HUD and Fishing Button
Avid Angler can show a movable fishing control while Casting is enabled. The control can be shown as a HUD or as a compact button.
| HUD | Button |
|---|---|
 |
 |
| Mode | What it is for |
|---|---|
| HUD | Recommended. Shows the next fishing action with an icon and short status text, so it is easier to understand at a glance. |
| Button | A smaller icon-only control for players who want less screen space used. |
The visible control can show states such as casting readiness, bobber interact, combat pause, dead/unavailable, protected content, sleeping, hidden, or waiting for water-toy behavior.
Both the HUD and Button can be repositioned with the mouse. Left-drag the control to move it; Avid Angler saves the new position automatically when you release the mouse button.
The control is clamped to the screen so it cannot be dragged completely off-screen.
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Sleep | Temporarily pauses or resumes the visible fishing control. |
| Hide / close | Hides the visible control until Show control is clicked or the launcher toggles it back on. |
| Show control | Shows the fishing control again if it has been hidden. |
Right-clicking the visible control sleeps or wakes it.
The minimap button and Addon Compartment entry can also control visibility:
| Click | Result |
|---|---|
| Left-click | Opens the main Avid Angler window |
| Right-click | Hides or shows the visible fishing control |
Right-click toggling is blocked in combat.
