How to Check Elytra Tooltips and Locate the Back Slot

Inspecting the Item Tooltip

When Elytra Slot Mod (also known as Curious Elytra) is installed, Elytra items gain compatibility indicators so you know where they can be placed in your inventory.

1. Open your survival player inventory screen.

2. Hover your mouse cursor over an Elytra item.

3. Read the item tooltip details. The tooltip displays information indicating that the wings can be equipped into the dedicated back or cape slot rather than being restricted to the normal chestplate spot.

Finding and Filling the Slot

1. Access the accessory inventory slots managed by Curios API or Trinkets API.

2. Locate the specific slot designated for cape or back gear.

3. Left-click your Elytra into this dedicated slot.

4. Keep your defensive chestplate equipped in your standard armor slot.

Check your character model preview in the inventory menu. You will see your chestplate protecting your torso with the wings visible behind your character, confirming that the back slot has accepted the Elytra and both items are functioning together.
