This means that all content models will now come from the same source to remove duplication across multiple models and `chatbarcaches`.
It also handily breaks the dependency on needing `MessageContentModel` for `NeochatRoom`
This merge request adds a simple "Read Text Aloud" menu action to the context menu for chat messages. When clicked, the message text will be read aloud using text-to-speech.
The intention behind this change is to make it easier for myself and other low-vision users to use Matrix, without needing to use a system-wide screen reader, in cases where the user still has enough sight left to navigate a computer faster without a screen reader.
I'd eventually like to have it read " said ," so that the message sender gets read aloud as well, but for now it just reads the plaintext message contents.
Another problem, at least on my computer specifically, is that the voice's accent doesn't seem correct. For whatever reason, on my system, messages are read in a Scottish accent which is harder for me to understand. Other apps don't do that, so I'm not sure what's going on there. I do not want to hardcode a specific voice/locale, since I want this feature to work well for everyone and not just me.
@teams/qa Please do break my code! :) - I've only tested with basic text messages.
@teams/usability Not sure if I put the context menu action in an ideal place, it's grouped in the same area as clipboard actions like "Copy Text."
@teams/localization How could I go about getting author names to be read aloud in a way that's properly translated for other languages? I'm not experienced with i18n.
Make `DelegateSizeHelper` take a `QQuickItem` rather than a width value and move `TimelineDelegate` to use it rather than duplicting the code.
This requires the creation of `LibNeoChat` so that both the main and timeline modules can get access to the class.
Note: ideally more stuff will go into `LibNeoChat` but it turns out our dependencies are kinda spaghetti like and so will take some untangling.
Only the pkg_config part in Findcmark is quiet, which also shouldn't
put out as a status message.
Fixes:
```
Missing these optional packages:
* Qt6QmlCompilerPlusPrivateTools (required version >= 6.8.2)
```
We realized that images don't display in link previews anymore, because
QML is terrible and this property is a QUrl, so when we call .length it
silently fails and never loads the image. This is easily fixed by
calling .toString().
There's also another bug where the title ie elided way too greedily, but
we can simplify the elision check and fix the bug at the same time.
No more "Hom..."!
Our HIG explicitly says we can do this for links, and these components
are literally giant links. This might also help differentiate these from
similar looking components like quotes for desktop users.
For long links, this ends up going "off" the window (not really of
course.) One good example is Bugzilla filter URLs which are ungodly
huge. So eliding these just makes it look better, browsers do this too.
Fix showing polls and update the events and PollHandler to make them easier to work with.
Add a PollAnswerModel to visualise poll answers.
Enable sending polls.
This is mostly just for text type messages at the moment but give the framework so that when other message types can be sent in threads they can be added easily
Create Message attached property to propagate parameters like room, timeline, index and maxContentWidth down to the message content avoiding lots of boilerplate
There is no need for NeochatConnection to depend on ThreePIdModel and also this means it's not in memory when not needed.
Also a little cleanup to make sure only a single job can run at a time.
