Hi,

In our chat application we receive Author avatars as byte arrays. I see that in the chat control the Avatar property on Author is a string and it isn't clear how one would use a dynamic image, is there any guidance on achieving this?

thanks

Hi,

We are currently trying to integrate the chat UI with our Xamarin app, and things are going ok however on iOS the rendering of the control looks a little less polished and bits are missing. I have attached an image demonstrating it in this post. I have annotated the image. On Android these issues are not a problem.

The Telerik controls have been installed via the official Nuget package source. We are using the latest version of Xamarin Forms and the Telerik controls.

Questions;

1. How can we improve the iOS rendering?

2. How can we further customise the entry box etc.? I see another post reference a control template, but I can't seem to find the control template XAML anywhere?

many thanks

Good Day 

it looks like i am the only one testing this control  lol , i have made it to work  , i am just missing a few things. 

 

1) How do you remove a specific chat from a Chat List  ? 

2) How do you Select Chat and be show selected Chats ?

3) How do you Clear the Whole Radchat Control ?

4) How do you refresh by adding new chat item wihout the whole control flickering ?

5) i am currently using a webservice to bind the chat and its working nice. now i want to refresh it on intervals. How is that normally done without Push Notification ? (OneSignal does not always work) 

 

Thanks 

 

 

Thanks

Hello,

I started testing the ConversationalUI today and I couldn't find on documentation if it is possible to display author name and hide the avatar.

Is it possible to do it?

If not, is it possible to use a custom layout?

Thanks
