AbstractUI v12.0.1.17

AbstractUI v12.0.1.17

New Features

• Tweaks: Added separate color setting for Bountiful Delves
  • Bountiful delves (weekly bonus delves) now display in a distinct color (default: gold)
  • Regular delves use the existing delve pin color (default: cyan/turquoise)
  • Detection works on both world map and minimap using multiple methods:
    • Widget data presence (most reliable)
    • Description text containing "bountiful"
    • Atlas name patterns indicating availability
  • New "Bountiful Delve Pin Color" option in Tweaks settings

Bug Fixes

• MinimapButtons: Fixed attempt to call field '_abstractOriginalClearAllPoints' (a nil value) error by properly saving original SetPoint and ClearAllPoints function references before overriding them
• BrokerBar: Fixed attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'tW' (a secret number value tainted by 'AbstractUI') error by using tonumber() to cleanse tainted values from GetWidth() and GetCenter() calls
• BrokerBar: Fixed bad argument #2 to 'tonumber' (base out of range) error by capturing GetCenter() x-coordinate separately before passing to tonumber()
• Tweaks: Fixed color pickers not displaying current colors in options panel (showing white instead of actual colors) by updating get/set functions to use table format expected by AbstractOptionsPanel
