Vertical Scroll
This mod allows you to scroll through your inventory vertically, allowing for easier access of items while playing, without the need of opening your Inventory.

Vertical Scroll
Hold a modifier key and scroll to cycle items through the vertical column of your selected hotbar slot — no more opening your inventory just to swap what's in hand.
How it works
Each hotbar slot has a "column" — the three inventory slots directly above it. While holding the modifier key (default: Left Alt), scrolling rotates items through that column:
- Scroll up — brings the top item down to your hotbar
- Scroll down — brings the bottom item up to your hotbar
The hotbar selection stays put; only the items move.
HUD overlay
While the modifier key is held, a small overlay appears above your selected hotbar slot showing the three column slots with their items and stack counts. Arrows (▲ / ▼) indicate which end of the column will cycle to hand.
