Vertex color animations
A new VertexColor animation type has been added that can be used to animate changes to vertex colors on textures. This appears to be implemented as a simple linear interpolation of the individual RGBA color components without any translation to an alternative color space.
The example below demonstrates a two second looping animation that will transition the vertex color from red to blue and then back again.
local Texture = UIParent:CreateTexture()
Texture:SetTexture([[Interface\Buttons\White8x8]])
Texture:SetPoint("CENTER")
Texture:SetSize(128, 128)
local AnimationGroup = Texture:CreateAnimationGroup()
AnimationGroup:SetLooping("BOUNCE")
local VertexColor = AnimationGroup:CreateAnimation("VertexColor")
VertexColor:SetStartColor(CreateColor(1, 0, 0))
VertexColor:SetEndColor(CreateColor(0, 0, 1))
VertexColor:SetDuration(2)
AnimationGroup:Play()
For usages from XML, refer to the elements shown below.
<AnimationGroup looping="BOUNCE">
<VertexColor duration="2">
<StartColor r="1" g="0" b="0"/>
<EndColor r="0" g="0" b="1"/>
</VertexColor>
</AnimationGroup>
Color picker changes
The global color picker frame (ColorPickerFrame) has been overhauled and now includes a hex color input field.
One notable breaking change is that the OpenColorPicker global function has been relocated to ColorPickerFrame:SetupColorPickerAndShow. This function still accepts exactly the same parameters as before, so addons will only need to rename this reference and should otherwise continue to work.
Ping system changes
A new convenience template has been added to make it easier to opt unit frames into being ping receivers.
Inheriting from PingableUnitFrameTemplate will now cause intercepted pings to be directed to a unit token controllable via the "unit" attribute on the frame. This change should make it easier for custom unit frames - particularly those created by secure headers - to handle ping interactions correctly without any additional manual setup.
Additionally, the following APIs have been relocated from the C_PingSecure namespace to C_Ping and are now callable by insecure code.
Hotfixes
In build 10.2.5 (53441) on 2024-02-23 the following CVars were made secure.
autoStand autoUnshift SoftTargetEnemy SoftTargetEnemyRange SoftTargetForce SoftTargetInteract SoftTargetInteractRange
The synchronizeMacros and synchronizeSettings CVars were removed.
