Item Popups

Clicking on an item shows a bunch of information about the item, plus controls you can use to move the item, compare it with other items, and add tags or notes. Click on the name of the item to bring up the Armory page which gives even more details about the item.

Perks and Mods

Hover your mouse over, or press your finger on, a perk or mod to see what its effect is. One thing that may be counterintuitive is that you may see different bonuses from perks or mods depending on which item they're on. This isn't a bug - it's how stats work in Destiny. See this article for more info.

You can click on different perks to preview what their stat effect would be. Click "Apply Perks" to save the perk selections to your item.

If the perks on a weapon match a complete roll from a Wish List, then the perks that matched will have a thumbs-up icon.

Triage

On DIM Beta, there is an additional tab called Triage. This view helps you decide whether to keep an item by showing wish list notes, any loadouts the item is a part of, and information about similar items you have in your inventory. Click the scales to Compare with those items, or the magnifying glass to search for them.
