Hidden inventory management

[A.Im.]

Don't think I have seen this mentioned in here, but there is a inventory management, that isn't explained in the help section.
Left click on item in your inventory, shift left click another item and all items in between will be selected. Then all items can be drag-dropped.
Unbelievable how many single item drag and drop I have done until now. Why isn't this simple inventory management trick explained anywhere in the game.

It is even possible to Right-Click the selection and get the context menu, hence the easiest Add to Wares :)

Thank you for this.
Do you happen to know how to sort the inventory (on value)

It's explained in... Inventory. Click "I", and you will see these tips on the top right side.

Yes, now that you mention that tiny little 'i', I see it.
It be good if they add that info to the tutorial Inventory section as well.

Oh yes!
I do inventory stuff via party view. Sorting is then on the top left

You can also CTRL-click to select different items which aren't next to each other.
Another good tip is to pick up pouches/sacks/backpacks, load things like potions and arrows into them, and then drag the bag onto your hotbar (you might need to unlock it with the little lock symbol). Clicking them from the hotbar opens the bag.

Thanks!

There is no need to explain 'ctrl+click is the basic group selection method' to the people in 2023 in my opinion. It's like learning walking in terms of PC user interface. It's not a 'BG3 help' topic it's a 'using PC' topic so Larian has nothing to teach you about anything related to this topic imo.

Except ctrl click is next to never used in inventories in games, so people are not used to that. So yes, saying "you an use regular windows shortcuts" would have been helpful.

cool feature. shouldve been mentioned in tutorials heh.

I remember there was a hotkey for adding stuff to wares with a click in EA. Can't find it now. And is there one for sending stuff quickly to camp?

[Mash]

Yeah, it would be nice to have a hotkey to mark items for sale, as Diablo 4 has.
