Tags and Placeholders

Tags can be used to dynamically insert information into a hologram based on the player viewing it. They can also be utilised on ANY type of hologram.

HoloAPI will detect if any of these tags are found in a holographic display and update it accordingly.

%name%	Inserts the observer's name into the hologram
%time%	Inserts the current system time into the hologram. Timezone offsets can be specified in the HoloAPI configuration file}
%mctime%	Inserts the current Minecraft world time
%date:format%	Inserts the date into the hologram, where format is a SimpleDateFormat string. e.g. `%date:hh:mm a z%

&s	Acts like a ChatColor format. Text following this tag will change colour at a configurable rate. See this page for more information on configuring this option.

Special characters can also be automatically placed into holograms by specifying certain short-codes. Information on this can be found here.

MultiColour ChatColor Format

HoloAPI also adds a new ChatColor format to easily create an colourful animation of text in any hologram. Add &s to any part of a hologram and HoloAPI will do the rest!
