The minimap

The square map in the corner: turning, zoom, the lines under it, and when it steps away.

A square map in the corner that turns with you, on a soft shadow so it sits loose from the world. New ground fades in as you explore, and underground it fades over to the cave you are in.

Turning or north up #

By default the map turns so the way you face is always up, with N on the edge pointing north, in red. Turn off Turn with me and north stays up while the arrow turns. Compass letters shows or hides N, E, S and W.

Zoom and enlarge #

[ zooms out and ] zooms in, from far out to close.
Hold Z for a big minimap in the middle of the screen, without opening the world map. Let go and it goes back.

Lines under it #

Each line is a switch of its own under Lines under the map on the settings' Minimap tab. The digits of the coordinates stay in fixed places, so they don't jump as they count.

Line	Shows	Default
Coordinates	Where you are: X, Y and Z	On
Direction	The way you face: north, southeast and so on	Off
Time of day	The time in the world as a clock: 6:00 is sunrise, 18:00 sunset	Off

When it steps away #

In an inventory or another menu (Hide in menus). Chat keeps it.

With F1, with the rest of the HUD.
A key of your own shows or hides it: Show or hide the minimap, not set by default. See Keys and commands.

Potion effect icons move to its left instead of pushing it down, and game notifications such as advancements slide in below it.

Go to the HUD tab and open the layout.
