Display Entity Config
The Display Entity Config controls the in-game settings of a node’s display entity. Open it by right-clicking a node in the Outliner and choosing Display Entity Config. It’s available on:
- Groups that contain Cubes,
- Item Displays,
- Block Displays,
- Text Displays.
The dialog has two pages: General settings that never change, and Per-Variant settings that can be different for each Variant.

How Per-Variant Settings Apply
- Applying a Variant applies its settings to every node that has them, and runs their On-Apply functions.
- Nodes without settings for a Variant keep whatever they had before.
- Applying the Default Variant restores every node’s Default settings.
Copying Settings
The node’s context menu also has Copy Display Entity Config and Paste Display Entity Config. They copy the On-Summon Function and every per-Variant setting from one node to another.
