Chat Types & Chat Window Settings
When you take a look at your default chat windows, you will likely see messages in different colors. Every distinct color is a different type of chat, each with their unique purpose and functionality. To the left of the message the type of chat will be displayed. In the example below, you can see all the displayed messages are from the system. These notify you when you obtain an item, for example.
If you press the cogwheel icon in the chat window, visible once you hover over it with your cursor, you can access and change the chat window settings. There, you can set the transparency of the chat window, what chat types are visible on the window, adjust the messages' font size, and more.
If you press the [+] button to the right side of the chat name, you can create & separate a new chat window.
