Preview
/dh hologram create spawn #ICON: NETHER_STAR /dh lines add spawn 1 &#FF7A59&lWELCOME TO &#FFD36B&lEMBERFALL /dh lines add spawn 1 &7Survival &8| &7Season 4 /dh lines add spawn 1 &r /dh lines add spawn 1 &fOnline: &a%server_online%&7/%server_max_players% /dh lines add spawn 1 &eType &6/kit starter &eto begin
Run these in game in order. /dh hologram create makes the first line, /dh lines add appends to page 1. Needs the dh.command.hologram and dh.command.lines permissions.
Lines, items and spacing
A hologram is a stack of floating lines. Text lines take & colour codes, &#RRGGBB hex and PlaceholderAPI placeholders. Item lines show a floating item. In DecentHolograms that is #ICON: MATERIAL, and the item spins like a dropped item.
DecentHolograms spaces text lines 0.3 blocks apart and icons 0.6 by default. If you change the height here, the commands add /dh lines height for each line and the file stores it per line.
Which export to use
DecentHolograms: run the commands in game, or save the file to plugins/DecentHolograms/holograms/ and run /dh reload. FancyHolograms uses text display entities and MiniMessage, so the tool converts your codes. Its text holograms hold text only, so item lines become separate item holograms that take the item in your hand.
Vanilla needs no plugin. Since 1.21.5 (and in 26.x) the text of a text display is written as an SNBT text component. From 1.20 to 1.21.4 it is a JSON string. Vanilla cannot show placeholders.
