Now that we have known the formula or title command for performing distinct actions, let us move to the other step of the actual process. 

  1. Commanding the time set

Now that we have opened up the chat window and also know the formula for using the title command to display the different editions of Minecraft. It  is the  time to combine the chat  window and the formula together for performing the  required action. 

We know that there are some title formulas or commands for performing a specific 

action in Minecraft gameplay, those are;

/title <targets> title <title text>

/title <targets> subtitle <title text>

/title <targets> action bar <title text>

/title <targets> clear

/title <targets> reset

Where, the terms targets, and title text are;

Targets 

The term target refers to the name or title of  the player, whose name you want to display over the screen in Minecraft. 

Title text

The term title text refers to the text that you want to display over the screen in Minecraft. 

After you have typed the respected command /title  inside the chat window of your edition of  Minecraft, you need to hit the Enter button on your respected device or  editions of  Minecraft, so as to confirm the  command  that  you wish to apply, which in this case is to  set  the  time to sunset. 

  • Press on the Enter button on your  respected device or edition of Minecraft. 

Thereafter, you will see that the screen of  your gameplay will reveal the exact action that you have enlisted in the title command. Suppose  you enter the title command for enlarging the screen of  a particular player, then the screen of that player will increase in size. If you enter the title command for displaying the  subtitle on the screen of a player in the  gameplay, then you will see the similar subtitle appear on your screen. 

You will also notice that the message ‘title  command  successfully executed’ appears over  your Minecraft screen. 

Thereby the Minecraft is revealing the title command that you have just entered to perform the  required action. 

Here, you need to perform one last thing to successfully set the time for running the title command in your Minecraft gameplay. Suppose you wish to set the time to some 30 ticks, stay time to some 100 ticks, and fade out time to some 40 ticks. Thus, the title text that you have typed in this respected formula will have the fade in, stay, and fade out times as 30,100, and 40 respectively. 

So, the formula for setting the fade in, stay, and fade out time will become;

/title < targets > times < 30> < 100 > < 40 >

  • Type the respective formula inside the chat window on your devices and editions of Minecraft. And hit the Enter button after you have typed the respected formula. 

Thereafter, the name that you have enlisted inside the title command will appear on your  Minecraft screen for the required time to fade in, stay, and  fade out. This effect will work next time you use the title  command for performing a certain action. 

Here, you have successfully completed the process of using the title command in the Minecraft gameplay.
