Armor Stand Edit
Allows players in survival to easily edit armor stand pose and attributes. I hated that there was no way to edit armor stands without using command blocks or giving players permission to use dangerous(if given to everyone) cumbersome commands. That is why I created this tool!
Features
- Easily edit armor stands with no commands
- Quick to learn
- Rotate all armorstand parts along each axis.
- Rotate the entire armorstand after it is placed.
- Open up the armorstand's inventory to place items where they wouldn't normally go. (Allows for dual wielding, banners on heads, pumpkins in had, etc.)
- Crouch+Scroll to change axis on the fly without opening the menu.
- Fine adjustment allows you to fine tune a body part's position while coarse adjustment allows you to quickly get it close to the intended position.
- Toggle show arms, invisibility, baseplate, normal/small size, and gravity.
- Move armor stands around to get them exactly where you want them.
- Copy settings of one armor stand and paste them to another.
- Survival-friendly pasting: It does not copy/paste/duplicate items unless the player is in creative mode.
- Store the copied settings in one of 9 copy slots.
- Name armor stands with name tags, just like with vanilla mobs.
- Now with colored names!
- Respects protection plugins such as Worldguard, Towny, GriefPrevention and Residence.
How to use
- Hold the editing tool in your main hand. (flint by default)
- Left/right click away from an armor stand to open menu.
- Select the labeled menu options.
- Left/Right Click the armor stand with the tool in hand to apply those options.
Tips
- Shift+scroll wheel up/down changes axis quickly
- Remeber that when rotating body parts left click rotates one direction and right clicking the armor stand rotates it the opposite way.
- Coarse adjustment rotates body parts quickly, while fine adjustment allows you fine-tune the position once it is close.
- When you copy armor stand settings, the tool automatically switches to paste mode
- Other ArmorStands getting in the way? Press the switch-items key (default F) to target a specific armorstand.
Commands
All commands are both not required and not recommended; using the editing tool is much easier than typing these commands. However, if you wish to use these commands for other plugins (eg your own chest menu GUI) you can do so.
/ase mode <mode> Sets the mode of the editing tool.
/ase axis <axis> Sets the axis used when rotating armorstand body parts
/ase adj <adjustment> Set the editing tool to rotate in large increments or small increments.
/ase slot <slot> Sets the edit tool's copy slot which will be used to either copy or paste armorstand attributes.
Permissions
asedit.basic: Allow use armorstand edit functions. If set to false it will override all other functions.
asedit.invisible: Toggle armorstand visible/invisible.
asedit.rename: Allows player to rename armorstands with nametag (use & for colored names)
Configuration
coarse: The number of rotations (and clicks) it takes to rotate a body part in a full circle using coarse adjustment. Default: 12
fine: The number of rotations to come full circle using fine adjustment. Default: 120
tool: Name of the edit tool's item Material. Default: FLINT
lang: The name of the language file to use. The file should be in plugins/ArmorStandEditor/lang/. Default: en_US.yml
sendMessagesToActionBar: If true, send most plugin messages to the action bar instead of chat. Default: true

maybe im dumb, but its not working for me :P
When i choose show arms, i can click on the armor stand with any button as much as i want (even holding shift or not) nothing happens. Im using the latest version btw.
@rypofalem
Oh, thank you! I really needed this plugin for a server I am making, and I did not want to go through the complications of having to make NPCs (using customized armour stands) the traditional way using command blocks. This plugin is going to help many people and I'm sure you're going to have a bright future in plugin/mod development. (BTW no need to reply to this)
I submitted version 1.8-0.1.2BETA but it hasn't been approved just yet. If you switch to this version, keep in mind that some functionality had to be changed in order to respect worldguard (and most likely other plugin's) protections.
Left-clicking an armor stand with the editing tool was the previous method to update it. Now, you must right click the armor stand instead. The reverse-rotation function was moved to crouch+right click. I apologize for any inconvenience this changes causes.

I am happy that you are excited about it and thanks!
The editing tool is a piece of flint (unless you change it in the config). Just hold the tool in your hand, click on a non-armorstand-block (or just in the air) and select options from the chest menu that appears. Then click the armorstand and the armorstand will change based on the settings you selected.
I made a short video explaining it (only the first 5 minutes is explaining the features, the rest is just me playing silently). It was meant to be pasted here but the video came out very quiet so I want to redo it. I hope it helps you until I can make another video. https://youtu.be/sLeRcMKxv_k
I'm sorry, this maybe a stupid question, but how exactly does one open/find/hold the editing tool? P.S. I <3 the concept of this plugin and thank you for making it! :)
