Toggling Dropped Item Outlines On and Off
Using the Default Keybind
When exploring or mining, you may not always want glowing outlines visible around every dropped item. You can switch the outlining system on or off instantly during gameplay using your keyboard.
1. While in-game, press O on your keyboard to toggle the highlight effect.
2. Drop any item from your inventory to test whether the effect is currently active. When active, a clear visible outline will appear around the dropped item entity on the ground.
3. Press O again whenever you want to hide the glowing outlines and return dropped items to their standard vanilla appearance.
Verifying Outline Visibility
If you drop an item and see no glowing border, check that the feature was not toggled off accidentally:
- Press O once while looking toward a dropped item to see if the glow appears.
- Ensure the item you dropped is not excluded by your custom item filter list, as filtered items will not display outlines even when highlighting is enabled globally.
- Use the toggle freely during busy activities to prevent visual clutter when large amounts of drops are scattered around your immediate area.
