The Config tab's footer sat mid-panel with further rows drawing below the
window's bottom edge. Live-DAT measured: the mounted tab-host root is
authored 300x362 (retail's real default window size), but the Config page
slot underneath keeps its own larger design geometry (298x575 against a
300x600 canvas) until retail's real four-edge UiLayoutPolicy
(UIElement::UpdateForParentSizeChange @0x00462640) shrinks it on the first
ApplyAnchor pass -- verified stable, this part already worked.
The actual bug: UiTemplateListBox.Viewport (the UiScrollablePanel that
hosts + clips every row) is a programmatic C# element seeded at Bind time,
BEFORE the tree's first draw frame -- before the ListBox has ever shrunk.
Its legacy anchor baseline is captured lazily on its own first ApplyAnchor
call, which lands AFTER the ListBox has already shrunk earlier in that same
frame (parent-before-child draw order). That capture measures a negative
bottom margin the stretch math preserves forever: the viewport stayed
locked at its original 560px design height, clipping rows to a bound
retail never actually gave the window on screen.
Fix: force the viewport's anchor capture to happen immediately after
seeding it, while its Width/Height still exactly equal a zero-margin
baseline against the CURRENT (pre-shrink) parent, instead of lazily on the
first draw frame against an already-shrunk parent. This is #372's sequel --
#372 fixed the 0x0 collapse case; this is the "ListBox itself later
shrinks" case #372's own fixture never exercised.
Three new tests (UiTemplateListBoxViewportTests using the live-DAT-measured
298x575/276x560 numbers, plus two ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests against
the real production Bind path and the committed host fixture) all fail
pre-fix, confirmed by temporarily reverting the change. Scoped to
UiTemplateListBox's own viewport; UiScrollablePanel/ApplyAnchor/
ComputeAnchoredRect are untouched, so chat's transcript scrolling and every
other UiScrollablePanel/UiItemList consumer are unaffected.

User-directed (2026-08-13): "we should only support modern resolutions.
Not any old format." New DisplayModeCatalog enumerates the window's
monitor (Silk IMonitor.GetAllVideoModes) once at GameWindow load and
curates via a pure, tested rule: modern widescreen families only
(16:9/16:10/21:9/32:9 within 2.5%), at least 1280 wide, must fit the
desktop (an impossible windowed pick is not offered - the measured
3840x2160-on-2560x1440 silent clamp class), desktop mode always
included, refresh-rate duplicates collapsed, ascending order.
The Config Resolution row consumes the catalog through two new optional
Bind parameters; its Defaults value becomes the desktop's own mode.
Fixture/headless callers keep the static preset ladder, which now drops
800x600 and is pinned by test to pass the same curation rule (the OP6 S4
"default must be re-selectable" invariant holds on both paths).
Deliberate retail deviation, register row IA-22: retail listed the
adapter's complete enumeration including 4:3 legacy modes and authored
800x600 as the Config default (gmConfigUI::InitOptions
SetDefaultValue(0x03200258); gmClient::Init @0x004047af). The catalog is
also the designated fullscreen mode-switch validation source for
#376/#388 - an offered mode is supported by construction.
Tests: DisplayModeCatalogTests (8 - filter/clamp/dedupe/sort/ultrawide/
desktop-inclusion/fallback-consistency); ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests
row-12 default updated. App suite 4,961/3 skips; UI.Abstractions 916.

User gate report (Campaign OP happy-testing round, 2026-08-13): every
Config-tab dropdown drew its text gold + left-aligned and its popup a
fixed 6 rows regardless of item count. All three were unmeasured styling
divergences — the authored data (new probe menuprobe3, live DAT) says:
- button label child 0x10000355: fontColor white, hJustify=Center
- row template 0x1000035A: fontColor white, hJustify=Center
- popup ListBox 0x10000358: edge-docked L=T=R=B=1, the authored condition
arming retail UIElement_Menu::RecalculatePopupSize @0x0046caf0 —
popup resizes to the ListBox's summed content height, uncapped
(0x0046e5f4..0046e66c via ResizeScrollableArea's 0x32 broadcast)
UiMenu gains three opt-in properties (ButtonTextCentered,
ItemTextCentered, PopupSizeToContent) plus retail Open @0x0046cc42's
empty-list gate; chat + vendor keep the class defaults, so their shipped
behavior is untouched. ConfigOptionsPageController.ApplyMenuChrome wires
all four corrections for the 8 Config menus with the probe citation.
The same probe found vendor's authored popup ListBox is ALSO docked while
our vendor dropdown ships G5's fixed 6-row window — filed as #386 +
register row AD-88 (UNCLEAR: the G5 retail screenshot and the decomp
mechanism conflict) instead of silently reworking a user-gated surface.
The "resolution change resizes the window" observation from the same
report is #374's designed windowed-mode behavior (display-mode switching
is #376/#377) — no change.

Root cause: PlayerOptionPage::AddSliderOption never sets a row's own
name-label text — the "Inactive Opacity"/"Active Opacity" caption comes
from a SEPARATE DAT-resident runtime catalog (DID 0x78000000, resolved
via the same two-level DBCache::GetDIDFromEnumStatic master-map/submap
lookup ChatOptionsDatDefaults already uses for enum 0x16/category 2,
here for enum 0x15/category 2) that nothing in the codebase ever
queried, so both slider rows rendered with no caption at all.
Fix: new ChatOptionsDatCaptions.TryRead resolves the DID-0x78000000
catalog's per-property name/tooltip entries (matched by the same
owning-property enum ChatOptionsDatDefaults already keys its defaults
by) and ChatOptionsPageController.BuildOpacitySliders stamps each
slider's own row caption/tooltip from it — falling back to no text
(never invented English) if resolution fails. Regressed by
ChatOptionsPageControllerTests.
Bind_WiresEachSlidersOwnRowCaption_FromTheResolvedDatCatalog and the
companion Bind_MissingCaption_RendersNoText_NeverInventsEnglish case,
plus a live-mount probe (OptionsPanelLiveMountProbeTests.
ProbeChatOpacityCaptions) confirming the production TryRead call
resolves "Inactive Opacity"/"Active Opacity" against the real DAT.

Root cause: DatWidgetFactory builds Config-tab Type-0x10000038 menu
leaves as bare UiMenu instances (matching the vendor/chat channel menu
pattern), but unlike those two controllers, ConfigOptionsPageController
never wired the menu's sprite/font/geometry properties after Bind — so
every dropdown rendered as plain text with no button well, no arrow
cap, and opened no popup on click (#374's fix only corrected click
ROUTING, not the missing chrome).
Fix: ConfigOptionsPageController.ApplyMenuChrome wires every Config-tab
menu row with the SAME retail sprite ids VendorUiController/
ChatWindowController's channel menu already use for this shared popup
catalog (LayoutDesc 0x21000043), verified against the live DAT via
OptionsPanelLiveMountProbeTests' ProbeConfigMenuChrome/
ProbeConfigMenuPopupChrome probes. Regressed by
ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests.MenuRow_SoundFeatures_OpensAndSelects
ThroughRealHitPath_UsingAuthoredPopupGeometry, which drives the real
click-to-open + item-pick path through the authored popup geometry.

User directive (gate 2, verbatim): "mark all options that are not
implemented now, so I can clearly see what is not implemented." Store-only
rows keep full interactivity (still persist/send) but render their caption
in a shared dimmed grey (UiRenderContext.StoreOnlyCaptionColor, matching
the existing UiMenu.TextColorGhosted convention) instead of white/DAT
color. No invented marker text anywhere -- the dim IS the marker.
Config tab (ConfigOptionsPageController, 21 of 27 rows dimmed):
Sound Features menu, Interface Sound trio, Play Sound Only When Active
(AP-199); Screen Brightness, Automatic Degrades, Graphics Performance,
Degrade Distance, the four Rendering Quality menus, Building Detail
Textures, Multi-Pass Alpha (AP-198); Camera Stiffness, Camera Adjustment
Speed, Align To Slope, Mouse Look Sensitivity, Invert Mouselook Y Axis,
Use Mouse Turning (TS-74); Chat Font Face/Size (AP-200). NOT dimmed:
Sound/Ambient trios, Resolution, Full Screen (LIVE), VSync and Field of
View (NEXT-LAUNCH -- still implemented, just deferred to next process
start, per the controller's own doc).
Character tab (CharacterOptionsPageController, 35 of 50 rows dimmed):
every Group A (wire+store only) and Group D (deferred) row, plus the
Group B rows the OP4 gate script's own step 16 confirms are unbound
(ShowTooltips, SideBySideVitals, SpellDuration, AdvancedCombatUI,
StayInChatMode, DisableMostWeatherEffects, PersistentAtDay,
FilterLanguage, MainPackPreferred). NOT dimmed (15 rows): the six
ListenTo*Chat ids (TurbineChatMembershipGate), DisableDistanceFog/
DisplayTimeStamps/ToggleRun (bound at GameWindow.cs), the Group-C
re-point (ViewCombatTarget/VividTargetingIndicator/CoordinatesOnRadar/
AutoTarget/AutoRepeatAttack), and DragItemOnPlayerOpensSecureTrade
(TS-48). Cross-checked against actual shipped consumers via source grep,
not just the research doc's Group table, since OP4 only wired a subset
of the doc's aspirational Group B.
Configure Keyboard (KeyboardConfigController): a row whose
RetailActionIdentityTable lookup fails (MappedAction null -- AP-203's
Emote/CharacterSettings set) dims its synthesized caption; the key
buttons stay fully bindable/persisted/conflict-checked.
Chat tab (ChatOptionsPageController): audited, zero store-only rows --
every filter block and both opacity sliders already have a live consumer
(ChatWindowState / RetailWindowOpacityController).
Ambiguity flagged, not guessed: the character-options-map.md research doc
lists AcceptLootPermits in BOTH Group A and Group C; its only code site
(LiveSessionRuntimeFactory.cs, the /consent command) is a second setter
for the same server bit, not a behavioral reader, so it is classified
Group A / dimmed here.
Register: AD-78 documents the convention (retail dims nothing; this is a
deliberate acdream-only divergence that retires as consumers land).
New per-surface conformance tests pin the exact dimmed/live set against a
literal expected list, so wiring a future consumer without also flipping
its row's literal fails the build:
CharacterOptionsPageControllerTests.StoreOnlyRows_MatchTheDerivationTableExactly
+ Bind_AppliesDimmedCaptionColor_ForStoreOnlyRows_AndWhiteForLiveRows,
ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests.CaptionDimming_MatchesTheStoreOnlySetExactly,
KeyboardConfigControllerTests.UnmappedRows_DimTheirCaption_MappedRowsStayWhite.
Build green; full Release suite 13,086 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 13,082/4/0 -- delta is exactly the four new tests above).

Fixes all three MUST-FIX findings from the OP6 REJECT review
(docs/research/2026-08-11-op6-review.md) plus its SHOULD-FIXes and NOTEs.
M1 — the "retail ships zero range captions" claim was a Binary Ninja
constant-folding artifact (the same class the header-string globals a few
lines above already worked around). The six SetSliderLabel call sites
byte-decode to reads of runtime-filled ID_Graphics_Value_* globals, not
immediate zeros (PE-byte-verified against the PDB-paired acclient.exe,
independently re-derived in this session, not just re-asserted from the
review). ConfigOptionsPageController.BuildSliderRow gained optional
rangeLowKey/rangeHighKey parameters wired for all six idx6 sliders (Camera
Stiffness Soft/Hard, Adjustment Speed Slow/Fast, FOV Narrow/Wide, Screen
Brightness Dark/Bright, Graphics Performance Speed/Detail, Degrade Distance
Close/Far) via the same SetRangeLabel mechanism OP5's Chat opacity sliders
already established. Mouse Look Sensitivity (idx3) correctly stays
uncaptioned — the one genuine SetSliderLabel omission. Class doc corrected;
gate-script lines 535/653-equivalent corrected in place.
M2 — the three Sound "Disabled" toggles were semantically inverted:
SoundManager::effect_sounds_enabled/ambient_sounds_enabled/
interface_sounds_enabled are all compiled = 1 in .data, and
UserPreferences::RegisterPreference binds the checkbox's boolean value
DIRECTLY onto those enabled-sense statics — checked-by-default means
enabled-by-default, not disabled. AudioSettings.SfxDisabled/AmbientDisabled/
InterfaceDisabled renamed to SfxEnabled/AmbientEnabled/InterfaceEnabled
(fresh JSON keys — the rejected slice's keys never shipped in an accepted
build); RuntimeSettingsStartupTargets.ApplyAudio now computes effective
volume through the extracted, independently-unit-tested pure function
ComputeEffectiveCategoryVolumes (enabled ? slider : 0f). This closes the
blast radius the review flagged: a missing key in an EXISTING settings.json
now falls back to AudioSettings.Default, which is enabled=true, so a fresh
launch is audible, not muted. AP-199's wording and gate-script step 6
corrected; the enshrined-inversion test rewritten to assert the correct
default and a new SettingsStore test pins the legacy-file fallback path.
M3 — UI_ChatFontFace now ships all five of retail's authored choices
(Arial, CourierNew, PalatinoLinotype, Tahoma, TimesNewRoman — a fixed
compile-time array at gmClient::InitUIPreferences, PE-byte-verified
present verbatim in .rdata, not a per-machine runtime enumeration as the
rejected slice's comment claimed). Default index 2 (PalatinoLinotype) now
indexes a real entry.
S1 — Bind() now emits the sixth trailing AddSeperator retail's own
InitOptions ends with (0x0049E80D), matching retail's 39-item ListBox (6
headers + 6 separators + 27 option-widget-rows) instead of 38.
S2 — Screen Brightness gets its own DisplaySettings.ScreenBrightness field
([-1,1], default 0) instead of overloading Gamma, which has a different
unit system (default 1.0, legacy [0.5,2.0] slider) and its own live
Settings-panel consumer.
S3 — UiScrollbar and UiMenu gained a settable TooltipText surfaced through
GetTooltipText (UiButton's existing pattern). Every slider and menu row's
own interactive widget (not just toggle/trio rows) now carries retail's
"<label>_Help" tooltip, verified as a universal suffix convention across
every AttachPreference site touched by this tab.
S4 — "800x600" added to DisplaySettings.AvailableResolutions: a genuine
retail display mode (Device::ForceDisplayResolution(1,0x320,0x258) at
startup) and the Config tab's own byte-verified Resolution row default, not
an invented preset. Defaults now lands on a highlighted, re-selectable
dropdown entry instead of an orphaned value.
S5 — four new/extended tests: ComputeEffectiveCategoryVolumes gets a
dedicated pure-function value assertion (Theory + a default-profile-is-
audible Fact) in RuntimeSettingsControllerTests, closing the "only event
order was asserted" gap that let M2 ship; a label/choice-key conformance
table in ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests enumerates every key this tab
queries (traced directly from the fixed code paths, not guessed) and fails
on an invented OR a dropped key; a per-row DefaultValue pin asserts every
row's default against the retail literal directly, independent of the
underlying settings-record defaults; and the S1 separator fix gets its own
39-item stacked-ListBox count pin.
NOTEs — AP-198's row count was always ten (its own enumeration never said
nine); the commit-message inconsistency N1 flagged is reconciled in both
the row and the section-summary line, and its Screen Brightness sub-clause
now matches S2. N2: Bind() now reads the scrollbar id from
UiTemplateListBox.ScrollbarElementId (dat property 0x72) instead of a
hardcoded constant. N3 (batch Defaults writes) and N4 (AfterApply on
Config-tab entry, needs no action) are left as recorded — out of this
rework's scope per the review's own disposition.
Full Release suite: 13,125 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
13,117/4/0 — net +8 tests added, 0 regressions, 0 removed).

Fixes the OP5 (Chat tab) dual-lens review findings against e71e5a96:
- M1 (MUST-FIX): each opacity row's own apply closure now pushes its OWN
slider's thumb from the post-link truth (bindings.Current*Opacity()),
mirroring the OP4 binding pattern. Before this, a single-slider drag
followed by Reset reverted the live value/link but left that slider's
own thumb stuck at the dragged position.
- S1 (SHOULD-FIX): the Chat tab's two opacity sliders no longer round-trip
the whole settings.json on every drag MouseMove tick. UiScrollbar gains
IsDragging + a DragCompleted callback (fires once, at the MouseUp that
ends an actual thumb drag); the opacity apply closures flush immediately
when not mid-drag (Reset/Defaults/discrete edits, same as before) and
defer to DragCompleted otherwise, collapsing dozens of per-tick writes
into exactly one per drag gesture. Live opacity still applies every tick.
- S2 (SHOULD-FIX): filed register row AP-201 and issue #371 for the
UiScrollablePanel whole-row-cull-vs-clip divergence the review found
(predates OP5, made user-visible by OP5's 240-260px filter blocks). Not
fixed in this round (a renderer-level scissor stack is out of scope
here) — corrected the OP5 connected-gate script instead so a straddling
block's disappear-then-reappear-whole is no longer reported as a
self-sizing regression.
- S3 (SHOULD-FIX): the chatWindowMainFilter round-trip test already
existed in e71e5a96 (the review missed it scrolling past line 330);
added the genuinely missing coverage instead — a composed test pinning
RetailUiRuntime.MountChat's window-0 SettingsStore -> ChatWindowState
seed (MountChat itself needs live DAT access and isn't unit-testable
directly).
- N11: ScrollbarLinkage_ModelPointsAtTheChatListBoxScroll now asserts
through the scoped page-slot lookup (UiElement.FindDescendant) instead
of the flat layout.FindElement, which passed for the wrong reason given
the shared scrollbar id 0x10000201 — matches OP6's own scrollbar-linkage
test pattern.
Also updated ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests' local ChatOptionsPageController
Bindings fake for the new FlushOpacity parameter.
Full Release suite: 13,117 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline 13,107/4/0
post-OP6 — 10 tests added, zero skips added, zero failures).

Binds the retail Options panel's Config tab (LayoutDesc 0x21000029, 27
authored rows across 6 sections) through OP2's template mechanism and
OP3's per-page OptionPage model, matching the Character/Chat tab
controllers' established pattern.
The row table is transcribed directly from two decompiled sources —
gmConfigUI::InitOptions @0x0049E400 (row order, widget shape, defaults)
and gmClient::InitUIPreferences @0x004035b0 (the complete
UIPreferences::AttachPreference registration: every label/tooltip key,
every slider's real-unit range, every menu's enum choices) — which
resolves the research docs' own "U4" unverified slider-caption pairing:
retail ships ZERO range captions on this tab (every SetSliderLabel call
passes literal string id 0).
Consumer disposition: LIVE — Sound/Ambient volume-trio sliders and their
toggle halves (AudioSettings.SfxDisabled/AmbientDisabled now gate the
already-live engine write; RuntimeSettingsController.SaveAudio newly
pushes into OpenAlAudioEngine on every change, not just at startup),
Resolution/Full Screen (immediate window resize on save). NEXT-LAUNCH
(pre-existing precedent): Sync To Refresh, Field of View. STORE-ONLY
(register rows AP-198/199/200, TS-74 extended): Sound Features/Interface
trio/Play-Only-When-Active, the nine Graphics/Rendering-Quality rows
(Vulkan has no per-feature render knobs), Camera/Input's six rows and
Use Mouse Turning (no persistent mouse-turning camera mode), Chat Font
Face/Size (distinct new fields from the existing live ChatSettings.FontSize).
AudioSettings/DisplaySettings/CameraTurningSettings/ChatSettings each
gain new fields for their slice of the 27 rows, backed by SettingsStore
round-trips. A real bug caught by testing: the scrollbar scope lookup
used the standalone-layout root id (0x100001FF), which does not survive
base-merge into the host-mounted tree — fixed to scope from the tab
host's own page-slot id (0x10000213), matching Chat's established
pattern for the same shared-scrollbar-id hazard (0x10000201, authored by
both the Chat and Config ListBoxes).
30 new tests (27 authored rows register as 30 IOptionRow instances — the
three toggle+slider trios each register two). Full Release suite:
13,107 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (was 13,083/4/0 — net +24, the one
existing RuntimeSettingsControllerTests case updated for SaveAudio's new
live-apply call, not a regression).
