GUI System

Version note

This page currently documents the GUI system as of v3.1.0. The GUI has changed in v3.2.0, and this page needs to be updated to reflect those changes.

Manage functions and aliases visually with Command Maker's built-in graphical interfaces.

New in 3.1.0

The brand-new Function Manager GUI replaces the old alias-delete screen. Open it with /cmd gui to browse, download, delete, and create functions — all from a chest-style inventory interface!

Function Manager GUI

The main GUI for managing all your functions. Open it with:

/cmd gui

This opens a 6-row chest inventory with three tabs:

Download Tab

Browse all downloadable functions from the online library. Each function appears as a paper item with its name. Functions you already have installed are automatically hidden.

  • Click any function to download it instantly
  • Functions come from the Function Catalog
  • Green items = available for download

My Functions Tab

View and manage your locally installed functions. Each function appears as a book item.

  • Left-click to run the function immediately
  • Right-click to delete the function
  • Blue items = currently installed

Create Tab

Create new function files from templates. Each template appears as a writable book.

  • Empty Function — Blank file with comment header
  • Command Template — Pre-filled with give/time/say/tp examples
  • Mob Spawner Template — Mob summoning and effect commands
  • Building Template — fill/setblock commands for structures

Navigation

  • Tab buttons at the top switch between Download/My Functions/Create
  • Refresh button (clock) reloads the function lists
  • Arrow buttons navigate between pages
  • Page counter shows current page and total items

Alias Management

For managing aliases, use:

/deletealias

This lists all aliases in chat with their commands. Use /cmd del <alias> to remove specific aliases, or /cmd add to create new ones.

Comparison: GUI vs Commands vs Files

Method Best For Ease
Function Manager GUI Browsing, downloading, creating functions Very Easy
Commands Adding simple aliases, running functions Easy
JSON Files Bulk editing aliases, complex setup Moderate
Function Files Writing multi-command sequences Moderate
