Toggling "Direct Chat" in chat settings slider broken
When toggling the direct chat slider under chat settings on a group chat the slider is broken and doesn't want to slide
iPhone X iOS 15.5
Hi there @UnixPhonez, I believe this is expected behaviour as Matrix treats group chats as private rooms rather than direct chats. I will close this for the time being but we can re-open the issue should this be a bug.
Thank you very much for filing an Issue and don't hesitate to do so again in the future. Thanks for trying Syphon!
@dnisbetjones It's not expected behavior. Technically they are the same, but there is a label (m.direct
), which makes them appear as DM or group.
Please reopen.
Reopening after clarification. Cheers @notramo
There is another case where you could ask yourself why you cannot move the slider. When you create a group chat and are the only user you can't move it. In the logging I can see the reason:
[ERROR] [toggleDirectRoom] Cannot toggle room to direct without other users
In these cases it would be better for the usability if the slider would be disabled. And maybe it would also be helpful to show a message to the user.
