Or, perhaps, you're tired of half of the items you need automatically stacks into chests when you use the “Quick stack to nearby chests” feature. 

To prevent this from happening, so that the items you need always stay in their place, you can add the item to Favorites in Terraria. 

This is extremely easy to do, and in this article, I will tell you how to do it on any platform, as well as why this feature exists in Terraria at all.
