Glypher
by LmVictor20
Glypher is a Fabric mod that runs only on the client and lines up custom title glyphs inside actual vanilla menus such as chests, anvils, beacons, furnaces and hoppers.
What it does
Rather than estimating offsets by editing a JSON file, a player previews the real menu in Glypher, selects the vanilla inventory or menu type, and drags the title into the right spot. The X and Y values can be adjusted by hand, and a result that looks correct is saved to a small export file that can be read later to see which value goes where.
Glypher expects the title glyph to already exist in an active resource pack. The glyph is typed into an input field, and the mod works from the glyph taken from the generated default.json, its texture path, placeholder name and image file name. It does not invent a glyph. The tool lines up a glyph that is already part of the pack, and it only affects how the finished title string gets written out, leaving the plugin configuration unchanged.
Glypher supports three output modes. One writes the title in the syntax used by the Nexo and Oraxen plugins. Another gives the offset details so a player can understand the structure the plugin needs, and the plugin stays responsible for the real rendering. The mod is built for Minecraft 1.21.3 and the current 1.21.4 release, and it runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it.
Key features
Live menu preview
The title is shown inside the real vanilla GUI, so the alignment can be checked where it will appear.
Menu type selection
A vanilla inventory or menu type is chosen before previewing, covering chests, anvils, beacons, furnaces, hoppers and smithing tables.
Offset adjustment
X and Y values are changed directly on the preview, replacing trial and error with edits to a JSON file.
Readable export
The saved result is a small file that shows which values belong to which part of the title setup.
