Currently, when the user opens the chat screen, the app gets the messages and scrolls to the bottom by default. The user wants to get more messages from the server as he/her scrolls up.

Add support for markdown format.

Hello,

 

It would be great to be able to tag an author with @.

The idea is to provide an authors list like in skype :

The authors list could be setted with binding from ViewModel by example. Message could have a tagged authors list too in order to easily send a notification to all tagged users from ViewModel.

 

Regards,

Currently, the MessageGroup uses a default string format of 't'. Allow setting a different format. For example, the RadChat control can expose a new CreationDateFormat property.

Hello!

I wounder how you support the use of emojis in the WPF Chat component. Or is it supported?

Best regards

Hans

Provide text formatting options while typing in the chat textbox. The formatted text should be properly visualized as well. 

Currently, the chat messages are not virtualized meaning that all message visuals will be layout. Add a built-in UI virtualization feature that will allow generating only the messages in the viewport.

When using RadChat control and running the application, 2 binding errors appear in the Output Tab of Visual Studio.

System.Windows.Data Error: 4 : Cannot find source for binding with reference 'RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType='Telerik.Windows.Controls.RadPromptInput', AncestorLevel='1''. BindingExpression:Path=Padding; DataItem=null; target element is 'RadGlyph' (Name=''); target property is 'Margin' (type 'Thickness')
