PixelPanel
by lmjma13
PixelPanel lets a player place and resize eight HUD elements anywhere on the screen, using a drag-and-drop editor opened with the H key.
What it does
Pressing H opens the HUD editor, where each overlay element can be selected, dragged, scaled from its corners and scrolled to adjust its style. The eight elements cover coordinates, FPS, compass, in-game time, held tool durability and armor durability, so a player can arrange the information shown on screen to suit their play style.
PixelPanel is a client-side mod for Fabric and requires Fabric API. Only the client needs it, so players can install it without any server-side change. It is published for Fabric across three release versions, 1.21.11 – 26.2, under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source, although its source code and issue tracker are public.
Files exist for 1.21.11, 26.1 and 26.2, with version 1.1.0 for 26.2 as the latest build, published on 2026-08-10. The first release came out on 2026-03-29, and the project has been updated since.
Key features
Drag-and-drop HUD editor
The editor opens with the H key and lets a player move each element to any position on the screen.
Resize and style controls
Elements can be grabbed by their corners to resize them, and scrolling adjusts their scale.
Coordinates and FPS
The coordinate display shows live X, Y and Z values, and the FPS counter colors its figure green, yellow or red by performance.
Compass and time
The compass draws a direction strip with cardinal and intercardinal headings, and the time element shows the in-game clock with sun and moon icons.
Durability displays
One element shows the held item with its durability bar and numbers, and another shows the four armor slots with a bar for each piece.

How it compares
Custom pvp hud is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21.11 – 26.1.2, released under the MIT License and not open source. Direction HUD covers 1.21.8 – 26.3 on Fabric, with the client required and the server optional, under All rights reserved. Item Durability HUD is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21.11 only, under the MIT License and not open source, so it shows durability alone, while PixelPanel places several elements at once.
