Editing Lines

Each hologram line has a variety of properties that can be customized. These commands let you fine-tune the appearance and behavior of individual lines.

All edit commands follow the pattern:
/hologram line edit <hologram> <line> <property> <value>

Text lines support line breaks using the <br> and <newline> tags.

Prepend Text

Prepends text to the beginning of a line.
Usage: /hologram line edit <hologram> <line> prepend <text>

Examples:

If changing the background color has no visible effect, make sure default-background is set to false.
The default background overrides any custom background color.

Images in Text Lines

Text lines support rendering images using the <image> tag.
The image is resolved from a file path or URL and rendered as colored block characters.

Usage: <image:'source'> or <image:'source':'height'>

The source can be a local file path or a URL (http:// / https://).
The height parameter controls how many lines tall the image is rendered (defaults to 8).

Images are cached for 30 minutes after first load.

Examples:

# Display an image from a URL
/hologram line edit my-hologram 1 set text <image:'https://example.com/logo.png'>

# Display an image from a local file
/hologram line edit my-hologram 1 set text <image:'/path/to/image.png'>

# Display an image with a custom height of 16 lines
/hologram line edit my-hologram 1 set text <image:'https://example.com/logo.png':'16'>

The image tag can be combined with other text and MiniMessage tags in the same line.
