BeautifulButtons
by X_TyFighter
BeautifulButtons lets players recolor the buttons in Minecraft's menus, one hex color at a time, with a live preview before anything is applied.
What it does
Players who want a different look for the interface can set a custom color for the buttons in the game's menus. Once the mod is installed, the colour settings sit in the options menu under the button options. A hex code such as 2ECC71 gives an exact shade, and a row of twelve swatches covers the common choices, from the reds and blues through to greys and black. A preview updates instantly as the color changes.
Colors can be set for each button separately, so two buttons on the same screen may differ. Apply keeps the new colors, Reset returns every button to the default, and Cancel leaves the screen without saving. Environment is client-side only, so a server does not need the mod and players join without installing it. The mod is published for Fabric only, for 1.21.11 and 26.1.2, under All rights reserved; it is not open source.
Key features
Full hex color input
Any valid hex code can be entered, so the button color matches the exact shade the player wants.
Twelve preset swatches
Built-in presets cover red through black, so a color can be chosen with one click instead of typed in.
Live preview
A preview shows how the button will look before the change is committed.
Per-button colors
Each button can be customized on its own, so a single screen can use several different colors.
Reset and cancel
Reset restores the default colors in one click, and Cancel exits without saving any change.
