Chat Resizer

A client-side mod to resize, reposition, and customize your Minecraft chat.

Chat Resizer gives you full control over the in-game chat interface. Adjust scale, position, opacity, and background settings with instant real-time previews.

Features

Scaling Control

  • Uniform Scale: Adjust overall chat size while preserving the original aspect ratio.
  • X / Y Scale: Stretch or compress horizontal width and vertical height independently.
  • Range: Adjust all scales anywhere from 0% to 200%.

Positioning

  • X Offset: Shift chat left or right (±300px).
  • Y Offset: Shift chat up or down (±300px).

Appearance & Input

  • Background Control: Toggle the chat background panel on or off, or adjust transparency from 0% to 100%.
  • Typing Bar Support: The chat input box (<kbd>T</kbd>) automatically resizes to match your custom chat width.
  • Live Preview: See layout changes instantly in the background while adjusting settings.

Config Screen

Features a two-column config menu with a semi-transparent overlay, letting you see the game in real time while tuning sliders. Includes standard Reset (vanilla defaults), Done (save), and Cancel options.

Highlights

  • Client-Side Only: Works on any server without requiring server-side installation.
  • Lightweight: Uses minimal mixins with zero impact on frame rates.
  • Multi-Loader: Supports Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge standalone with no required dependencies.

How to Use

  1. Install the mod for your preferred loader.

  4. Adjust sliders to your preferred layout and press Done to save.
Tip: Set Scale to 45% and Y Offset to 120px for a compact chat window that sits right above the hotbar.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I access the config in fabric?
You need to get a mod menu installed than access the config of the mod.

Q: Does the server need this mod installed?
No. It is 100% client-side and works on any vanilla server, Realm, or modded server.

Q: Can I put this in my modpack?
Yes. You are free to include Chat Resizer in any public or private modpack on Modrinth, CurseForge, or other launcher platforms.

Q: Does this work with other chat mods?
Yes. Chat Resizer only modifies the scale, position, and background container of the chat overlay. It works alongside formatting, timestamp, and chat history mods.
