The buttons
Which buttons Sorted adds to the inventory and chest screens, and what each one does.
The buttons sit in vanilla button frames, so a resource pack that restyles buttons restyles these too. Their icons are sprites that a pack can replace. Hover a button to see what it does.
Under your inventory #
In your own inventory and in every chest, from left to right:
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Search | Opens Find Items, the Search. The same as `. |
| Quick Empty | Only with a chest open. Moves your main inventory into the chest. See Quick Fill, Quick Empty and Pull All. |
| Quick Fill | Tops up the stacks you carry: from the open chest, or from the chests around you. |
| Quick Stack | Puts items away in the chests that already hold them: into the open chest, or into the chests around you. See Quick Stack. |
| Sort | Sorts your inventory. See Sorting your inventory. |
In your own inventory, where they use the chests around you, the tooltips call Quick Stack and Quick Fill Stack to Nearby Containers and Fill from Nearby Containers.
Above a chest #
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Pull All | Moves everything in the chest into your inventory. |
| Sort | Sorts the chest. See Sorting chests. |
These show on chests, barrels, shulker boxes and ender chests, in the backpacks Sorted knows, and on containers from other mods that ask for them or that you add. See Containers from other mods.
Clicks and modifiers #
| Click | What it does |
|---|---|
| Click a sort button | Sorts. In a chest, the layout is picked for you, unless you set one in the settings. |
| Shift+Click a sort button | Sorts in columns, one kind of thing per column. |
| Ctrl+Click a sort button | Sorts in rows, one kind of thing per row. |
| Alt+Click a sort button | Sorts compact: everything in order, no gaps. |
| Shift+Click Quick Stack | Also puts away items that have no chest yet. |
| Click Quick Stack holding a stack | Puts away only the stack on your cursor. Shift+Click sends every stack of that item, hotbar included. |
| Alt+Click an item | Keeps it: it is never sent to a chest. See The keep list. |
| Alt+Scroll an item | Keeps more or fewer stacks of it. |
On a Mac, Ctrl+Click can reach the game as a right-click. A right-click on a sort button does the same as Ctrl+Click, so rows work either way.
Where the buttons do not show #
- In the creative inventory.
- In chest screens a server uses as a shop or a menu. See Servers.
