better-creative
Minecraft gives you no control over the creative tabs. Install a few mods and the bar turns into pages of tabs you have to click through to reach the three you actually use. This mod lets you sort them, pin the ones you need, and hide the rest.

About this project
What does better-creative add?



Better Creative puts you in charge of the creative inventory tab bar: sort the tabs, pin the ones you use and hide the rest.
Two hundred tabs in your pack, three you actually open.

Sort: vanilla order, A to Z, Z to A, or your own by drag and drop.
Pin: your favourite tabs always come first, whatever the order.
Hide: drop the tabs you never open, or all but the pinned ones in one click.
Presets: save named layouts and switch between them.
Pack-proof: tabs are tracked by id, so adding or removing mods never scrambles your layout.

One click away: a gear button in the creative inventory, or Mods, Better Creative, Config.
Built-in help: a help page explains every control and every limit.
Nothing to set up: client side only, works on vanilla servers.
Pack whitelist: ship config/better-creative/policy.json to list only the tabs you allow.
Server locks: with Creative Admin on the server, locked tabs disappear and stay off.
JEI and EMI: the tab registry is never touched, so they see the game as it is.
Modpacks welcome: no need to ask, as long as the pack uses the official file, unmodified.

Better Creative vous rend maître de la barre d'onglets de l'inventaire créatif : triez les onglets, épinglez ceux que vous utilisez et masquez le reste.
Deux cents onglets dans votre pack, trois que vous ouvrez vraiment.
Trier : ordre vanilla, de A à Z, de Z à A, ou le vôtre par glisser-déposer.
Épingler : vos onglets favoris passent toujours en tête, quel que soit l'ordre.
Masquer : retirez les onglets inutiles, ou tous sauf les épinglés en un clic.
Préréglages : enregistrez des dispositions nommées et passez de l'une à l'autre.
Robuste : les onglets sont suivis par identifiant : ajouter ou retirer un mod ne dérange rien.
À un clic : un bouton engrenage dans l'inventaire créatif, ou Mods, Better Creative, Config.
Aide intégrée : une page d'aide explique chaque contrôle et chaque limite.
Rien à installer : uniquement côté client, fonctionne sur les serveurs vanilla.
Liste blanche : fournissez config/better-creative/policy.json pour ne lister que les onglets autorisés.
Verrous serveur : avec Creative Admin sur le serveur, les onglets verrouillés disparaissent pour de bon.
JEI et EMI : le registre des onglets n'est jamais modifié : ils voient le jeu tel quel.
Modpacks bienvenus : sans rien demander, tant que le pack utilise le fichier officiel non modifié.

Creative Admin enforces creative restrictions on the server, by profile. Neither mod needs the other.
Creative Admin applique des restrictions créatives côté serveur, par profil. Aucun des deux mods n'a besoin de l'autre.
