Reply to a specific chat line

Description:

Currently, Sametime does not provide a way to reply to specific messages in a chat. In modern messaging applications, the ability to reply to a particular message is essential for maintaining context in conversations, especially in group chats where multiple discussions can happen simultaneously.

Requested Feature:

Introduce a "Reply to Message" feature in Sametime chat that allows users to quote and respond directly to a specific message. This feature should:

  • Display the quoted message above the reply, making it clear which message is being responded to.

  • Work in both 1:1 and group chats.

  • Be accessible via right-click (desktop) and long-press (mobile).

  • Optionally provide a "jump to original" function for better navigation.

Benefits:

  • Improves conversation clarity, particularly in fast-moving discussions.

  • Enhances user experience by aligning with modern messaging expectations.

  • Helps users track and engage in relevant parts of a conversation without losing context.

This feature would significantly enhance the usability of Sametime and bring it closer to industry standards for chat applications.

      Is there a timetable for when the feature will be implemented?

      ...and please do not forget to implement it in the embeded client in HCL Notes. This is still the favourite way of communication - everything is integrated in the Notes-Client !
