A collection of small improvements to various aspects of Minecraft's menus.
Why?
My aim with this mod was to improve the user experience of Minecraft's menus while preserving the Vanilla feel and look.
Most features added by this mod only slightly tweak Vanilla behavior to feel smoother and more responsive. There are also some bigger additions like indicators, but I tried to avoid big changes away from Vanilla. Finally, I also added the ability to customize some normally hard-coded key bindings.

Features
This mod contains a variety of features split into different categories.
Feel free to create a Feature Request if you want to request something new, or alternatively you can create a Bug Report if something's broken.
Cycle Button
Indicators
These allow you to instantly gauge the number of possible options and additionally provide a way to quickly navigate when pressed.

Colored On/Off text
Helps you to immediately recognize the value of an On/Off button.

Switches
Transforms buttons that only contain the word ON or OFF into simpler, more recognizable switches.

Sliders
Indicators
Sliders with few values will have indicators, helping you use them.

Snapping
Vanilla has a 600ms delay before snapping for some sliders. ImproveMyMenus removes that delay making sliders feel more responsive.

Spacing
Vanilla leaves big gaps at the edges of sliders, which can act unintuitively.

Cursor
The cursor doesn't lose its arrow shape when dragging a slider or scrollbar outside its area.
Improved Debug Options
Added translations for debug options, redesigned the tri-state toggle and restores the previous screen upon closing the settings.

High Contrast Support
Built-in support for the "High Contrast" Vanilla resource pack.

Customization
Every visual change can be modified using a resource pack. None of them are hard-coded. The "Debug Options" translations are extendable using a resource pack, which means, you can add additional translations specific to other mods. Furthermore, tooltips are supported.
Check out the Resource Packs for more information, on how to customize ImproveMyMenus.
And a lot more..
Configuration
It's recommended to install Mod Menu in order to access the mod's configuration screen.
Without Mod Menu you can also access the config by running the command /improvemymenus-config.
