The overlay can run in more than one mode, letting you choose how much information is shown and whether an item is required to see it.

Look mode (default)

The tooltip appears simply by looking at a target. No item is needed - just point your crosshair and read.

Held-item mode

You can switch to a mode where the tooltip only appears while you are holding a physical Probe item. This keeps the HUD clean until you actually want to inspect something, and makes the probe feel like a diagnostic tool you equip.

Creative Probe

The Creative Probe is an extended-detail tool. When held, it reveals deeper, technical readouts - useful for building, testing, and debugging setups - showing hidden values that the normal tooltip leaves out.
