To create a hologram, use `/hd create <name>`.

Note that the hologram is going to be created at the position where the player that issued the command is.

You should be able to see this now:

### Editing a Hologram

#### Setting a Line

To set a line of a hologram, use `/hd setline <hologram name> <line number> <new text>`.

&#x20;

#### Adding a New Line

To add a new line to the hologram, use `/hd addline <hologram name> <text>`.

&#x20;

#### Coloring and Formatting

You can make your holograms look better by coloring and formatting them!

We achieved this result by using: `/hd setline example 2 &6&lThis is the hologram's second line`

&#x20;

#### Moving a Hologram

To move a hologram to a different place, use `/hd movehere <hologram name>` The hologram will be moved to the player’s current position.

&#x20;

#### Deleting a Hologram

To delete a hologram, use `/hd delete <hologram name>`

&#x20;

#### Displaying Images

To display an image in a hologram, upload the image to `/plugins/HolographicDisplays/` and use `/hd readimage <hologram name> <image> <hologram width>`

#### Using Placeholders

You can also use placeholders on your holograms to make them more dynamic! Below, you can see a table with useful placeholders.
