How to use
This mod adds a Label printer which is an item that can set a label and an icon to a container.

Printing labels:
To use the Label Printer, right-click while holding it, and it'll open a menu where you can set your icon and label. Finally, have paper in your inventory and shift-right-click a chest or compatible container to set them.
Copying labels from existing ones:
When holding the Label Printer, shift-right-click to switch to Copy mode. Then shift-right-click on a container that has a label already set to copy its icon and text.
Commands
/labelposition
Sets the current player's HUD position. Available positions are:
center-right(default)center-leftlefttoptop-left
Examples:
- Set the current HUD position to
left:
/labelposition left
/setlabel
Requires admin permissions. Sets the label / icon of the selected container.
Examples:
- Setting the label of a block at x y z coordinates:
/setlabel x y z label I'm a dirt chest!
- Setting the icon of a block at x y z coordinates:
/setlabel x y z icon minecraft:dirt
/labelconfig
Requires admin permissions. Adds/removes blocks that can be labeled from the config.
NOTE: All blocks that have a Block Entity associated with them can be labeled.
To check if a block can be added to the config and used correctly try shift-right-clicking on it with the Label Printer item, and if it displays something like "You can't tag this block", that block can be added to the config
Examples:
- Add the Bell block to the config:
/labelconfig add-item minecraft:bell
- Add the Bell block to the config (while having the block in player's hand):
/labelconfig add-hand
- Remove the Bell block from the config:
/labelconfig remove-item minecraft:bell
- Remove the Bell block from the config (while having the block in player's hand):
/labelconfig remove-hand
