Ruler

Ruler is a lightweight, client-side selection and measurement tool for Minecraft 1.21.1 (Fabric). It lets you mark two positions in the world and instantly see a clean holographic 3D visualization of the selected area — along with all relevant measurements in a HUD overlay.

Inspired by WorldEdit CUI, but completely standalone. No server plugin or WorldEdit installation required.

How it works

Press R to activate the ruler (rebindable under Controls → Ruler).

• Left-click a block to set Pos1
• Right-click a block to set Pos2

That's it. The selection renders immediately.

Press R again to deactivate and clear the selection.

3D Visualization

The selection is rendered as a holographic wireframe box directly in the world:

• XYZ color-coded edges — X red, Y green, Z blue
• Subtle inner grid for spatial orientation
• Transparent block highlights at Pos1 (green) and Pos2 (red)
• Single positions are shown before the second is placed
• Clean, modern look — no chunky vanilla-style boxes

HUD Overlay

A small panel in the top-left corner shows:

Languages
