**Resolved** Chat entry area too small
-
On the “See all chats” page the text entry box is only one line tall, when there is ample room for a much larger box. This makes it difficult to enter all but the simplest of chats. Also, it has been my experience that hitting a carriage return (yep, I’m old) sends the chat instead of entering a new-line–this is not intuitive, especially if the visible lines are increased.
This behavior might have changed, but I don’t want to spam some poor user to try this out.
Note: I am using no skin.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention @wallyky. The size of the chat text entry box was addressed by @dangeRuss here: https://phatwalletforums.com/topic/370/resolved-pm-s-chat-space. When he increased it from 1 to 3 lines, I believe it was intended to apply to all chat boxes (both the pop up and the full screen), so let’s see what he says.

Indeed it is! Thank you. @wallyky, does it work for you, and can we mark this resolved?

It looks like it matches the pop-up text entry box with about 2.5 lines of text visible.
I’ve never seen such rapid response from a dev team, so kudos to all (especially @dangeRuss)!

I’ve never seen such rapid response from a dev team, so kudos to all (especially @dangeRuss)!I absolutely have to agree. You would hardly know they’ve had such short notice and limited resources given what they’re accomplishing here (and the development team has been mostly @dangeRuss until a couple of days ago).

@wallyky I’m marking this help request resolved. That doesn’t lock the thread, so please feel free to reply again if you have additional comments/concerns on this topic

Tangential issue – I find the comment box a few lines too small. I see just 4 lines in the write-a-reply box. Would you be able to add a couple of lines to it? Would make it easier to proofread and organize one’s entire comment, without lots of scrolling.
