Beschreibung

Hello. As im in the process of switchting to Linux, i start using Caprine instead of official Messenger app as its not supported on linux.

On the official app, theres the feature to doubleclick anywhere in the horizontal line within the message to automatically mark reply.

For better understanding heres screenshot: image

In Green theres the area where you can doubleclick to mark message "test" as reply message. The Red area is where you cant aim to reply to messange "test", instead, it will reply to the picture message.

Im was using this feature day-to-day and id like to continue in it. Is there a possibility to add it e.g. via CSS or like custom enter?

Research-Richtung
The issue requests adding a double click reply feature similar to the official Messenger app. The relevant code likely resides in the message rendering components (e.g., MessageView or inline reply logic). There are two comments in the issue but no maintainer response or PRs yet. Investigate how replies are currently triggered (e.g., right click or hover actions) and extend the message click handler to support double click. Check the current event handling in components and any existing reply state management.
