Border assignment is handled through Legendary Tooltips' configuration, where you map items or item groups to specific frame styles. Eclectic Trove just supplies the frame artwork, so you edit the tooltip mod's settings to point an item at the border you want.

It replaces the default starting border and adds ten extra frames. These include shiny metals like gold, silver, and copper, magic and nature themes such as water, ice, smoke, flames, and vines, plus spooky or industrial looks like bones, iron machinery, and a Deep Dark style.
Which frame style should I use for which item type?
Match the theme to the item: metals for tools and ingots, nature frames for plants and food, and spooky or machinery frames for mob drops and tech items. There are no hard rules, so pick whatever reads clearly at a glance.
How does the automatic setup option work?
The simple version of the pack assigns borders for you so you don't have to configure anything manually. It applies frames across your items automatically, which is the fastest way to see the pack in action before customizing.
Can I control exactly which items get which borders?
Yes, but you have to edit the settings yourself rather than relying on the automatic setup. Manual configuration lets you assign specific frames to specific items or groups through Legendary Tooltips.
Legendary Tooltips.Why aren't my borders showing up?
The most common causes are Legendary Tooltips being missing or disabled, the Eclectic Trove pack not being enabled, or another resource pack overriding it. Check that the tooltip mod is loaded and that Eclectic Trove sits above conflicting packs in your resource pack order.

It can, but packs that also change tooltips or GUI textures may conflict and hide the borders. Put Eclectic Trove higher in the resource pack list so its frames take priority, and remove packs that overlap with tooltip art if problems persist.
Will Eclectic Trove hurt my performance?
It's only a resource pack that swaps tooltip border textures, so the impact is minimal. Any slowdown you notice is more likely from Legendary Tooltips rendering extra tooltip elements than from the border art itself.
