### GUI & UX Modernization
|
||||
- **Theme System**: Implemented a comprehensive theme system (`AgentUITheme`) that centralizes all UI colors. All Agent UI components are now theme-aware, deriving colors from the main application theme.
|
||||
- **UI Helper Library**: Created a library of 30+ reusable UI helper functions (`AgentUI::*` and `gui::*`) to standardize panel styles, section headers, status indicators, and buttons, reducing boilerplate code by over 50%.
|
||||
- **Visual Polish**: Enhanced numerous UI panels (Agent Chat, Test Harness, Collaboration) with theme-aware colors, status badges (PASS/FAIL/RUN), connection indicators, and provider badges (Ollama/Gemini).

### Overworld Editor Refactoring
|
||||
- **Modular Architecture**: Refactored the 3,400-line `OverworldEditor` into smaller, focused modules, including `OverworldEntityRenderer`.
|
||||
- **Progressive Loading**: Implemented a priority-based progressive loading system in the central `gfx::Arena` to prevent UI freezes during asset loading. This benefits all editors.
|
||||
- **Critical Graphics Fixes**: Resolved major bugs related to graphics not refreshing immediately, multi-quadrant map updates, and incorrect feature visibility on vanilla ROMs.
|
||||
- **Multi-Area Map Configuration**: Implemented a robust `ConfigureMultiAreaMap()` method to correctly handle parent/child relationships for all area sizes (Small, Large, Wide, Tall).

|
||||
- Sheets 1-2: MAIN palette group
|
||||
- Sheet 7: ANIMATED palette group
|
||||
- **Enhanced UI Layout**: Improved scrollable layout with better organization and visual clarity
|
||||
- **Right-Click Tile Picking**: New feature to pick tiles directly from the tile16 canvas for quick editing
|
||||
- **Save/Discard Workflow**: Implemented proper save/discard workflow that prevents ROM changes until explicit user confirmation
|
||||
|
||||
**Known Issues:**
|
||||
- ⚠️ Palette display still has some errors with certain sheet configurations (work in progress)
