividers button sits next to the emoji picker button in these message editors:

CommandsDashboard → Management → Commands
Automations, including its Recap editorDashboard → Beta → Automations
Raid BotDashboard → Beta → Raid Bot

Beta

Automations, Raid Bot and Hyperlink Nav are dashboard beta-tab features.

A divider inside a finished hyperlink nav is 12 cells, not 11.

When building a nav you don't pick from the 25 presets above: you pick one of the nav's themes and a colour from the colours that theme offers. The theme fixes which divider look is used.

Retired presets

Six older presets — solid, glint, eclipse, aurora, eye, stitch — were retired on 2026-09-06 and are no longer offered. Their emoji packs are not deleted.
