Text Message

Updated on Sep 29, 2026

The TextMessage is intended to be used for sending a simple string type message. Its constructor accepts the following parameters.

• String text
• Author author
• String status: when having a status defined, the creationDate needs to be set as well.
• DateTime creationDate: the creationDate parameter can be set optionally.

Defining a TextMessage

C#

var textMessage = new TextMessage(this.currentAuthor, "Some text message", "sent", DateTime.Now);
textMessage.InlineViewModel.StatusVisibility = Visibility.Visible;

this.chat.AddMessage(textMessage);
