Hi, first time posting on github so pardon me if I sound too peasant. I've checked for similar requests but found none, sorry if it's a duplicate

Issue 1: adding a jewel to a build (jewel specifically because you add a lot of them and they all modify different stats) creates a lot of visual clutter with tooltips. "Adding this to socket 10 will do this and this" the more the sockets, the bigger the issue.
Eventually, a scroll bar appears at the bottom but:

sort of issue 2:
choosing a jewel from the unique list

immagine

or importing a pre crafted jewel

immagine

moves your bar to the far end meaning you have to scroll back left to finishing importing the item to your build. I can see how some people might want to inspect stats before adding the item but me in particular I'd like to just add it without scrolling back

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like a setting option or a check or a ctrl toggle to disable comparisons
Or that the default bar postion when importing wasn't to the far right.
Alternatively, keep always "pinned" the box with [add to build, edit, cancel, corrupt, ... ] to bypass the need to scroll

Research direction

Start by locating the jewel-selection and pre-crafted-jewel import entry points, then trace the tooltip comparison and horizontal scrollbar behavior shown in the issue. Done means the chosen interaction prevents or avoids the unwanted far-right scroll position while preserving access to the add, edit, cancel, and related controls.
