A click on a remote character's wielded weapon reported nothing. The picker
was already correct: RetailSelectionScene publishes every drawn part under its
own live-entity server GUID and RetailWorldPicker returns the weapon as the
polygon winner. The failure was downstream eligibility - WorldSelectionQuery
required TryGetInteractionEligibleRecord, whose _visible set admits
LiveEntityProjectionKind.World only, so the winning hit was discarded.
Retail has no such gate. Render::GfxObjUnderSelectionRay @ 0x0054C740
accumulates each hit under the drawn part's own physics-object id
(CPhysicsPart::get_physobj_id @ 0x0050D490), and CPhysicsPart::Draw @
0x0050D7A0 admits any drawn part whose physobj id is nonzero. An equipped item
is a first-class CPhysicsObj with its own id and part array
(CPhysicsObj::add_child @ 0x0050F870 via CSetup::GetHoldingLocation @
0x005213F0). There is no parent redirection and no wielded-specific rule, so a
click on a wielded weapon returns THE WEAPON'S GUID. PositionState.WIELDED is
distinct from IN_CONTAINER (acclient.h:6802), so container suppression never
hid a wielded selection either.
LiveEntityRuntime gains two scoped predicates: TryGetAttachedProjectedRecord
(a current Attached projection that is spatially projected) and
TryGetPickEligibleRecord (that arm plus today's World visible-set arm, with
the same WorldEntity.Id staleness recheck). TryGetInteractionEligibleRecord
and the _visible set are deliberately NOT widened - they feed radar,
auto-target, sticky/MoveTo establishment, and CombatAttackTargetSource, and
retail's radar has no wielded blips. A regression test asserts an attached
child stays out of that set while picking admits it.
Marker anchoring had the twin problem. SmartBox::GetObjectBoundingBox @
0x00452E20 pushes the picked object's OWN m_position - which for a child is
the frame CPhysicsObj::UpdateChild @ 0x00512D50 recomposes each tick as
Frame::combine(parent part frame, holding frame) - and
CPartArray::GetSelectionSphere @ 0x00518B80 scales the authored sphere by that
object's own part-array scale. acdream stores the PARENT's root in the child
projection's Position/Rotation because the child's MeshRefs are
parent-relative, which put the vivid brackets at the wielder's feet. The
composed child root is already published per frame to EntityEffectPoseRegistry
by EquippedChildRenderController.PublishChildPose, so selection now borrows it
through an injected Func<uint, Matrix4x4?> wired in LivePresentationComposition
beside the existing selection-sphere hook. There is no parent fallback: a child
with no published composed root has no live frame this tick and no sphere. Its
part-array scale comes from the spawn record, the same source
EquippedChildRenderController.TryRealize reads, because an Attached WorldEntity
carries the parent-derived pose rather than its own ObjScale.
The sr_Use branch of RecvNotice_SmartBoxObjectFound @ 0x004E5AD0 guards
ItemHolder::UseObject with `found->pwd._wielderID != SmartBox::player_id` at
0x004E5BE9 while still selecting and flashing. Equipped-child picking makes
that click reachable, so the gate ships with it as
IWorldSelectionQuery.IsWieldedByPlayer.
CPhysicsObj::SetLighting @ 0x00511A80 is non-recursive, so the pulse lights the
clicked object's own part array only - clicking a weapon never flashes its
wielder. That follows from routing the pulse identity through the same
predicate.
RetailWorldPicker, RetailSelectionScene, WbDrawDispatcher, and
EquippedChildRenderController are untouched, as are all wire and physics paths.
The slice REMOVES an undocumented deviation (Attached projections excluded
from pick eligibility versus retail's part-id pick) and introduces none, so no
retail-divergence-register row is owed in either direction.

The named-retail oracle settles the child-vs-parent question: retail's pick records part->physobj->id (CPhysicsPart::Draw 0x0050D7A0, GfxObjUnderSelectionRay 0x0054C740), equipped children are first-class CPhysicsObjs whose m_position IS the composed hold frame (add_child 0x0050F870, UpdateChild 0x00512D50), so a click on a wielded weapon returns the weapon's own guid with no parent redirection and no wielded-specific gate. Selection, the non-recursive click flash (SetLighting 0x00511A80), and the vivid brackets all anchor to the picked child; only sr_Use on your OWN wielded item is suppressed (0x004E5BE9).
The gap analysis found acdream's picker already correct - equipped children publish selection parts under their own guid and already win the ray test. The failure is downstream eligibility: PickAt requires the World-kind-only interaction set, so the winning hit is discarded. The slice is therefore a scoped pick-eligibility predicate plus a marker anchor sourced from the already-published child root pose - deliberately NOT widening the interaction/radar/auto-target set, which retail also keeps free of wielded items.

Install examination formula icons as the template root UIRegion image, matching retail ClearImage/SetImage behavior while retaining the authored missing-component overlay. Add the real DAT template fixture and conformance coverage.

Resolve spell-examination component cells through their DAT icon DIDs, project scarab and prismatic-taper formulas when ACE disables component enforcement, and version authored window geometry so stale examination sizes reset once without losing user layout behavior.

Port UIElement_ListBox's press-time selection ordering through the shared retained item-list contract. Inventory, loot, paperdoll, and physical shortcuts now update canonical selection before release or drag promotion, while target-mode consumption suppresses drag and release-time activation.
