Is it possible to change the wide of the Talking to Area? See screenshot attached
It's actually pretty easy, the width of the text area is controlled by the CSS file IM.css
if you do a search for #im-console-msgs {, the second line should read 'width: xxxpx;' (I forget what the default is; I believe 100)
If you change that to ready 'width: 100%;' it will scale to the size of it's container.
I also recommend adding this ....
#imWindow .form-text { width: 100%; }
which will make it so the form text field will scale in width as well.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for answering the question @RangerRaza ! And also for the CSS hint for form.text ;-) Very nice.
