When renamed with a name tag, armor stand will not show the nameplate above its head until CustomNameVisible:1b is set

The bug

When renamed with a name tag, armor stand will not show the nameplate above its head until CustomNameVisible:1b is set.

To reproduce

  1. Place an armor stand

  2. Rename it with a name tag

  3. Use the following command:

    /data merge entity @e[type=minecraft:armor_stand,limit=1,sort=nearest] {CustomNameVisible:1}

Use

/entitydata @e[type=ArmorStand,r=5] {CustomName:"Name Here"}

while standing within 5 blocks of the armor stand you want to change.

Please do not mark unreleased versions as affected.
You don't have access to them yet.

/entitydata @e[type=ArmorStand,r=5] {CustomName:"Name Here"}
Thx, I know this command, but that doesn't change, that you can't rename an armor stand with a name tag as you could before (and should be able to).

Also this bot-thing is silly. Why do we have access to this version number in the affected versions list, when we aren't supposed to mark it with it?

Ezekiel

The bot thing is not silly, because it fixed your mistake.

Renaming armor stands by name tags was never possible.
