Hello guys, I’ve been delving back into Convai plugin again. Previously, I remember there was a built-in mechanism where the actual SB\_Main chat appears only as you’re nearing or facing the ConvaiBaseCharacter we added in the scene, then it disappears when you face away [with a fluid fade in and out animation]. How can I get that feature back, please? I do not wish to continue seeing the dialogue box as I move around and interact with the rest of the 3D scene, it clashes with my existing UI widgets. Can you please help me here or guide me to a video or a thread if this has already been addressed in the past? Much appreciated. [I’m working with UE5]

To change the visibility to the chat widget, go to your player blueprint and apply the following blueprints.

So you can control it with different events. I used beginplay as an example.

Awesome - thank you so much for your prompt response. I’ll go ahead and try that and will let you know if I face any issues.
