Chat and CC panels showed oldest messages at the top when opened because
scrollIntoView was called on hidden (display: none) elements where it
silently does nothing. Now we skip scrolling on mount for hidden tabs
and defer it to when each tab first becomes visible, while preserving
the user's scroll position on subsequent tab switches.
Adds touch-screen support for resizing filmstrip and chat panels to enable tablet and touch-laptop users to adjust panel widths. Previously, drag handles only worked with mouse hover, making panels non-resizable on touch devices.
Changes:
- Implement Pointer Events API for unified mouse/touch handling
- Add touch device detection with screen size threshold
- Make drag handles always visible on touch devices with padding for easier tapping
- Maintain identical visual layout between touch and non-touch versions
Touch devices with sufficiently large screens now have fully functional drag handles with appropriate hit targets while smaller devices remain disabled to preserve mobile UX.
* Change stage view and use newly reducedUImainToolbarButtons config to show different custom buttons as main toolbar buttons for when web is in reduced UI.
This partially reverts commit 02787b1 to avoid looping between request subtitles and start recording which results not closing the start recording dialog.
Introduces a comprehensive disableChat config option that disables the entire chat feature including button visibility, notifications, sounds, private messages, and keyboard shortcuts. When disabled, the chat tab is hidden from the chat panel while allowing other tabs (polls, files, CC) to remain accessible.
Integrates file sharing into the chat interface so uploaded files appear as messages in the chat timeline alongside text
messages.
Changes:
- Created FileMessage component for inline file display in chat
- Extracted FileItem component for reusable file UI across chat and file sharing tab
- Show "A file was deleted" placeholder instead of removing message when file deleted
- Hide message menu (3-dot) when no actions are available for file messages
- Add button backgrounds in chat context to hide text on hover
- Fix timing: local participant only sees file message after upload completes (progress: 100%)
Technical implementation:
- Added fileMetadata field to IMessage interface
- Added isDeleted flag to IFileMetadata for soft-delete state
- Middleware dispatches addMessage when files uploaded (ADD_FILE action)
- Middleware uses editMessage when files deleted to preserve chat history
- Minimal state retention (only isDeleted flag) for deleted files
This provides a unified messaging experience where file sharing is part of the conversation flow.
The display name is used in messages when messages are coming from visitors or from the history. The display name is used only when the participant is not available in the meeting to get its name.
Replaces hard-coded pixel values with relative rem units across UI components to improve typography responsiveness and maintainability.

Before the chat message context menu was appearing on the left if the private chat message was disabled. The fix makes the context menu appear on the left only for messages from the local partcipant which are the only messages rendered to the right (therefore the context menu have to appear on the left side). For all other messages the context menu should appear on the right side because the message is positioned on the left side.
