Hi,
I have an idea for usability improvement to text links in chat messages on the Windows app.
Whenever I mark some text to turn it into a link (CTRL+ALT+K), Jami highlights my text instead of the “url” portion where I need to paste my link. Why does it do that? It makes no sense to me. I have already written the text that I want to convert to a link and I don’t want to change it. I just want to post the link that I’ve copied so the logical thing is to highlight the “url” portion where the link goes, am I wrong?
Another thing that you may consider is not having the links immediately visible in the chat box at all as this clutters things and makes everything unsightly. Why not have the text link highlighted in blue color, with the URL completely hidden until the user puts the cursor over the linked text as any other app does? It is much more convenient and easier on the eyes.
