Preview Paintings Before Placing Them

Seeing Painting Previews in Inventory

Paintings now display clear picture previews directly in your inventory slots instead of showing generic item icons. This lets you identify which painting you're holding without placing it on a wall first.

How to Use Painting Previews

When you have a painting in your inventory, the slot shows a miniature version of the actual artwork the painting will display. Different paintings show distinct visual designs, making it easy to organize them or find the one you want.

Practical Applications

  • Decorating efficiently: Grab the exact painting you want without trial-and-error placement
  • Organizing storage: Sort paintings by theme or color in chests by looking at their previews
  • Trading with other players: Instantly confirm you have the painting someone requested

Explorer Maps Too

Explorer maps also receive detailed previews in inventory slots, showing the terrain and structure location so you can see what you're about to explore before heading out. This helps you plan expeditions and decide which maps are worth pursuing.
