A capture seats a player record, because the interface it loads is a player's
A capture never logs in, so `record_from_roster` answers `None` and the record stayed
empty — and the interface a capture loads is the one a player sees, where there is always
a player. That is the harness diverging from the client, not the other way round:
`Turtle_TransmogUI.lua:17` is `strlower(class)` over `local _, class = UnitClass("player")`
at main-chunk scope, so the nil killed the file and raised an error popup over the middle
of **every UI capture** — visible in the Interface options shot, and in nothing a player
has ever seen (his own session logs nine `Turtle_TransmogUI` lines and no such error).
Minimal and presence-only, the same record `manifest.rs` already seats for the offline
loader and for the same stated reason. Where `$WOW_CAPTURE_SAVED` names a character it is
that name, since the saved variables the capture just loaded are keyed on it.
Verified: `WOW_CAPTURE=ui-options` goes from one raised chain file to 0 runtime errors, and
the shot is a clean Interface page.

The map's arrow, its stratum, and a fade while you walk
Three of grom's 2026-11-05 reports about the built-in map, all measured. **The player arrow was the one piece of 1.12's map content left outside the canvas.** *"my player arrow goes to the wrong spot at any zoom level, this needs to be accurate all of the time."* `WorldMapFrame_OnLoad` builds it with `CreateWorldMapArrowFrame(WorldMapFrame)` (`WorldMapFrame.lua:19`), so its parent is the WINDOW, while `MapCanvas.lua` reparents everything it is anchored against into the canvas. `SetPoint`'s offsets are in the positioned frame's own units, so the offsets the stock update computes — `playerX * GetWidth()`, times `WorldMapDetailFrame:GetScale()`, which `SeatOnCanvas` pins at 1 because the zoom lives one level up on `ScrollContainer.Child` — are short by exactly the canvas zoom. Measured on a 1600x900 harness with the view centred on the player: exact at zoom 1, 250.5 x 501.0 screen px out at zoom 2. `WorldMapPlayer` — the invisible mouseover rect for the same spot, from the same two FrameXML lines — has always been right, because 1.12's XML nests it under `WorldMapButton`, which IS in the canvas. That makes it the oracle the test uses rather than a recomputed expectation. Not reparented like the detail frame and the button: the arrow is a size-less `Model` whose rect is the file's bounding box, so inside the canvas it would grow with the zoom, and no frame scale fixes the size without undoing the position — both read the same effective scale. The cost of staying outside is clipping, hence an explicit bounds test, which is a hide the stock code never needed because a map that cannot pan cannot put the player off-screen. That re-seat runs every frame the map is open, so nothing in it may force a layout resolve: the art's size is read off `WorldMapButton` (explicitly sized) rather than the detail frame (`SetAllPoints`, so derived), and the bounds test is arithmetic on the controller's own normalized scroll rather than a rect comparison — `GetLeft` on a dirty tree measures 30-370 us against 0.42 us settled, and a pan writes the scroll every frame. While in there: `InstantPanAndZoom` set `Child:SetScale` from its raw argument while `GetCanvasScale` clamps to the zoom ladder, so a scale past the ceiling drew the art at one scale with every extent, pan clamp and pin placement computed for another. It clamps first now, as the ease path already did by construction. **The window fell out of its own stratum every time it opened.** *"the map needs to be on a higher level as I can see my unitframe over it."* `WorldMapFrame.xml:5` declares `frameStrata="FULLSCREEN"`; measured FULLSCREEN with no addons and MEDIUM at level 0 with his, which is the bottom of the bucket pfUI's unit frames live in (`pfUI/api/unitframes.lua:413`). Five visible frames drew over the map rect. No addon does it. The new `$WOW_WATCH_STRATA=<FrameName>` instrument — every `SetFrameStrata` AND every `SetParent` on a named frame, with the Lua caller site — found one FULLSCREEN from the XML loader and then `WorldMapFrame:SetParent(UIParent)`, from the realm's own `WorldMapFrame_Minimize` (`WorldMapFrame.lua:183`) by way of `WorldMapFrame_OnEvent`, on the open path. A reparent forces the moved frame into its new parent's stratum (`0x76ab5a`, pinned off the binary by `script::tests::setparent`), and `UIParent` is MEDIUM. The reparent is right and stays; the window's own declared stratum is re-asserted on `SeatLevels` instead, which already re-seats the frame levels on every show for a cousin reason, plus hooks on Minimize/Maximize since the minimize runs while the window is up. After: FULLSCREEN, 0 frames over the map. **And the fade.** *"It would also be nice if the whole map window went to 80% transparentcy when the player is moving."* `mapFadeWhileMoving`, percent, 0 off, default 80, with a slider on the Options window's Interface page. Written as a FACTOR of whatever alpha the window already has, because that alpha belongs to somebody else — pfUI sets it from its own config and offers shift-wheel over the map — so the base is re-read whenever the live alpha is not the one this last wrote, which is another writer's signature; their setting is what gets faded, and closing the map restores it. `GetSpeed()` is the movement test: ours, always present, and 0 standing still by construction, off the same move flags the engine answers `IsSwimming` and `IsMounted` from. Also `$WOW_CAPTURE_EVAL`/`_SETUP` take a path ending in `.lua` as the chunk. A probe worth writing is longer than a shell argument survives, and a quoting error in a probe reads exactly like the thing being measured not being there. Verified: `the_player_arrow_tracks_the_hit_area_at_every_canvas_zoom` walks zoom 1, 1.5, 2.5 and 4 asserting the arrow and the hit area agree within a screen pixel, and that the canvas applied the zoom asked for. In a real session with his addons: FULLSCREEN and 0 visible frames over the map (was MEDIUM/0 and 5). Options census 140 -> 141 on both counts. benilla-app at its recorded baseline, benilla-ui 2128/0, clippy and the two lints clean.

Dismount and CancelShapeshiftForm, because our own pfUI port calls both
`pfUI/modules/autoshift.lua:45` answers `ERR_CANT_INTERACT_SHAPESHIFTED` with
if IsMounted() then Dismount() elseif GetShapeshiftFormID() ~= 0 then CancelShapeshiftForm() end
and grom's 2026-11-05 log carries `attempt to call global 'Dismount' (a nil value)` from
exactly there. That is a port written against verbs this client does not have, with a
comment claiming both "do their own engine-side aura scan and send the cancel packet
directly" — which was the design and not the state.
Both were on `compat/classic_api/state.rs`'s not-built list for a reason that turned out to
be answerable. Each needs the SPELL ID behind a state the engine reports as a flag
(`UNIT_FIELD_MOUNTDISPLAYID`) or an index (`SelfMovement::shapeshift_form`), because
`CMSG_CANCEL_AURA` carries an id and nothing else; and the player's aura list carries spell
ids and nothing about what each aura IS. The missing half was one derivation —
`EffectApplyAuraName` 78 (`SPELL_AURA_MOUNTED`) and 36 (`SPELL_AURA_MOD_SHAPESHIFT`), now
`SpellDisplay::mount_aura`/`shapeshift_aura` and two fields on `AuraState` beside
`channeled`, which the feed derives the same way from the same row it already reads.
Each verb is then the aura it names cancelled by id, which is what the reference's own
right-click on the buff does. Neither is gated on `aura::cancel_authorized`, unlike
`CancelPlayerBuff`: that gate is the reference's check inside THAT verb, this is not that
verb, the server makes its own decision about a cancel it is sent, and a mount whose aura
is not flagged `AFLAG_CANCELABLE` would otherwise be undismountable with no way to tell
why.
Allowlisted in `reference_surface` with the reason, as the four taint globals were: 1.12
has no verb for this because 1.12's player has the buff icon under the cursor, and an addon
reacting to an error message has neither an icon nor a cursor.
Verified: `dismount_and_cancel_form_each_cancel_their_own_aura_by_id` seats a plain buff, a
form and a mount in one list and asserts each verb finds its own id past the others, and
that neither fires with nothing to cancel. benilla-ui 2128/0, benilla-app at its recorded
baseline.

The MasterSoundEffects cut has to ride the play queue, not an observer a frame later
grom, 2026-11-05: *"softspoken was repeating zone readouts over and over unless I manually
removed them from queue."*
1.12 has no verb that stops a playing sound, so every voice-over addon uses the one
primitive there is: `SetCVar("MasterSoundEffects", 0)` then `..., 1)`, whose ENABLING edge
walks the live instance list and stops each node (`0x457500` -> `0x7a6570` -> `0x7a67a0`).
SoftSpoken's `SoundUtils:StopSound` is exactly those two lines, and its `SoundQueue` spends
them twice over: to duck the game's NPC dialogue while it speaks, and — this report — to
stop its OWN clip before replaying one, which `StopKeeping` does and comments on ("it
replays from the start when Advance next reaches it, since the client has no seek").
`bb9eb084` had to exempt `PlaySoundFile` audio from the cut because stopping it silenced
SoftSpoken outright: the addon spends the toggle and THEN plays its own file, so a cut that
reached files took the very line the toggle made room for. Its doc said what that cost —
*"if the overlapping-replay symptom returns, this is why"*. It returned.
The ordering was the thing, not the exemption. `cut_effects_on_reenable` is already
`.after(UiInput).before(drain_ui_sounds)`, which looks like the right gap and is not: the
flag is armed by the `CvarChanged` observer, `CvarChanged` goes out through
`commands.trigger`, and so the observer fires at a command flush a frame AFTER the Lua pass
that wrote it — by which time the drain has started the new clip. The consumer's ordering
cannot fix a producer that is a frame late.
So the cut now rides the sound queue, in call order with the plays:
* `SoundRequest::CutEffects`, pushed from `script::cvars::store` — the one write path
every `SetCVar`, `ConsoleExec` and engine write goes through, and the only place that
holds both the old value and the new, which an edge needs.
* `drain_ui_sounds` walks the queue in order and spends it where the addon wrote it:
stop, then play. Its catalog guard moved inside the loop, because the cut needs neither
a catalog nor assets and a stop dropped for want of one leaves the clip it meant to
stop playing under the next one.
* `cut_effects` is now shared by both paths with a `files` flag. In order with the
addon's calls it stops files, because the stop was written before the play; a frame
late, from the observer, it still spares them, because by then the only file alive is
the one the toggle made room for. Both answers were paid for by a report, and
`stopped_by_reenable`'s doc says which is which.
Verified: `the_master_sound_toggle_queues_its_cut_ahead_of_the_file_that_follows_it` writes
SoftSpoken's own two calls and asserts the queue is `[CutEffects, File(...)]` — the stop
keeping its place in front of the play — with no cut for the disabling edge and none for a
re-assert. `only_the_in_order_cut_reaches_an_addons_own_file` pins both answers.
benilla-ui 2128/0.

A NAME = nil line in an addon's saved file deletes the default it just set
grom, 2026-11-05: *"I'd also like to get advanced trade skill window2 working … I can't
even get number 2 to load right now."* His log has three runtime errors from it, all the
same shape:
AdvancedTradeSkillWindow2.lua:844: attempt to index global `ATSW_Profession'
AdvancedTradeSkillWindow2.lua:5931: attempt to index global `ATSW_Bags'
AdvancedTradeSkillWindow2.lua:5990: attempt to index global `ATSW_Bank'
All three are assigned `{}` at FILE SCOPE — lines 294, 5929 and 5986 — and the chunk ran:
the traceback carries `ATSW_OnEvent` (2504) calling `ATSW_ShowTrainingPoints` (4269), both
past the first of them. So the tables existed and were taken away, and
`benilla-config/saved/AdvancedTradeSkillWindow2.lua` says by what: 19 of its 24 declared
names stood at `NAME = nil`.
An addon's saved file is executed AFTER its own Lua (`0x51f4b5`, "after the files set
their defaults"), which is what makes a nil line destructive rather than merely useless —
in a fresh VM a global is already nil, so the line carries nothing and can only delete.
And once written it is self-sustaining: the nil it forces is what the next shutdown reads
back and writes again, so one bad write is permanent. The reference does not write them,
which is why no real SavedVariables file has ever had a `= nil` line in it.
Both sides, because the write fix alone still costs a session:
* `saved_variables_bytes_for` skips a nil global. The flat `RegisterForSave` file still
writes them — it is read BEFORE FrameXML, where a nil line and an absent one mean the
same thing — so the two paths split and `serialize_saved` takes the flag.
* `addon::drop_nil_assignments` strips `NAME = nil` lines a previous build already
wrote, matched narrowly against that addon's own `## SavedVariables` set, one
assignment per line, logged once per file. A player's hand-written `X = nil` of a name
the addon never declared is left alone.
It is not one addon: his install carried poisoned files for five — ATSW2 (20 lines),
BigWigs (4), ImprovedErrorFrame (2), MasterTradeSkills (1), SuperCleveRoidMacros (1).
Also the harness gap next door, which is why a capture could not have found this. A
capture answered `GetRealmName()` as "" and `UnitName("player")` as "Benilla" even with
`$WOW_CAPTURE_SAVED=C_Thun-Gromgosh` naming the character whose saved variables it had
just loaded — so `ATSW_Profession[realm][player] = nil` (line 296) raised `table index is
nil` and took 6,000 lines of chunk with it. That is a broken instrument that reads exactly
like the defect being measured, and it hit every addon keyed on `[realm][player]`.
`lifecycle.rs` now seats both from the capture identity, before the addon walk.
Verified: `a_never_assigned_saved_variable_writes_no_line_and_a_nil_line_is_dropped_on_load`
covers both halves. In a real session with his addons, all 24 of ATSW2's variables read as
tables at the first handler and `ATSW_ShowTrainingPoints()` — the function that raised
fifteen times — returns. Addon corpus unchanged at 86/87 clean loads, 86/87 UI probe.

securecallfunction, because modern libraries upvalue it at load time
The stitched map never said which zone you were looking at — from about zoom 3.5 to 10
there is no zone name anywhere on screen, which is the band a player pans around in.
Wiring up a port file that draws them took the addon corpus's "survived a UI probe" column
from 86/87 to 85/87, and the failure was not in the new file:
OpenMapClassic/Libs/CallbackHandler-1.0/CallbackHandler-1.0.lua:19:
attempt to call upvalue `securecallfunction' (a nil value)
Ace3's modern `CallbackHandler` takes `local securecallfunction = securecallfunction` on
its line 10 and calls it for **every handler of every event**, so the first callback any
addon shipping a post-2022 Ace fires raises. Nothing had fired one before, because
OpenMap's whole callback surface was dead for an unrelated reason until tonight.
1.12 has no taint, so there is nothing here to make secure — but the half of the contract
that is not about taint is the half library code leans on: it is a **protected** call, so
one raising handler does not stop the registry walking the rest. `securecallfunction`,
`securecall` (which also takes a global's name), `issecure` and `forceinsecure` go beside
`seterrorhandler` in `stdlib.rs`, with failures reaching `geterrorhandler()` exactly as the
reference's own secure dispatch does, so an addon bug still lands in the log rather than
being swallowed. Back to 86/87.
`the_rest_of_the_bare_globals` asserted these ABSENT, on the reasoning that the restricted
-execution system has no 1.12 counterpart and nothing here implements it. That was half
right; the half it missed is above, so the assertion is inverted with the measurement
written beside it — the same shape `hooksecurefunc` already has one line below.

The map's darkening was a grid of grey boxes, and a 12 px string was emptying the glyph sheet
grom, after a night's play: "make the map look a lot nicer, it would be really nice if the darkened areas were not just massive squares on the map, and should fit into the actual edges of the terrian if that makes sense, also I shouldn't see this dark squares on the fully zoomed out world map, also make it so the world map can't move out of the frame." **The darkening.** OpenMapClassic washed a never-visited zone through its land mask, and those masks are Voronoi-dilated by construction — "so that the forty of them tile each continent with no gap" — so for any zone that is not on a coast the mask *is* the rectangle. Measured at zoom 2.5 over the Eastern Kingdoms: a grid of flat grey boxes. Nothing could have been softened into a fix; it was the wrong mask. It was also drawn at full strength from every zoom, and at the whole-world view the zones' own art is not drawn at all, so the only thing on the world map was the fog's rectangles. A land mask for every map now comes from the client's own data. `bake_zone_land` unions a map's `WorldMapOverlay` alpha — the pieces the game reveals as you explore, cut to the shape of the ground — into one 256×256 mask; `overlay-land-index.py` writes the list the addon reads, because Lua cannot test for a file and a *missing* mask is dropped by the engine so the whole rectangle draws, which is the defect itself. 53 maps have overlays (the 40 stock zones, Hyjal, Alterac Valley and 11 of the realm's own); 76 have none and keep a wide feather. `clip-zone-masks-to-coast.py` then takes the open sea off the dilated sheet masks — the same dilation was painting parchment out on the ocean — by closing the continent's own land by 500 yards (above the 466-yard inradius of the widest enclosed gap, so seams fill and the sea does not) and keeping a 300-yard coastal margin. Twelve landlocked zones lose 0.0%; Darkshore loses 53%, all of it water. `tga.rs` gains the writer that needed, `script::uimap` and `ui_world_map::build_catalog` become public so an example can reach the uiMapID graph, and `WorldMapUiData` grows the accessor so the VM push and an outside caller cannot build different lists. **The glyph sheet.** His four-minute session reset it 27 times, each dropping every cached glyph. The producer is Atlas-CFM's cursor coordinate readout: a 12 px FontString on `WorldMapDetailFrame`, rewritten every frame, and the canvas zooms by scaling that frame — 140 device px a digit at a canvas scale of 6.9. Nothing about the addon is wrong, so the fix is ours: `raster_ppem` rasterizes exactly up to 64 device px and snaps to a third-octave ladder above it, with `cell()` scaling the cached bitmap and metrics left keyed on the true ppem, so advances and `GetStringWidth` are bit-for-bit unchanged. Same 1,200-frame reproduction: 3 resets and 6,623 rasters before, **0 and 1,424** after, with occupancy climbing once to 30% and stopping. A reset no longer clears the metric cache either, and `note_loud_cell` names the string that asked for an outsized cell. **Four more from the same log.** `SetOwner`'s unknown-anchor line named a forwarding wrapper rather than the addon that chose the anchor (two `debugstack` frames now); the nine reference anchor names are written down with the binary evidence, because `ANCHOR_TOP` is not one of them. The `CreateFrame(kind, …, inherits=<other kind>)` warning fired in both directions and only one drops content — `kind_subsumes` makes it directional, and `type_chain` moves out of `install` so `IsObjectType` and the loader read one table. A string that is not UTF-8 now names the Lua line that cut it, and both glyph warnings quote the string the character came out of. The three world-map CVars stay unregistered, with the argument written down beside `REGISTERED` so it is not re-litigated from the warning. **`World.zmp`.** The realm's `WorldMapArea` carries a third `areaID == 0` row, `694 World`, with an all-zero rect; the reference ships no bitmap for it and neither the graph nor the realm's own `Overrides.lua` lets it reach a player. The miss is a `debug!` line now, and the `warn!` is kept for a continent that *has* a rectangle and is missing its bitmap.

Four counts the 2026-11-04 client update moved
The realm rewrote `patch-4.mpq` and `patch-5.mpq` again (19:28 local). Everything
structural held — 152 toc rows with the same six unnamed, `Bindings.xml` still 235/229
live, DBC field counts unchanged everywhere, `WorldMapArea`/`Map`/`AreaTable`/
`WorldMapOverlay` byte-identical where our tests pin them, and the addon census identical
on every column. The content is nine mount spells (`65417-65425`, the Dragonhawks and the
Blood Ring pair) with their ten `CreatureDisplayInfo` rows, and every model and texture
variation they name resolves in the chain.
Four tests pinned counts that moved with them, and all four are examples rather than
rules, so each is re-recorded and the rule beside it left alone:
* `Spell` 28046 → 28055 rows, and the `SpellFamilyName` histogram's family 0 22387 →
22396 — all nine new spells carry family 0, so the eleven-family set, the three junk
keys, the multi-bit count and `max_bit` 53 are all untouched.
* `CreatureDisplayInfo` 13452 → 13462, and the blood-tier array 12516 → 12526. The
companion assertion still describes the data: exactly one display (185, `modelId` 0)
has no `CreatureModelData` row, so `tiers.sum() == len - 1` holds.

The map arrow pointed the wrong way wherever the player was not
`UpdateWorldMapArrowFrames` (`0x4a8d10`, `0x4a7c20`) copies the camera-tracked object's facing to both arrows and leaves them alone when there is no such object. Ours tested "is there a player" with `WorldMapState::player_uv.is_some()` — a different question, because that field is `GetPlayerMapPosition` on the **displayed** map. A view sitting on a continent, on another zone, or on an addon's stitched world answers `None` on every frame, so the arrow kept the heading it had when the window last sat on the player's own zone: the right place, pointing the wrong way. `player_facing_seen` is the real test, set the first time the feed pushes a facing — the feed runs only where there is a player, and the facing it pushes is unconditional. The existing test asserted the old behaviour on its second leg; that leg now asserts the heading following off the displayed map, and a new test holds the other half (before any feed, the login and loading screens, the arrow is left alone). `scripts/soften-zone-masks.py` is for the OpenMapClassic port rather than the client: its per-zone land masks are binary, so every map sheet ends on a crisp line against a differently-lit neighbour. It writes a softened copy — dilate, blur, times a rect ramp that reaches zero inside the sheet's own torn parchment border, which is the half that is not obvious. `docs/ADDON_COMPAT.md` writes up this round's five: the flashing arrow (two writers on one frame, measured `h h S h h S`), why correcting after 1.12 rather than suppressing it cost a full UI conversion every frame, pfQuest's pins being both behind the map and only ever for one zone, the softened masks, and the cities. Gates: fmt 0, clippy 0, benilla-ui 2121 pass / 0 fail, benilla-app 4233 pass / 12 fail (the recorded data-golden baseline). Corpus 86/87 load clean, 86/87 survive a session start and a UI probe, 0 raised on hover, click or drag — unchanged.

Two map verbs disagreed about where the player was
`UnitState::position` was fed from a streamed object's `Transform` read raw, and a
`Transform` is Bevy's frame (`wow_to_bevy` is `(-y, z, -x)`): the two map axes arrived
swapped and negated and the third was the player's height. Three compat verbs answer
from that field — SuperWoW's `UnitPosition`, UnitXP_SP3's `getUnitPosition`, and
`C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition` — while 1.12's own `GetPlayerMapPosition` reads the
per-frame world-map feed, which converts. So the client sat in a state no real client
can be in: the 1.12 verb placing the arrow and the modern verb saying the player was on
no map at all.
Against a zone's few-thousand-yard rect the height lands outside 0..1, so the modern
verb answered nil — which is OpenMapClassic's "You aren't on the world map here" and
`Map/StockArrow.lua` declining to place anything, leaving 1.12's wrong placement
standing. Against a continent's sixteen thousand it lands inside, and answers a
plausible wrong fraction. Both of grom's reports, one cause. Distance was the one read
this never broke, the transform being rigid.
Measured in a capture with the player at Northshire: `UnitPosition` now answers
(-8980, -160, 110), `C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition(1415)` and the 1.12 verb agree to seven
places, Elwynn answers a fraction and Dun Morogh correctly answers nil; and with the
view centred on the player's own world point the arrow lands on the container's centre
to a third of a pixel.
A capture could not have shown any of this — its synthetic player carried no position,
so every reader answered nil there. `demo_unit_feed` now publishes the capture's own
parking spot, at the cost of one ambiguous pair written up at the ceiling.
Also here, from the same play test:
* A canvas zoom now tells the two 1.12 frames their scale moved, with their own scale,
which is the only way a 1.12 map addon can hear it. pfQuest counter-scales its pins
inside that hook; the canvas scales its child, so the hook never fired and the pins
kept the size they were built at. Measured 0 -> 24 `pfMap.ResizeNodes` over one
glide from 8x to 30x.
* `CLASSIC_API_VERSION` says 1.18.0, at grom's ask. The DLL beside the real client
reads 1.15.0.0 and nothing in his folder gates above pfUI's 11400 nag threshold, so
the trade is the one that constant has always named and the floor is unchanged.
The addon-side half is in `Addon_Ports/openmap_port`: `unexploredMode` defaults to
`reveal`, with the one-shot migration this addon already uses for the kind. A 1.12 zone
sheet is blank parchment and every scrap of terrain is an overlay the client hands out
only where explored, while a city sheet has no overlays at all — which is the whole of
"it will only paint the actual map art for cities".

The map's mouse surface shrank with the zoom, and four things fell through the hole
The canvas gave the map no mouse surface of its own, on the reasoning that 1.12's
`WorldMapButton` covers the same rect and sits above it. The button is pinned INSIDE the canvas
child, so it scales with it: measured at the world view with OpenMapClassic driving, at grom's
own 2560x1440, a 23x16 px button inside a 701x468 px window. Every press on the other 99%
reached the next frame that takes the mouse — `WorldMapFrame`, which pfUI makes a
`RegisterForDrag("LeftButton")` handle for the whole window. So dragging the map moved the
window, and a click never reached `ProcessCanvasClickHandlers`, which is the only way a map pin
is ever dropped.
The container takes the mouse and the wheel now and drives the same controller. The frame level
mattered as much: the hit sweep probes one `(strata, level)` plane in link order and a parent is
linked before its children (`0x764aa0`), so a container tied with `WorldMapFrame` still lost
every press to its own parent. It is re-seated to `map:GetFrameLevel() + 1` on every show,
because the window is level 0 while the canvas builds and level 1 once `ShowUIPanel` has raised
it.
With the click arriving, a pin still stored nothing: `Map/Pins.lua:57` trims the note with
`strtrim`, which was deliberately absent. `script/stdlib.rs` still refuses it on the 1.12
surface, for the reason written there; this build claims ClassicAPI, whose client does have it,
so it lands in `compat/classic_api/string_trim.rs` with both spellings. Eight bare call sites in
the corpus, one of them in pfUI's search box on every keystroke.
`SCALE_RATE` 10 -> 24. A 0.7 s half-life was tolerable only while a wheel notch could not
accumulate; now that they add up the glide is what you feel ("scrolls past where I stop
scrolling").
`BenillaMapTextures(uiMapID)` is `GetExploredMapTextures` without the explored filter. Reveal
mode draws unexplored overlays out of a retail FileDataID table this client resolves none of —
captured with the fog default and with reveal, the same view came back pixel-identical, 0 by
`compare -metric AE`. The overlays were never missing, only their names: `Map/RevealFromClient.lua`
in `Addon_Ports/openmap_port` rebuilds the table from this, with paths.
Also in the port, not here: the arrow is placed through OpenMap's own coordinates, because
1.12 measures `GetPlayerMapPosition` against Blizzard's world and continent art and the stitched
map is a different projection.

A wheel notch stepped from the easing scale, so notches did not accumulate
`ZoomIn`/`ZoomOut` walked the zoom ladder from `GetCanvasScale()` — the live value the smooth zoom is still easing — so the notch after the first re-read a scale that had barely moved, found the same rung still under it, and re-set the target it already had. The ease closes about 63% of the gap a second, which is slow enough that a player never gets a second rung. Driven at grom's own 2560x1440 with his addons loaded, over OpenMapClassic's 27-step ladder (0.0330 .. 2.3734): four wheel-down notches at the map's centre all set target 0.9030 — one rung — and two more at the far right set nothing. That is his "it will only scroll very little out … and will only very little scroll in period". `GetZoomStepScale()` steps from `targetScale` instead, so notches accumulate and either end of a long ladder is reachable. The same measurement rules out the position dependence he saw: the wheel's target over the centre and 19 px from the right edge is `WorldMapButton` both times, because `wheel_target` walks past frames that take no wheel the way `0x7664f0` does. `docs/ADDON_COMPAT.md` also records the two addon-side causes of "I can't see any buttons but I can use them", both fixed in `Addon_Ports/` rather than here: OpenMapClassic's rail tabs are never dressed because `mod.FaceSideTab` ships in a file the release omits, and the OpenMap tab's own icon is absent from this patch chain. And pfQuest's minimap icons now fade with the minimap. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SgstFWtn1RxEJ5kVrpgYwn |

Find the frame that was eating every map click, and the realm LibStub behind it
A real pointer at the middle of the world map reached nothing: a hook on
`WorldMapButton`'s `OnMouseDown` counted 0 hits from a real click although the
button was shown, mouse-enabled and held the point. A Lua walk of every visible
mouse-enabled frame containing that point answered with exactly one frame, and
it was an unnamed 700x500 `FULLSCREEN_DIALOG` child of `UIParent` — AceGUI's
default container, carrying the title "SoftSpoken Stories" and no content. The
blank login popup grom has reported twice was parked over the centre of the
screen swallowing the map's clicks. One frame, both defects.
`hit_test_name` had been printing `<nothing>` there all along: it answers `None`
for an unnamed frame. Ask what holds the point, not what it is called.
The window is left shown because `AceGUI:Create` shows a container on acquire
and `self.frame:Hide()` is the last line of a `pcall`ed build step, so anything
raising in between leaves it up. The recorded reason was
`AceGUI-3.0.lua:282: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'argc'`, and the
cause is the realm's own
`Interface\FrameXML\AIO\Dep_LibWindow-1.1\LibStub.lua`, loaded by its
`FrameXML.toc:162` before any addon, which hardcodes `minor = 2` where upstream
parses it — 1.12's Lua 5.0 has no `strmatch`. Every library therefore registers
as minor 2 and the first copy loaded keeps it, while `RegisterWidgetType` still
upgrades individual widgets by their real version: an Ace3v core
(`Fire(self,name,argc,…)`) hosting modern widgets (`Fire(self,name,…)`), whose
first payload value lands in `argc`.
Client side, one real divergence came out of it: `string.split` answered a table,
because BigWigs' `Plugins/SpellRequests.lua` defines `function string:split` and
never calls it, while Ace3's `AceConfigDialog-3.0` and `TreeGroup` both spell
`("\001"):split(uniquevalue)`. `string.split` is now `strsplit` — same function,
same argument order — in the beyond-1.12 string family, with a test pinning the
Ace3 call shape and the arity.
Also: `Step::Drag` moved the cursor eight times without advancing a frame, and a
canvas pans from its `OnUpdate`. It now ticks per move, and the same drag walks
0.5000,0.5000 -> 0.7582,0.3073 -> 0.5080,0.5161 — exactly what driving
`OnMouseDown` by hand produced. The frame between the moves is the gesture.
Four worth recording as dead ends, each of which looked like a client bug: a
verbatim replica of the LibStub file registers correctly; `strfind(34,"(%d+)")`
coerces the number and captures `34` as the reference does; the live function's
`getfenv` is `_G` with every global correct; and a known-good `NewLibrary`
installed on the live table stores the right value. `debug` is absent here, so
the way to ask a Lua function where it came from is to make it raise.
Addon-side edits (gitignored live copies, mirrored to Addon_Ports): the `Fire`
arity shim in both Ace3v AceGUI copies, `issecretvalue` guarded in
OpenMapClassic's vendored Heading widget the way its own Core.lua guards it, and
BigWigs' unused `string:split` removed.
Verified: SoftSpoken `initializationErrors` 0 and `shown=0` at login, nothing
over the map, `--drag` pans it, all three registered options tables open clean
(MasterTradeSkills 4 labels, OpenMapClassic 83, SpokenQuests 6), tabs switch
pages with no raise, session errors 0. fmt and clippy clean; benilla-ui 2119
pass; benilla-app 12 failures, the recorded pre-existing data-golden baseline.

ui: a Slider answers SetEnabled, because OpenMap's options tab called it unguarded
Rendering a panel is not the same as it working. OpenMap's options menu opens 500x500 with 104 frames and 49 placed labels, and its Look tab died on click: Map/Panel.lua:1084, attempt to call method SetEnabled (a nil value) -- so a third of its options was unreachable. SetEnabled is already composed here for Button, CheckButton, EditBox and LootButton, and was deliberately withheld from a Slider, because addons duck-type on the enabled family to tell a control from a bar. What they duck-type on is the TRIO (if widget.IsEnabled then), that is what tests/slider.rs pins, and the trio is still absent; SetEnabled is beyond 1.12 by construction, so a Slider answering it invents no 1.12 behaviour. OpenMapClassic calls it unguarded on every options row with a condition, which is what settles it. On a Slider it writes the mouse -- input refused, art not greyed, which 1.12 has no slot for; the caller dims it itself on the next line. The argument goes through GetBoolOrDefault, not Lua truthiness, because DoiteAuras writes SetEnabled(ok and 1 or 0) and 0 is truthy in Lua. Also records a count that was wrong until checked: grep says 39 calls across five addons, but AdvancedTradeSkillWindow2 and SoftSpoken define their own SetEnabled and SoftSpoken's slider row is fully guarded. The real unguarded widget calls are OpenMap's three and DoiteAuras' two -- and SoftSpoken's blank settings page is NOT this, and is still open.

capture: a setup slot, for the moment before the scene ages
$WOW_CAPTURE_SETUP runs a chunk at the first aging frame -- early enough to change a setting or create a frame and still have the scene settle around it. $WOW_CAPTURE_EVAL keeps the shutter, where a read and the pixels it explains come from the same frame; anything created there is a frame too late to be in the image. The deep-zoom map shot needed it. OpenMapClassic resolves minimap tiles by FileDataID by default and this client has none, so its own status reports "loaded YES=0 NO=8"; it already carries a path mode for exactly that, asking for textures\Minimap\<folder>\map<col>_<row>, of which this install ships 10,884. Switching to it raised, because S.ResetMinimapTiles reads lodPieces/lodPool sixteen lines before they are declared and so bound them to nil globals -- an upstream bug, and the only two callers are the two switches that reach the mode. Port edits mirrored to Addon_Ports/openmap_port/: the declaration moved above its use, and the tile mode defaulted to the one that can work here. Captured at zoom 40: the minimap's terrain draws through the map. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SgstFWtn1RxEJ5kVrpgYwn |

blp: a short colour map is a sliver tile, not a corrupt file
Seven of the client's own Interface\WorldMap textures never decoded. They are the last column or row of an exploration overlay -- a few pixels wide, a handful of colours -- so they store a SHORT BGRA palette and end: RuinsOfThaurissan4.blp is 404 bytes in all, LakeEverstill6.blp is 276. The parser sliced the nominal 256 entries and refused anything shorter. A refused decode is a quad that draws nothing, and until this week a texture that drew nothing also said nothing, so the symptom was a hole in a zone's revealed art -- indistinguishable from not having explored it. It surfaced only once the stitched world's geometry was right and the render reached those tiles. The palette is now as much of it as the file has, and an index past the end is transparent black, which is what an unused index means. every_world_map_texture_in_the_chain_decodes walks the folder: 3553 textures, 7 failures before, 0 after, and it fails on the old decoder.

map: a map's rect on another map describes art, not a click box
C_Map.GetMapRectOnMap answered, for a continent on the world sheet, the world-level CLICK box -- continent_sheet_rect over the WorldMapContinent tile bounds, which trace the landmass. That is the reference's own 0x4a5d00 and right for what 1.12 uses it for; the two boxes are disjoint so a world-level click can tell the continents apart. It is the wrong answer for art. A continent's map is a 1002x668 sheet with the land inside it and ocean around, so its art rect is 792x528 px on the world where its click box is 300x564. Every 1.12 WorldMapArea rect is 3:2, because every sheet is, and the click box is 0.355 of that. A zone's rect on its continent was already a yard un-lerp and correct, so the error entered once and multiplied through every zone: Dun Morogh landed 42x79 where its art is 1002x668. A stitched world built on that draws each zone a third as wide as it should be, which is why the canvas was grey between the zoom steps. map_proj::continent_art_rect carries the continent's own WorldMapArea rect through world_uv, the projection a position on it already takes. The view keeps both rects; the Era map graph publishes the art one. Measured after: EK, Kalimdor, Dun Morogh and Elwynn all 1.500. Rendered: the zone view stitches its neighbours in, zoom 3 is the continent with its zones, zoom 1 is the world sheet. The stock 1.12 map is unchanged. Three instruments came with it and are kept: $WOW_CAPTURE_EVAL, a chunk run in a capture's VM at the shutter; $WOW_CAPTURE_EXPLORED, so a stitched map's fog can be ruled out in one run; and a named warning for a UI texture that is not in the chain, which is what refuted the other hypothesis -- a grep said the addon's art was missing, a real render asked for zero missing files.

map: clamp the canvas onto whatever zoom ladder is in force
CreateZoomLevels is the extension point a canvas addon replaces wholesale, and OnLoad seeds a scale (1) before any addon has run. OpenMapClassic's ladder is 27 steps from 0.0125 to 0.899 -- its whole range below this file's own 1, because its stitched world is reached by zooming out past a single zone -- so the canvas sat above its own ceiling, and ZoomIn, which walks the ladder by value, found no step at all above it. ClampZoomToLevels is called from GetCanvasScale rather than from CreateZoomLevels, because CreateZoomLevels is exactly the function the addon will not have. Also records where OpenMapClassic stands, measured: 808 textures in the canvas subtree, 166 placed, spanning ~4600x3270 units of a 1002x668 canvas, with a ladder floor implying a world ~80000 units wide. The Era map tree under it answers correctly; GetMapArtLayers answering one constant for every map is the thread to pull next.

capture: a shot taken of a player's config must not write it back
`$WOW_CAPTURE_SAVED` points the saved-variable READS at a real player's configuration so a capture reproduces their interface. The writes went to the same place, so taking the shot overwrote the configuration it was taken to study -- with a fixture character's state, since a capture logs in as nobody. Three of grom's files came back changed from one run, his pfUI chat scrollback among them. The shutdown tail returns before all four writes under $WOW_CAPTURE. Verified by md5 across a run: zero files touched, zero "wrote" lines. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SgstFWtn1RxEJ5kVrpgYwn |

ui: a Slider's thumb had no rect, so no scrollbar could be skinned or seen
"Half of the info on the right is out of the frame" was a scroll frame with 699 of content in a 451 window, a scroll range of 228, and a scrollbar with nothing on it. The thumb's rect was only ever computed inside the draw pass and never published: the region sweep skips anchor-less regions and a thumb is anchor-less by construction, because its slider places it. That is invisible until something anchors to the thumb, and pfUI does -- SkinScrollbar clears the stock knob and hangs its own off the thumb's two corners, so every pfUI-skinned scrollbar in the interface was a bare track, which is a scroll frame that silently cannot be scrolled. The thumb is on the layout roster now, survives the unanchored prune, and carries its slider's (vertical, fraction) in its node hash -- without the last one a named touch moved no hash and seeded nothing, which WOW_LAYOUT_VERIFY caught as an incremental pass disagreeing with a full derivation. The draw pass keeps computing its own rect: extract takes &self and cannot resolve, so a SetValue with no resolve behind it still has to draw where the value now is. map: the window has two layouts and the canvas only knew the maximized one Pressing maximize left the art a 1002x668 patch in a full-screen window and minimize could not put it back, because the container was anchored once at build to WorldMapPositioningGuide TOP -502,-69 -- 1.12's maximized anchor against a fixed 1024x768 guide. Read as insets instead (15/4/33/20 windowed, 10/12/69/31 maximized) the same numbers reproduce 1.12 at 1.12's sizes and fit any other window, which is also the left-edge bleed: -502 against a guide stretched to pfUI's 1017-wide window starts the art 6.5 px in, not 10. The zoom ladder's floor follows: it was the constant 1, true only while the container was the art's own size, and is the measured fit now. A view outside a rebuilt ladder is pulled onto its nearest end, since ZoomIn and ZoomOut walk it by value -- OpenMapClassic's whole ladder sits below ours.

map: 1002x668 is a contract, and the canvas counted the windowed scale twice
Every 1.12 map addon places its art in absolute pixels against WorldMapDetailFrame's 1002x668 — pfUI's reveal does it one SetPoint per tile — so that size is a contract, not a size. 1.12's windowed mode puts WORLDMAP_WINDOWED_SCALE (0.7) on the frame and on WorldMapButton; under the canvas the container already carries the window, so that scale was a second authority on the same rect and, with the frame SetAllPoints to the canvas, came back as unit size: 1002 / 0.7 = 1431. Everything absolute inside it landed at 0.700 of where it belonged, which is grom's screenshot drawing Coldridge Valley twice, and the mouse surface kept its XML 1002x668 beside 1431 units of art, so clicks read 70% of the map. SeatOnCanvas makes the canvas the only authority: both frames to scale 1, the frame filling the canvas, the button given the art's rect — explicitly sized, because pfUI reads WorldMapButton:GetSize() to size the whole map window. Re-run after Minimize/Maximize and on every canvas resize. Rescaling the children this file knows the names of could never have fixed it; the children it does not know the names of are the point. saved-variables.lua now goes through saved_home, so a capture with $WOW_CAPTURE_SAVED opens the player's windowed map — the only mode the bug exists in, and the reason neither harness had ever seen it.

map: the art was scaled by the canvas while living in the detail frame
Grom's report was "textures are not where they should be", and still wrong with OpenMapClassic switched off — which is what made it ours rather than the addon's. His own session log had both states 1.4 s apart, same map, same frame: detail 1431x954 with tiles 366x366 (correct, 1431/1002 = 1.428), then the same frame with tiles back at the XML's raw 256x256. `ScaleDetailArt` was being handed the CANVAS's size by `OnCanvasSizeChanged`, on the assumption that the detail frame is `SetAllPoints` to the canvas. 1.12's own windowed mode breaks that: `WorldMapFrame_Minimize` puts `WORLDMAP_WINDOWED_SCALE` (0.7) on `WorldMapDetailFrame` and `WorldMapButton` and insets the frame to TOPLEFT 15,-33, so the same screen area is a different number of units in each — his trace reads `detail 1431x954 scale 0.56` inside `WorldMapCanvas 1002x668 scale 0.80`. Scaled by the canvas's number every tile came out 1.43x too small: the art covered 1024x768 of a 1431x954 frame, the rest bare parchment, and the exploration overlays scaled to match landed nowhere near their terrain. The detail frame's own size is the authority, since the tiles are its children. `GetLeft()` first to settle the layout, because that size is derived and an unforced read answers the size from before the last change; the caller's w,h stay as the fallback for what cannot be measured. Reproduced and controlled in the harness with the windowed scale applied as the stock code applies it: tile 362 where 362 is wanted, against the control's 256 — the number his log recorded. Two earlier attempts are written up in docs/ADDON_COMPAT.md as dead ends, because both looked right: caching the canvas size prefers the wrong quantity, and converting it by the effective-scale ratio gives 366 against a true 362, since Minimize also insets the frame. `$WOW_CAPTURE_SAVED` now reaches the enable-state file too, so a capture reproduces which addons the player has turned off — without which "I turned it off and it is still wrong" cannot be answered offline at all.

ui: SetClipsChildren, the verb an addon asked for by name and was refused in silence
Era's map canvas is built on one verb this client did not have. Its `ScrollContainer` is a plain Frame with `SetClipsChildren(true)`, and everything below it is cropped to that rect. `assets/ui/MapCanvas.lua` substituted a real ScrollFrame, because this client crops a ScrollFrame's scroll child and every descendant of it — which covers the canvas and nothing parented to the container beside it. On Era that distinction does not exist, so an addon has no reason to respect it. OpenMapClassic parents its pin layer exactly there and asks for the verb by name, behind an `if` (`Map/Stitch.lua:1070`), so the absence was not a raise. Measured on grom's own config with the map open: the container sits at L=1151 R=2153 and its seventeen direct children span L=-765 R=2153 — about 1900 units off the left edge, cropped by nothing. Implemented as a frame flag with `SetClipsChildren`/`DoesClipChildren` and the `clipChildren` XML attribute; `effective_clip` now intersects the rect of every ancestor that sets it alongside the ScrollFrame rule, so the two nest and compose. An ancestor rather than the frame itself: the verb clips a frame's children, and stock art overhangs its own frame on purpose. `MapCanvas.lua` sets it on the container too, so a layer parked there is cropped whether or not its addon thought to ask. Not claimed as the whole of grom's map report: the screenshot behind it has not been reproduced offline, because a capture's view is not the view his session was in. This is the part that was provably drawing uncropped. Also here, both from the same play-test: - `C_Spell.CancelSpellByID` answered with `SpellStopCasting` only. pfUI's buff bar cancels with it on a right click where 1.12's calls `CancelPlayerBuff`, so with nothing in flight the click did nothing and said nothing — grom had never been able to right-click a buff off on this client. It now finds the id among the player's own auras and queues it on the same CMSG_CANCEL_AURA path, behind the same `cancel_authorized` gate, and falls through to the cast only when there is no such aura. - `$WOW_CAPTURE_SAVED=<Realm>-<Character>` points a capture at a player's own saved variables. A capture is hermetic by design, but with addons and no saved variables it renders an interface nobody is configured to be looking at — which is why the world map came out correct in a capture while being wrong on his screen. It doubles as the identity because a capture never logs in and `pfUI_config` is SavedVariablesPerCharacter.

auras: the player's first buff of a session was swallowed as a first-time diff
DoiteAuras reads the whole aura block once at PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD and from then on keeps its
table purely from nampower's four self-aura events (`Modules/DoitePlayerAuras.lua:403-490`;
`UpdateAuras` is called nowhere else). The arrival loop here seeds a unit's memory and fires
nothing, which is right for a unit streamed in mid-aura — but it only ever seeded the harmful
half, while the comment above it claimed it seeded the player's helpful half too ("without this
its first real edge would be swallowed as a first-time diff, which is one lost BUFF_ADDED_SELF
per login"). The guid was destructured away as `_guid` and `own_buffs_seeded` was set nowhere but
in the edge loop.
So the player's first buff edge of every session reported nothing. That does not heal: a later
cast of a buff that is still running refreshes its slot with the same spell id, which is not an
edge this watch sees at all, so nothing reports the aura again until it drops completely. A
warrior's Battle Shout, re-cast while it still has a minute to run, never drops — grom's rule for
it read "missing" with the buff plainly up, all session.
Every other link was measured clean first: `GetUnitField("player", "aura")` answers a table, the
arg vector matches what the handler reads (arg3 spell id, arg4 stacks, arg6 raw slot, arg7 state),
and all seven ranks of Battle Shout resolve through both `GetSpellRecField(id, "name")` and
`GetSpellNameAndRankForId`.
The pin asserts both halves — the first buff is an add, and a refresh is not an edge — and its
control is worth noting: with the seed removed the first buff reports `[]`, not a wrong value,
which is why no session log ever named this.

map: the Continent and Zone pickers were blank on the first map of a session
The realm's `WorldMapFrame.xml` fills them from exactly one place: the Zone dropdown's `<OnEvent>` on `WORLD_MAP_UPDATE` (:321), which re-runs both pickers' initialisers and then the two `WorldMap_Update*DropDownText` functions. That dropdown registers the event in its own `<OnShow>` (:318 — the realm commented the `OnLoad` out and moved it there), while `WorldMapFrame`'s own `<OnShow>` fires it through `SetMapToCurrentZone()` (:711), and a parent's OnShow runs before its children's. So the inline event landed in a gap where its only listener did not exist yet. Measured through the addon harness: the Zone dropdown answers `IsEventRegistered` nil before the open and 1 immediately after, and the pickers come up blank on the first map and correct on the second — which is what grom's recording shows, blank over Dun Morogh and filled over Elwynn later in the same clip. `SetMapToCurrentZone` now queues a second `WORLD_MAP_UPDATE` on the deferred lane as well as firing the inline one. The inline fire stays: it is what repaints the detail tiles inside the OnShow rather than a frame later (the world-map flash). Only this verb doubles up, and only this verb needs to — `SetMapZoom` is a click on a map that is already open. The first attempt at this was reverted and the reason is in the test's own comment: its pin opened the real map on the shipped interface and passed with *and* without the fix, because the stock ordering happens to be fine and the symptom needs the addons. The pin that replaced it asserts the engine half directly — a handler that registers after `SetMapToCurrentZone` returns still receives the event — and answers 0 without the change and 1 with it.

map: the art trace reads the tiles the repaint put up, not the ones it replaced
The line fired in the frame the selection changed, and the repaint that fills the tiles is Lua's own off a queued `WORLD_MAP_UPDATE` — so it read the map that had just left. That is how "the map shows Dun Morogh and the tiles are Azeroth's" got into a log with nothing wrong behind it. It now waits three frames, restarting the wait if the selection moves again. docs/ADDON_COMPAT.md records this round: the cursor position no verb ever wrote, the per-kind nameplate CVars a nil answer greys out, the capture lever above with its two limits measured rather than assumed, and one open item — the map's Continent and Zone pickers, blank on the first open with the addons loaded and fine without them, with the candidate engine fix rejected because the test for it passed either way.

capture: WOW_CAPTURE_ADDONS=1, to put an addon's own drawing in front of the renderer
A map report could be answered from neither harness: `addon_harness` runs the VM with no renderer, so it can say what a region is and never what it looks like, and the capture harness renders for real but is hermetic — `local_state::home` answers None under $WOW_CAPTURE, so no config, no saved variables and no addons, which is what makes a baseline comparable between machines. An addon that draws its own art was therefore unseeable without a server, and the only evidence was a player's screen recording. `WOW_CAPTURE_ADDONS=1` opts the player's addon folder back in for one run — `ui_script::addons::root`, the single narrow exception, with saved variables still out, so an addon runs on its shipped defaults. The world-map fixture will also ask a stitched-map addon for a view through its published API, retrying until the map is stitched (`WOW_CAPTURE_MAP_ZOOM`, `WOW_CAPTURE_MAP_AT`). `scripts/visual.sh` never sets any of it, so no baseline sees an addon. The first shot taken this way answered the open question: with OpenMapClassic loaded this client draws the stitched Dun Morogh map correctly, art, neighbours, labels, lore panel and player dot — so the map report is not the art pipeline. Also corrects a stale comment: the shot has never been Elwynn; continent 2, zone 10 is Dun Morogh.

cvars: the later clients' per-kind nameplate switches, so an addon's rows are editable
Cinematic's Nameplates page asks `GetCVar(name) ~= nil` before it will offer a row (`Effects.lua`'s `HasPlateSettings`). A nil answer is not "off" to an addon written for a later client — it is "this client has no such setting" — and the whole row goes grey, which is why grom could not touch Friendly NPCs. The two rows that worked were the two that happen to name `nameplateShowEnemies`/`nameplateShowFriends`, the only nameplate CVars this client had, because 1.12 has none at all. Seventeen rows registered. Sixteen are live: friendly players, friendly NPCs, hostile players, and each side's pets/guardians/totems/minions — eight names on the friendly side and four on the hostile one, each side driving one field, because a 1.12 object update carries an owner and not a kind of owner and an addon writes the whole set together. `nameplateMaxDistance` joins `NameplateRange` and `NP_NameplateDistance` as a third name for one reach. All default "1", the least-restrictive value, for the reason `NameplateRange` gives: the two masters already decide whether plates show at all, and a refinement shipped off would take away plates a player has today. Paired against `VPlateMode::default()` in the defaults test, the pairing the derived-Default trap forced on `occlusion`. Five are registered and inert, each saying so on its own row and in the orphan test's list: `nameplateShowAll` (1.12 has no in-combat-only mode), `nameplateShowSelf` (no plate over the player), `nameplateShowOnlyNameForFriendlyPlayerUnits` and `nameplateForceShowUnitName` (no such plate mode here), and `nameplateShowEnemyMinus` (the plate path has no creature rank).

ui: GetCursorPosition answered 0,0, so nothing could drag or size a frame
`Model::cursor_pos` is read by the verb in two places and was written by nothing in the workspace: declared, initialised to the origin, never assigned. So `GetCursorPosition()` answered `0, 0` for every call of every session. That kills the universal drag-and-size idiom — stamp the cursor on `OnMouseDown`, subtract it each `OnUpdate`, size by the difference. Every delta came out zero, the frame was re-anchored to its own current size sixty times a second while the player dragged, and the addon's own "that was a click, not a drag" guard then declined to save. Nothing raises and nothing logs. grom reported it twice as OpenMapClassic's map window refusing to resize; the round before this one painted its invisible grips and left this underneath. Fed in `ui_script/input.rs` beside `set_mouse_buttons`, for the reason that one states: the pointer feed below is skipped for a cursor off the window and for a UI hidden by TOGGLEUI, and the reference answers through both. UI units, y-up from the bottom-left, undivided — UIParent is scale 1 here, so an addon's `x / frame:GetEffectiveScale()` lands in the frame's own units as on the reference. The test pins the whole idiom rather than the getter, because the getter answering *something* was never the question.

ui: the map's own art line, in every session's log
A play report about how the map looks arrives without the diagnostic that answers it, and the only way to ask for the line again is to wait for the player to play again. It cost a round trip on 2026-11-02, so the trace is unconditional now: one line per world-map selection change, with the frame the detail is drawn into added beside the detail frame's own rect, since a canvas zoom and an oversized tile change the picture the same way and only the two together say which one did it.

ui: the stock map art has to follow the detail frame it is drawn into
`WOW_MAP_TRACE=1` named it on grom's first run, in one line:
detail 1431x954 @scale 0.70 | 1 256x256 @(10,1122) | 2 256x256 @(266,1122) | ...
1.12's `WorldMapDetailFrame` is always 1002x668, so everything drawn into it is placed in absolute
pixels against that: twelve 256x256 tiles anchor-chained from its TOPLEFT, each exploration overlay
at the offset `WorldMapOverlay.dbc` gives it. The canvas breaks that the moment it sizes the frame
to anything else, and it does — `OnCanvasSizeChanged` falls back to the container's own rect
whenever it has no art layer to read, which is every moment the canvas has no `mapID`, including
the world-view blip the same log shows on every map open.
So: a 1024x768 sheet of art pinned to the top-left of a 1431x954 frame, covering 72% of the width
and 80% of the height, with the rest of the map drawing nothing. That is the grey he reported,
with the art magnified relative to what was left of the frame.
The art is now rescaled to whatever size the frame has. The tiles need only their size set, because
the XML chains them TOPRIGHT-to-TOPLEFT and BOTTOMLEFT-to-TOPLEFT. The overlays carry absolute
offsets, so they are captured from what the stock repaint last wrote — hooked on
`WorldMapFrame_Update`, the only moment those base values are readable — and scaled from that base,
so a second pass cannot compound. Measured: a 1431x954 frame now holds a 1462x1097 grid, the same
1024/1002 and 768/668 proportion the reference frames.
Two smaller faults fell out and are fixed with it: the container resizing was not treated as a
canvas size change at all (the canvas was re-sized only on a map change), and a derived resize
fires no `OnSizeChanged` here, so the rescale takes the size its caller just set rather than
reading the frame back, which would answer the old one.

app: WOW_MAP_TRACE, because no instrument here can see the map
A player's report about how the map *looks* is the one question this side cannot answer. The offline addon harness seats no renderer, the capture harness seats no UI or addons, and a scripted login would kick the player off their own account — so a full audit (art present and correct, catalog right, canvas geometry right, overlay tiling arithmetic right, addon setup complete) still could not say why grom's Dun Morogh map came up magnified, clipped and grey. Every number that decides the picture is readable from the VM. `WOW_MAP_TRACE=1` prints them once per map change: the detail frame's rect and effective scale, then per tile its rect, the texture path it holds, and the decoded size of that file. The file size is measured through a scratch texture with no size of its own, because the tile declares 256x256 in `WorldMapFrame.xml` and would answer that whatever the file holds — and this install's map art is a 512 upscale pack, which is exactly the disagreement worth seeing. Off unless the variable is set: it runs a Lua chunk per map change. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SgstFWtn1RxEJ5kVrpgYwn |

ui: a nameplate now carries the unit token its own event names
`plate.namePlateUnitToken` was set on nothing. It is how every later-era plate addon gets from a frame back to its unit — `plate.namePlateUnitToken or (plate.UnitFrame and plate.UnitFrame.unit)`, six sites in `Cinematic/Effects.lua` and `PlateParts.lua` alone — so an addon walking `C_NamePlate.GetNamePlates()` had a frame's rect and nothing about its unit, and could not tell a friendly plate from a hostile one. The measured symptom was grom's friendly nameplates switching themselves on the moment CineMode started, on a profile whose every friendly-plate box is unticked. That CVar write is the addon's and it is deliberate: outside instances Cinematic switches every plate kind on so visibility is decided by *fading* instead, because fades can change in a fight and plate settings cannot. Having switched them all on, it then faded none of them, because it could not identify one. The token already existed — `script/nameplate.rs` has had the slot-bound `nameplate<N>` tokens and the three plate events since the pool was built. All that was missing was publishing the slot's token on the frame: set before `NAME_PLATE_UNIT_ADDED` and cleared after `NAME_PLATE_UNIT_REMOVED`, so a handler for either event reads the field that event is about, and a pooled frame reused for the next unit cannot answer the departed one's token.

ui: the override-binding family exists and says what it does not do
`ClearOverrideBindings` was absent outright, so `Cinematic/Camera.lua:470` raised in grom's chat on every camera shot that ended — and a raise mid-handler costs the rest of the handler, not just the line. These are 2.0's secure-binding layer: a second, unsaved binding table a frame owns, outranking the saved one while that frame wants it and dropped whole by `ClearOverrideBindings(owner)`. This client models the saved table only (`script/keybind.rs`), so: - the five setters are no-ops that **warn once each** through the script warning channel. Silence was the alternative and it is the worse one — a setter that quietly binds nothing is the same class of fault as a hook that quietly arms nothing, and the caller cannot find out. - `ClearOverrideBindings` is a plain no-op and does not warn. Dropping a table that was never filled *is* nothing, and warning there would fire on every `ClearRecast()` while the player does nothing unusual. The module header lists what a real layer needs — an override table keyed by owner in `Model`, a generation bump for `bindings.rs`'s `sync_dispatch`, an override arm in `BindingDispatch::map` that wins over the saved chord, and a `Bound::Click` — together with the `SecureHandler*` half in `secure.rs`, which is the same table seen from inside a snippet and no-op for the same reason.

ui: GetDebugName, the name an unnamed frame still answers
`Cinematic/Frames.lua:3734` is `entry.name or entry.frame:GetDebugName()` — an addon that keeps a list of frames reaches for this precisely because some of them have no name, which is the one case `GetName` cannot serve. With the method absent, `/cine debug frame <name>` raised on the first unnamed row in the list instead of printing the row the player asked for. On all three method tables, since the era puts it on ScriptObject. A named frame answers its name, so a feature test on it learns nothing a 1.12 client would answer differently. The unnamed leg deviates in its fallback only: it walks the parent's own fields for the key the child is stored under (frames here are plain tables, so `parent.icon = tex` is visible) and answers `Parent.<unnamed>` when there is none, where the era answers an index among the parent's children — an index here would be the order of a list this client does not keep, and a wrong number reads worse than an honest absence.

ui: hooksecurefunc over a widget method has to read through the metatable
The table form read the field with `raw_get`, on the reasoning that a field
reached only through a metatable is not that table's to replace. A widget
carries none of its own methods — they live on the shared class table its
metatable's `__index` names (`object.rs`'s `frame_meta_for`) — so
`hooksecurefunc(frame, "SetAlpha", cb)` found nothing there and armed nothing,
silently. Measured: **0 fires across 2 `SetAlpha` calls**, while the plain-table
and global forms fired correctly.
That is not a corner of the form, it is what the form is for. 29 files in grom's
corpus hook a widget method, and the one that shows: `Cinematic/Frames.lua:459`
hooks each pfUI frame's own `SetAlpha` so that Cinematic can **follow** pfUI's
out-of-combat fade rather than fight it ("their frames have SetAlpha followed
straight away by ours, taking what it set as the new base"). With the hook
unarmed the two wrote a different alpha to the same frame on alternating frames
— which is grom's "still flashing my unitframe when cinematic is on".
The reference reads `table[name]` plainly and assigns the wrapper back, which
*shadows* the class method for that one object and leaves its siblings alone.
This now does the same: read through `__index`, write raw onto the host, which
is the same thing a plain assignment would do since frame metatables carry no
`__newindex`. A test pins both halves — the chain fires on the hooked frame, and
a sibling of the same kind is untouched, with nothing written to the class table.
Corpus roster byte-identical (87 ok / 1 fail) with all 29 files' hooks armed.

ui: MOD multiplies, and a gradient is not an alternative to a fill
Cinematic's colour tint painted the whole screen opaque white for as long as its
CineMode ran: `srgb(255,255,255)` across the world with the UI still drawn on top
of it, 16.8 s of it in grom's 2026-11-02 recording, starting the instant he picked
a profile. Three faults on the one path from the addon's call to the pixel, each
of them enough on its own.
`SetBlendMode("MOD")` parsed, answered `GetBlendMode` and then drew as straight
alpha. One pipeline served BLEND and ADD — the shader emitting `(rgb·a, a)` or
`(rgb·a, 0)` into a single `(One, OneMinusSrcAlpha)` state — because no scalar
source alpha can stand in for a per-channel destination factor, and the mode had
no caller worth a second pipeline. It had one: nine of the addon's ten tint
presets are MOD (`Tint.lua:21`), and a MOD colour is built to be multiplied —
`1 − (1 − c)·strength` at **alpha 1**, white at strength 0 — so drawn with alpha
instead it is an opaque near-white quad over UIParent. MOD now keys its own
pipeline, `(Dst, Zero)` with the destination's own alpha kept, off the same
`0x70c190` table the world's Mod batches already read; the shader returns the
multiplier un-premultiplied, since neither alpha appears in that formula, and runs
no longer merge across the flag.
The extract read `fill.or_else(|| gradient.map(midpoint))`, so a region that set
both drew the fill and dropped the gradient. They are not alternatives:
`<Gradient>` writes the four vertex colours (`+0xb8`, `0x77304d`), which
`loader/regions.rs` already reads as "unlike `<Color>` it tints the art". The tint
is exactly that shape — `SetColorTexture(1, 1, 1, 1)` once, re-gradiented a few
times a second — and so is its vignette, whose four edges were drawing as opaque
white bars.
And `SetGradient` took only 1.12's six loose numbers. This client answers
`CreateColor`, so an addon that feature-detects takes retail's colour-object form
and never tries the numbers; the two objects coerced to six zeros through
`as_f32`, the call **succeeded**, and the `pcall` that was the feature test
(`Tint.lua:546`) reported it understood. Both spellings now read a colour object
when the first stop is a table.

ui: SetEnabled, the one setter retail put in place of Enable/Disable
A later-era addon writes `SetEnabled` **unguarded on its own controls**, even where it guards on someone else's. `Cinematic/Options.lua:4176` is a tick's own `Refresh`, greying it when a rule owns the row; `:305` twelve pages up is the same file writing `control.SetEnabled and …` about a control it did not make. The raise at 4176 unwound `RefreshOptions` → `SettingsChanged` → `SetProfile` → `Welcome.lua:43`, so picking a profile from the addon's welcome window applied the profile and then abandoned the panel refresh, leaving the traceback in chat and the window still reading "Nothing runs until you pick one." That is the chat error grom recorded on 2026-11-02. Composed from the stock `Enable`/`Disable` pair (`0x780160`, `0x7801b0`) on Button's table, which CheckButton and LootButton reach down the same chain the pair travels. EditBox takes it too, written out rather than composed because the reference gives a box no enabled state at all: it writes the mouse and keyboard the frame already owns and drops focus, so input is refused and the text is NOT greyed, which 1.12 has no slot for — `Options.lua:1629` is the call that needs it. A Slider still answers neither this nor the trio: addons duck-type on them to tell a control from a bar, which `tests/slider.rs` pins.

ui: the map's hovered-zone label is chrome, not map content
The canvas reparents 1.12's `WorldMapButton` into the zooming child so that every 1.12 addon's icons pan and scale with the map. `WorldMapFrameAreaFrame` hangs off that button in the client's own XML — it covers the art, so that is where the label that names what the cursor is over was hung — and it went along with it. Its label is a 102 px THICKOUTLINE FontString. Inside the canvas it scales with the zoom, so at zoom 2.5 every letter is a 261 px glyph, and one zone name's worth of those is most of the 2048² glyph sheet. Measured in grom's 2026-11-02 session: one `ui_text: a 261.10907 logical-px request … past the 256 ceiling`, then 20 `glyph sheet full … resetting at the frame boundary`, one per hover, each of them a frame in which every string on screen is missing — the map "flashing the interface". Frame cost with the map open went 11 ms → 16-20 ms over the same window. So it goes back on the window, anchored to the container's top, which is where the art's top edge is now; at rest that is the pixel it was already at. Measured through the harness: the biggest text under `WorldMapFrame` was 102 px at zoom 1 and 1632 px at zoom 16, and is now 102 px at every zoom.

lua: a size this library derived is a cache, and a # append invalidates it
This is what froze his client. The bound named `Cinematic/Camera.lua:2597`:
while turnStarts[1] and now - turnStarts[1] > WINDOW do
table.remove(turnStarts, 1)
end
`remove` drains the table and remembers a size of 0 — faithfully, that is
`luaL_setn`. The addon then appends with `turnStarts[#turnStarts + 1] = now`,
which is a raw set this layer never sees, so slot 1 is full while the
remembered size is still 0. `remove` reads 0, takes its "nothing to remove"
path, changes nothing, and the caller spins forever. 15 s of Lua in every
frame, for the whole session, in a loop that in the reference cannot fail.
It cannot fail there because 5.0 has no `#` operator: every append goes through
`insert` or `getn`, so a remembered size is always the truth. The collision is
a later-era addon's `#` meeting 5.0's bookkeeping, and it also loses data the
quiet way round — `insert` after a `#` append writes *over* the appended slot
instead of after it, which is a test here now too.
So the two kinds of size are kept apart. One this library **derived** from an
`insert` or a `remove` is a cache: if `t[n + 1]` is not nil the table has grown
since, and the count wins. One an addon **declared** with `table.setn` is
honoured exactly as before, because `setn(t, 0)` as a logical wipe over full
slots is the entire point of it — AceLibrary and Mik's capture tables both turn
on that, and both still pass. An explicit numeric `t.n` field is a declaration
too, and is untouched.
Measured: the corpus roster is byte-identical (87 ok / 1 fail, the failure the
pre-existing AdvancedTradeSkillWindow2), and the drain loop that spun 44 times
in his log now ends in one removal a round.

ui: a runaway frame writes its own line, and stops costing the whole bound twice
Two of his sessions froze this morning with nothing in the log. The journal says what happened: every frame 15,0xx ms, `main_ms` 14,970 of it, GPU 3 ms, the main thread `state R` with 64 s of CPU in 68 s of wall. That dead-constant 15.02 s is `RUNAWAY_FRAME_SECS` — a Lua loop that never returns, re-entered the next frame and the next. The bound did its job and said nothing, because its raise unwinds to whatever `pcall` caught the call. On this corpus that is always an addon's own guard, so the trip became nobody's script error: `session errors: 0`, no log line, no file, no line number. `WOW_UI_RAISES` would have caught it and is `eprintln!` only, which is no use to someone who is in the game. So the hook writes its own report before raising, and the host logs it at `error!` beside the ordinary error drain. Each kept report carries a sixteen frame traceback, because the innermost line is usually inside a library and the handler that entered the loop is the name worth having. And the bound tightens to a second once it has tripped. The first one has to be far beyond any legitimate frame, which makes it far beyond playable: a loop is re-entered every frame, so the player gets one frame every fifteen seconds — indistinguishable from the freeze the bound exists to prevent, and that is exactly what he got. One trip has already proved the call non-terminating; the ones after it need only enough rope to say so. A second is still some 125M VM instructions, two orders past the heaviest handler ever measured here.

ui: the Era map canvas over 1.12's own world map, and the Line region
What 1.12 withholds here is a framework, not a verb. Its world map is a fixed 1002x668 frame showing one zone — twelve tiles, a hit button, POI buttons, two dropdowns — with no canvas, no pan, no zoom, no pins and no notion of where one map sits on another. Every map addon written after 4.0 drives the canvas framework instead, and there is no stock file to migrate from because there is no stock feature. The constraint that shaped every decision: `WorldMapFrame` already has eight 1.12 consumers on this install, all anchoring icons to `WorldMapDetailFrame` and `WorldMapButton`. So nothing is replaced. The canvas is added, and those two frames are reparented INTO it — at rest the rect they had, at scale 1 with no pan, so the stock window is pixel-identical, and the payoff is that the 1.12 art and every icon on it now pan and scale WITH the canvas for free. Clipping comes from a real ScrollFrame: this client clips a scroll child and every descendant of it from one source, in the draw pass and the hit-test, so drawing and hitting agree. The base-art layer a canvas addon hides is a proxy that switches draw layers rather than the frame, because hiding the frame would take the POI buttons and every addon's icons with it. Three regressions, each found by measurement, each pinned: the anchor cycle (container to detail frame to canvas to container — a cycle resolves to nothing, and the symptom was `GetCenter()` nil inside the stock hover pass); the base scale (a minScale below 1 opens the map zoomed out of its own window); and `dataProviders` being a set rather than an array, because callers iterate it with `pairs` and bind the key — an array handed that loop the number 1. `CreateLine` is a Texture carrying two endpoints, drawn through the explicit-corner quad path the cooldown wedge already uses. Nothing stands in for it: a line between two moving points is a rotated quad whose angle and length both change. `C_Texture.GetAtlasInfo` answers nil for every name, and the nil is the answer — but the getter's presence is what makes the common atlas guard take its fallback branch instead of raising. The harness grew a second surface, and the finding is worth keeping: the full screen map hides `UIParent`, so opening it in the ordinary render probe dropped the corpus's draw column from 37/86 to 18/86 — nineteen unrelated addons. As its own pass: no addon lost a quad and nineteen gained, pfQuest 374 -> 911, pfUI 1063 -> 2259. OpenMapClassic now reads 1/1 on all five columns, stitching 74 of the realm's own zones. Corpus roster unchanged at 85 ok / 1 fail; the 12 data-half reds byte-identical to HEAD's.

ui: texture masks, the later-era texture dials, and the pools a canvas map needs
The mask pair is the one that matters and nothing can stand in for it. 1.12 has no texture masking at all — its single masked thing is the minimap disc, cut engine-side — and no idiom reaches the same end, because the point is that a rectangular texture draws as a non-rectangular shape. A seamless world map is that operation and nothing else: a zone's art is a rectangle of parchment and the map wants it cut to the zone's coastline. It was affordable because the render pass already had the slot. `UiQuad::mask` is a screen-anchored alpha mask built for the minimap's fixed circle with tiles panning under it, which is exactly `AddMaskTexture`'s semantics — the mask is another region with its own anchors, and the subject keeps the fragments its alpha covers at that place. So this is plumbing, not a new material. One mask per quad, said rather than hidden: widening it is a second texture binding and a second uniform on every UI quad in the client. The list is kept whole, because the order decides the winner — first added, which for a stitched map is the land mask. Two traps are pinned by tests: a mask region is skipped at extract rather than marked hidden, since its rect is what it covers; and a mask whose art is missing drops the mask, not the quad, because zero coverage would blank the art it was meant to shape. `Texture:SetRotation` was nearly free — the renderer has carried the angle since the minimap arrow, so this is the Lua setter for it. `SetDesaturation` is the fractional form of 1.12's own flag, rounded onto the one flag this renderer has, with the getter answering the caller's own number. The tile pair is applied: the host computes the repeat count once the art has loaded. `SetPropagateKeyboardInput` is stored, not applied: 1.12 already always propagates, so there is no swallow mode for false to select. `EditBox:HasFocus` publishes a fact this client already tracks and never exposed. Corpus: 85 ok / 1 fail, roster and digest unchanged. The 12 data-half reds are byte-identical to HEAD's.

compat: the uiMapID graph over the realm's own WorldMapArea, and C_Map's other half
1.12 addresses a map by a (continent, zone) pair of dropdown indices — a position in two lists, which moves when a zone is inserted — and publishes no map's rectangle on any other map at all, because its window draws one zone at a time into a fixed 1002x668 frame and never needs to know where that zone sits. A seamless, pannable map is exactly that missing relation. `script/uimap.rs` builds the tree as a pure function of the catalog `ui_world_map.rs` already pushes, rebuilt inside both setters so the graph and the catalog cannot disagree. No new DBC read, so nothing here can contradict what the stock map window itself draws. It is built from OctoWoW's own rows, which is the point: 175 against stock 1.12's 51, with 124 maps added and 49 shipped rects re-tuned. Era's uiMapIDs are reused where the map is the same map, joined on the WorldMapArea art folder rather than the zone name, because the folder is the column a realm has no reason to touch — this realm spells Azshara's `Aszhara` and Hillsbrad's `Hilsbrad` exactly as 1.12 does. A row Era has no counterpart for is minted from its own AreaTable id. One realm quirk is handled with its measurement: a third `areaID == 0` row whose art folder is `World` is the sheet's own row, which the reference's catalog walk files beside the two continents — `SetMapZoom(3, 0)` then `GetMapInfo()` answers `World`. Left in, it is a phantom continent carrying a second copy of all 39 Eastern Kingdoms zones. Art is answered as paths, so the chain serves the upscaled pack; the layer geometry is the logical 1002x668 / 256x256, because normalized fractions are invariant under a uniform upscale. The harness now seats the player a world position and the per-frame map feed, because every verb that answers *where* the player is reads the position, not the zone name.

ui: a numeric texture argument is a file id, not a colour channel
With this and the font-object rename below, **OpenMapClassic loads clean, survives a session
start and survives a UI probe** — from dying on its first file, inside Ace3, before a line of
its own code ran.
Later clients gave every shipped file a numeric id and addons pass those instead of paths. Both
of our texture setters read a number as the **colour** arm, and they failed differently, which
is why this is worth a module of its own:
- `region/paint.rs`'s `SetTexture` needs *two* numbers for a colour, so a lone
`SetTexture(130763)` fell through to the catch-all and drew **nothing**.
- `button.rs`'s slot setters take one number as a colour with green and blue defaulting to 0,
so `SetNormalTexture(130763)` painted a **solid block** where the button art belongs. That is
the arm Ace3 calls, and it failed silently: nothing raised, the art was simply wrong, which is
the worst way for this to go.
**The rule**: a lone numeric argument of 2 or more is a file id. A colour channel is 0..1 and
every id a client ever minted is six figures, so the two cannot collide and `SetTexture(0.5)`
keeps answering exactly as 1.12 does.
**The table is transcription, not invention.** Every numeric literal passed to a texture setter
anywhere in the installed corpus *and* in both `Addon_Ports` addons — 21, all from Ace3/AceGUI
— is annotated by its own author with the path it means:
button:SetNormalTexture(130763) -- "Interface\Buttons\UI-DialogBox-Button-Up"
So the ids stay the real ones rather than something of ours, and the source is the call site. An
id with no row draws nothing and records a warning naming it, because a wrong texture is harder
to notice than a missing one — and that warning is what says which id to add. `GetFileIDFromPath`
answers only what the table knows and nil otherwise: minting a synthetic id would hand back a
number no other client agrees with.
**`SetNormalFontObject`** is the later-era spelling of 1.12's `SetTextFontObject` (`0x780400`)
— the one name this family left behind, since `SetHighlightFontObject` (`0x780700`) and
`SetDisabledFontObject` (`0x780580`) are 1.12's own. It hands out the same function value, so
the spellings cannot drift. Ace3 calls it on every button it builds
(`AceConfigDialog-3.0.lua:586`), one line above the `SetNormalTexture(130763)` above.
What openmap still cannot do is **draw**: it does not build a map, it re-skins Era's canvas
`WorldMapFrame` (`Map/WorldMap.lua:823`), and that canvas does not exist here. That is the map
stack, not this.

compat: the cast-info pair as bare globals, and IsMouseButtonDown over a real feed
Cinematic's last two session errors. With these it loads clean, survives a session start, survives a UI probe and **draws** — all four of the harness's runtime columns. **`UnitCastingInfo`/`UnitChannelInfo` as bare globals** is an export, not a feature: the namespaced pair was already built with the whole contract in `cast_info` (the two return shapes, the millisecond unit, every position this client leaves nil and why), and these hand out the **same function values** the `C_Spell` table holds, so the two spellings cannot drift. Six calls of each in `Cinematic/Camera.lua` and its siblings, unguarded. `CastingInfo`/ `ChannelInfo` stay namespace-only: nothing on this install calls them bare, and pfUI reaches the one it wants through the namespace (`libdebuff.lua:887`). **`IsMouseButtonDown` needed a feed before it could be built honestly, and the reason it was declined is why.** `compat/classic_api/input.rs` had said no on the grounds that the only press state here is `Model::mouse_down_on`, which the pointer layer fills *only* for a press that landed on a frame — and `Cinematic/Camera.lua:612` asks in order to spot a right-drag **on the world**, which is exactly what that map cannot see. Answering from it would have been wrong for the one caller. So `Model::mouse_buttons` is new: `[Left, Right, Middle, Button4, Button5]`, pushed each frame from `ButtonInput<MouseButton>` beside the modifiers. Placed there deliberately rather than with the pointer feed below it, because that feed is skipped for a cursor off the window or a hidden UI, and "is the right button still held" has to stay true through both — which is the camera's question. Both spellings (`RightButton` and `Button2`), no argument means any button as upstream's does, and a button no device has answers not-down rather than raising. The reference capture of the real client's `_G` has no mouse-button getter at all, and `ClassicAPI.dll` carries the name, so it is compat's rather than a 1.12 gap.

sound: the later-era Sound_ CVar names, which three installed addons already wanted
`GetCVar("Sound_MusicVolume")` answered nil, so `Cinematic/Core.lua:3621` raised inside a
`format` and took the rest of its `PLAYER_LOGIN` handler — the music restore — with it. 2.x
renamed the sound CVars with a `Sound_` prefix and 1.12's names stayed what they are; Cinematic
is a multi-flavour addon and uses the modern spelling at **all 47** of its music sites, which
is the whole of its music-fade feature.
**This is a fix for the install, not a concession to the port.** Three addons already here ask
with the modern spelling and have been reading nil: DoiteAuras' editor and Tmog
(`Sound_MasterVolume`, `Sound_DialogVolume`, `Sound_EnableDialog`), SoftSpoken
(`Sound_EnableAllSound`, `Sound_SFXVolume`, `Sound_EnableSFX`).
Ten rows, each on the footing the `BackgroundSound` pair in this file already set: two names,
one knob, dispatched together in `sound/mod.rs`'s observer so the spellings cannot disagree
about a setting. Each default is its 1.12 sibling's, since they are the same setting twice.
Two honest compromises, labelled where they live: 1.12 has no dialogue channel, so
`Sound_DialogVolume` rides the SFX volume and `Sound_EnableDialog` the error-speech toggle; and
it has no SFX-only enable, so `Sound_EnableSFX` rides `MasterSoundEffects`, the only sound
enable it has. Riding what the mixer actually has beats inventing tracks it has not got.
**`GetCVarBool`** is absent from 1.12 on this repo's own evidence —
`reference/1.12-globals.tsv` is a capture of the real client's `_G` and carries `GetCVar` and
`GetCVarDefault` and nothing else of the family — and present in `ClassicAPI.dll`'s string
pool, so it belongs to the client this build announces itself as. It answers a real boolean, as
the name says, and **nil for a name with no row**, so "there is no such CVar" stays
distinguishable from "it is off". `Cinematic/Camera.lua:493` reads `ActionButtonUseKeyDown`
through it.
Not built, and deliberately: `IsMouseButtonDown`. `compat/classic_api/input.rs` already
declined it with the right reason — the only press state here is `Model::mouse_down_on`, which
the pointer layer fills *only* for a press that landed on a frame. `Cinematic/Camera.lua:612`
asks in order to spot a right-drag **on the world**, which is exactly what that map cannot see,
so answering from it would be wrong for the one caller. It wants a real mouse-button feed.

ui: PreClick/PostClick, and a comma-separated template list
Two of the `Addon_Ports` pair's load blockers, both measured with `addon_harness` either side. **`PreClick`/`PostClick`** follow the convention `SCRIPT_KINDS` already set for names that are not 1.12's — `OnHyperlinkEnter`/`Leave` sit there with the same justification: a later client added them, addons register them at load, and refusing the name raises and takes the rest of the file with it. `Cinematic/MenuWheel.lua`'s wheel slots are the callers here. They arrived with the secure template system so a button could act either side of the protected part; nothing protected sits between them here, so the order is all they are. `button::click_button` fires each of the three **separately**, so one that raises is recorded and the next still runs: the pair exists to bracket the click, and a broken bracket must not eat it. That is the same reasoning the attribute-click dispatch below it already carries. **A comma-separated template list**, which 1.12 does not take: its `inherits` is one name, and `object.rs`'s lookup is a transcription of that (`0x6ee6f0` at `0x7061dd`, no splitter). Era takes a list and applies them in order, and that is what an addon written for Era passes — `Cinematic/MenuWheel.lua:312` asks for `"SecureHandlerShowHideTemplate, SecureHandlerAttributeTemplate"`. **The evidence is weaker than `compat/`'s other relaxations and the code says so.** The one-argument `SetPoint` rests on the real `ClassicAPI.dll` writing that form itself; this rests only on Era doing it and the addon targeting Era — nothing in the DLL's own Lua passes a list, and **no addon in the installed corpus does either**, which is also why it can break nothing. Safe by construction: the split is attempted only **after** the verbatim name misses, so every existing call takes exactly the path it did before and a template whose own name contained a comma would still win. One unknown name anywhere in the list and the whole call misses, reporting the literal **unsplit** and leaving no frame behind — so a typo reads as a typo rather than as a half-built frame. `a_comma_list_is_one_name_and_a_single_name_still_chains` was a deliberate, traced pin on the old behaviour, so it is rewritten rather than deleted. It now pins the shape of the relaxation: the verbatim name tried first, both templates applied in the order written with `$parent` resolving against the instance, a list with one unknown name still missing unsplit and leaving nothing behind, and a plain unknown name unchanged. Its doc states the weaker footing, which is why the miss path is pinned that closely. benilla-ui 2081 passed. Full chain green.

compat: the secure-handler family and the animation surface
Both modules land together because `classic_api/mod.rs` and `widget_surface.rs` carry rows for
each: split, the first commit named a module the second added, and would not have compiled.
## The secure-handler family, because 1.12 has nothing to be secure from
`frame.rs` declined it with a stated reason — "modern restricted execution, which 1.12 has no
equivalent of" — and that is right about the *sandbox* and is the whole of why it is now built.
A secure handler exists so an untainted snippet may call **protected** functions; 1.12 has
neither taint nor protected functions, so the restriction has no counterpart here, while the
plumbing underneath (a named frame store, a snippet on a child's handler) is ordinary
behaviour the snippets need. The body runs as plain Lua with the names the secure environment
would bind.
**The per-header shared table is the part worth getting right.** `MenuWheel.lua:484` writes a
bare `held = false` inside a snippet, and in the real secure environment that lands in a table
per header, not `_G`. `setfenv` onto one table per frame, `__index` to `_G` so the rest of the
API resolves; the test asserts `held` is **not** a global afterwards. My first test asserted
through `_G` and failed — the implementation was right and the test measured the wrong thing.
**`SecureActionButtonTemplate` is not empty**: reading your own attributes on click is plain
dispatch. `type="click"` clicks the frame in `clickbutton` (how the wheels reach the game's
micro buttons), and the lookup follows upstream's order (`type-<button>`, `*type*`, `type`).
**That exposed a real bug of ours**: `SetAttribute` silently dropped a frame.
`attribute_value` kept bool/int/number/string and sent everything else to `ScriptValue::Nil`,
so `SetAttribute("clickbutton", SomeFrame)` stored nothing — and upstream's `clickbutton` is
routinely a frame, which `Cinematic/MenuWheel.lua` relies on. A widget table is now kept as
`ScriptValue::Frame(id)`, the variant `NAME_PLATE_CREATED`'s arg1 already uses, which
round-trips through `object::frame_wrapper`. A non-widget table is still nil, documented.
**Not built, named rather than left to be discovered**: the binding half (`ClearBindings`,
`SetBindingClick`, …) are no-ops — no override-binding layer here to write into — so a wheel
opened with the mouse works and hold-a-key-and-release does not; and the `_onshow`/`_onhide`
attribute snippets are not run, since `SetAttribute` is a plain store with nothing to drive
them.
Templates in `assets/ui/CompatTemplates.xml`, listed on that wall with the reason: no stock
file to migrate from, and XML rather than `compat/` only because `inherits=` is loader-resolved.
A trap caught before shipping: `BackdropTemplateMixin.GetBackdropColor` forwarding to
`self:GetBackdropColor()` calls **itself** once `Mixin()` copies it onto the frame — the stock
getters answer, so there are no getter rows, and a test mixes in and reads back.
## `CreateAnimationGroup`: the surface, with nothing animated
1.12 has no animation system and this UI pass has no interpolation to hang one on. The cost is
the **absent constructor**: `Cinematic/Options.lua:7106` builds a rotating spinner and the nil
method aborted the whole options panel. Measured first — that is the addon's only animation in
55,661 lines, so this is a surface for a decoration.
**A non-looping group finishes the moment it plays**, firing `OnFinished`, because nothing
moves and that is the reading that keeps an addon's flow right; one that chains its next step
off `OnFinished` would otherwise wait forever. A looping group plays until stopped. Stated in
the header, since the name implies motion: a spinner does not spin, a fade appears at its
destination, a sequence lands on its last frame. Setters and getters round-trip.
Corpus: all 100 of grom's addons surveyed before and after — 85 ok / 1 fail, rosters
identical. benilla-ui 2081 passed. Full chain green.

compat: SetPoint("POINT") with nothing after it, because ClassicAPI writes it
**A deviation, and the reasoning matters more than the code.** 1.12 raises `Usage:` on a
one-argument `SetPoint`, and that is traced rather than assumed: the `lua_type(L,3)` tag gate
at `0x7a25e6`..`0x7a2620` accepts four tags and an absent argument is none of them, which
this file's own header has said all along. Later clients read it as the default parent at the
same point with no offset, and that is what every Era-era addon writes —
`Cinematic/CameraWheel.lua:243` is `face:SetPoint("CENTER")`.
Allowed because **the real `ClassicAPI.dll` writes that form itself**: its embedded Lua
carries `f:SetPoint("CENTER");` and `tx:SetPoint(q[4]);`, so on the client this build already
announces itself as (`CLASSIC_API_VERSION` is set) the one-argument form has to work, or
ClassicAPI's own windows would not build. Claiming that client and withholding this is the
inconsistent position `stdlib_backport.rs` settled for the stdlib half.
It costs nothing in the ladder because of how it is spelled: the leg resolves to exactly what
the reference's own **three-argument** shorthand does (`RelTarget::DefaultParent`,
`0x7a270e`) — default parent, `rel_point` defaulted to `point`, offsets falling through to
(0, 0). No anchor shape is added; one spelling is mapped onto another the reference answers.
**It lives in `parse_set_point` and not in `compat/`, and that is load-bearing.** My first
attempt wrapped `SetPoint` per method table and `tests::region_map` caught it: the reference
registers it once in the Region method table, so every widget type runs the same function
object, and three wrapped copies broke an identity `region_map.rs` maintains on purpose (an
addon can pull `WorldFrame.GetHeight` off and apply it to a Texture). The header now says so,
so the wrapper route is not tried again.
Two tests pinned the old behaviour and are rewritten rather than deleted:
- The trailing-nil test gets **stronger**. It existed because `lua_type` tells `LUA_TNIL`
(the screen root, `0x7a2710`) from `LUA_TNONE`, and the ladder must see the count Lua saw.
Both forms resolve now, so it resolves a real layout and asserts they land in *different*
places: the explicit nil at the screen's corner, the absent one on its parent.
- One genuine ordering change, asserted: with no third argument there is no tag to gate, so
`SetPoint("MIDDLE")` reports "Unknown region point" where it reported `Usage:`. The
tag-gate-runs-first claim is kept for a *bad* tag, `SetPoint("MIDDLE", true)`.
Movement: Cinematic's load `CameraWheel.lua:243` → `MenuWheel.lua:312` (the secure-template
family, which `compat/classic_api/frame.rs` declines with its own reason).
