Way to see input and output of storage?

Is there a way to see the input and output of a storage container somehow? Things are getting chaotic and the bigger everything gets the more I lose sight of how many of certain parts I produce.

The way it is right now I am supposed to know everything that is connected to a container. As bigger everything gets the more impossible it becomes to be 100% efficient without knowing the numbers...

a old skool trick is to place just a very tiny amount of belt on the storage output port, just enough to make x1 item pop out the back. but beyond that nothing really ya can do

just go into dismantle mode, you can see the belts going into and out of the storage containers and you can aim at the containers and look at the icon of whatever's inside.

When I say you can look at the belts, I mean you can see the number of the belt and then know how much is going in and coming out. Is it a Mk.2 belt? 120/minute. Is it a Mk.1 belt? 60/minute.
