Chat Context Menu ChangeLog

2.1.0

• Add ChatSelectableText widget — a fully custom selectable text widget built from the ground up
  • Uses RichText for rendering, TextPainter for selection geometry, OverlayEntry for handles/menu, CompositedTransformFollower for positioning
  • Text selection with draggable handles (base & extent) for adjustable selection range
  • Customizable selection highlight color (selectionColor) and handle color (handleColor)
  • Context menu with arrow indicator, smart positioning with pointer-position fallback for long text
  • selectAllOnActivate property — when true (default), selects all text on activation; when false, selects the tapped word
  • selectAll callback provided in menuBuilder for programmatic select-all from the menu
  • Auto-scroll when dragging handles near viewport edges (autoScrollEdgeExtent, autoScrollSpeed)
  • Haptic feedback on selection activation (enableHapticFeedback)
  • Handle visibility — handles are automatically hidden when scrolled outside the viewport
  • Menu-only animation (text and selection appear immediately, only the menu panel animates)
  • Customizable menu appearance: menuBackgroundColor, menuBorderRadius, menuPadding, menuShadows
  • Customizable arrow: arrowHeight, arrowWidth, spacing, horizontalMargin
  • onSelectionChanged callback provides the currently selected text
  • onMenuClosed callback triggered when the menu is dismissed
  • Custom transitionsBuilder for menu animation
