When your chat is moving fast, it’s easy to lose track of which comments you’ve already shown on screen.

Now, comments you’ve shown on stage are clearly marked, so you can instantly see what’s been covered and pick up right where you left off.

When you hide a comment from the stage, it will appear faded in the Comments section, making it easier to see where you left off and avoid showing the same comment twice.

Here’s how it works:

• While streaming, open your Comments section
• Show a comment on stage
• Hide the comment from the stage
• The comment will appear faded, so you know it’s already been shown

Stay on top of even the busiest chats, and keep your stream flowing smoothly.
