I would love a toggle or button or key combo that we could activate to tell us the item ID of a material (block or wood beam for example). So that when we are adding to a building we can easily identify what material we used and then can select the correct color item ID in the crafting bench! You might be able to hover over a material in a build and invoke a command to reveal the label, or turn on a toggle (like "control" when precision building) to then have the labels be activated.
Material Label Toggle, ID label

if you hold a block in your hand, anytime you point to a block, the texture id will show in the botom left under the health bar.

Yup. Already have it, and it's as Zork said. Makes sure you have a man-made block with you selected (active) in the hotbar to then hover over blocks. It was a hassle that I asked Red51 to do such, and glad we have such a feature. Was frustrating not knowing what we last used. Thanks, Red51!

I didn't know that because I have to play in windowed mode and the bottom of my screen below the health bar is cut off. I did switch to full screen to check it out, and I see it. If you hover over a block you can get an ID but not if you hover over a board or beam. So adding that would be nice, placing it over the health bar would be nicer (for me
)!The reason I can't use full screen is that the Steam Overlay simply does not work for Mac. I can't run ANY game with Steam Overlay enabled. I do sometimes like to minimize the game and look at something on the web and I can't do it it in fullscreen. The FKeys simply don't work unless I quit the game. Pretty annoying. Yes, Mac just isn't well supported in the game world. Even in windowed mode I can't get the helpful (I hear) help screen to show with F1. Oh well, I can deal with it.
