Chat should open at/navigate to "new messages" marker #76

Open Flohack74 opened 7 years ago

Flohack74 commented 7 years ago

When a chat is opened that has new messages inside, the new messages marker is not always visible and one has to scroll back. Could be a timing issue. Maybe best is to prevent scrolling until the user has reached the end for the first time after opening the window or IDK.

sometimes it happened to me that when I opened a chat it crolled correctely to the "new messages" marker but then some images/media were loaded so the chat scrolled and it was not on the marker...

Flohack74 commented 6 years ago

Yes this I know. But the greater deal is that it only scrolls to new messages marker if there are max 50 new messages,. this is what gets loaded. I need to re-think the loading a bit.

To stabilize the window when media is loading is beyond my skills probably ;)

mymike00 commented 6 years ago

yes, I know about the 50 messages. maybe the app could only wait for the media loading, but it will wait to much if there are lots of messages...

Flohack74 commented 6 years ago

I try now to load n messages where n = min(50, count_of_new_msg) - lets test this a bit, should be better now. Unfortunately the blue marker is now sometimes right above the first emssage, we need to maybe load n + 4 or so messages ;)

mymike00 commented 6 years ago

Yeah, but anyway if you wait a bit, the messages before the number n are loaded and with them also the marker is loaded
