The overhead template can be used to display chat and dialogue text the way it would appear above players and NPCs. The internal Jagex functions that generate this type of text are "say" and "npcsay". For game messages, use Template:Mes.
Usage
{{overhead|text|colour=optional colour}}
- Additional parameters
{{overhead|text|colour=optional colour|bg=background colour|shadow=no|size=font size}}
Example
{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.}}
Produces: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red}}
Produces: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
To change the font size, the parameter size=<value>
can be used:
{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red|size=15}}
Produces: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
To remove the shadow, the parameter shadow=no
can be used:
{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red|shadow=no}}
