## What is this?<\/p>\n
WorldEdit Selection Overlay is a **client-side visual addon** that shows your selection **exactly as it is** before you run any destructive commands.<\/p>\n
No more guessing shapes.
\nNo more wrong sizes.
\nNo more accidental `\/\/set air`.<\/p>\n
You see everything in advance.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
## Why you actually need this<\/p>\n
WorldEdit gives you power, but **almost no visual feedback**.<\/p>\n
This mod fixes that:<\/p>\n
* See the real shape of your selection
\n* Read dimensions directly in-game
\n* Inspect blocks before editing
\n* Isolate specific block types inside a selection
\n* Avoid mistakes that cost time<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
## In-Game Preview<\/p>\n
   <\/p>\n
The overlay renders your selection **directly in the world**:<\/p>\n
* Exact bounds
\n* Real geometry
\n* Clear corner points<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
## Built-in Dimension Ruler<\/p>\n
Measure selections like in CAD tools:<\/p>\n
* Clean readable size labels
\n* Always visible from your current angle
\n* Can follow your camera or stay fixed<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
## Inspect Before You Edit<\/p>\n
Open the block viewer and see exactly what is inside:<\/p>\n
* All blocks in the selection, including `air`
\n* Grouped and searchable
\n* Fast filtering with `#air`, `#fluid`, and `#solid`
\n* Chunk-aware loaded\/unloaded counts
\n* Fluid entries use bucket icons for easier reading<\/p>\n
Perfect before using:<\/p>\n
* `\/\/replace`
\n* `\/\/set`
\n* `\/\/stack`<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
## Block Isolation Mode<\/p>\n
Need to find only one material inside a huge selection?<\/p>\n
Select one or more block types in the block viewer. The mod hides every other block inside the selected WorldEdit region **on the client only**, leaving the real world untouched.<\/p>\n
Useful for:<\/p>\n
* Finding hidden ores, liquids, air pockets, containers, or mistakes
\n* Checking what a `\/\/replace` command will affect
\n* Inspecting complex builds layer by layer
\n* Viewing selected blocks with their normal textures<\/p>\n
Details:<\/p>\n
* Multiple block types can be selected at the same time
\n* Selected block groups stay pinned above the rest of the list
\n* A reset button clears the isolation selection quickly
\n* Fluids and fluid-like rendered content are hidden when they are not selected
\n* The selection boundary and ruler can stay visible while the internal grid is hidden
\n* Works even when the normal selection overlay visibility is disabled<\/p>\n
Everything is visual only. Hidden blocks still exist, still collide, and are never changed by the mod.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
* Real-time selection overlay
\n* Two render styles: **Blocky \/ Smooth**
\n* Adaptive performance for large selections
\n* Optional diagonals for cuboid shapes
\n* Built-in dimension ruler
\n* Block inspection screen
\n* Client-side block isolation mode
\n* Fluid-aware rendering and bucket icons
\n* Fully configurable UI<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
## Supported Selection Types<\/p>\n
* Cuboid
\n* Polygon 2D
\n* Ellipsoid \/ Sphere
\n* Cylinder
\n* Polyhedron \/ Convex<\/p>\n
Works with everything WorldEdit sends via CUI.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
## Controls<\/p>\n
| Key | Action |
\n| — | — |
\n| `O` | Open overlay settings |
\n| `B` | Open block inspection screen |<\/p>\n
All keybinds are configurable.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
## Compatibility<\/p>\n
* Singleplayer
\n* Fabric + WorldEdit
\n* Paper \/ Spigot \/ Purpur if WorldEdit CUI data is available
