Pull request overview
Adds an opt-in “consecutive message grouping” feature to make chat threads more compact by grouping adjacent messages from the same sender on the same day (hiding repeated sender names/avatars and tightening spacing). This directly addresses the requested behavior in issue #128.
Changes:
- Added
enableConsecutiveMessageGroupingtoFeatureActiveConfig(defaultfalse). - Computed
isFirstInGroup/isLastInGroupat the list-item level and passed them intoChatBubbleWidget. - Updated bubble UI to conditionally show sender name/avatar and adjust bottom spacing; added documentation and changelog entry.
