Show/hide all images/vids in chat option
Hello, everybody! I have a little idea for the Steam chat.
Here is my suggestion: a button, option or whatever to expand or collapse all videos, images and gifs from the chat. When i'm chatting with someone, I send and receive a lot of screenshots and videos that I usually collapse to have a clean chat. Sometimes I want to view again a video or image but I need to expand almost everything until I find it, or somethimes I want to collapse (hide) everything for a better reading after receiving a lot of images while AFK.
So... my sugestion is to add a little button, or maybe an option in the contextual menu (that one showing with the right click), to hide or show all multimedia in the chat.

This is not a "must-have", maybe doing something like this is a waste of developing time, but maybe it will be a nice addition.

(Sorry for my english)

Its already there dude.

X in the upper right corner makes it "video hidden".

NVM, misread.

Dang, you are totally right. It's just at 3 clicks away. Now I only want an option to show all hidden images/vids, but I think I'll stop hiding them. Thanks for the comment!

It would also be nice to have an option to show all again for when you already hid them manually but want them all to show again.

You're welcome!
