The Buff Frame panel in the same September 18 walkthrough; the recording does not demonstrate saved layout persistence.

What the Footage Does Not Show

  • Creating a layout or setting its character scope.
  • Saving and reopening a layout.
  • Import, export, copy, backup or recovery.
  • Why Cooldown Viewer appears dimmed.
  • Slider defaults or allowed ranges.

The visible Save button does not establish persistence. The recording also does not demonstrate a save, reopen, import or export workflow.

The native Cooldown Manager reference preserves its dated menu paths. The accessibility control reference maps visual and input options. For your first session, start with the new-player guide.

Saving FAQ

Does Save prove the layout will persist?

No. The footage shows the button, but it does not demonstrate saving a layout and reopening it.

Why is Cooldown Viewer dimmed?

It is dimmed in the shown frame. The recording gives no reason.
