Overlay

checking

OBS never reloads a page on its own. If the overlay stops answering the settings above, it is running an older copy of itself and this is the fix, without touching OBS.

Screen space

No tab bar, no address bar. About 110 pixels back, which is the difference between this window sitting under the camera and sitting in the way of it.

Words on screen

Everyone watching sees this. The newest line always sits at the edge you pick, so the sentence being read never moves.

Readability

Background strength

Lines that stay readable

Everything older

The newest line from each person stays bright, so both sides of a conversation stay readable at once.

Clear by itself

Each line fades out this long after it was typed, so the screen empties itself between sentences. The transcript still keeps everything.

Effect

Tap to preview here. It goes live on the overlay at once.

You on screen

Your lines sit on the LEFT. Leave the name empty and nothing is shown above them.

Invite someone to type

They can type, and nothing else. They cannot move the words, resize them, change the effect, or invite anyone. Withdrawing disconnects them immediately, not on their next visit.

Your typing box

This one is yours alone. It changes nothing on the overlay, and it is remembered on this device only.

Canvas size

Match this to your canvas in OBS, then size the Browser Source to the same numbers at position 0, 0 — that is what makes it line up exactly. It also sets the shape of the preview above, so what you arrange here is what lands on the canvas.

The words take the same share of the frame at any size, so changing canvas will not resize your captions.

Transcript

Every line typed in this room is kept, by you and by anyone you invited, with the time it was sent. The screen only ever shows the last few. This is all of them.

It stays with the room until you delete it. If this was a session someone would not want written down, delete it when you are finished. Clearing the screen does not do that.

Overlay address for OBS

https://myturn.antglow.com/o/vSPqdgD0xlznh6YAK--j3X

Browser Source, 1920 by 1080, leave the Custom CSS exactly as it comes. This address can only display. It cannot type, so it is safe on screen during a share.
