For instance, "20?" instead of "17". Above the lowest precision, your [[bookkeeper]] requires a meager office, and for every level of precision, will spend more time there updating the stock record. |

− | + | This inventory display has two modes. The first mode is a compacted view which lists objects by type and total number. It is handy to get a general idea of the number of goods you have available. The second mode is an exact view which lists each unique object or stack of objects in your fort. This display is useful for selecting individual items to [[forbid]], [[melt]] or [[dump]]. To toggle between either of the two modes, press {{key|Tab}}. | |
