MC-59600Shift clicking does not work for all valid items for some slots
The bug
Shift clicking does not work for all valid items for some slots. For example some items are valid for a slot and you can place them with your cursor but you cannot shift click them in the slot.
Affected situations
- Shift clicking empty bucket into fuel slot of furnace (to have it filled with water)
- Shift clicking non-smeltable item into slot for item to smelt of furnace
Code analysis
Based on 1.11.2 decompiled using MCP 9.35 rc1
The affected containers override the method net.minecraft.inventory.Container.transferStackInSlot(EntityPlayer, int) to not use the method net.minecraft.inventory.Slot.isItemValid(ItemStack).
Created Issue:
Cannot use shift on buckets at furnace
Try to put empty buckets in a furnace with SHIFT.
It wont work.
When you try it with normal LEFT-CLICK, it works (this is one new feature, you have to place it in the fuel slot)I know they fixed it, that you can place 16 buckets there as this lead to a bug, but when you try to put a whole stack of dirt (for example) in an enchantment table with SHIFT it only places one there so this is probably a bug

Some slots only allow a single item to be placed. Shift-clicking behavior is not consistent across these slots.
| Slot | Items | Shift-clicking effect |
|---|---|---|
| Beacon | Diamonds, Emeralds, Iron Ingots, Gold Ingots | Stack moves between inventory and hotbar |
| Brewing Stand | Glass bottles | Stack moves between inventory and hotbar |
| Furnace fuel slot | Buckets | |
| Enchanting table | Any stackable item | A single item is moved into the slot, the rest of the stack is not moved (see |
| Armor head slot | Pumpkins, Skulls of any type | A single item is moved into the slot, the rest of the stack is moved between inventory and hotbar |
| Llama carpet slot | Carpet of any type | A single item is moved into the slot, the rest of the stack is moved between inventory and hotbar |

Hello why works this as intended? Could please one of the developers explain that to me?
Like I said, it is working with the enchantment table already, so why not with furnaces?
Hello?
Dear moderators or developers could you please explain that to me?
Mojang (Grum) has stated that it is intended. No further explanation is necessary, as it is their game to develop.
