Is there anyway to modify the client to display user name and password in plain text?

 

Example of what I mean:

 

Like in html, you can change the input type from "password" to "text" and it will display your password. Is this possible to do with the old school client and how would I go about doing it? Can you even physically edit the main interface? 

 

I wanted to play a prank on my buddy when he comes over later today. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

 

Thanks,

Don't think so, sorry!

Could I update the client after editing this to TextField from PasswordField? Or would it not function right after editing it?

@FXML
public PasswordField password_field;
 
@FXML
public TextField username_field;

or editing the fxml files...

 

<TextField fx:id="username_field" layoutX="81.0" layoutY="10.0" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="239.0" />
<PasswordField fx:id="password_field" layoutX="81.0" layoutY="40.0" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="239.0" />

No, neither is this a valid question without getting banned. I'm gonna pretend I didn't see this.
