Scroll long tooltips with ease.

About this Mod
Tooltips in Minecraft can get long. Really long. Especially with mods that add detailed item descriptions, enchantment lists, or additional information. When a tooltip extends beyond the screen, you simply can't see everything.
Scrollable Tooltips fixes this by letting you scroll through any tooltip that exceeds a configurable height. Hold the scroll key (Left Ctrl by default) and use your mouse wheel to scroll up and down through the tooltip content. The tooltip appears in a fixed-size container, but now you can actually read everything.

- Configurable maximum tooltip height
- Configurable scroll speed
- Optional scroll indicators showing when more content exists above or below
- Customizable keybind (default: Left Ctrl) - can be changed in Controls settings or disabled entirely

Available for NeoForge, Forge, and Fabric.
