SharedCursor - userDependentItems

[Former Community Member]

Me again

I have a SharedCursor CollectionNode with a SharedCursor node on which I have userDependentItems to true.

But the items doesn't get retracted until the everybody has left the room (because sessionDependItems is also true).

Hi ,

Can you test this scenario ? Set UserDependant to true . Get two users in SharedCursor and let both of them publish some messages ( via moving cursors) and let one person leave. Then please look at the dev console log and tell us if the item for the user left is still there or retracted. If not, send us a small test code. We will look into it.

Thanks

Already did that test. And looking at the Room console the item doesn't get retracted. It stays until everyone has left the Room.

I will try to make a small example and send you - thanks

Hi,

SessionDependantItems by default is false , and we are not changing it in the SharedCursor's nodeConfiguration. Are you manually setting sessionDependantItems to true ? I will take a look at the chat problem.

Thanks

Yes. I have set sessionDependentItems to true manually.

Of course that would be unneccesary If userDependentItems work the way I think it should

[Former Community Member · Accepted solution]

You shouldn't need to manually set anything there - userDependentItems

should (and in my experience, does), retract the cursors as users leave. Are

you by any chance still seeing these users in the room itself in the

"manage" tab of the console? This is the first I've heard of this problem,

and we've been doing this for a while.

Thanks for any help,

I'm sorry. I think I'm confusing myself with all these different questions I have.

I do not have sessionDependentItems to true. And looking at the console the item gets retracted.

And it seems to be working now - so thank you. Don' t know what happened before.
