Hi!

When opening a chest to transfer items to inventory, please add the same helpful blinking of matching item in inventory of the item that mouse is hovering over in chest, just like in the crafting interface.

Thanks!

+1 never knew I wanted it until now.

This sounds like a great idea.

It would be helpful in situations like equipping oneself with various items from mixed chests ("malls"): "Do I have this item already in my cluttered inventory? Ah yes, it's blinking. Do I have need more of X? Yep, I do, no blinking."

Another suggestion to expand on the helpful item blinking: Make the item blink in the crafting menu, when hovering on the item in the inventory. This would aid or speed-up finding of the item if the player is looking to craft more of a specific item that he/she already has in inventory. So, item-blinking in inventory<->crafting sould work both ways.

Blinking also for the logistic tab. I searched lately about 1 minute until I found the item I already requested.
