Lumen Tooltips
by noramibu
Lumen Tooltips extends the tooltips shown when a player hovers over an item, adding previews of container contents and extra data about gear, food and enchantments.
What it does
Hovering over an item shows more than the vanilla text. Containers such as shulker boxes and bundles can display their contents, books can show their stored enchantments, and fireworks and spawn eggs display their own details without being placed or used. Durability, food values, enchantment descriptions and gear comparisons are added to the same panel, so players can read item stats before deciding what to craft or equip.
Most of the mod's displays can be turned on or off, which lets each player choose how much information the tooltips show. Scrolling inside a tooltip and a set of hotkeys let players move through previews and run inventory actions from the keyboard. Fabric API is required, and the optional Item Editor - Component & NBT mod can be added alongside it. Lumen Tooltips is a client-side mod: only the player's game needs it, and servers can run without it.
Files are published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt. The latest builds target 26.3, and the release range covers 1.21.11 – 26.3. The code is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and it is open source.
