New experience in the Message Detail view when outgoing identity key
errors happen, matching the Android View.
'View' button is only shown on outgoing key errors right now.
When a contact with an outgoing identity key error is clicked, they are
taken to a view like the popup that comes up on Android: an explanation
of what happened and three options: 'Show Safety Number', 'Send Anyway',
and 'Cancel'
Contacts are now sorted alphabetically, with the set of contacts with
errors coming before the rest.
FREEBIE
The :before technique for adding the icon was removed, because it
resulted in some rendering issues when the layout pressure in the
message bubble got too high - you would see a partial icon. This
solution shrinks the icon a bit when the filename wants to expand to
take its space.
The iOS bubble width also needed special care to ensure it didn't expand
to accommodate the very wide filenames. Beyond that, overflow: hidden
needed to be applied at several levels to make everything behave as
expected.
FREEBIE
The shield matches the Android app's key change notification, and the
clock icon was easy to do and makes it easier to visually distinguish
those items in the conversation history.
FREEBIE
We also show more errors than we used to in the MessageDetail screen
to help make it clear what is happening, and why the user would need to
re-send.
FREEBIE
A good bit of CSS was required to keep the text color changing along
with the text it is nestled within.
Also: took this opportunity to increase the contrast of the number and
verified section right under the contact name in the group members view.
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
Sadly, that spacing now needs to be bigger because scrollIntoView
doesn't honor margins which overlap each other to eliminate this kind of
'too much spacing' kind of problem.
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
* Show a pointer cursor on safety number change notification
* Add 'click to verify' to the text shown there
* Add ':' to the text shown on the safety number screen
* Limit the width of the safety number box, to force 3x4 layout
* Center the safety number box
FREEBIE
This is to ensure that when there are a lot of unread messages, the user
is given the chance to see all of them by being scrolled to the oldest
new message.
When a new message comes in, the indicator will be incremented.
When the user sends a message or switches away from the conversation,
the last seen indicator will be removed.
FREEBIE
Add names and sizes for all attachments except images, and (as with
arbitrary attachments), clicking on the text will open a save dialog.
In the absence of a filename, choose something that makes sense.
Display different icons for different media types, including distinct icons
for voice notes and audio files.
In iOS theme, audio, video, voice, and files are all encapsulated in bubbles.
Closes#804Closes#842Closes#836
// FREEBIE
Make arbitrary files look nicer and display the filename.
If an audio or video element fails to load for any reason, timeout after
a few seconds and render it as an arbitrary file. Also short circuit to
this treatment for common audio and video file types that we know are
going to fail, e.g., proprietary formats from apple.

When initialized, or when expiration-related attributes change, expiring
messages will set timers to self-destruct. On self-destruct they trigger
'expired' events so that frontend listeners can clean up any collections
and views referencing them.
At startup, load all messages pending expiration so they can start their
timers even if they haven't been loaded in the frontend yet.
Todo: Remove expired conversation snippets from the left pane.
Previously we only declared the message body as selectable, but Chrome's
implementation of user-select is a little quirky in that it allows
unselectable text to be copied if you select elements around it. Oddly
enough, styling the entire bubble contents as selectable, including the
timestamp, actually prevents chrome from copying the timestamp text when
it's not supposed to, i.e., when triple-clicking the message body.
Fixes#887
// FREEBIE
Move away from inline style attributes for setting contact colors.
Apply colors by name via css classes instead. Also lays groundwork
for syncing contact colors.
// FREEBIE
The bar is effectively invisible, but having it present means that we
don't see a jarring change in width when the content expands into the
overflow zone and triggers the scrollbar to suddenly appear.
// FREEBIE
For messages that failed to send due to network errors, this change
allows retrying them directly from the main conversation view rather
than only from the message detail view.
// FREEBIE
Move the global header inside the left pane only, expand conversation
panels to full bleed, restyle conversation list items and selected state.
// FREEBIE
Untangle these two views into their component parts, consolidating all
the key conflict logic in the key conflict view. Contact view now simply
renders basic contact info and miscellaneous errors but not conflicts or
message errors.
