MCPE-16384

Chat window is overlaying the HUD (Armor and Health)

Device - nVidia Shield k1

Myself and several members of my Realm have noticed that the chat is overlaying the HUD since we update our MCPE client from 15.3 to 15.4.
Please fix this bug and maybe, just maybe, playtest your update. This should not be happening with any update, it's something that could have been caught easily if you weren't rushing. As a Realms subscriber I am disappoint.

I am pretty sure that is how it is supposed to be now? i would have to look at that ;P

It's not supposed to be this way, and if it is by design that the chat blocks my ability to clearly see my health and armor then it is a poor design choice. But I can tell you with 100% certainty that this is a bug and NOT a design choice.

A mod (I think) has seen this. I didn't know you reported this so I reported this and I got a message that said I duplicated your report.

Can confirm this is still in 0.15.8. (iOS 10, iPhone 5s)

This is most certainly a bug, and a pretty bad one. Playing on PvP or minigame servers such as Mineplex PE are really tough because of this. I will need to see if this is in the 0.16.0 Beta or not.

Fixed in 1.0.3 if not before.
Please comment if it still happens to you

Looks like this was fixed in 1.0 build 2 (aka 0.17.0.2)

Not fixed anymore, though the bug has changed in behavior: too many chat messages cause the chat to overlap the position, puppet, armor and health (including extra hearts from absorption)

(effects also end up below scoreboard, but that is another bug)
