Hi all again :D

I need to implement a chat system in my application.
Is there a way to insert image and text together in an edit box ?

Currently we don't have such functionality. You can manually create widget containers with text and images and control them. We'll add example of implementation later.

i have the also a problem to make a good chat out of widgets. How can i achieve a wrap multiline chat that works even when the window gets rescaled and scrolled? We tried to use textwrapboxes into a scrollview widget, but it is impossible to controll the scrolling well for it.

Highway, you can create Edit with word wrap and vertical scroll enabled, without scrollview at all and set Stretch alignment for it. I think it will be enough.

Yeah, that is a good idea. But then its not possible to add a buddyicon or select the user ( chat lines) to open his profile. Is there something else that could be done? I used a list before I needed wordwrap
