ViewBoard

The Controlling mod is officially supported by ViewBoard 1.2.0+

IMPORTANT NOTE: A GUI scale of ___3 or below___ is heavily recommended to display the keyboard at a resolution of 1080p or more.

TL;DR

This mod adds a button in the bottom-right corner of the keybinds settings. It opens a preview of your keyboard and color codes each key depending on whether it’s:

• Free (No keybinds are using the key)
• Used (The key is being used by one keybind)
• Conflicting (Multiple keybinds use the key)

This mod is especially useful if you are playing a large modpack with multiple keybinds using the same key. You can also use it to find which key on the keyboard is free and can be assigned to a new keybind.
