Zulip displays typing notifications when viewing a direct message or
|
|
|
|
|
group direct message conversation to which one of the other
|

|
|
|
participants is currently composing a message. In the web and desktop apps,
|
|
|
|
|
typing notifications are also displayed in the
|
|
|
|
|
[all direct messages view](/help/direct-messages#access-all-dms).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Typing notifications are only sent while one is actively editing text in
|
|
|
|
|
the compose box. They disappear if typing is paused for several seconds,
|
|
|
|
|
if all the content of the message is erased, or if the message is
|
|
|
|
|
[saved as a draft](/help/view-and-edit-your-message-drafts#save-a-draft).
|
|
|
|
|
Just having the compose box open will not send a typing notification.
