\n return 10;
\n }<\/p>\n
@Override
\n public void render(GuiGraphicsExtractor guiGraphics, int mouseX, int mouseY, float partialTick) {
\n \/\/ just like render method in yarn
\n StringWidget stringWidget = getWidget(“widget id”, StringWidget.class); \/\/ will return null if its not StringWidget
\n }<\/p>\n
@Override
\n protected void createWidgets(Font font) {
