You just place it where you want in your scene.

ok, thanks! 
How would I make an overlay fade in and fade out, like a title.
tysmm
I put this
Script
EXT. lOOPING JUNGLE PAN - NIGHT with JUNGLE VINES
@pause for a beat
@overlay JUNGLE VINEs_2 create
@overlay JUNGLE VINES_2 shifts to 100 100 in 0
@overlay JUNGLE VINES_2 scales to 1.0 1.0 in 0
@overlay JUNGLE VINES_2 opacity 1 in 0
And was given a warning that says “create should be specifed seperatly”
nevermind I fixed it
Okay Okay I’m back, tho I’ve made the duplicate overlay. it doesn’t show up on my phone. only the original does
I don’t think I did something incorrect, but for some reason my overlay doesn’t show up on the screen. I looked behind the other overlay that is in the scene, but it isn’t there either. But I can still move it around, it’s just not visible. Is there anyway to fix this?
Did you add the opacity command?
I’m having problems with the create overlay command. It says that the command doesn’t exist but I have made it work before. Here is my script:
if (FOOD is Eggs) {
@overlay EGGS AND BACON create
@overlay EGGS AND BACON shifts to 100 100 in zone 3 in 0
@overlay EGGS AND BACON scales to 1.0 1.0 in 0
@overlay EGGS AND BACON opacity 1 in 0 in 0
@CHARLOTTE walks to screen left and CHARLOTTE is idle_hold_drink
It’s the overlay name EGGS AND BACON . Overlay names cannot have the word “AND” or “THEN” in them because the system only recognizes those words as the “and” and “then” commands, so it thinks your trying to combine 2 different commands. You’re gonna have to reupload the overlay and change the name of it without using the word “AND”

Oh okay, that makes sense. Thank you very much!
How can u make some people stand in a TV overlay with a particular bg?
I have been trying to figure out how to rotate an overlay and can not for the life of me get it to work. I’ve read and reread your guide way too many times already and I’m still totally lost. I’m sure I’m just overlooking a stupid detail but, decided to ask before I drive myself insane. So, for example, if this is my overlay spot
@overlay 4957460768751616_MASCARA LEFT shifts to 188 139
@overlay 4957460768751616_MASCARA LEFT scales to 0.352 0.352
and I want to rotate it by 90 degrees, how would I go about doing so?
Sorry for asking a question about something you’ve already explained I just can’t wrap my head around it.
how can I remove a overlays that already in the background
