Hi,

In the chat visual structure is it possible to have a microphone icon within the message area? This is to support the user speaking their message as oppose to typing it via the app keyboard.

Thanks,

Euan

Hi Euan,

The Chat control has templates so you can use them to add the icon/control inside. More about chat templates review the documentation: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/maui/controls/chat/item-template-selector 

If you want to add the icon inside the area where entering text, let me know and I will send the template here.

I have attached the Chat ControlTemplate. You can modify it according to the concrete requirements you have - just make sure to leave the elements which have "PART_" in their name in the template. The area with the entry and send button is the PART_InputAreaGrid

The command for sending the messages is ActualSendMessageCommand and used in the ChatEntry ReturnCommand as well as the ImageButton next to it.
