About this project

What does ItemSearch: Ctrl+F add?

Description (Markdown body — same for both platforms)

ItemSearch

Press Ctrl+F inside any container to instantly filter your items.

Tired of scrolling through a packed shulker box or storage chest looking for one item? ItemSearch adds a lightweight Ctrl+F search bar to every container screen — inventory, chests, barrels, shulker boxes, and more — so you can find what you need at a glance.

Features

  • Ctrl+F to search — opens a small search box inside any AbstractContainerScreen. Type to filter; matching items stay highlighted, everything else dims.
  • Works everywhere — chests, barrels, shulker boxes, your own inventory, and other inventory-style screens.
  • Smart Creative Mode handling — on the Survival/Inventory tab, ItemSearch dims your own items just like everywhere else. On the Creative item-palette tabs, ItemSearch stays out of the way so vanilla's own creative search keeps working.
  • Match by item ID (optional) — toggle whether the search also checks the item's registry ID (e.g. minecraft:diamond_sword), not just its display name.
  • Fully repositionable search box — open the settings screen, then drag the search box anywhere on screen and resize it with scroll or +/- buttons.
  • Adjustable dim strength — control how strongly non-matching items are darkened.
  • Lightweight & client-side only — no server install required, safe for singleplayer and any multiplayer server.

Controls

Key Action
Ctrl + F Open/close the search box (while a container screen is open)
(typing) Filter items live as you type
Esc / Enter / Ctrl + F Close the search box and clear the query
K Open ItemSearch settings

Settings are also available from the Mods list → Config.

Settings

  • Enable/disable the feature
  • Match item ID toggle
  • Dim strength (−/+)
  • Search box size (−/+ or scroll)
  • Drag-to-move search box position
  • Reset position & size
