How to Hide IMVU Speech Bubbles

IMVU is a 3-D chat client that allows you to create your own avatar and chat with other users in an online environment. When people type, by default, speech bubbles appear floating above their heads, as well as in the chat box at the bottom of the screen. However, if you want to take screenshots or record video, the speech bubbles may get in the way of the picture. You can use a keyboard shortcut to toggle the speech bubble settings, which includes a hide setting to remove all bubbles from the screen.

Instructions

1. Launch the IMVU client on your computer.

2. Click the "Chat Rooms" button from the main menu.

3. Click the "Go" button to enter a chat room. You'll see other avatars in the 3-D chat room and see their speech bubbles.

4. Hold the "Ctrl" key on your keyboard and press the "B" key. This hides the IMVU speech bubbles during chat.

5. Press "Ctrl" and "B" again to toggle through the speech bubble settings. The first time you press the keys, IMVU displays all speech bubbles again. The second time you press the keys, IMVU displays only the last two speech bubbles per avatar. The third time turns the speech bubbles off again.
