Move to a safe place

Stop somewhere away from combat. Hiding the interface can also hide health, hotkeys, or navigation that you need during a fight.

Hide the first group of panels

Press Alt+X once. The minimap and some panels, including information near the top-left, should disappear.

Keep only essential combat information

Press Alt+X again. This level keeps limited information such as hotkeys and health while hiding more of the surrounding interface.

Hide the full interface

Press Alt+X a third time for a clean view. Use this level for a screenshot only when it is safe to lose the visible controls.

Restore the interface

Press Alt+X again. Continue pressing the same shortcut until the minimap, hotbar, health, and other normal panels return.

Check the current hotkey

If the shortcut does not work, open Settings > Hotkeys > Others and find Hide UI. Review or change the assignment if the game allows it.

If it does not work

  • If nothing changes, click the game world to close chat or another text field, then press Alt+X again.
  • If only part of the interface returns, continue cycling through the display levels instead of resetting every UI setting.
  • If the shortcut conflicts with another program, review Hide UI under Hotkeys > Others and use an editable replacement.
