Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
Folders removed entirely:
* //extern/recastnavigation
* //intern/decklink
* //intern/moto
* //source/blender/editors/space_logic
* //source/blenderplayer
* //source/gameengine
This includes DNA data and any reference to the BGE code in Blender itself.
We are bumping the subversion.
Pending tasks:
* Tile/clamp code in image editor draw code.
* Viewport drawing code (so much of this will go away because of BI removal
that we can wait until then to remove this.
- Read-only access can often use EvaluationContext.object_mode
- Write access to go to WorkSpace.object_mode.
- Some TODO's remain (marked as "TODO/OBMODE")
- Add-ons will need updating
(context.active_object.mode -> context.workspace.object_mode)
- There will be small/medium issues that still need resolving
this does work on a basic level though.
See D3037
Engine is not stored in WorkSpaces. That defines the "context" engine, which
is used for the entire UI.
The engine used for the poll of nodes (add node menu, new nodes when "Use Nodes")
is obtained from context.
Introduce a ViewRender struct for viewport settings that are defined for
workspaces and scene. This struct will be populated with the hand-picked
settings that can be defined per workspace as per the 2.8 design.
* use_scene_settings
* properties editor: workshop + organize context path
Use Scene Settings
==================
For viewport drawing, Workspaces have an option to use the Scene render
settings (F12) instead of the viewport settings.
This way users can quickly preview the final render settings, engine and
View Layer. This will affect all the editors in that workspace, and it will be
clearly indicated in the top-bar.
Properties Editor: Add Workspace and organize context path
==========================================================
We now have the properties of:
Scene, Scene > Layer, Scene > World, Workspace
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object > Data

Add face maps, needed for face-map widgets,
only data structure, widgets will be separate commit.
This comes from 'custom-manipulator' branch with only minor changes.
This is a bad implementation waiting for some improvement that are :
- Gawain support for multiple names. -> will remove duplication of attribute alloc
- Glsl safe name string escaping. -> will remove any risk of hash colision.
Old glsl drawing was relying on attribute being choosen by DerivedMesh at drawing time.
For this reason, we declare all possible attrib "name" for each data layer inside the batches.
In the glsl code, we declare required data by type and name.
Then Gawain only bind vbos if names correspond.
This is way cleaner as we do not need to access the CD itself when drawing.
One other problem is that the hash maybe 11 caracters long and rapidly overload gawain's attrib name buffer.
Although this wasn't so obvious since it
only showed up for factory settings and in the preferences window.
Panel display order depends on registration order,
Sorry for the noise. On the bright side we no longer need to move
classes around to re-arrange panels.
This is the core code for it, tools (datatransfer and modifier) will come in next commits).
RNA api is already there, though.
See the code for details, but basically, we define, for each 'smooth fan'
(which is a set of adjacent loops around a same vertex that are smooth, i.e. have a single same normal),
a 'loop normal space' (or lnor space), using auto-computed normal and relevant edges, and store
custom normal as two angular factors inside that space. This allows to have custom normals
'following' deformations of the geometry, and to only save two shorts per loop in new clnor CDLayer.
Normal manipulation (editing, mixing, interpolating, etc.) shall always happen with plain 3D vectors normals,
and be converted back into storage format at the end.
Clnor computation has also been threaded (at least for Mesh case, not for BMesh), since the process can
be rather heavy with high poly meshes.
Also, bumping subversion, and fix mess in 2.70 versioning code.
Main moving logic is moved to new `BKE_keyblock_move()`, which makes it available from anywhere.
In addition, move code was reworked so that it only loops once on whole keyblocks list,
and it accepts arbitrary org and dest indices, not only neighbor ones.
Partly based on work by revzin (Grigory Revzin) in his soc-2014-shapekey GSoC branch, thanks!
So! First, frame for absolute shape keys: never allow a new key to have the same pos as an
existing one (this does not make sense). This way, the two workflows are possible (create
all keys and then animate ctime, or animate ctime and then create keys where you need them).
Also, fixed UIList for shapekeys, the "absolute" test was wrong, and better to show frame
value, even though not editable, than nothing in case of absolute keys.
And finally, add getter to RNA 'frame' readonly value, so that we output real frame values,
and not dummy internal ones (which are /100) in our API.
Notes:
* Did not touch to addons, that's up to the authors. ;)
* Did not removed any "name" field below lists. We might want to do this in some cases (less UI clutter), but probably not always, so will let maintainers of the related areas decide here.
* Give the uiLists a default size of 1, when we don't have any element in it. This saves some space.
Vertex Groups and Shape Keys list will jump to 5 as before when we have an element, due to the additional buttons, for the others, just grow with additional elements.
Notes:
* Made those edits by full checking of py files, so I should have spoted most needed edits, yet it remains quite probable I missed a few ones, we'll fix if/when someone notice it...
* Also made some cleanup "on the road"!
This was caused by r.57812
There were two problems here:
1) vertex_group_vert_select_unlocked_poll() had faulty logic which meant that
it always failed when there were no vgroups present yet - the final return
always just fell through
2) Since the "Assign to New Groups" option was actually implemented using the
same operator as "Assign to Active Group" (just with an extra parameter set), if
the active group was locked, it was not possible to "Assign to New Group" (even
though a new group would not be locked).
Own stupid mistake in recent UI list refactor - those two lists are a good example where a non-void 'id' is necessary, as they use the same class in the same window... Else, the same object is shared by the two, which can't work! :)
It introduces a new (py-extendable and registrable) RNA type, UIList (roughly similar to Panel one), which currently contains only "standard" list's scroll pos and size (but may be expended to include e.g. some filtering data, etc.). This now makes lists completely independent from Panels!
This UIList has a draw_item callback which allows to customize items' drawing from python, that all addons can now use. Incidentally, this also greatly simplifies the C code of this widget, as we do not code any "special case" here anymore!
To make all this work, other changes were also necessary:
* Now all buttons (uiBut struct) have a 'custom_data' void pointer, used currently to store the uiList struct associated with a given uiLayoutListBox.
* DynamicPaintSurface now exposes a new bool, use_color_preview (readonly), saying whether that surface has some 3D view preview data or not.
* UILayout class has now four new (static) functions, to get the actual icon of any RNA object (important e.g. with materials or textures), and to get an enum item's UI name, description and icon.
* UILayout's label() func now takes an optional 'icon_value' integer parameter, which if not zero will override the 'icon' one (mandatory to use "custom" icons as generated for material/texture/... previews).
Note: not sure whether we should add that one to all UILayout's prop funcs?
Note: will update addons using template list asap.
