How to split item stacks in Songs of Glimmerwick

Quick transfer in Version 1.07

For mouse and keyboard, Version 1.07 adds Shift + right-click for quick transfer and a tutorial for splitting and transferring. This transfer combination is separate from the older Shift split and Ctrl single-item modifiers. Check the destination and moved quantity; non-droppable items are rejected.

Take only the amount you need

1. Open your inventory and locate the stacked item you plan to sell.
2. Use Ctrl when you need a single item, or Shift to split the stack.
3. Check the quantity you are holding before you put anything into the well. Keep the remainder in your inventory.

The Steam player asked this because they wanted to sell without losing the whole stack. Eastshade gave the two keyboard modifiers but did not describe every mouse action or a quantity dialog, so follow the active demo prompt for those details.

Then sell the separated item

For the well, Eastshade’s separate answer says to left-click the item in the bottom hotbar and left-click the well. Right-click consumes or equips eligible items. If the whole stack remains selected, stop before clicking the well and return to the inventory. See the selling guide for the full interaction.

What this answer does not cover

The source establishes the keyboard modifiers in the September demo. It does not establish a controller shortcut or promise that the full release will keep the same bindings. Compare the current controls menu if your version differs.

Controller quick transfer is separate from splitting

Version 1.04b adds a quick-transfer button when using a controller. Check the current transfer prompt when moving items between inventories, then verify the moved quantity. The notes do not give its binding or say it splits a stack; do not treat this addition as a confirmed controller equivalent of Shift or Ctrl.
