We are now releasing pre-release 5 for Minecraft 1.19.1. This pre-release includes the remaining fixes for a known exploit regarding player report context and several improvements to chat preview. It also fixes some other crashes and bugs.

Changes in 1.19.1 Pre-release 5

Chat

• When writing chat messages, the signing status of the displayed chat messages is shown with a colored indicator
  • The indicator will either appear to the left of the chat input field, or to the left of the chat preview if chat preview is being used
  • The indicator will be green when the displayed message is signed
  • The indicator will be orange when Chat Preview is enabled and a preview is waiting to be signed
• The background of the chat preview will also display slightly faded when a preview is waiting to be signed

Chat Preview

• Added “On Send” Chat Preview option for updating chat previews only when attempting to send a message
  • To confirm sending a message, a second hit of the Enter/Return key is required
  • The previous “ON” setting has been renamed to “On Modified”
• The “On Modified” mode no longer displays previews if the message has not been modified by the server
• Chat Preview is now enabled in singleplayer, and will display when using commands that have selector substitution such as /say
• Previewed hover events and click events are now highlighted with a solid background

Technical Changes in 1.19.1 Pre-release 5
