LibAceGUIWidgets

LibAceGUIWidgets is a shared AceGUI-3.0 widget and styling library — the common UI toolkit behind the TOG suite of addons. It registers reusable, drop-in AceGUI widget types and helpers so addons share one consistent look instead of each rebuilding the same frames.

This is a library, not a standalone addon. It has no UI or settings of its own — you only need it because another addon lists it as a dependency, which CurseForge installs automatically. Embeddable via LibStub.

What it provides

• ClearFrame — a movable, resizable main window with a themed title bar.
• GroupFrame — a lightweight borderless container.
• TLabel — a label + icon widget with tooltip support.
• RowList — a virtualized scrolling data list (sortable headers, alt-row banding, class-color columns, action icons, row-hover callbacks, slim scrollbar).
• Menus & scrolling — an anchored dropdown menu (check-marked rows, click-outside to close, drawn above the window) and a slim-scrollbar scroll box for content that overflows.
• Plus brand/style tokens and small helpers (branded labels, tooltips, resize bounds).

The widgets are addon-agnostic: each consumer supplies its own accent color, class-color table, and tooltip owner, so the library owns structure and styling while your addon keeps its identity. It composes with LibLocaleOverride for localized tab and dropdown fonts.

Requirements

• Ace3 (for AceGUI-3.0) and VersionCheck-1.0.
