How to disable chat previews?

I've disabled message previews (Settings > Team Chat > Show message preview) but I keep seeing bubbles with the messages just above the chat button.

 

How to disable this completely? I'm fine seeing the unread message count but do not want to be distracted by messages all the time.

Hi @gtirloni 

The setting you mentioned only affect Team Chat, the out-of-meeting chat, whereas you are wanting to disable the in-meeting chat notifications. 

While in a meeting, you can click the ^ option next to the chat button and disable message previews.

Not sure when exactly this option was added, but you should see if it you've updated the client recently. This seems to be persistent between meetings, so once its set, it should remain that way on that device until changed or reinstalled. 

 

Hope that helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.

Hi 
Is there any chance to hide a pictures preview in a chat ? I host a big meeting but always some of participants send some nasty pictures in a general chat -
I dont want to see any preview of the pictures on the chat is that possible ?

Thanks for the reply Bort!

This disables the Chat Previews for the client, however is there an admin option to disable Chat Previews for all the participants inside the meeting?
