Overlay collections

Keep several complete setups of alerts and overlay looks, switch between them, and share or install them as .overlaytrigglow packs.

Open in Trigglow

A collection is a complete setup: your alerts plus the look of the Chat, Activity, Goals, Credits, Emotes, Quests, Giveaway, Loyalty and Music overlays and your default style. One collection is active and OBS always shows it, so your Browser Source links never change when you switch.
Overlays → Collections (/app/collections) lists them. New collection starts with the default look and no alerts; Duplicate copies the look and the alerts; Rename and Delete do what they say, and you cannot delete the active one. Activate asks you to confirm, and what you have now stays saved in the collection you leave, so switching back restores it. How many collections you can keep depends on your plan (see Pricing).
Export pack downloads a .overlaytrigglow file with the overlays and alerts you choose, with your images, sounds, videos and animations inside. Import pack shows a preview (name, author, version, alerts, files and whether Trigglow's signature is intact) and puts it into a new collection or over an existing one, with an option to make a copy first. A pack replaces only what it contains.
Packs bought from a creator's store install from the purchase page with Install in Trigglow; installing again brings the latest version. A pack bought outside Trigglow comes with a licence code that you enter in Redeem a code (/app/redeem), then install from the list on the same page.

Steps

  1. 1
    Open Overlays → Collections (/app/collections).
  2. 2
    Click Duplicate on your active collection to try a new look without losing the current one.
  3. 3
    Activate the copy and confirm, then edit its alerts on Triggers and its overlays on each overlay's page.
  4. 4
    To share it, click Export pack, choose what goes in and click Download pack.
  5. 5
    To bring a pack in, click Import pack, choose the file, pick a new collection or one to replace, and click Import.
Note
Channel-point rewards and chosen TTS voices are tied to your account, so they are not exported. Alerts for channel points arrive switched off until you pick one of your rewards.
Warning
Only import packs from people you trust. Import shows a warning when a file was changed after export or has no Trigglow signature. Files in an imported pack go through the same checks as any upload.
Note
A bought pack cannot be exported. If the purchase is refunded, its collection is blocked: it stays in your account but cannot be activated.
Note
With Trigglow Studio installed, double-clicking a .overlaytrigglow file opens the import on this page. Redeem a code only appears in the sidebar when pack licence codes are open on Trigglow.
