How to Preview Shulker Boxes, Bundles, and Ender Chests in Your Inventory

Viewing Storage Tooltips

Managing portable storage in Minecraft usually requires finding a clear block surface, placing down your container, and opening it just to see what is inside. Container Preview Mod eliminates this tedious process by displaying container contents directly inside standard hover tooltips.

Steps to Preview Items

1. Open your player inventory or open any regular chest in the world.

2. Move your mouse cursor over any supported storage item, such as a shulker box, bundle, ender chest, or custom modded backpack.

3. Observe the popup box that appears alongside your cursor.

The preview presents a clean grid layout mirroring the exact container inventory slots. You can immediately see all stored item stacks and their arrangements without placing the block on the ground. If a container is partially filled or completely empty, the tooltip displays blank slots for the unoccupied spaces, letting you confirm that a shulker box is clear before picking it up for a gathering trip.
