A lightweight Quality of Life plugin that lets you pick the painting you actually want.
In vanilla Minecraft, the only way to change a painting's image is to break it and place a new one — and the result is random, so you might re‑hang it a dozen times before the picture you wanted finally shows up.
PaintingSelector turns that into a calm, in‑place scroll. Hold a brush and right‑click a painting to cycle to the next image; shift + right‑click to go back. The painting stays exactly where it is, and its size never changes — you only ever swap between variants of the same dimensions.
| Action | Result |
|---|---|
| Right‑click a painting with a brush | Next image of the same size |
| Shift + right‑click with a brush | Previous image |
That's it
| Feature |
|---|
| Size‑safe — only swaps same‑size variants, so the painting never moves or breaks |
| Durability consumption — the brush takes wear with each scroll |
| Enchantment‑aware — respects the Unbreaking enchantment |
| Vanilla statistics — updates your Used counter for the brush |
