Small follow-up to 12.1.1, addressing feedback that timed and permanent buffs looked identical in the new AuraContainer display.

New

  • Timed buffs now read apart from permanent auras. AuraContainer can't tell the addon a buff's duration (that's what lets it work in combat), so the full bar can't be colored per-buff — but the depletion (elapsed-time) fill, which the game draws only on timed auras, is now colored from the Depletion option (blue by default). So a permanent aura shows a solid green bar, while a timed buff (e.g. Battle Shout) shows blue growing in from the right as it runs down.
  • Re-enabled the Depletion color swatch in CT → BuffMod → colors (AuraContainer mode), with live update and reset support.

Notes

  • A freshly-cast long buff briefly looks green until it starts depleting — the only per-buff signal the secure system exposes is the elapsed fill.
  • The depletion color also applies to timed debuffs and weapon enchants (consistent "elapsed = this color").
