R2-1/R2-6 (description-box text clipped left of the frame, regressed from
Batch C's frame un-consume): root cause was never the un-consume change
itself — the Heritage/Profession/Town/Summary description boxes
(0x100003C4/0x100003E0/0x10000409/0x10000404) all author retail's four
independent text-inset margins (dat properties 0x23-0x26,
UIElement_Text::OnSetAttribute cases 0xf-0x12: margL=9/margR=26/margU=15/
margD=15), which this codebase never read at all, before or after Batch C.
Un-consuming the gold-frame children just made the pre-existing missing-
margin bug visible for the first time (the frame's own left border now
draws around the same x=0 origin text always used). Fixed end to end:
ElementInfo.MarginLeft/Right/Top/Bottom (read in
ApplyCanonicalLegacyProjection, propagated in Merge), UiText.MarginLeft/
Right/Top/Bottom (additive with the pre-existing Padding), a new pure
UiText.ContentOffsetX static consumed by the multi-line draw path's
per-line placement, and matching wrap-width shrinkage in
DatRichText.Compose and BuildText's own authored-multiline path. Scoped to
the multi-line (non-OneLine) path only.
R2-2/R2-3 (Attribute\n Credits renders the literal backslash-n; the live
credit value overlaps mid-caption): two stacked gaps. (1) UiButton
captions never escape-normalized the DAT's literal "\n" — centralized the
normalize into DatWidgetFactory's ResolveAuthoredString (the one choke
point every P0x17 resolution already shares) plus a NormalizeEscapes
helper for the per-state caption loop, so every caller normalizes
identically. (2) UiButton.Label only ever drew one line — retail's
UIElement_Button IS a UIElement_Text with OneLine=false on these buttons,
so a caption should word-wrap/stack like any other Type-12 box. Added
UiButton.DrawBlockLabel + the pure, unit-tested WrapBlockLines. The
value-overlap itself: ValueBox was never wrong (live-DAT-measured correct
child rects) — the caption was drawing unconfined across the button's
full width ("Available Skill Credits" measures 193px in a 231px button
whose value box starts at x=116). Fixed by confining the caption's own
drawable width to stop before ValueBox.X whenever a ValueLabel coexists.
R2-7a (Summary overview listbox missing its scrollbar): pure wiring gap —
the listbox authors a linked scrollbar via dat property 0x72
(ScrollbarElementId=0x10000401) that CharacterCreationSummaryPage's
constructor never resolved, unlike every other UiTemplateListBox owner in
the codebase. Fixed with the same resolve-and-wire pattern.
R2-7b (how-to box scrollbar overlaps text, no thumb): traced to a
downstream symptom of R2-1, not an independent bug — UiScrollbar only
paints its thumb when the linked model has overflow, and the pre-fix wrap
width (un-inset) produced fewer/shorter lines than fit the view. Pinned
directly against the real installed strings/font (Aluvian's how-to text)
that the margin-correct width overflows. No UiScrollbar code changed.
R2-8 (name field should show "[ Name ]"): re-checked the one hypothesis
Batch A's GF-15 closure left open — an authored initial-text string on
the field's own P0x17. Confirmed absent on every state in the installed
DAT. No code change; Batch A's closure stands, now pinned as a live-DAT
regression test.
App suite 5334/3 (was 5321/3, +13, zero regressions). Runtime 1735/0
unchanged. Full solution Release build green.
