LibButtonGlow-1.0
LibButtonGlow-1.0 is a replacement for the ActionButton_Show/HideOverlayGlow APIs.
Using the built-in APIs will irreversibly taint the Action Button functionality, which is why it should be entirely avoided. The resulting taint is hard to track and pin-point exactly, resulting in action blocked messages when switching stances or using vehicles.
Unfortunately, even using Blizzards XML template can cause taint and will break the Action Buttons under certain circumstances. LibButtonGlow-1.0 does not use the Blizzard template, and instead offers a clean implementation in Lua only.
This library offers a simple drop-in replacement API to resolve these issues.
Usage:
LibStub("LibButtonGlow-1.0").ShowOverlayGlow(frame)
LibStub("LibButtonGlow-1.0").HideOverlayGlow(frame)

Posted Nov 15, 2023I unsure, but it looks like HideOverlayGlow function is bugged as of latest build. I am passing a frame to the function, in my case, an action bar button, but the glow does not get removed.
Edit: Resolved. Issue not related to mod but racing condition.

Posted Nov 9, 2023Hello! would it be possible to update this addon to use the newest animation for the glow that's in the base game?

Posted Nov 13, 2022After about a year and a half of action bar corruption, I found out that it's not your addon that caused it. It was my own calls to StartChargeCooldown() and ClearChargeCooldown(). Fortunately, it wasn't too hard to replicate them with my own code.

Posted Jul 7, 2021Getting action bar corruption since 9.1 dropped using LibButtonGlow.
Edit: It turns out since 9.1, Blizzard made it even easier to corrupt the action bar code. I tweaked my code and the problem fixed itself.

Will this addon be updated for 9.2? I rely on it often, and it seems to have stopped working after the 9.2 patch. Thanks!
