ToAnchors was inverted vs retail UIElement::UpdateForParentSizeChange @0x00462640:
stretch is RightEdge==1 (not ==2/==4), LeftEdge==2 = track-right. Verified against
all 19 vitals fixture pieces. Enables Resizable/ResizeX on the importer vitals root
(the prior 'dat is fixed-size' conclusion was wrong). At-rest render unchanged
(anchors only fire on resize). Added a 160->200 resize conformance test.
Also fixed DatWidgetFactoryTests.RectAndAnchors_SetFromElementInfo which encoded
the old inverted model (Right=2 expecting Right anchor; corrected to Right=1).

Process/quality items from the LayoutDesc-importer final review — no runtime
behavior change.
I1a — amend IA-15: the 8-piece chrome edge/corner→position mapping is no longer
a guess. The LayoutImporter (ACDREAM_RETAIL_UI_IMPORTER) reads real LayoutDesc
dat data and resolves positions + sprite ids directly; locked by the conformance
fixture vitals_2100006C.json. Residual risk trimmed to anchor resolution at
non-800×600 + controls.ini cascade. Pointers added to LayoutImporter.cs and the
format-doc.
I1b — add AP-32: the importer collapses the dat's nested meter structure
(Type-7 → two Type-3 containers → three image-slice grandchildren each) into
UiMeter's programmatic 3-slice fields instead of building those nodes generically
and porting UIElement_Meter::DrawChildren. Standalone Type-0 text elements are
also skipped (Plan 2). Retail oracles: UIElement_Meter::DrawChildren @0x46fbd0,
UIElement_Text::DrawSelf @0x467aa0.
I1c — AP section header 31 → 32.
N1 — ElementReader.cs: comment at the Type-merge line explaining that a derived
Type 0 (text element) inherits the base's Type 12 (style prototype), which
DatWidgetFactory skips; safe for Plan 1 because vitals numbers render via
UiMeter.Label. Format-doc §10: correct the "render as UiDatElement" sentence to
"skipped entirely" (Type-0 → inherits Type-12 via Merge → factory returns null).
N4 — new conformance test VitalsTree_TextLabel_InheritsFontDidFromBaseLayout:
walks the raw ElementInfo tree from the fixture and asserts at least one element
carries FontDid==0x40000000, proving Resolve()'s inheritance merge fired against
real dat data. FixtureLoader gains LoadVitalsInfos() that returns the raw tree
without calling Build.
Tests: 36 pass (was 35), 0 errors, 0 warnings.

Resolves all 6 open unknowns for Tasks 2–6 of the LayoutDesc importer plan:
1. Edge-anchor flags: 1=near-pin, 2=far-pin, 3=float-center, 4=stretch.
The plan's assumption of 4="pinned to that side" is corrected — 1 is
the near-pin, 4 is stretch (both sides). Revised ToAnchors signature given.
2. ElementDesc members: all are public FIELDS (not properties). X/Y/Width/
Height/LeftEdge/etc. are uint. Type is uint (not enum). States is
Dictionary<UIStateId, StateDesc>. Children is Dictionary<uint, ElementDesc>.
3. StateDesc shape: Properties is Dictionary<uint, BaseProperty> with concrete
subclasses (ArrayBaseProperty, DataIdBaseProperty, IntegerBaseProperty, etc.).
Font DID (0x1A) is ArrayBaseProperty[ DataIdBaseProperty{Value=0x40000000} ].
Font color (0x1B) is ArrayBaseProperty[ ColorBaseProperty ]. Fill (0x69) is
NOT in the dat — pushed at runtime by gmVitalsUI::Update.
4. DrawModeType enum: Undefined=0, Normal=1, Overlay=2, Alphablend=3.
No "Stretch" value exists. Vitals uses Normal(1) and Alphablend(3) only.
5. Type values confirmed from RegisterElementClass: 3=Field/container,
7=Meter→UiMeter, 9=Resizebar, 0xC=Text, 2=Dragbar, 12=style prototype (skip).
6. Inheritance chain: vitals text labels (Type=0) inherit from base element
0x10000376 in layout 0x2100003F (Type=12), which carries font DID 0x40000000.
The full per-vital sprite id tables for 0x2100006C are confirmed.
