About this project
What does Persistent Inventory Search add?
Persistent Inventory Search is a client-side mod designed to make inventory management in Creative mode a lot easier. By default when using the search function, you'll lose the query once a different tab is chosen or when the inventory is closed. What this mod does, is save whatever you've been searching for and immediately show it again when opening the search tab. You can continue to work with your favourite blocks, without having to type their names over and over again. The query is selected when it's shown again, so just start typing when you'd like to search for something else.
Each tab also remembers how far you've scrolled down, so you'll return to the exact spot you left. All features can be toggled separately in the config.
All available config options:
keepSearchQuery default true
Whether the creative search query is kept when switching tabs or closing the inventory.
selectKeptSearchQuery default true
Whether the kept search query is selected, so typing a new search replaces it.
keepSearchTabScrollPosition default true
Whether the search tab keeps its scroll position.
keepOtherTabsScrollPosition default true
Whether the other creative tabs keep their scroll position.
