For those that don't know, you can drop/eat/activate items (and spells) using keybinds if they are placed in an action-bar. Here is a quick 'how to' guide to save you some time if you are struggling with it...

Press Escape - Settings - Gameplay - Combat & Action Bar - Action Bar - Display Additional Action Bars (add action bar 1/2/3)

Drag item from inventory into action bar - right click - customise keybind

TEST - press the button assigned to that item in the action bar, it should drop or consume or activate the item.

Potential issue - the chat box is not set to 'ENTER before typing'
FIX - right-click 'all' (bottom left) click Toggle Always-On Chat.

Useful items or spells for the action-bar include:

* high alchemy
* food (eat)
* raw fish (drop)
* teleports
* disassemble
* prayer toggle

Feel free to include any of your own and I'll try to keep this list updated.

Being able to drop raw fish after fishing by holding a keyboard key is very useful.

How do you set the action bar to USE item instead of Dropping it.. Having to open crystal chests by clicking the key in the inventory and using it on the chest is back to RS Classic mechanics... There must be a solution for this.

Hi, the feature you're asking is currently not offered in the game.

Also thanks SlR for the thread ;)
Life is like a camera: Just focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives, and if things don't work out, take another shot !
