The editor
/novaui editor opens the home screen: Edit a UI, Create a UI or Open a UI (preview / play).
Every change is live for everyone and saved to the page file.
| Input | What it does |
|---|---|
| Move the mouse | moves the cursor (it turns into a hand over buttons) |
| Left click | click. Click an element to select it, click it again to pick it up, click to drop it |
| Right click | context menu on an element; cancels a drag; closes a popup |
| Scroll wheel | scroll lists; over a number field it changes the number (sneak = 10x) |
| W A S D | nudge the selected element 1 px (sprint = 10 px) |
| Q | close a popup / cancel a drag |
| F or Ctrl+F | undo (set Minecraft’s “Swap Item With Offhand” key to Z for a real Ctrl+Z) |
| Shift+F | redo (Shift+Z with the Z binding) |
- Typing (texts, names, colours) opens a small dialog box.
- The top bar has File / Edit / Selection / Layer / Window menus, undo, redo and Save.
- The left column has the tools: select, add box / text / image / head / progress bar, fill colour, eyedropper, align, zoom (50% / 100%) and the animation timeline.
- On the right: Properties, Design and Layers (show/hide, select, order).
- Window > Screen matches a 16:10, 21:9 or 4:3 monitor; Window > Cursor speed changes how fast the cursor
moves (also
editor.cursor-speedinconfig.yml). - While editing you are frozen in place, invulnerable, and your inventory is put away. Leaving (File > Exit,
/novaui exit, logging out, even a server crash) gives everything back.
