Halo

All notable changes to Halo are documented here. The format follows Keep a Changelog, and the project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

Unreleased

1.2.0 - 2026-06-25

Added

• Retail and Classic Era support via per-flavor .toc files (Halo_Mainline.toc, Halo_Vanilla.toc); TBC Anniversary is unchanged. Core collecting and the UI work on all flavors; the opt-in Blizzard buttons are flavor-dependent since some of those frames only exist on certain clients.

1.1.1 - 2026-06-24

Fixed

• Tray now sits at DIALOG strata so quest-tracker text (Questie, etc.) and other MEDIUM-strata UI no longer bleed through the panel; collected buttons are raised to match so they still render above the tray background.

1.1.0 - 2026-06-24

Added

• Drag-to-reorder buttons within the tray (grid mode); order is saved. A ghost icon lifts and follows the cursor while the other tiles glide to open a gap at the drop slot (midpoint targeting), then the ghost flies into place and fades.
• Shared eased-tween engine (UI/Animation.lua) powering the drag/drop motion.
• Radial layout mode — buttons orbit the launcher in a ring.
• Search box that appears once 10+ buttons are collected and filters the tray.
• Profile management UI (create/switch/copy/delete) via AceDB profiles.
• Masque skinning support for the launcher button.
• Options to opt specific Blizzard minimap frames into the tray: Looking For Group, Mail, Tracking, and Battlegrounds (off by default).
• /halo scan diagnostic listing every collected button's render state.

Fixed

• Collected buttons now render inside the tray instead of behind it (LibDBIcon locks its buttons' frame strata via SetFixedFrameStrata; Halo unlocks them and the tray sits at MEDIUM strata to match).
• Buttons no longer escape back to the minimap (Halo takes sole authority over an adopted button's SetPoint).
• Layout is fault-tolerant: one problematic button can't abort the whole tray.
• Quest pins and small map markers are no longer collected (20px size floor).

1.0.0 - 2026-06-23

Added

• Single minimap launcher (LibDBIcon) that gathers all other addon buttons.
• Detection of both LibDBIcon buttons and legacy hand-parented minimap buttons, including buttons that register after login.
• Animated flyout tray with a flat, modern dark theme (fade + scale, hover highlights, soft shadow) laid out in a reflowing grid.
• Custom settings panel via the modern Settings API: columns, tile size, spacing, open-on-hover, auto-hide, tray opacity, tray scale, and a per-button opt-out list.
• Lossless release: opted-out buttons return to the minimap with their original anchors intact.
• Slash commands: /halo, /halo config, /halo reset, /halo help (and /hl).
• Headless CI: luacheck plus a mock-WoW load test that simulates a full session.
• BigWigs packager release workflow.
