### Editing a Hologram

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

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

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`

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;

#### Displaying Images
