Did you try holding Alt (X in Linux) and clicking on the item descriptions?
Did you try zooming in the camera and rotating?
If you have a controller you can use, there is an area search feature when holding the A button, which will bring up a list of all the intractable items around the character, which hopefully would allow you to pick up the items even if the tooltips will not.
If that doesn't help, you can email supportdos@larian.com, with a description and your latest save there. Each save is a folder in the '..\Documents\Larian Studios\Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition\PlayerProfiles\<ProfileName>\Savegames_patch' folder. In Windows Explorer you can zip a file or folder by right clicking on it/them and selecting 'Send To | Compressed (zipper) Folder'.
