Text Message
The TextMessage
class is intended to be used for sending a simple string type message. It exposes the following properties:
-
Text
—The Text property gets or sets the text that will be displayed in the TextMessage instance. -
Author
—The Author property provides information about the author of the text message. -
Status
—This property allows you to specify a status for the TextMessage instance. -
CreationDate
—This property provides the ability to specify a DateTime object for the creation date of the text message.
In order to display a status for the message, the
CreationDate
property needs to be set as well.
Defining a TextMessage
var textMessage = new TextMessage(this.currentAuthor, "Some text message", "sent", DateTime.Now);
textMessage.InlineViewModel.StatusVisibility = Visibility.Visible;
this.chat.AddMessage(textMessage);
