Changing tool name in the hotbar

Hi, how would I change what the name of a tool is displayed as in the hotbar without changing the name of the tool itself?

You could give it a tooltip and give the tool a texture ID… or code your own hotbar and make custom values inside the tools to show what name will be displayed

You’d need to change the name of the tool itself, if you want to store the original name for later use then you could use an attribute.

Tool:SetAttribute("OldName", Tool.Name)
