About this Mod

Button Animations

Button Animations is a lightweight client-side mod that improves how Minecraft buttons feel.

Instead of the default hover outline, buttons smoothly scale up when hovered and ease back down when clicked, creating a cleaner and more responsive UI. The result is subtle, satisfying feedback that makes menus feel more polished without changing their layout or functionality.

Features

  • Removes the default button hover outline
  • Adds a smooth hover grow animation
  • Adds a soft click press-and-bounce effect
  • Has a config screen
  • Works across Minecraft's standard button-based menus
  • Client-side only

Why use it?

Minecraft's default buttons are functional, but a little stiff. Button Animations keeps the vanilla look while making interaction feel more modern and tactile. It is designed to be noticeable without being distracting.

Compatibility

This mod does not need to be installed on the server.

Notes

Button Animations focuses only on button interaction and visual feedback. It does not add new menus, settings, or gameplay changes. The default keybind for the config is "B".
