Chroma text

Chroma is text whose colour flows through the rainbow — the same effect other Skyblock mods offer. Hex uses it in item names.

Two ways to switch it on

They do the same thing, at different granularity:

  • Chroma name in the item's editor — the whole name flows.
  • &z in the Name field — chroma starts at that point, so you can flow only part of a name. Any colour code, or &r, ends it.
&7Old &zHyperion

leaves the first word grey and flows the second.

&z is the same code NotEnoughUpdates and SkyHanni use, so a name copied from either works here unchanged.

Settings

Two settings on the Item Customization tab of /hexa config. Both apply to every chroma name at once — one item flowing at a different rate from the item beside it reads as a glitch rather than a choice.

Setting Range Effect
Chroma speed 0.5 – 20 seconds How long one full trip through the rainbow takes. Lower is faster.
Chroma width How many characters one full rainbow spans. Low: a short name holds every colour at once. High: the name drifts through one colour at a time.

Where it shows

The colours move on their own, so a chroma name animates wherever it appears: in a tooltip, on a container slot, and in the item-name popup above the hotbar.

It costs a little more to draw than a plain name, which is why it is off by default and set per item rather than applied to everything.
