I have a chat widget configured like this:
let chat = $(target).kendoChat({ messages: { placeholder: ResourceManager.GetInstance().getResource("SR_TYPE_A_MESSAGE") }, user: user, post: async (m: kendo.ui.ChatPostEvent) => await this.post(m), }).data("kendoChat");
If the post handler tries to await a call to a web service (to do some translation/tag substitution) then the message is posted to the chat and the results of the web call are ignored.
The current chat widget renders the user-input as an INPUT control, which means it cannot support multi-line support.
Wish for the option of rendering a TEXTAREA control instead of an INPUT for the chat widget:
Something like the following:
let chat = $(target).kendoChat({
messages: {
placeholder: ResourceManager.GetInstance().getResource("SR_TYPE_A_MESSAGE"),
textarea: true
},
user: user,
post: async (m: kendo.ui.ChatPostEvent) => await this.post(m),
}).data("kendoChat");
