Custom loading view

[jenniferlim]

Hi,

Is it possible to have a custom loading view while making an api call and waiting for the response. It'd be great if we can provide a custom view to MessageBuilderClosure when isTyping is True else showing the default MessageView.

Thanks for your help,

Jennifer.

An alternative solution: make the default MessageView exposed - if not by making it public, then by exposing a property like defaultMessageBuilderClosure, so that it can be coupled with .overlay or ZStack, or simply rendered conditionally.

The above use case could then be solved by reusing one of the Message.Statuses, which can be set for all message types, but do not seem to affect rendering at all for the messages from the 'other' chat participant.

Right now, the only two options seem to be to either use the default message view implementation, or to write the entire implementation from scratch, which is... not optimal.
