Overlay Mode

The overlay provides an always-visible transcription window that stays on top of other applications.

Overview

The overlay is a floating window that shows your transcribed text in real-time. It's useful when you want to review text before inserting it, or when working with applications that don't support direct text insertion.

Using the Overlay

  1. Enable continuous mode in Settings
  2. Hold Ctrl+Alt+Space to start dictation
  3. Speak to see transcription appear in the overlay
  4. Release the hotkey to confirm and insert text
  5. Press Escape to discard

Overlay Features

  • Real-time transcription: See text as you speak
  • Edit before inserting: Review and confirm before pasting
  • Always on top: Stays visible above other windows

Customizing the Overlay

In Settings > Overlay:

  • Position: Drag the overlay or set coordinates

  • Opacity: Adjust transparency
  • Font size: Make text larger or smaller

Tips

  • Pin the overlay to a corner of your screen for quick reference
