When you click on Open in Codex, the codex window appear behind yours. #5

Main Problem: When you click on an item in the Satisfactory Helper window, we have the possibility of opening in the Vanilla Codex (Which in some cases may be interesting), but the latter opens behind the Satisfactory Helper window and therefore all Blurred. .. If we want to see the Codex information then we need to close the Satisfactory Helper window.

When we close the Satisfactory Helper window, of course the mouse cursor is automatically disabled and so we have the Codex window in the center of the screen but when we move the mouse it moves the camera. It's rather annoying and makes using the mod much less practical in my opinion.

If you can look when peoples click on "Open in Codex" question to close automatically your mod window, without disactivating the Mouse Control, this will be really nice!

Suggestion: If you can add an option question to look directly that item on Satisfactory Helper, this will be really amazing, even more if this is possible to have that option sown on any Inventory or machine. If editing that menu is not really possible or too complicated, possibly adding a Keybind question to search that item on Satisfactory Helper automatically.

Mod Version: Satisfactory Helper 2.0.2 SML Version: 3.1.0 Game Build Version: Experimental (Build #CL153765), but this problem also occurs on the EA version CL152331

I will look into the first issue to see if it's possible. I think it is but i can't say for sure.

The suggestion sounds good on paper, but might be difficult if not impossible to implement in a way that looks good visually due to some mods having drastically different UI styles. With the keybind, do you mean that you open the "page" for the machine you're currently looking at in the world?

By keybind I mean when you mouseover an item (by example I have my mouse on a stack of concrete, I press on "U" by example and it will open the page of this item on Satisfactory Helper. Not sure if this will be easier or more complexe to do than changin the "Open in Codex menu".

No worry, I know what it is, something looking really simple can be a lot more difficult than what is look to fixed. ;)
