Switch to Precision Mode for Detailed Work
Enabling Precision Mode
When you need to break individual blocks without affecting surrounding blocks, use Precision Mode.
Steps:
1. Hold SHIFT (Sneak) while holding your hammer
2. Left-click on a block
3. Only that single block will break (1×1 mode)
4. Release SHIFT to return to 3×3 mode
When to Use Precision Mode
Switch to Precision Mode for:
- Placing or removing blocks in tight spaces
- Detailed construction and building work
- Mining specific ores without destroying nearby blocks
- Avoiding accidental destruction of structures
- Working near valuable blocks or decorations
Precision Mode is essential when working on detailed projects where the 3×3 area would cause unwanted damage. It's also useful when mining near water, lava, or other hazards where you need exact control.
