Frequently asked questions

How do I turn off the block outline?
Press the B key (default keybind) while in your world to toggle the outline off. Press B again to turn it back on.
Can I change what key hides the outline?
Yes, open your game control settings and search for the Toggle Highlight Outline Box keybind, then assign it to any key you prefer.
Does this mod work in multiplayer?
This mod only affects your own client's visuals, so it works in multiplayer servers without needing to be installed on the server.
Will toggling outlines off affect my ability to place or break blocks?
No, hiding the outline is purely visual and does not change how you interact with blocks—you can still place and break them normally.
