I have a very good blae farm that provides me with loads of XP. All my tools and armor have Mending on them. I read what mending does, and it says that it selects one item randomly. But, if I hold my sword, only my armor and the sword in holding receives the XP. And the pickaxes that are in my hotbar don't receive XP unless I quickly switch and hold them, which is really annoying. Is this a bug?

Thank you for your report!
However, this issue has been closed as Working as Intended.
XP should only go towards items with Mending that are actively held, or to a valid item in your armour slots, it won't affect other items in your hotbar or inventory.

This is how its supposed to work actually. It goes what you are holding then armor i believe but it wont do all the stuff in your hotbar. Only what you are holding or wearing.
