Radial Hot Bar
by DevHrytsan
Radial Hot Bar gives players a radial menu for picking items quickly, opened by holding a key and steering the mouse toward the wanted item.
What it does
Holding the default R key opens a radial menu, and moving the mouse toward an item selects it, which offers faster access to items than the hot bar. The menu suits combat and building, where switching slots by number or scrolling takes time away from the action. Players who use Fabric with Iris Shaders should keep in mind that Iris also uses R by default for reloading, so one of the two keys needs rebinding to avoid conflicts.
Radial Hot Bar is a client-side only mod, so only the client needs it and servers run without it. It is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3. Installation needs Cloth Config API on every loader, and Fabric API on Fabric.
Key features
Radial item menu
Holding a key opens a ring of items, and moving the mouse toward one selects it without scrolling the hot bar.
Quick access in combat
Selecting an item from the ring takes little time, which helps during fights and while building.
Rebindable opening key
The key that opens the radial menu can be changed in the controls settings to avoid clashes with other mods.
Movement support with Kilt
Using Kilt to load Forge mods on Fabric can break the hot bar, because Kilt overrides hotkeys when a screen opens; InvMove is the suggested workaround.

What the author says
With the radial menu, you just hold the key (default R), move your mouse toward the item you want, and release. It’s quick and feels great during combat, building or any other gameplay. If you are using Fabric with Iris Shaders keep in mind that it uses R as the default key for reloading shaders. You’ll need to…
