MC-106302, it is still not possible to rename saddled pigs when you use your off-hand.What I expected to happen was...:
After right-clicking a saddled pig with a renamed name tag in the off-hand, the custom name should appear above the pig.What actually happened was...:
Instead, the custom name does not appear and the name tag is not used up. The same as what would happen when using the main hand prior to the fix ofMC-106302.Steps to Reproduce:
1. Saddle a pig
2. Rename a name tag in an anvil to anything custom so it can be used
3. Put the name tag in your off-hand, and a non-useable item in your main (e.g.: an axe)
4. Right-click the saddled pigAdditional info:
- Applies to pigs, not tested if it applies to renaming villagers as well.
- Using the name tag from your main hand correctly works as promoted by the fix to
MC-106302.

Confirmed for 1.13.1-pre1
Confirmed for 1.13.1
Confirmed for 1.13.2
Saddled pigs have been fixed now, you can rename them with a name tag in your off-hand, if you hold SHIFT (to prevent mounting it) as expected.
Can confirm in 1.18.2.
I can confirm this in 1.19.2 though I'm inclined to believe that this behavior is working as intended judging by the following comment made by [Mojang] Billy Sjöberg on
MC-197156where they state that empty main hand interactions take precedence over offhand interactions.
