Sets the unit abbreviations an ActionButtonGroup appends to its cooldown countdowns.<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
ActionButtonGroupSetTimeAbbreviations(groupName, days, hours, minutes, seconds)<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Arguments ==<br />
;groupName : <code>string</code> – Name of an ActionButtonGroup window.<br />
;days : <code>wstring</code> – Abbreviation for days.<br />
;hours : <code>wstring</code> – Abbreviation for hours.<br />
;minutes : <code>wstring</code> – Abbreviation for minutes.<br />
;seconds : <code>wstring</code> – Abbreviation for seconds.<br />
<br />
== Returns ==<br />
Nothing.<br />
<br />
== Details ==<br />
* The four strings are stored on the group in the order given. The argument names follow the strings the stock UI passes.<br />
* The countdown text of [[API:ActionButtonGroupSetTimer|ActionButtonGroupSetTimer]] only shows whole minutes or seconds, so only the <code>minutes</code> and <code>seconds</code> strings appear on the buttons.<br />
* All four must be wide strings. A plain Lua string raises an ''Invalid Parameters'' error.<br />
<br />
== Errors ==<br />
* <code>Error in function call 'ActionButtonGroupSetTimeAbbreviations': Window %s does not exist</code><br />
* <code>Error in function call 'ActionButtonGroupSetTimeAbbreviations': Window %s is not a ActionButtonGroup</code><br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
From <code>ea_backpackwindow/source/backpackiconview.lua</code>:<br />
<pre><br />
ActionButtonGroupSetTimeFormat( pocketName.."Buttons", Window.TimeFormat.LARGEST_UNIT_TRUNCATE )<br />
ActionButtonGroupSetTimeAbbreviations( pocketName.."Buttons",<br />
GetString(StringTables.Default.LABEL_TIMER_DAYS_ABBREVIATION),<br />
GetString(StringTables.Default.LABEL_TIMER_HOURS_ABBREVIATION),<br />
GetString(StringTables.Default.LABEL_TIMER_MINUTES_ABBREVIATION),<br />
