TWAILA
A Terraria mod that displays the name, mod, and texture of the tile you are looking at in the world
For those who don't know WAILA is a Minecraft mod by ProfMobius which stands for What Am I Looking At and is a fantastic quality of life that tells you information about the blocks you put your cursor on. This mod attempts to replicate this functionality for Terraria by providing a panel at the top of the screen that updates when you put you cursor on different tiles. Works for vanilla and modded tiles.

1.4.4 Release: v0.4.0.4
1.4 Release: v0.3.0.0
1.3 Release: v0.4.0.0
When AntiCheat is enabled only the tiles that have been revealed will update on the UI. This is most evident with the mini-map but also applies to tiles revealed by spelunker and dangersense potions.
Here you can decide what should be displayed on the UI panel
- UseDefaultPosition: Centers the panel on the top of the screen
- LockPosition: When the panel is unlocked it can be moved by the mouse
- AnchorX: Describes what vertical part of the panel is always constant regardless of how the content changes.
- Left: The panel will expand to the right
- Center: The panel will expand (left and right) evenly from the center
- Right The content will expand to the left
- AnchorY: Describes what horizontal part of the panel is always constant regardless of how the content changes.
- Top: The panel will expand downwards
- Center: The panel will expand (up and down) evenly from the center
- Bottom: The content will expand upwards
- AnchorPosX: The exact X pixel location of the anchor point.
- AnchorPosY: The exact Y pixel location of the anchor point.
You want to position the panel so that it is always right next to the mini-map. Using the settings
AnchorX = Right
AnchorY = Bottom
AnchorPosX = 1619 (This will likely be different based on monitor size and UI Scale)
AnchorPosY = 334 (This will likely be different based on monitor size and UI Scale)
Guarantees that the panel will always remain next to the bottom left of the mini-map regardless of its size

AnchorPosY = 334 (This will likely be different based on monitor size and UI Scale)

You want to center the panel on the bottom of the screen instead of the top. Using the settings
AnchorX = Center
AnchorY = Bottom
AnchorPosX = 960 (This will likely be different based on monitor size and UI Scale)
AnchorPosY = 1080 (This will likely be different based on monitor size and UI Scale)
Guarantees that the panel will always remain centered at the bottom of the screen

Guarantees that the panel will always remain centered at the bottom of the screen
- MaxWidth, MaxHeight: The maximum percentage of the screen the panel can be
- PanelPadding: How much space there is (in pixels) between the content and the edge of the panel
- CycleDelay: The number of ticks before the panel cycles types (Tile -> Wall -> Liquid -> Tile). This is only relevant when the tile that is being hovered over has multiples types.
ContentSettings are the settings that describe what to do with the content when it is too big for the panel. The settings are as follows:
Shrink as the name suggests scales the content so that it will fit inside the panel. Depending on what your ReservedImageWidth is will determine if the text, image, both, or neither will be shrunk. It is important to note that this only shrinks and does not enlarge, so the content will only get smaller not larger to fit the panel's dimensions. Also it applies uniform scaling meaning that it will retain its aspect ratio when scaling and not stretch to fill the entire space.
Trim cuts the content off so that it fits inside the panel. Again depending on what your ReservedImageWidth is will determine if the text, image, both, or neither will be trimmed. Images are trimmed to the exact pixel, whereas text it trimmed by character.
Overflow is largely useless and lets the content extend beyond its boundaries regardless of the panels dimensions. This will not extend the panel beyond its boundaries, as the content will just be drawn outside/beyond the panel.
HoverOpacity changes how visible the panel is when the cursor is hovering over it. It ranges from 0-1 where 0 is invisible and 1 is fully visible.
Below shows the HoverOpacity starting from 0.25 (the default) and going to 1 in 0.25 increments

Determines how the panel updates either Automatic or Manual
In Automatic mode the panel will switch Contexts (Tile, Wall, Liquid, etc) automatically depending on the specified CycleDelay config. You can still use the Next Context and Previous Context keys to cycle between the available contexts associated with the mouse position
In Manual mode the only way to switch Contexts is with the Next Context and Previous Context keybinds
In Automatic mode the panel will switch Contexts (Tile, Wall, Liquid, etc) automatically depending on the specified CycleDelay config. You can still use the Next Context and Previous Context keys to cycle between the available contexts associated with the mouse position

Whether or not the background panel is displayed.
The UI will always be visible.
The UI will never be visible.
The UI will turn toggle its visibility based on the Automatic Options listed below
These options only apply if the UIDisplay setting is set to Automatic
This will hide the UI when hovering over air tiles.
Changes the color of the background panel.
Displays a black border around the text
Overrides any pre-existing colors on the text. Some mods add color to the name of their mods so this is only relevant if you are using one of those. For example The Stars Above mod has their mod name in a pink/purple color. If OverrideColor is ON then the color of the mod's text will replaced by your specified Text Color.
But if OverrideColor is OFF then no matter what your Text Color is the mod's pre-defined color will always take precedence.
But if OverrideColor is OFF then no matter what your Text Color is the mod's pre-defined color will always take precedence.
Changes the color of the panel's text
Priotizes displaying the texture of the item that places the tile as opposed to the texture of the tile itself (Only works for tiles that have items that place them)
ReservedImageWidth is the percentage of the panel that is reserved for the image if the text and image do not fit on the panel
The relevant settings are as follows:
MaxWidth = 10%
ContentSetting = Trim
ReservedImageWidth = 25%
Here 25% of the panel's width is less than the width of the image so it is cut off. This leaves 75% of the panel's width for the text which is also less than the full text's width and as a result is also trimmed.
ReservedImageWidth = 100%
Setting the ReservedImageWidth to 100% means that the image is allowed to take up the entire panel. However this image does not need to take up the entire panel because it is not that big. Thus the text can use the remaining space.
ReservedImageWidth = 0%
Similarly a ReservedImageWidth of 0% means that all the panel's space can be allocated to the text. In this example 100% of the panel's width is still not enough to fit the text resulting in the text being trimmed off and the image missing.
It is important to note that setting the ReservedImageWidth to 0% does not guarantee that the image will disappear. For example this was taken with the same settings:
Because the text does not take up 100% or greater of the panel's width there is still room on the panel for the image to be added to the panel and still be within the bounds of the MaxWidth. Thus the remaining space is filled with the image.
MaxWidth = 10%
ContentSetting = Trim
ReservedImageWidth = 25%

The relevant settings are as follows:
MaxWidth = 10%
ContentSetting = Shrink
ReservedImageWidth = 25%
Here the image is shrunk to fit into 25% of the panels width and the text to 75% of the panel's width
ReservedImageWidth = 100%
Setting the ReservedImageWidth to 100% means that the image is allowed to take up the entire panel. As a result the image does not need to shrink and takes up its normal width. However the text needs to shrink more to fill in the empty space.
ReservedImageWidth = 0%
A ReservedImageWidth of 0% means that all the panel's space can be allocated to the text. In this example giving the text 100% of the texts width, still results in the text needing to shrink and as a result the image is removed.
Again like in the trim example it is important to note that a ReservedImageWidth of 0% does not always mean that the image is removed
Since the text does not take up the full 100% of the space, the image shrinks into the remaining space.
MaxWidth = 10%
ContentSetting = Shrink
ReservedImageWidth = 25%
Here the image is shrunk to fit into 25% of the panels width and the text to 75% of the panel's width

Setting the ReservedImageWidth to 100% means that the image is allowed to take up the entire panel. As a result the image does not need to shrink and takes up its normal width. However the text needs to shrink more to fill in the empty space.
