In the video “0158 Incorporating Real-Time Messages into Threads,” the presenter illustrates the process of integrating live messages, including images, into a conversation within an application. Initially, they detail the procedure for storing the uploaded image by identifying its upload location in Xcode and integrating it into the message without accompanying text. Subsequently, they introduce the inclusion of the expert’s final response as a system message. Following rigorous testing, both the image and message are successfully incorporated into the conversation. While the presenter suggests potential improvements such as facilitating text copying and pasting, the primary objective of integrating live messages with images has been accomplished.

In the video “0161 Improving the thread User Interface part 1,” the speaker outlines their plans to upgrade the UI for thread details, switching from a scroll view to a UI table view to enable direct text copying from answers. The audience is taken through the process of removing the scroll view and adding a UI table view in Xcode, as well as creating prototype cells for text and image messages, and implementing a copy-to-clipboard button. The speaker also discusses customizing the font size, number of lines, and button icon. The video then demonstrates creating table view cells for both text message and image message formats, adjusting cell sizes, and adding a copy button, while also modifying the button order and icon. Constraints are added to position elements correctly, and the text message cell’s name label is temporarily replaced with a dash. The next lecture will focus on coding these table view cells.

In the “0162 Enhancing the Thread UI: Coding Prototype Cells” video, the presenter illustrates the process of creating and programming prototype cells for text and image messages within Xcode. They initiate new Swift files titled “TextMessageCell” and “ImageMessageCell,” respectively, and import UI kit. Within each file, a UI table view cell class is generated, featuring outlets for message labels, copy buttons, and image views, alongside actions for copy button taps and regenerate button taps. The presenter establishes connections between the prototype cells and the main file, setting their types as “TextMessageCell” and “ImageMessageCell.” Within the message cell, the copy button is linked to the message label’s button, facilitating the copy action upon button touch. For the image cell, the regenerate button is associated with its corresponding action, and the image view is referenced as an outlet. Additionally, reuse identifiers are configured for both text and image message cells, followed by a project build to ensure error-free execution.
