My mistake; this is a Hodgepodge config option. I'd like to amend my suggestion to move that option to GTNH-NEI instead. And I think implementing these suggestions would be useful even with the blocking disabled, so I'll keep it open and see what the contributors think.
Probably a simple mixin for when the search tab is clicked it instead switches to the C+ gui and highlights search would be the most simple, though tying in NEI's search on the vanillas search panel would be the best 'experience' I'd wager...
Yeah, I'd be totally down to just put NEI's search logic into the vanilla Creative search menu. I think that should actually be handled by NEI; it makes no sense for Hodgepodge to be the one behind this.
Or.. hear me out… disable the vanilla creative mode and switch it to the creative+ mode from nei
I'm glad you read 0% of the post, this doesn't actually solve the core issue
Yes I know it is slow. It could be optimized admittedly. But it's faster for me because I already have muscle memory of opening it, since when I open my inventory in a Creative world after starting a game, Creative search would be already open and available for me to type, so I'm used to just pressing E and instantly typing what I want to grab. So it's annoying when I do that and get halfway through typing only to realize that was wasted, then I have to click over to my survival inventory to make the search bar appear, then click the search bar which is much slower and many more clicks. While in a production environment this isn't an issue due to not constantly restarting, in dev I'm constantly doing this by accident since restarting the game places your inventory back in the Creative search tab by default. And sometimes out of pure habit when rearranging my inventory I'll want another item and instantly go into that search tab without thinking.
Here are several ideas I have to reduce the click count on the UI and preserve muscle memory for people like me who have been doing this for years, all of which should be elegant solutions that preserve muscle memory, whilst would also provide convenient shortcuts for people who aren't experiencing my issue. Win-win?
Please let me know what you think.
