'''Text highlights''' are an accessibility option to help improve the readability of the chat box.

They can be used to keep track of newly-learned syndicate words as a [[Thief]], <s>stalk</s> monitor a suspect as [[Security]], or simply to mark callouts and other important events.

== Creating highlights ==
To create new highlights, press the Channel Filter Button located on the bottom right of the chat box. There, you can create highlights by typing them in the text edit, with each term on a new line, as shown in the placeholder text.

After you are done, press {{Button|Submit}} and the highlights will automatically be saved and remembered when the game is opened again.

{{Callout|Info|h=Notice!|Although highlights are saved and loaded with their original capitalization, the highlighting logic is '''case-insensitive'''.}}

== User-excluding tags ==
User-excluding tags can be used to stop the highlighting of your or another entity's name when not mentioned directly.

The <code>@</code> character is used to create a user-excluding tag, it needs to be placed directly before the target's name:

{| class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
!style="text-align:left;"|In-editor
!style="text-align:left;"|In-game
|-
| Urist || ''' Urist''' says, ''"Hello I'm '''Urist'''!"''
|-
| @Urist || '''Urist''' says, ''"Hello I'm '''Urist'''!"''
|}
''With ■ being the highlighted result.''

== Space-sensitive tags ==
Space-sensitive tags are often used for abbreviations of common words to reduce the possibility of overlaps.

The <code>"</code> character is used to create a space-sensitive tag, it needs to be placed before and after the target word:

{| class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
!style="text-align:left;"|In-editor
!style="text-align:left;"|In-game
|-
| Det || '''Urist''' says, ''"'''Det''' I need you to '''det'''ain him."''
|-
| "Det" || '''Urist''' says, ''"'''Det''' I need you to detain him."''
|}

== Auto-fill highlights and custom colors ==
If you are having trouble differentiating the highlights, you can choose a '''custom color''' for them in the Settings' Accessibility Tab.

You can also enable the '''auto-fill highlights''' option, a feature that automatically creates highlights based on the name and job title of the entity you are playing as.

While the option is turned on, the highlights will update every time the player controls a new entity (for example, when going from spectate to a ghost role).
