Coordinate HUD
by pfyya
Coordinate HUD draws a customizable coordinate display on screen, positioned by drag and drop and styled with colors, borders and layout options.
What it does
Coordinate HUD shows the player's coordinates as an on-screen overlay that can be placed anywhere in the window. A drag-and-drop editor with grid snapping and preset guides lets the position be set visually, and nine position presets cover the top, middle and bottom edges with left, center and right alignment. The display can also serve as a cleaner alternative to the F3 debug screen, showing only the lines the player chooses.
Text can be bold, italic, shadowed or outlined, in custom colors. Rainbow mode cycles colors at an adjustable speed, gradient mode shifts color smoothly across the lines, and dynamic colors change with the Y level, biome or dimension. Background borders accept opacity, padding and corner radius, and lines can be arranged horizontally or vertically with adjustable spacing and alignment. Everything is configured through an in-game GUI.
The mod runs on the client alone, so only the player installs it and servers need nothing. It is published for Fabric and the 1.21.8 game version, with the 1.0.0 file dated 2025-10-26, and it is released under the MIT License, though the project is not open source. It has no required dependencies beyond the loader.
