Advancements Arranged
by Seraphaestus
Advancements Arranged lets players rearrange the tiles on the advancements screen by dragging them, with optional snapping to a grid.
What it does
Advancement tiles can be moved freely inside the advancements window. A player drags a tile to a new position, and holding Shift while dragging snaps it to a grid. Positions and fancy backgrounds are saved per instance in a minecraft/advancements arranged.json file, which can also be copied to share a layout. An Edit Mode toggled in the config controls when rearranging is allowed, and changes made while the advancements screen is still open are not saved if that mode is disabled.
The window itself can be resized. It is drawn from the vanilla advancements window texture using 9-slice scaling, and the slice margin can be set in the config. Fixed-order tab sorting is available for vanilla advancement tabs, and fancy backgrounds with random tiling variation can be applied to the screen. The mod is published for NeoForge only, and the environment is client-side only, so servers do not need it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source.

Resizable window
The advancements window can be resized, with its frame scaled from the vanilla texture and a configurable slice margin.
