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==
<pre>{{overhead|text|colour=optional colour}}</pre>

;Additional parameters
<pre>{{overhead|text|colour=optional colour|bg=background colour|shadow=no|size=font size}}</pre>

===Example===
<pre>{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.}}</pre>
Produces: {{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.}}

<pre>{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red}}</pre>
Produces: {{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red}}

To change the font size, the parameter <code>size=<value></code> can be used:
<pre>{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red|size=15}}</pre>
Produces: {{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red|size=15}}

To remove the shadow, the parameter <code>shadow=no</code> can be used:
<pre>{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red|shadow=no}}</pre>
Produces: {{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|colour=red|shadow=no}}

To change background colour, use <code>bg=colour</code>. This is best combined with no shadow:
<pre>{{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|bg=#404040|shadow=no}}</pre>
Produces: {{overhead|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.|bg=#404040|shadow=no}}
