+- **Theme-Crossfade.** Theme-Wechsel blenden jetzt sanft über rund 300 ms ineinander, statt hart umzuschalten. Alle Hellion-Flächen gleiten mit: Sidebar, Titel, Buttons, Tabs, Scrollbar, Trennlinien. Der Fenster-Hintergrund snappt bewusst weiter, damit das Per-Window-Deckkraft-Setting aus Dalamuds Pinning-Menü unangetastet bleibt.
+- **Header-Quick-Picker.** Neuer Paletten-Button links vom Zahnrad im Chat-Header. Ein Klick öffnet ein kompaktes Popup mit zwei Sektionen: alle Built-in- und Custom-Themes sowie alle Tabs. Der aktive Eintrag trägt ein Häkchen, ein Klick wechselt ohne das Popup zu schließen. So lassen sich mehrere Wechsel hintereinander erledigen, ohne den Umweg über die Einstellungen.
+- **Sanfte Hover-Animationen.** Sidebar-Icons faden bei Hover sanft von gedimmt auf volle Deckkraft. Card-Mode-Trennlinien heben sich beim Überfahren einer Zeile für den ganzen Tab dezent ab. Beides framerate-unabhängig gerechnet, also auch bei Wine-Stall-Frames stabil.
+- **Bewegung reduzieren.** Neuer Toggle im Tab für Theme und Layout. Er deaktiviert Crossfade, Hover-Animationen und das Pulsieren ungelesener Tabs für alle, die eine statische Oberfläche bevorzugen.
+- Drei P3-Items plus der Accessibility-Toggle, kein Schema-Bump, keine Migration. Eine kleine Polish-Welle vor den größeren Cycles.

+    **v1.5.4 — Polish and Motion (2026-05-20)**
+
+    A polish cycle: smoother theme switching, faster theme and tab
+    access, and subtle hover motion. Three P3 items plus an
+    accessibility toggle.
+
+    User-visible:
+
+    - Theme switches now crossfade smoothly over ~300 ms across every
+      Hellion-rendered surface — sidebar, title, buttons, tabs,
+      scrollbar, separators. The window background snaps deliberately
+      so the per-window opacity override from Dalamud's pinning menu
+      stays untouched.
+    - New header quick-picker: a palette button left of the cog opens
+      a compact popup with two sections — every built-in and custom
+      theme, and every tab. The active entry carries a check glyph;
+      clicking another switches without closing the popup.
+    - Sidebar icons ease their opacity on hover, and card-mode message
+      borders highlight per tab while the cursor is over their rows.
+      Framerate-independent, so a stalled Wine frame cannot overshoot
+      the animation.
+    - New "Reduce motion" toggle in Theme & Layout disables the
+      crossfade, the hover animations and the unread-tab pulse for
+      users who prefer a static UI.
+
+    Under the hood:
+
+    - Two pure-helper lerp paths (ThemeAbgrCacheLerp, FrameLerp) with
+      xUnit coverage in the Build Suite, plus a ColourUtil.ApplyAlpha
+      alpha modulator. Two new /xlperf self-test steps pin the
+      crossfade and quick-picker contracts.
+
+    No schema bump, no migration. Migration v17 stays.
+
+    Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

-    **v1.5.0 — DI Foundation and Service Refactor (2026-05-17)**
-
-    Major architecture cycle. The plugin bootstrap moves to a
-    generic-host DI container (Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting +
-    IServiceCollection) modelled on Lightless Sync. Service logging
-    moves from a static Plugin.LogProxy locator to typed
-    Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger<T> via constructor injection,
-    bridged over Dalamud's IPluginLog by a custom DalamudLogger trio.
-
-    What changes under the hood:
-
-    - 18 instance-class services migrate to ILogger<T> via constructor
-      injection across four slices: data layer (MessageStore,
-      MessageManager, AutoTellTabsService), IPC and integrations
-      (HonorificService, IpcManager, TypingIpc, ExtraChat, the three
-      GameFunctions classes), UI window layer (ChatLogWindow,
-      DbViewer, Popout, three settings tabs), and root (Commands,
-      ThemeRegistry, PayloadHandler).
-    - Plugin.LogProxy stays in place for the eight buckets ctor
-      injection cannot reach: static helpers (EmoteCache,
-      AutoTranslate, MemoryUtil, WrapperUtil), Dalamud-reflected
-      types (Configuration), the Message data class, and instance
-      classes that only log from static methods (FontManager, one
-      GameFunctions site).
-    - Plugin.cs finishes at 1012 lines — virtually identical to the
-      pre-cycle 1013. The new Phase-1 host build and Plugin.X bridge
-      wiring trade out exactly the service and window allocations
-      that previously lived in LoadAsync.
-    - Cross-plugin baseline confirms no performance penalty against
-      Chat 2: HellionChat first-frame HITCH 77 ms median, Chat 2
-      74 ms median. Lightless and XIVInstantMessenger sit around
-      7 ms by deferring their font-atlas build past Finished
-      loading — that pattern is the v1.5.1 follow-up.
-
-    User-visible:
-
-    - Slash-command insert fix: pasting a slash command into the
-      chat input (Friend List "/tell" action, plugin-driven inserts
-      from Artisan, AllaganTools etc.) now replaces the existing
-      input instead of concatenating. Cherry-picked from ChatTwo
-      upstream ee7768ac with namespace adaptation.
-
-    Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).
-
-    Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

JonKazama-Hellion	a42cc2a97e	test(selftest): pin v1.5.4 crossfade and quick-picker contracts ThemeCrossfadeSelfTestStep walks Switch -> crossfade-observed -> mid-crossfade-switch -> crossfade-end -> restore using TryGetActiveCrossfade, returns Waiting frame-by-frame and Pass after the restore concludes. The mid-switch phase fires a second Switch within ~100ms of the first observed crossfade and asserts the lerped value is neither identity-from nor identity-to, exercising the ArmCrossfade mid-flight-origin override. QuickPickerSelfTestStep verifies the three new resource strings, the built-in theme floor (>=10), and Config.Tabs non-empty.	2026-05-20 16:21:29 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	96ff4ddfd8	feat(ui): lerp sidebar-icon and card-mode-border hover alphas Sidebar icons ease from 40% to 100% alpha on hover-in via FrameLerp plus ApplyAlpha. Card-mode borders aggregate row-hover per tab and lift the border alpha by up to ~+0x70 across every row in that tab. borderColorAbgr moves into the loop so the per-iteration boost can apply. ReduceMotion snaps both paths instantly. Card-hover detection uses IsMouseHoveringRect over the row bounds -- IsItemHovered would only see the 2px spacer dummy below each row.	2026-05-20 14:42:21 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	0bfe3a62cb	feat: add FrameLerp helper and per-tab hover-alpha fields FrameLerp.Smooth is the framerate-independent smoothing path -- a Umbra-style v += (target - v) * factor with the factor clamped to 1 so a stalled frame snaps cleanly instead of overshooting. Tab gets two NonSerialized fields (_hoverAlpha, _cardHoverAlpha) that the v1.5.4 render loops drive.	2026-05-20 13:26:16 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	01a7f9b4ec	feat(ui): add header quick-picker for themes and tabs Palette button left of the cog opens a two-section popup. The themes section enumerates AllBuiltIns + AllCustom; the tabs section enumerates Config.Tabs. The active entry gets a leading check-glyph, inactive rows a same-width blank so labels stay aligned. Click selects without closing the popup (DontClosePopups). Theme click triggers the PM-1 crossfade via ThemeRegistry.Switch; tab click routes through ChangeTab so LastActivityTime stays consistent with the sidebar and top-bar click paths. The header input-width reservation now counts the new button plus the per-button SameLine spacing -- the old formula dropped the spacing term and overflowed the row once a third button appeared.	2026-05-20 12:48:31 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	0237602ab7	feat(util): add ColourUtil.ApplyAlpha for hover-lerp modulation Alpha-only modulator for ABGR colors -- RGB stays intact, factor clamped to [0, 1]. Used by the v1.5.4 PM-3 hover-lerp path.	2026-05-20 11:20:48 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	a600f014eb	i18n: add quick-picker strings and reduce-motion settings toggle Five new keys across the EN source plus 24 locale variants (DE plus 23 AI-assisted, each carrying the pending-review marker): the header quick-picker tooltip and two section headers, plus name and description for a new ReduceMotion checkbox. ReduceMotion was a config field with no UI -- the checkbox lands in the Theme & Layout tab's window-style section. Designer.cs hand-edited as a v1.5.4 block matching the v1.4.8 convention.	2026-05-20 11:07:45 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	a35067f80a	feat(ui): wire ThemeRegistry crossfade into PushGlobal Switch picks a lerped AbgrCache during the 300ms crossfade window (ReduceMotion bypass keeps the snap path). Plugin-load init path switches to SwitchSilent so opening the plugin no longer fades from the default theme. WindowBg/ChildBg RGBA path stays bound to the user's per-window opacity override and never fades. PushGlobal takes the ThemeRegistry as a parameter -- it is an instance member on Plugin, not static, so the single Plugin.Draw call-site threads it through alongside the active theme.	2026-05-20 10:36:33 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	74b07519f5	feat(themes): arm crossfade state in ThemeRegistry.Switch Three new private fields plus TryGetActiveCrossfade entry-point, plus SwitchSilent variant for the plugin-load init path. ArmCrossfade captures a value-copy of the active AbgrCache and stamps TickCount64; mid-crossfade Switch composes the current lerped state as the next fade origin so back-to-back theme switches stay smooth. Same-slug Switch is a no-op (no identity-crossfade).	2026-05-20 09:26:51 +02:00
JonKazama-Hellion	8dade8c4b2	feat(themes): add ThemeAbgrCacheLerp pure-helper for crossfade Per-slot ABGR byte-lerp between two cache value-records, stack-allocated output, t clamped. Pattern anchor: imgui.cpp ImAlphaBlendColors.	2026-05-20 08:57:33 +02:00
