HUD Manager
by i5wear
HUD Manager lets players arrange and configure the on-screen HUD elements of Minecraft from one layout, across the Fabric and NeoForge loaders.
What it does
The mod manages the vanilla HUD layer by layer. Its configurable elements include the action bar, boss bar, closed captions, crosshair, debug screen, hotbar, player list, scoreboard, screen title, status effects, toasts, messages and tooltips. For each element a player can set whether it is shown, multiply the vanilla GUI scale and alpha, and adjust the X and Y offset, which together let the whole layout be arranged to taste.
Server owners running crowded screens, such as the MCC Island network, can use it to keep important elements clear of others. The mod works alongside other HUD and tooltip additions, and its options can be opened through Mod Menu on either loader. Fabric API is required on both loaders, and Mod Menu is optional. Scoreboard Tweaks and Title Fixer are no longer needed once HUD Manager is installed.
Key features
Per-element visibility
Each HUD element can be shown or hidden on its own, from the action bar to the scoreboard.
Scale and alpha control
Vanilla GUI scale and alpha can be multiplied separately for each element to adjust its size and opacity.
Position offsets
Each element takes an X and Y offset, so it can be moved away from crowded parts of the screen.
Mod Menu integration
All options are reachable through Mod Menu when it is installed, instead of separate config files.
