OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.

No longer needed since names not values are compared
when checking if a tool is active.
|
|
Was using object mode in the workspace API which isn't
useful for accessing tools.
|
|
This patch adds support for:
- Per space-type tools (3D view and edit).
- Per mode tools (object, edit, weight-paint .. etc).
The top-bar shows the last activated tools options, this is a design
issue with using a global topbar to show per-space settings.
See D3395

Per collection overrides are gone now.
|
|
We handle doversion for the scene properties, but not for the
view layer overrides.
Overrides will be implemented in a different way via dynamic overrides.
For now this data is completely lost.
|
|
Internal change only, needed because object mode is now in top-bar.

Patch D3205 by Kanzaki Wataru
Only implemented in Eevee for now. Collapse a closure to RGBA so we can
do NPR stuff on the resulting color.
Use an emission shader to convert the color back to a closure.
Doing this will break PBR and will kill any SSR and SSS effects the shader
the shader rely on. That said screen space refraction and ambient occlusion
are supported due to the way they are implemented.
|
|
Disabled shadows for now as the calculation of the light direction is
still to bogus.

Outline is reserved for the Overlap Overlay
|
|
|
|
the toolbar
The icon designers still need to create these, but it's better to have placeholders
so they remember to do it.
|
|
Currently all are stacked together, but perhaps if we don't get any other
tools in the meantime, it would make sense to have them separate.
Notes:
* No icons for now...
* There are some 2.8 bugs with the underlying operators (notably multi object)

bone transform tools
For fun, I tried adding some more edit armature tools to the toolbar to
check how this is all working. Icons are missing currently, but it's a
nice test.
|
|
|
|
* Move Shading modes out of the popover
* Move Show Overlays out of the popover
* Test moving the Mode to the topbar again
* Move submode (select vertex, edge, face) to the topbar
* Remove icon from show_manipulator toggle
|
|
Could too easily click to extrude without any offset.
|
|
Always show normal axis since this is the most used,
even when another orientation is selected.
|
|
Use the context space type, not the workspace.
Broke setting tools for the first time.
|
|
|
|
Was depth sorting per mesh.
|
|
The RGB node is used if it exists,
this is multiplied by the vertex color.
|
|
This avoids having to store the tool definition in the operator
properties (on redraw).
Now just set the name, note this means we can't show the keymap in the
tool-tip anymore. This will eventually be shown in the status bar.
|
|
Needed to bind keys to tools (T55036).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note, may move these static methods into their own module.
|
|
Pivot variables are now stored in scene toolsettings.

This was taking valuable header room for a rarely used operator.
|
|
Move manipulator toggle to overlay popover.

Update from @billreynish

|
Change the fill setting in the keymap,
this allows tool access the macro with either setting.
|
|
The Studio lights are now loaded from disk. The location is
`datafiles/studiolights` they need to be JPG for now. JPG cannot store
HDRI color range but they are clamped inside the Workbench
engine for speed reason. I didn't select JP2K as it might not be
enabled.
Users can add upto 20 HDRI files. This limitation is inside the
RNA_space.c Currently the icons are calculated when you first open the
selection box for the HDRI's. We could add them to a background
rendering later.
I added 2 test files a sky texture rendered in Cycles and an HDRI from
cloud.blender.org.
