    Default Feedback: Reply to private message via notification feature.

    I love the new notification feature, especially for messages. It allows me to go AFK and still catch all messages.



    However, I noticed that if you 'Reply' from the notification feature, the "/r (name)" command is already highlighted and any letter would pretty much delete and replace it with the letter.





    Don't get me wrong, I love that new feature as well; when the keyboard automatically highlights the selected text for easy retyping (CS for example).

    But is it possible that when you reply via the notification feature, you can immediately start typing? Eg, "/r (name) (what you type starts here)" instead of the entire "/r (name)" being highlighted?



    I hope I'm understood, can't get photos in yet now but will do when I get home.

    Nothing related to any players or drug references because they already got me into trouble

    Yeah, that's how you get rid of it, but is it possible that this wouldn't be needed? I know, for my case at least, it'd save time especially if in a dungeon or such. Or is this an iOS thing and is only changeable through the device hardware or client?

    Not a big deal, just a small convenience.

    Added photos to OP.

    I think a developer already brought this up in a thread. They said that they would fix this small issue in the next client update.

    I'll try and look around and see where this was said.

    EDIT: Saw your post after mine. Just editing for others to see and if you didn't happen to find the original message.

    Workaround: Tap Reply, then tap once to the right of the highlighted text to remove the highlighting. Then type your reply and send.

    This will be fixed in the next full client update.
    It's in the thread "Patch Notes 1.0.2 Content Update (69085)," as one of the comments.

    I love the new feature as well. I go afk a lot lol. I use an actual Logitech wireless keyboard via Usb on my tab. All I have to do is hit the Right Arrow & I'm ready to reply.
