Letting Your Mods Help

One of Vision’s unique features is collaboration. You can grant your moderators permission to help manage the chat layer.
  1. Go to Permissions → Roles
  2. Use a prebuilt role or create a custom one. Make sure the role has the permission to view and edit overlays
  3. Click on users and invite your moderator

​
Styling

Vision allows styling all layers, including chat. You can change the font, color, background color, and in-/out-animations. Chat Layers also have the Chat-Designer, which allows you to completely customize how the messages appear on your stream.

​
Chat-Bot

Also look at our Chat-Bot feature, which allows you to create custom commands or timers that can interact with other Vision features.
