How to render RadChat Image Attachement?

[Randy]

I tried to render an image attachment but it gives an empty bubble. Can anyone provide a working sample?

 

 

chat.renderAttachments({

            attachments: [{

                contentType: "image_card",

                content: {

                    image: "https://media0.giphy.com/media/3oEjI6SIIHBdRxXI40/giphy.gif?cid=3640f6095bf5990153692f462ed33eaa"

                }

            }],

            attachmentLayout: "list"

        }, chat.get_user());

Hello Randy,

Changing the contentType of the attachment to heroCard and setting the image path to its url option will allow you to render the attachment successfully:

https://dojo.telerik.com/ALaqOgez/2

    chat.renderAttachments({
        attachments: [{
            contentType: "heroCard",
            content: {
                images: [{
                    url: "https://media0.giphy.com/media/3oEjI6SIIHBdRxXI40/giphy.gif?cid=3640f6095bf5990153692f462ed33eaa",
                }]
            }
        }],
        attachmentLayout: "list"
    }, chat.getUser());

How to set it right to align?

[Peter Milchev]

Hi Randy, the attachments are currently not designed to reflect the user but to be rendered at the same position always. Nevertheless, after adding the attachments, you can add a CSS class to the last list item and set the align-self: flex-end and achieve the right-aligned appearance:
