Also:
- New schema version 8 with video/image thumbnails, screenshots, sizes
- Upgrade messages not at current schema version when loading messages
to show in conversation
- New MessageDetail react component
- New ConversationHeader react component
UI now in separate renderer:
- the permissions popup
- settings dialog
- debug log dialog
- about window
Couple bug fixes:
- About Window: Fix 'escape' to close window
- Remove outdated dist/copy tasks from Gruntfile
Eslintified settings_view.js
Three locations were changed:
1. a group update, which lists a set of contacts
2. the contact name in the left pane
3. the conversation title
Three new components were added to window.Signal.Components to support
these scenarios, respectively:
1. Emojify
2. ContactName
3. ConversationTitle
Note that there are a number of other places in the app that should be
emojified, but never have been before. Essentially any place that a
contact name might be shown. A non-exhaustive list:
- Show group members
- Show safety number
- Verified change notification
- Disappearing timer change notification
- Contact verification notification
- Quote contact name
* Only show 'send message' on contact detail when user has account
* Make contact detail headers visible in dark mode
* Fix vertical scrolling for very large contact in detail pane
* Fix a couple comment typos
- messages.getQuoteObjectUrl: early return
- backup.js: explaining variables for long if statement
- types/messages.js: Log if thumbnail has neither data nor path
- sendmessage.js:
- remove extraneous logging
- fix indentation
- upload attachments and thumbnails in parallel
- preload: don't load fs for tests, just fse
- _conversation.scss: split two selectors into two lines, 0px -> 0
- backup_test.js: use fse.existsSync and comment twoSlashes regex
- network_tests_view_test.js: Comment duplicate assignment to window.getSocketStatus
Android: The gray border around the quote didn't interact well with the
image, which needed to overlap the border. For now we'll just remove the
border.
Also made the thumbnail image 2px bigger because I noticed that in some
cases there was a partial-pixel space below the image (where the rest of
the quote was making the container bigger).
iOS: The gray border around outgoing quotes was fading into the
background gray color, making the quote look a tiny bit more narrow than
the main message. Removed the border.
Note that substantial changes will be required for the updated Android
mockups, putting the quotation into the text box next to the attachment
preview.
- Remove extra padding at top of Android bubbles, via sibling selector
- Don't include .attachments, .quote-wrapper, .content in bubble unless
we actually need them. This allows for sibling selectors.
- This is a different technique for adding the ReactWrapperView for
quotes - it is now appended to the DOM instead of attaching to
something already in the DOM. This allows us to use .remove(), so it's
a bit cleaner.
- Users of ReactWrapperView can now specify tagName and className
But only if it doesn't have an error.
Also: reformatted message template in legacy_templates.js to match what
is in background.html for easier diffing.
It would have rounded corners inside of the bubble, which is not what
we want. This makes the bubble itself have the rounded corners, and then
it cuts off anything that would extend past its edges.
Turns out that the welcome screen had a min-height which caused weird
things when you take the window down to minimum height. It looked
particularly bad with the new full-screen delete data confirmation
screen.
- A new design for the import flow. It features:
- Icons at the top of every screen
- Gray background, blue buttons, thinner text
- Simpler copy
- A new design for the install flow. It features:
- Immediate entry into the QR code screen
- Animated dots to show that we're loading the QR code from the server
- Fewer screens: 1) QR 2) device name 3) sync-in-progress
- When not set up, the app opens directly into the install screen, which has been streamlined. The `--import` command-line argument will cause the app to open directly into the import flow.
- Support for two different flavors of builds - the normal build will open into the standard registration flow, and the import flavor will be exactly the same except during setup it will open directly into the import flow.
- A new design for the (dev-only) standalone registration view
- When these install sequences are active, the OS File menu has entries to allow you to switch the method of setup you'd like to use. These go away as soon as the first step is taken in any of these flows.
- The device name (chosen on initial setup) is now shown in the settings panel
- At the end of a light import, we hand off to the normal device link screen, starting at the QR code. On a full import, we remove the sensitive encryption information in the export to prevent conflicts on multiple imports.
- `Whisper.Backup.exportToDirectory()` takes an options object so you can tell it to do a light export.
- `Whisper.Backup.importFromDirectory()` takes an options object so you can force it to load only the light components found on disk. It also returns an object so you can tell whether a given import was a full import or light import.
- On start of import, we build a list of all the ids present in the messages, conversations, and groups stores in IndexedDB. This can take some time if a lot of data is in the database already, but it makes the subsequent deduplicated import very fast.
- Disappearing messages are now excluded when exporting
- Remove some TODOs in the tests

Max-width on a message bubble should be about 30em for the good readability.
However, when the window isn't wide enough, bubbles must be further limited.
The transition should happen around the point that these two rules intersect,
but it was kicking in a little late, which caused the bubbles to jump from wider
to shorter as you widened the window past a certain point. This change adjusts
the threshold for smoother and more consistent bubble resizing.
The variable name $big-avatar-min-width is an artifact of a past design and was
previously used in multiple places, but it no longer makes sense in this context
so it has been discarded.

New experience in the Message Detail view when outgoing identity key
errors happen, matching the Android View.
'View' button is only shown on outgoing key errors right now.
When a contact with an outgoing identity key error is clicked, they are
taken to a view like the popup that comes up on Android: an explanation
of what happened and three options: 'Show Safety Number', 'Send Anyway',
and 'Cancel'
Contacts are now sorted alphabetically, with the set of contacts with
errors coming before the rest.
FREEBIE
The :before technique for adding the icon was removed, because it
resulted in some rendering issues when the layout pressure in the
message bubble got too high - you would see a partial icon. This
solution shrinks the icon a bit when the filename wants to expand to
take its space.
The iOS bubble width also needed special care to ensure it didn't expand
to accommodate the very wide filenames. Beyond that, overflow: hidden
needed to be applied at several levels to make everything behave as
expected.
FREEBIE
The shield matches the Android app's key change notification, and the
clock icon was easy to do and makes it easier to visually distinguish
those items in the conversation history.
FREEBIE
We also show more errors than we used to in the MessageDetail screen
to help make it clear what is happening, and why the user would need to
re-send.
FREEBIE
A good bit of CSS was required to keep the text color changing along
with the text it is nestled within.
Also: took this opportunity to increase the contrast of the number and
verified section right under the contact name in the group members view.
FREEBIE
Not yet using the new APIs, but ready to. Still to do:
- Send sync messages on trust decisions
- Respond to received trust decision sync messages
- Show trust decisions in the conversation history
- In that rare situation where a sent message ends up with a key error
make it easy to retry the send.
FREEBIE
Also:
- All the necessary wire-up to update things in real time. If you have
a safety number page up via a group member view as well as via a 1:1
conversation with that contact, they'll both be updated as the
underlying model changes. Similarly, the overall group will update
in real-time as members change.
- A bit of special-casing for yourself in a group conversation - you're
shown as 'me' and are not clickable, where normally that would take you
to the Safety Number screen for that contact. You are also not included
in the trust calculations for a given group.
FREEBIE
Sadly, that spacing now needs to be bigger because scrollIntoView
doesn't honor margins which overlap each other to eliminate this kind of
'too much spacing' kind of problem.
FREEBIE
Note that we're removing position: relative for the contact class, and
there might be some unexpected layout impacts. Thus far I haven't seen
any.
FREEBIE
- Last seen indicator now spans the full conversation, with subtle
shadow highlights above and below
- Scrollbars now overlap the content of the conversation, allowing last
seen indicator to touch the right edge of the window.
- The iOS and Android conversation background is now #eee instead of
white, which meant that the outgoing messages (Android) and incoming
messages (iOS) had to be updated for contrast. They now have white
backgrounds.
- Similarly, the scroll down button needed more contrast, and its
background is now white in light themes.
FREEBIE
* Show a pointer cursor on safety number change notification
* Add 'click to verify' to the text shown there
* Add ':' to the text shown on the safety number screen
* Limit the width of the safety number box, to force 3x4 layout
* Center the safety number box
FREEBIE
This is to ensure that when there are a lot of unread messages, the user
is given the chance to see all of them by being scrolled to the oldest
new message.
When a new message comes in, the indicator will be incremented.
When the user sends a message or switches away from the conversation,
the last seen indicator will be removed.
FREEBIE
Add names and sizes for all attachments except images, and (as with
arbitrary attachments), clicking on the text will open a save dialog.

This makes the "x" in the search bar always visible when there is
text in the search box, even if the mouse is not hovering, hopefully
making for a clearer UI around search and resolving issue #741
The implementation adds the "x.svg" as a background image to the search
box when it is classed with .active, in addition to the
-webkit-search-cancel-button, which is still there for the actual
functionality but only appears on mouse hover (one tiny snag is that
coloring appears slightly different on hover, at least on my screen -
don't know if this is a problem).
I accounted for both ltr and rtl text-direction by using
getComputedStyle(...).direction to detect from the input's dir="auto"
- if there's a more elegant way to do this, please suggest. An ideal
solution would use the :dir pseudo-class but it's not implemented
in Chrome yet - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:dir
For now, I added the direction-checking to inbox_view.js. I see that
input.search is also used in new_group_update_view.js and
recipient_input_view.js but neither of these views seem to be in use (?)
and they don't set the .active class anyway, so I ignored them.
Update: Amended version a few hours later - fixed and manually tested
color and spacing for iOS and Android Dark themes. Also made some new
SASS variables to make things DRYer and fixed my tab size.
Handles the edge case where images in the Install steps can obscure the text below them at certain window dimensions.
In most cases, it's not possible to replicate this behavior due to minimum dimension settings in `chromium.js`. However, some window managers (such as i3) can ignore those settings, producing this bug.
This fix introduces a flexible, responsive layout to the Install steps, with the goal of keeping the action buttons in a consistent position while adapting the rest of the content to the remaining available space. The result is a clean, usable screen at any window size.
In the rare instance that a window's dimensions are less than that of the minimums set in `chromium.js`, scrollbars will appear to keep the smallest acceptable layout intact.
Potential side effects:
- Each `.step` element contains an`.inner` flexbox wrapper, which arranges its children in a column. The layout works best when each `flex-item` is an element that wraps the content inside of it. I think I accounted for all the possibilities on the Install screen, but any future `.step` items might want to keep that pattern in mind.
Resolves#1059

Adding the class `.text-security` to the body element will (should) turn
all names, phone numbers, and message bodies into unreadable squares.
Nice to have when you want to screenshot without leaking too much info.
Note that emojis and images are not obscured.
This isn't fully baked or exposed as a feature. You have manually
inspect and tweak the DOM to enable it, but I leave it here for the
benefit of devs and other "frequent flyers" of our issue tracker.

* Fixes hourglasses
* Fix delivered status icon
* Other changes aiming for more consistency of visual structure

* Restores left pane header focus/transition effect.
This breaks the css-purity of our mixin but is necessary in order to
apply the initial offset of the hourglass animation dynamically, since
jquery can't manipulate arbitrary css on psuedo elements.
When initialized, or when expiration-related attributes change, expiring
messages will set timers to self-destruct. On self-destruct they trigger
'expired' events so that frontend listeners can clean up any collections
and views referencing them.
At startup, load all messages pending expiration so they can start their
timers even if they haven't been loaded in the frontend yet.
Todo: Remove expired conversation snippets from the left pane.
Previously we only declared the message body as selectable, but Chrome's
implementation of user-select is a little quirky in that it allows
unselectable text to be copied if you select elements around it. Oddly
enough, styling the entire bubble contents as selectable, including the
timestamp, actually prevents chrome from copying the timestamp text when
it's not supposed to, i.e., when triple-clicking the message body.
