I'm quite busy with the crafting element of Fallout 4 and I want to pre-emptively start searching for components. When I'm in building mode and trying to place an item that I lack the required components for, I can press Q (PC) to tag these for search.

However (for example), I also want to tag Glue and Aluminium for search. I do not lack these components right now, but I might once I start using them.

Can I tag these for search (so they get highlighted in the world) without having run out of them?

You should put all your junk in your inventory then enter the junk section in your pipboy. Your can press C (PC) to switch into component view. From there you can tag or un-tag any material you have for search.
This might also work without loading the junk in your inventory first, directly from the workbench inventory, but I am not sure right now.

  • Can't do it from the workbench. Tried. Wish you could. – DCShannon Jan 5 '16 at 0:02
