How do I move only part of the items at a time?

Question

For example I now have 14 turnips. I want to keep 5 of them in my chest. How can I achieve it? It seems that I always move all of them whenever I click.

Answer 1

Right-clicking (or pressing X on a keyboard or Xbox controller or □ on a PS4 controller) allows you to move or pick up single items from a stack. Holding shift while right-clicking moves/picks up half the items in a stack.

Answer 2

Turns out right-clicking does it... Didn't figure it out before.

Answer 3

Alternatively, if you are playing with a Xbox Controller, the X button has the same effect as right-clicking an item.
