Inline chat mode #131

Basically the ability to have the chat window (green part below) appear inline instead of always in the bottom right corner in a popup window. This would allow customization like putting ng-chat in a sidebar and using it with other components in other libraries. Also some design methods don't really work well with the chat window always being stuck in the bottom right corner - https://material.io/design/components/buttons-floating-action-button.html

I would assume this might be possible with custom CSS, if that is the preferred method please feel free to close.

I could not find a duplicate issue or anything that indicated this had already been considered.

Hi @JacobSiegle ,

Thanks for the suggestion! This hasn't be thought yet and I am unsure if this would be achievable via CSS. Is this something that is a crucial requirement for your application though?

There are other planned features for a next release which in my eyes would have a higher priority than this but let me know your thoughts.

Cheers!
