Chat Overlay
Apply a saved Chat Overlay theme preset. Future overlay theme packs will use this same picker.
action.change_theme · 2.8.0
Requirements and availability
A compatible saved chat overlay theme.
Picker contexts: automation, timer, command, pad.
Behavior
Apply a saved chat overlay preset; preset selection is a saved resource ID, not a CSS payload.
Configure in the app
Open: Do → Advanced Actions (commands only) → Add action
Steps
- Choose action category Change Theme, select Chat Overlay, and click Add action.
- Expand the action card. Configure the Fields below; check Editor defaults for your context and any operation-dependent fields.
- Choose resource values from real app pickers. Set output Platform separately from the trigger Where setting when the action offers it.
- Use Move action up / Move action down to position this action, then save the containing command, automation, timer or SheevPad button.
Limitations
- Picker availability does not supply missing event variables. Check prerequisites and originating provider.
- An action return value is not automatically a sequence variable. Only documented producers create template outputs.
