Notch, Please!

by namekeptanonymous

Notch, Please! lets vanilla menus and screens use the area beside the camera notch on MacBooks with display notches when Minecraft runs in fullscreen.

FabricClient-side onlyGNU General Public License v3.0 or laterOpen source1.21.4 – 26.1.2

What it does

On MacBooks with a display notch, such as the M1 Pro and later models running macOS, the default fullscreen mode keeps the game out of the notched strip. The mod adjusts vanilla interface elements so they fit better around that cutout in fullscreen. Its author notes that this targets both the 1.21.4 build and the 26.1.2 build.

The mod needs Fabric API to load. Setup is handled in the game options: Fullscreen has to be enabled under Options, Video Settings, and the screen resolution set to 2560x1664, the notch-less 2560x1600 size plus the strip, so the game can use the full available space. The author suggests lowering the render scale to about Retina levels, which the notes say can improve performance with little visible loss of quality on a MacBook display.

Notch, Please! is client-side only, so only the player needs it and servers run without it. It is published for Fabric alone, for 11 release versions across 1.21.4 – 26.1.2, and the latest file is 1.0.1 for 26.1.2. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.

Key features

  1. Vanilla UI fitting

    Standard interface elements are repositioned so they clear the notched area when the game fills the screen.

  2. Fullscreen extension

    The game can extend into the space around the notch in fullscreen, once the resolution is set above the notch-less height.

  3. Resolution guidance

    The author notes recommend a 2560x1664 resolution and a reduced render scale for a MacBook display.

  4. Apple notch targeting

    The mod is aimed at Apple MacBooks with display notches, from the M1 Pro onward, running macOS.
