Not yet using the new APIs, but ready to. Still to do:
- Send sync messages on trust decisions
- Respond to received trust decision sync messages
- Show trust decisions in the conversation history
- In that rare situation where a sent message ends up with a key error
make it easy to retry the send.
FREEBIE
Also:
- All the necessary wire-up to update things in real time. If you have
a safety number page up via a group member view as well as via a 1:1
conversation with that contact, they'll both be updated as the
underlying model changes. Similarly, the overall group will update
in real-time as members change.
- A bit of special-casing for yourself in a group conversation - you're
shown as 'me' and are not clickable, where normally that would take you
to the Safety Number screen for that contact. You are also not included
in the trust calculations for a given group.
FREEBIE
Note that we're removing position: relative for the contact class, and
there might be some unexpected layout impacts. Thus far I haven't seen
any.
FREEBIE
- Last seen indicator now spans the full conversation, with subtle
shadow highlights above and below
- Scrollbars now overlap the content of the conversation, allowing last
seen indicator to touch the right edge of the window.
- The iOS and Android conversation background is now #eee instead of
white, which meant that the outgoing messages (Android) and incoming
messages (iOS) had to be updated for contrast. They now have white
backgrounds.
- Similarly, the scroll down button needed more contrast, and its
background is now white in light themes.
FREEBIE
Adding the class `.text-security` to the body element will (should) turn
all names, phone numbers, and message bodies into unreadable squares.
Nice to have when you want to screenshot without leaking too much info.
Note that emojis and images are not obscured.
This isn't fully baked or exposed as a feature. You have manually
inspect and tweak the DOM to enable it, but I leave it here for the
benefit of devs and other "frequent flyers" of our issue tracker.
// FREEBIE
Fix some visual bugs occuring at large font size:
* Contact names break onto the next line after their avatars in
message detail screen
* Settings menu font-size failed to scale
* Handle Content overflow in modals.
// FREEBIE
Move the global header inside the left pane only, expand conversation
panels to full bleed, restyle conversation list items and selected state.
// FREEBIE
This flow broke a bit with transition to modal debug log.
Restructure such that the loading class can be applied to an appropriate
element inside the modal. Ensure that the input elements are hidden when
submit is clicked, the result elements are shown when the log upload is
completed.
// FREEBIE
The button for the conversation menu was rendering on top of the global
menu since the global menu was part of a position-fixed element and thus
except from the normal document flow.
// FREEBIE
Remove the 1px gray border around the window. This allows to the window to integrate seamlessly with custom window managers which use the background color for the titlebar.
The file input area has a transparent border. When a file is dragged
above that area, the border turns blue. This helps the user understand
that this is the correct drop-off area.
Messages with images or media were causing the scroll position to jump
around when they loaded, because rendering them changed the height of their
elements from 0 to full-height sometime after they were inserted into
the DOM.
Now when rendering attachments, we wait for them to load so they can
render at full height immediately, then warn our parent message list
before and after a potential height change, so the scroll position can
be saved and reset.
// FREEBIE
Only load the most recent messages when initially rendering a
conversation. Scrolling to the top of a message list loads older
messages.
This required some slight refactoring of how we insert message elements
into the dom. If the message is added to the end of the collection,
append it at the end. Otherwise, assume it is an older message and
prepend it.
When adding elements to the top, reset the scrollPosition to its
previous distance from scrollHeight. This keeps the current set of
elements fixed in the viewport.
// FREEBIE
Bubbles are limited to 30em to facilitate comfortable reading length.
The width of the message list is limited to aid visual threading
of the conversation. The overall layout is restricted to 1300px and
centered if the window is much wider.
The header avatar resizes responsively to save room when the window
gets narrow
// FREEBIE
Styled the conversation list items so that:
- Timestamp is on the same line as the name
- The message text on an unread conversation is ligher than the rest of
the text
Resolves: #379
Makes the groupupdate and recipient input fields stick to the top,
restyles the typeahead as a floating dropdown list of suggestions
rather than a full width component, fixes group avatar thumbnail
rendering.
// FREEBIE
Used by member list view. Refactored some templates for shared markup.
Fixes strange behavior where members in the list were hoverable and
selectable.
// FREEBIE
Establishes basic functionality for viewing conversations in two column
mode, including message area and message list resizing, and maintaining
scroll position.
Various subviews need to be retooled but are more or less still
functional, i.e., new message, message detail, key verification, etc...
Fixes#264
Implement the equivalent of java's String.hashCode on the conversation model.
Change avatar template and attributes. Use css classes for colors.
On the conversations list, if the last message is too long, cut it with ellipsis (...) instead of going out of the screen.
On the single conversation view, if the message in the bubble contains a word that is longer than a bubble, break it anyway instead of going out of the screen.
