Google Chat Thread Switcher

Once installed on Google Chrome, it allows you to select and go threads (topics) in Google Chat.

Detailed explanation

Some Google Chat "Spaces" (used to be called "Chat Rooms") can have multiple threads, and some cannot. You can choose that when you create the Space. This extension adds a drop-down list to a Space with multiple threads, where you can pick a Thread and move it around.

To complicate things, Google has changed the term "Thread" to "Topic." Following suit, I have changed this extension to display "Topic." But I don't want to change the extension name, so it remains "Google Chat Thread Switcher."

Further complicating, Google has implemented an additional "inline thread" feature for spaces that do not have threads (or rather multi-topic). Please do not confuse them.

Usage

After installing this extension, when you open a space with threads in Chat, a drop-down list will appear in the upper right corner, and when you click on it, you will see a list of loaded thread titles. If you select a thread there, it will scroll to the input field for that thread.

In the drop-down list, the titles of unread threads will be displayed in bold.
