Bug description

When scrolling in a chat, a small bubble appears that shows the date when the currently visible messages have been written. However, the one that appears when scrolling has a smaller height and I think also the font is a bit smaller than the ones that are fixed between message bubbles.

Steps to reproduce

• Enter Chat
• Scroll
• Try to align the 'hovering' date-bubble with a bubble that just appears between messages

Actual result: Hover-bubble is not as big as the inline, and the font is smaller
Expected result: Both have the same height and font size
