Commit 1/3: chargen-scoped, low blast-radius fixes.
- New DatRichText helper: escape-normalize + word-wrap + per-segment
palette color, porting UIElement_Text::SetStringInfoWithFont /
AppendStringInfoWithFont's composition model. Routes the Heritage
(GF-2), Town (GF-11a), and Profession (GF-3) description boxes
through it instead of a raw unwrapped single-Line LinesProvider.
Heritage headers use font-color palette index 1 (green), bodies
index 0 (white), matching AppendStringInfoWithFont's own font-index
argument. Town's diagnosed GF-11a root cause: a single un-wrapped
line meant the town-specific suffix rendered past the clipped
viewport, so switching towns looked like "text never changes" even
though the underlying composed string genuinely differed.
- GF-3: bind the Profession page's description textbox (0x100003e0,
gmCGProfessionPage::InitializePage @0x00483068) and compose its
per-template text (UpdateProfession @0x004821b0's CustomText/
BowText/SwashText/LifeText/WarText/WayText/SoldierText, plain
SetStringInfo — no palette).
- GF-4: UiButton gains a coexisting ValueLabel/ValueBox/ValueFont/
ValueColor slot alongside Label. Retail's chargen display buttons
(avail/health/stamina/mana credits, 0x100003e2-e5/0x100003f9)
author their caption directly on P0x17 AND carry a separate,
media-less Type-12 value child that UiButton.ConsumesDatChildren
used to drop entirely — pages substituted the button's own Label,
destroying the caption. DatWidgetFactory.BuildButton now surfaces
that child (gated on ReferenceEquals(labelInfo, info) — own-caption
buttons only) instead. The six Profession slider name labels
(0x100002ed, CharGenState::GetAttributeName @0x005C3A20's six
hardcoded literals) resolve as UiButton in this port (live-DAT-
measured Type 1 — retail's UIElement_Button is DynamicCast(0xc)-
compatible with UIElement_Text) and are written once at
construction, matching retail's own single InitializePage write.
- GF-6/AP-218: gmCGAppearancePage::Update writes a heritage-flavored
STATIC caption to the Hair/Eyes/Skin spins (plain / GearText_* /
OlthoiText_* variants) — never an index. Removed the prior 1-based-
ordinal/gear-name substitution entirely; the other six spins keep
their DAT-authored caption untouched, matching retail exactly.
- Root 1d: wire the Heritage (0x100003be, 13 states) and Profession
(0x100003d8, 7 states) backdrop SetState cascades
(gmCGHeritagePage::Update / gmCGProfessionPage::UpdateProfession).
- AP-216/AP-217 (partial, register updated honestly): swatches beyond
the current part's real color count now hide (DoColorSpots' blank-
blit half); the GradCircle now blanks for Eyes (DoGradDisk's blank-
plug half). The "paint with the actual represented/current color"
halves stay open — they need a PalSet/Palette-id -> RGB pipeline no
chargen page reads at runtime yet, judged disproportionate to add
alongside this batch's other ~10 fixes.
Register: AP-215 rewritten (item 2's "ordinal" framing is stale after
GF-6; restated as the icon-thumbnail gap), AP-216/AP-217 rewritten
(partially closed), AP-218 retired, AD-103 retired (the swallowed-
child Label substitution AD-103 tracked is replaced by ValueLabel's
own-geometry surfacing).
22 new tests (DatRichText unit tests, UiButton/DatWidgetFactory
ValueLabel tests, live-DAT structural pins, controller behavioral
tests) — all green. Full App suite (Release, live-DAT):
5300 passed / 1 pre-existing unrelated flake (PortalProjectionTests
allocation test, passes in isolation) / 3 skipped, up from the
baseline 5282/3.
