Inventory issues - moving items between screens

Unread post by Snarfy »

I'm not sure if anyone else is having problems moving items between screens/sections 1 through 4, but for the last few months I'm having a hell of a time swapping items around in my inventory. Before a few weeks ago, the only issues I had was when I wanted to move something from screen 3 or 4 to screen 1, which worked fine after logging in, but became an issue after transitioning.

Lately I'm finding that the only way I can move items between sections is by dragging the item numerous times(sometimes as many as 6 times is required). Up until about a week or two ago, moving items from screen 1 to 2 didn't work very often, but I could move items from screen 1 to 3 or 4 fairly reliably. Now I have to multiple-drag every single item.

For example, if I run my ranger through a dungeon and find 8 items, they default to his first inventory screen, and I prefer to shuffle anything unidentified to his third screen(for organizational purposes, and OCD). About 1 or 2 out of the 8 items will drag and drop to screen three just fine, but for the other 6 items I either have to drag them multiple times, or... and this is where it gets weird, if I move the troublesome item to the inventory slot that was previously occupied by item number 1 or 2, I'll usually have an easier time re-routing the item to screen three. And by usually I mean about 50% of the time.

Anyone else having this issue or know of a fix? It's really starting to get on my nerves.

Do you happen to have any of the collapsible windows overlapping your inventory?

I've found that even if the PC Tools window is collapsed the game will still consider it to be overlapping whatever else is on my screen, including the inventory and trade window. If I click something in that area it doesn't work, and dragging items into the area makes the character drop items on the ground.

Just a thought :)

Close the quickcast bar :p

"Yes. They will atone in death."
"Ah. That will help them understand."

I think this was it... I moved my inventory screen down and away from PC Tools, so far seems to be working fine :dance: No more dragging a bazillion times.

Cheers!
