When a segment has multiple display formats (variants), clicking the Format button on a chain block opens the format popup.

​
Variant Selection

The top of the popup lists all available display variants for that segment. For example, Health might offer: Click a variant to select it. The selected variant is highlighted in green. The chain preview updates in real time to show the new format.

​
Prefix & Suffix

Below the variant list, two text fields let you wrap the segment output:
  • Before (prefix) - text prepended to the segment value, e.g. HP: [
  • After (suffix) - text appended to the segment value, e.g. ]
With the above settings and the Current/Max variant, the output would be: HP: [42/67]

​
Bar Style

This section is only visible when the selected variant is a Bar type. It contains:
  • Empty - the character used for unfilled segments of the bar. Defaults to -
For example, with Empty: . the bar would render as ||||||...... instead of ||||||------.

​
Confirm / Cancel

Format changes are previewed live in the chain but are not saved until you click Confirm. Click Cancel to discard changes and revert to the previous format settings. After confirming, remember to click Save in the main editor to persist your changes to disk.
