It would also be nice to have the ability to paste an actual image into the dialog, like is possible when posting a question or answer on the main sites. — Eric 56 mins ago

@Eric do you mean like when the message can also contain text, and not only the image?

Eric

@user1306322 No, I mean I can copy an image to my clipboard and paste it into the dialog.

user1306322

since when can we paste a copied image into questions and answers?

Eric

Since always?

user1306322

I can't do that :p

Eric

That's how I've always uploaded the screenshots. Windows snipping tool -> to clipboard -> paste into dialog.

user1306322

4:42 PM

browser?

Eric

Chrome.

user1306322

huh

do SE devs know about this?

Eric

I would assume so, since they programmed the dialog.

user1306322

which dialog?

Eric

The imgur upload dialog.

Not the one on imgur's site, of course, but the one embedded in SE pages.

user1306322

4:44 PM

and the link to the image is i.stack.imgur?

Eric

@ton.yeung QA. My suggestion is to implement it in chat dialog as well.

post a proposal

and also ask em to make it work in Firefox too :p

I could modify mine if you want

but we could have 2 proposals referencing each other as a single big improvement

Q: What happened to the Ring of Andvari?

I just finished watching all four seasons of Zero no Tsukaima, I don't know if I missed something, but I couldn't find an answer to this question. After the battle at Lagdorian Lake (at episode 9, season 1), Saito promised to give back the Ring of Andvari to the Holy Water Spirit in exchange f...

I think they're a bit different. Yeah, might be better to do two.

And probably on meta.SE.

user1306322

ah hell no I posted on Meta.SO

Eric

4:47 PM

I know you did. Not sure why :P

user1306322

it just shows up first when I type "meta" in my address bar :p

2 proposals on 2 metas, cross-reference = more visibility

and we can upvote both of them

Eric

Funny that I find this:

Q: Add an image directly from the clipboard

I've tried to find other questions covering this, but (surprisingly) I did not find any. When I want to add a screenshot to a post, as far I know the only way to do it is to save it as a file and then upload the file, using Stack Overflow's image hosting. OK, much better than finding a hosting s...

Q: How Can so many weapons from Saito's world exist in Halkeginia?

Saito went to Halkeginia from a portal that appeared in front of him in normal world: At the time of the summoning, he had just picked up his laptop after attempting to get it repaired in Akihabara. Walking home a portal of some kind opened in front of him; and Saito's curiosity getting t...

I love MySQL's status messages.

you can press room▼ and then Create new bookmark

in any room

and then you'll always have it in your chat profile page under Bookmarked conversations tab

that's the point of bookmarking

is it not working for you?

oh there's a bug with image posts − they don't show up in bookmarking mode

so?

some bounds are better than no bounds imo

yeah that was hard to figure out at first…

I guess bookmarking feature needs improvement

like maybe filter users that talk on unrelated topics

at least

specific messages would be even better, but… probably too much fuss for the devs

lol you could manually repost messages from other rooms by their links, but that's madness

and yet it's the only way to save a convo without off-topic messages…

I just know it's not hard to implement

you can request specific messages by their IDs in transcript or in chat, so there should not be any reason why you can't mark specific messages for bookmarked convos

you could post a request on meta

this chat needs to be better coz it can and with little work

I'll post it for you then :p

Q: Take selected parts of a conversation and bookmark it in Chat

Currently the "Bookmark a conversation" feature is great. It provides just what a user needs in a busy chat room; get in, get the important stuff from the bookmarks and get out. Though sometimes, these bookmarked conversations have a lot of extra stuffing in it. Chit Chat. Sometimes 100-300 mess...

Q: Chat room stars, personal vs. room

Update This just happened. I waltzed into the PHP room, and sure enough: If this isn't evidence that we need a room star creation reputation minimum, I don't know what is. Alternative While I believe functionality in this proposal would be optimal, it is perfectly understandable that such a...

yes, but what if I don't want anyone else to see them? :p

sleepy time picture!

what's the maximum length of a chat message?

I wonder if the bot app would explode if messages take up too much memory

Madara Uchiha

@JNat yeah, read it

JNat

@MadaraUchiha Sakura's gonna save the day, right?

Madara Uchiha

JNat

lol

you think he's gonna let Sasuke's blow hit him?

Madara Uchiha

Sakura might as well plant herself in the ground and start growing leaves.

She's about as useful as a cactus.

No, wait.

JNat

less

Madara Uchiha

8:30 PM

A cactus is defensive.

JNat

lol

my guess is she's gonna get in the way

Madara Uchiha

She's about as useful as that white stuff that sticks to the side of your mouth after you wake up.

stupid regex just won't accept the parentheses as capture group and instead ignores them completely, returning the whole expression

works absolutely fine on regex101.com but fails in visual studio

"<a href=\"https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?image_url=C\" rel=\"nofollow\">Google Reverse Image Search</a>"

new Regex(@"<a href=""(.*?)"" rel=""nofollow"">") should get https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?image_url=C but instead it returns <a href="https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?image_url=C" rel="nofollow">

with parentheses or without − it doesn't matter

of course I can replace the matching tags at the start and the end, but that's stupid

ok it's time to sleep

nights!

9:58 PM

@user1306322 Are you...are you trying to do regex in HTML?

user1306322

I'm trying to return chat-parsed messages to normal SE code

Frosteeze

because you know what they say about regex in html

4428

A: RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags

You can't parse [X]HTML with regex. Because HTML can't be parsed by regex. Regex is not a tool that can be used to correctly parse HTML. As I have answered in HTML-and-regex questions here so many times before, the use of regex will not allow you to consume HTML. Regular expressions are a tool th...

anyways good night user-senpai :3

user1306322

I don't even understand what this parsing of HTML means

I've seen this question many times before but I never found out what the problem is

in any case, I'm not trying to parse anything big, let alone with a possibility of it being malformed

this is SE chat we're talking about

messages are rather small

and if anything goes wrong − exception is always handled

by me

coz that's how I roll

peace!
