Windowed GUIs

Windowed GUIs turns Minecraft's full-screen container menus into draggable, OS-style windows. Open a chest, a furnace, and your crafting table at the same time, drag them around the screen, resize them, and manage everything from a Windows-style taskbar at the bottom of the screen.

How it works: No more closing one GUI just to open another. Pin the windows you use most, minimize the ones you don't, merge related menus into tabbed groups, and keep your whole workflow on screen at once, keep multiple GUIs open at the same time.

✨ Features

  • Dragabble GUIs - Drag any container GUI freely around the screen!
  • Window Management - Minimize, pin,color, scale and close windows individually!
  • Taskbar - You can manage windows through a taskbar too!
  • Grouped Windows - Merge windows into tabbed groups & detach tabs back into their own windows!
  • Flexibility - Tweak the mod to your liking!

⚙️ Configuration

All settings live in config/windowed-guis/ and can be edited in-game from the gear icon on the taskbar. The folder holds:

  • client.json — client-side appearance and behavior options
  • server.json — server-side options such as the auto-close distance
  • windows.json — saved window positions, scales, and tab colors
  • blacklist.json — screens that should stay full-screen
  • previews/ — cached window previews

💡 Tip: edits made to the config file apply the next time you load a world.
