# Item utils<\/p>\n
Item utils is a datapack by Gears that adds lots of small features to help display certain things in Minecraft survival without using cheats.<\/p>\n
How to use: You can access the main menu by reloading or running the command `\/trigger item_utils.main_menu`. This gives you a list of clickable buttons that will perform each of the different features. You can also trigger each feature manually.<\/p>\n
Current features: – Invisible item frames: Triggered by running `\/trigger item_utils.invisible_item_frame`. If you are holding an item frame (glow or normal), it will rename it to “Invisible” and when you place it down it will indeed be invisible.<\/p>\n – Text display: Triggered by running `\/trigger item_utils.text_display`. This will place a text display at your feet, the content of which is equal to the name of the item in your mainhand.<\/p>\n – Item display: Triggered by running `\/trigger item_utils.item_display`. This will take the item it your hand and place it in a floating item display entity.<\/p>\n – Remove display entity: Triggered by running `\/trigger item_utils.remove_display_entity`. This removes the closest display entity to you in case you messed up or just want to remove it. (It will drop items from item displays)<\/p>\n – Name styling: Triggered by running `\/trigger item_utils.style_name`. This will help you format the current item in your hand, either for text displays or other purposes. It has a variety of options including different colours, and formats such as *italics* and **bold**.<\/p>\n If you have any suggestions for this pack or found a bug, please let me know by joining my Discord server.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A variety of utility functions to spruce up your Minecraft survival world!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":86901,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"item-utils","_minecraft_project_id":"sitxwS5V","_minecraft_author":"GearsDatapacks","_minecraft_license":"GPL-3.0-or-later","_minecraft_downloads":187,"_minecraft_follows":5,"_minecraft_client_side":"optional","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"item-utils.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":40767,"_minecraft_version_count":3,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T21:01:19.095132Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2023-01-28T23:53:52.638780Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2024-07-15T19:08:53.147547Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/item-utils","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":86901,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-04T23:09:12+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"8ef628bf801c9b5f8fabc894d2d798a6","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[84],"mod_loader":[86],"minecraft_version":[49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,101,102,62],"class_list":["post-86900","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-datapack","mod_loader-datapack","minecraft_version-1-17","minecraft_version-1-17-1","minecraft_version-1-18","minecraft_version-1-18-1","minecraft_version-1-18-2","minecraft_version-1-19","minecraft_version-1-19-1","minecraft_version-1-19-2","minecraft_version-1-19-3","minecraft_version-1-20-5","minecraft_version-1-20-6","minecraft_version-1-21"],"yoast_head":"\n
