Our users are experiencing issues with page components being blocked due to the fixed position of the Intercom chat icon. Could we make the chat icon draggable so users can reposition it as needed?

Hi
Jennifer here from Intercom
You can set up a draggable launcher to move around the screen by using a Custom Launcher attached to an HTML element:
1. Pass the ID of the element you're using as a custom launcher to open the Messenger (e.g., "#my_custom_link"). Or you can specify multiple links by passing a class instead (e.g., ".my_custom_class_name").
2. Add the ID or class to the HTML element that you want the Messenger to open when clicked. For example, if you want the Messenger to open if someone clicks a link to your support email address:
`Support` mailto:HELP@YOUR-APP.COM
3. Add this line to your IntercomSettings snippet:
`<br> custom_launcher_selector:'#my_custom_link'<br>`
Here's an example of what it should look like:
`<br> window.intercomSettings = {<br> app_id: "YOUR_APP_ID",<br> custom_launcher_selector:'#my_custom_link'<br> };<br>`
Important: You can choose to disable the standard launcher so that only your custom launcher appears.
