Display Poser
by LDEV
Display Poser lets a player place a block display in the world and then change its block, position, rotation and scale with commands, including after it has been created.
What it does
A block display is created with the createblockdisplay command, and it takes on the block the player is looking at. The editblockdisplay command then changes that display's block, position, rotation and scale, so an element can be adjusted without removing and placing it again. The attributes stay editable after the display exists.
The mod is a Fabric add-on that adds a graphical interface for block displays. It works in single-player worlds on Minecraft 1.21.7 and 1.21.10, and in multiplayer when Fabric and the mod are installed on both the client and the server. Builds cover 1.21.4 – 1.21.11, and the latest file is 1.12 for 1.21.11, published 2026-01-10. It is released under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source.
