Description
Your use case
What would you like to do?
Safely select a recipient in the "Send to" view
Why would you like to do it?
I would like to share text or a image with someone using Element X.
How would you like to achieve it?
Being able to distinguish multiple entries with a similar display name e.g. using the Matrix ID
Have you considered any alternatives?
- Simply show the matrix id of every entry (easy fix)
- Show the Matrix ID only if entries are similar
- Allow viewing the chat by clicking an entry (i.e. selection only works through clicking the radio button icon)
- Works, because you can only select one recipient anyways: the overall UX could be reworked, instead of selecting someone and then clicking send:
- remove the radio buttons
- Instead of selecting a recipient, clicking on a recipient opens the chat of that entry in draft mode: the text is in the text box, ready to send; likewise images, you still could give the image a description (which isn't possible with the current UX); after entering a description, allow the user to see the chat history before requiring to send
- Allow the user to press "back" to abort and select a different entry
