Cinematic Hotbar
by 0xA00
Cinematic Hotbar changes how the hotbar behaves on screen, hiding it while the mouse is not used and fading it out in a smoother way.
What it does
The hotbar hides when the mouse is not used, so the view stays free of HUD elements during play. Its fade-out animation was reworked to be cleaner, and the timing of the fade can be changed from the config menu, which opens with V from the default mod menu page. The mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it. It is built for Fabric and targets 1.19.4 alone, with the latest file 1.2.1 for 1.19.4 dated 2023-10-22.

What the author says
This mod is very simple, it make it possible to disable hud without the hands when you are not hurt or if you don't click on your mouse for 5 seconds. Whenever you do one of those it will make that the hud appear again. F1 part of the mod is heavily inspired by the Better F1 mod by UltimateBoomer!
