HCOneButton v1.29.23

A cleaner HUD, and the next spell you can't miss.

New flat dark look, and the recommended Action Panel slot now really stands out.

Version 1.29.23 restyles the HUD without moving anything. Icons sit on flat, dark slots with a thin frame in the state color, and the spell the Advisor wants is unmistakable on the Action Panel: it glows, pulses and grows slightly while the other slots step back.

Improved — Action Panel highlight

  • Ring, glow and a bigger icon. The recommended slot gets a gold ring and a smooth pulsing glow, with a brighter flash when the recommendation changes. Its icon grows slightly over its own frame, never into the next slot.
  • Focus. While a slot is recommended, the other slots dim so your eye goes straight to the right one.
  • Keys on the icons. Every learned slot prints its binding in short form, as on Blizzard action bars: S4 for SHIFT-4, CS1 for CTRL-SHIFT-1, M4 for mouse button 4. The recommended key turns gold.

Improved — Flat dark theme

  • Cropped icons on flat slots for BASE, the Advisor, the Action Panel and the Survival Strip, with a thin frame that takes the state color (range, cooldown, usable, recommended).
  • Advisor accent. A thin stripe on the left edge and the icon frame follow the badge color: red for danger, amber for caution, blue or green for normal states. The glow now surrounds the icon only.
  • Panels keep a neutral 1px frame; caution and danger still color it.

Example: in a fight the Advisor switches to Shadow Bolt: slot 04 flashes, its gold ring pulses, S4 turns gold on the icon and the other slots dim. Press SHIFT-4 or click it.

Upgrade and safety

  • No reset required. Layout, sizes, saved positions, slot order, permanent bindings, combat history and learned adjustments are preserved.
  • The Diagnostic Pixel is unchanged, so external pixel readers keep working as before.
  • Protected actions still require your click or key press.

Validation and limitations

  • 57 Lua files, 48 Lua regression suites (including 31 new Action Panel highlight checks) and 58 TOC references pass.
  • The new look has been checked in game.
  • The 1.29.21 and 1.29.22 Warlock changes (single-press BASE, leveling, pull started by BASE) have now been checked in game as well.

Compatibility Target

  • World of Warcraft Classic Era / Hardcore — Interface 11509
  • All nine supported classes
  • No additional addon or external program required
  • Learner revision 4, adaptive schema 2, telemetry contract 1, fight schema 14
