How to move new zone chat? (Pc Windows Steam)

chaz · June 2022

Hello, the new update, updated the overlay a bit, and the window for zone chat for me is in an odd place I like to slight move it, but clicking ENTER and using the mouse to try and grab it like before no longer works. What can I do to keep same look, but just move that box?

See image, bottom right said corner by my MAP.

Moving the chat window should still work in the same way it did before.

Have you tried disabling add-ons and then try moving the window?

Yes, I did. Thank you, but it does not work, I guess its part of the new UI. Accessability. See video.

Hi, now that you had a chance to see my video, 2 things,

1. Request to move thread maybe to tech support forums, and

2. Do you know with this new function offered will they build a way to manually move that chat box?

Thank you.

Thanks for posting the video. We are going to move this thread to the bug report section for now. I don't have any information at this time on whether the chat box functionality would be moved into accessibility.

I'm having the same issue

I wish they just move this text window from accessability from here to there to get it out of the way.

It is using the accessabiliy that locks that chat window in a very inconvenient spot. Please ask to move it down please, it is in the way.

Just to chime in here...who is that chat made for?! Because its obviously not for anyone using a controller on PC or for accessibility. Its the least accessible option and is an absolute pain to use with controller. Only benefit I can see about it is its ability to be turned off for more immersive options...but definitely far from accessible.

I spend a good amount of time teaching people how to disable that version of the chat because of all the complaints people have in zone chat when it "accidentally" gets enabled for them.
