Retail UIElement_UIItem::UpdateTooltip @0x004E1CB0 caches the item's
NAME_APPROPRIATE display name (stack-count-prefixed "%d %s" when
StackSize > 1) as m_TTText every UIItem_Update refresh; the generic
UIElementManager::CheckTooltip dwell timer is what actually shows it
on hover — no special-cased trigger of its own.
UiItemSlot cells are built programmatically (never through
LayoutImporter.Build), so #409's original round left this deferred:
the class carried neither the popup locator (P0x47/P0x48) nor a name
source. A live-DAT sweep of the shared UIItem cell-template catalog
(ItemListCellTemplate.CatalogLayoutId, 0x21000037) found all 47
UIItem-type (class 0x10000032) prototypes — inventory's cell, every
toolbar slot, every paperdoll/armor slot skin — resolve the IDENTICAL
popup locator (P0x47=0x10000395/P0x48=0x21000041) through catalog
inheritance, with no literal text authored on any of them. UiItemSlot
now hardcodes that pair and exposes GetTooltipText() via a new
TooltipTextResolve delegate, wired at every physical-item
construction site: InventoryController (main-pack cell + grid cells),
ExternalContainerController, PaperdollController (closes the
separate gmPaperDollUI::UpdateItemSlotTooltip @0x004A52EF gap too —
same cell class, same fix), VendorUiController (shop/buying/selling
lists), SecureTradeUiController, ToolbarController.
Text is the new ClientObject.GetTooltipDisplayName(): GetAppropriateName()
prefixed with the stack count via "{count} {name}" when StackSize > 1,
matching UpdateTooltip's exact NAME_APPROPRIATE + "%d %s" sprintf.
UiCatalogSlot (spell/component catalog cells, a different UiItemSlot
subclass) is unaffected — it already overrides GetTooltipText() with
its own Label.

The two-client user gate PASSED 2026-08-14 (open both ways, stage with
the retail trading marker, accept/decline, executed swap, Clear All,
cancel text). Every TEMPORARY [trade] probe line from gate rounds 1-2 is
stripped (ItemInteractionController, SelectionInteractionController,
SecureTradeUiController, LiveSessionCommandRouter, WorldSession,
RuntimeTradeState). Roadmap gains the shipped-trade ledger row.
Suites after strip: App 4,992/3, Runtime 1,626 - green.

staged-item trading marker
- Cancel text: ClientTradeSystem::Handle_Trade__Recv_CloseTrade
@0x0056DE30 shows "The trade has been cancelled." UNCONDITIONALLY
(every close reason) as 0x1A ClientLocal - the yellow top-center
SpewBox line. Wired at the router's onTradeClose beside ApplyClose;
the string lives in ClientTextRefusals with its citation.
- Staged-item marker: retail's mechanism decoded end-to-end - the
UIItem prototype (catalog 0x21000037) authors overlay child
0x10000438 (sprite 0x06001DAE, the green frame + corner trade icon),
bound @0x004E18FC and SetVisible(tradeState != 0) @0x004E2420;
gmSecureTradeUI::AddItem @0x004CA801 sets
ACCWeenieObject::SetTradeState(1) on YOUR staged items. Ported as:
UiItemSlot.ShowTradeOverlay + TradeOverlaySprite (drawn over the
icon), set on the trade window's self-grid cells; and
RuntimeTradeState now borrows the canonical object table and
maintains ClientObject.TradeState (1 at stage, 0 at remove/failure/
reset/close/clear) - which also brings the ALREADY-PORTED placement
policy's "You cannot move an item while it is being traded" refusal
to life (its input field previously had no live producer).
Runtime 1,626, App 4,992/3 - green.

root cause for every dead interaction) + retail's Total Items caption
The round-2 probes nailed it: the request seam fired for BOTH open
paths (use AND drag - "drag-release pick" -> "drag-on-player" ->
"request"), but no open-cmd, no wire-open, and no LiveCommandBus
drop-warning ever printed. MountSecureTrade captured
_bindings.Options.CommandBus() ONCE at mount time - the pre-session
surface whose Publish routes into a null route silently. CommandBus is
a Func for exactly this reason; the social mounts resolve it inside
each lambda. Every trade command - open (use + drag), accept (the
"unpressable" Trade button - the click FIRED, the publish died),
Clear All, close, and drop-on-grid staging - died on that one captured
bus. All six lambdas now resolve the Func per call.
Also: ID_SecureTrade_TotalItemsLabel probe-verified token-free
(fragments ["Total Items: ", ""], one ITEMS variable 0x004E8A23) and
composed via ResolveTemplate - the count texts read retail's exact
"Total Items: N". AD-95 RETIRED same-day.
The pre-feature stub-toast test row (drag-on-player option-on expecting
"Secure trade is not open.") now pins the SecureTradeRequested seam
instead. App suite 4,991/3 skips.

and [trade] seam probes
- Use on a selected player did nothing: the world Use path
(SelectionInteractionController.RequestUse) dispatches 0x0036 directly
and NEVER consults DetermineUseResult - lane C's "both paths already
classified" claim described the POLICY's capability, not a live
caller (the verify-subagent-claims lesson, again). Retail's
CPlayerSystem::UsingItem @0x00562F70 consults it and routes result 5
(another PLAYER) to AttemptToOpenTradeNegotiations @0x0056DEE0, peace
mode only, with no Use send. Ported as
ItemInteractionController.TryOpenSecureTradeWithPlayer, called at
RequestUse entry.
- The broken window: both grids rendered their raw authored strip art
with no cell layout (the gold-ring tile was the naked track). They now
get the vendor strips' exact single-row 32px config + the authored
empty-slot art resolved through ItemListCellTemplate (cell-template
attr 0x1000000E -> 0x1000033A).
- Drag-onto-player "nothing happens": the policy chain reads correct
end-to-end in code (pick -> PlaceIn3D -> StartSecureTrade -> event ->
cmd), so TEMPORARY [trade] probe lines now bracket every seam
(drag-release pick, policy arm, controller request, use-on-player) -
the next gate log pinpoints the break if it persists. Stripped once
the two-client gate passes.
App suite 4,990/3 skips.

authored gmSecureTradeUI window, and both retail open paths
Three-lane research first (docs/research/2026-08-14-trade-lane{A,B,C}):
retail gmSecureTradeUI decode, the byte-exact ACE/decomp/holtburger
three-way wire agreement, and the acdream seam map (which found both
open paths ALREADY classified by the ported policy - OpenSecureTrade on
Use-a-player, StartSecureTrade on drag-item-onto-player with the
DragItemOnPlayerOpensSecureTrade option - dead-ending at a stub toast).
- Core.Net: TradeRequests builders (0x1F6-0x204, retail's CM_Trade
senders byte-checked against ACE's readers; the ACE-discarded
AcceptTrade echo carries zero-count item lists - AD-94), corrected +
completed inbound parsers (0x1FD-0x208; the old AddToTrade parser
missed the SIDE dword, TradeFailure missed the reason), delegate-hole
registrars, six WorldSession sends. 10 golden-byte tests.
- Runtime: RuntimeTradeState, the third sibling J-owner (fellowship/
allegiance shape): session-scoped, clears at generation reset (new
stage Trade=14), staged teardown stage 11 (Identity/EntityObjects
shift 12/13, TeardownStageCount 14 - the FA2-era per-stage-flag test
caught the mapping exactly as designed), combined ownership ledger,
event routing with ACE's wrong-initiator RegisterTrade landmine
honored (partner = whichever guid is not mine). 7 conformance tests.
- App: SecureTradeUiController binds the dedicated authored LayoutDesc
0x2100000D (root 0x1000007A - gmSecureTradeUI::PostInit's exact ids):
partner name/status/count/grid, the authored 'Trade' accept toggle
(accept <-> decline withdraw), 'Clear All' (ACE clears BOTH sides -
surfaced honestly), the X close, drop-on-your-grid staging, per-mode
accept cues (partner icon's authored Highlight state + Trade button
Selected latch). Mounted via the vendor recipe (nine-slice chrome,
hidden until RegisterTrade). ItemInteractionController's two policy
arms now raise SecureTradeRequested instead of the stub toast; the
drag path queues the dragged item until the window registers
(ClientTradeSystem::AttemptToTradeItem @0x0056DF80's shape).
Register: AD-94 (accept-echo zero-count lists), AD-95 (numeric-only
count texts pending template verification).
Suites: App 4,990/3, Core.Net 905, Runtime 1,626 - all green. The
panel itself is user-gate acceptance (two-client connected trade), the
#372-class lesson: fixture-green alone is not acceptance for a mount.
