How to get the name of an Item that an Anvil changed it to.

[ItzPray]

Im trying to get the name of a paper item after its name was changed in an anvil. Although using ItemStack.getDisplayName(); or ItemStack.getHoverName(); does not return this.

I also tried looking at Item but i cant find any way to get the Items Name.

Is there any way to get the name I want from the ItemStack?

Subscribe to AnvilUpdateEvent you then can get the name via AnvilUpdateEvent#getName

Thank you i figured out a system to get this event to work. I have another question if you dont mind is it possible to pop up this menu manually instead of having a player open up an anvil and type in  a value so they can just have a anvil gui pop up and they can just type in the value?

Not really.

You could try to emulate what AnvilBlock.use() does.

But you will hit a roadblock trying to implement the ContainerLevelAccess which AnvilMenu/ItemCombinerMenu uses for things like checking the AnvilBlock is still there, breaking the anvil block after crafting, etc.

Vanilla Menus are hardcoded, they can only be open on a specific Block.
You need to create your own Menu to achieve this.
