The idea of pole merge is to fade interocular distance after a certain
altitude to zero when altitude goes closer to a pole. This should prevent
annoyances looking up in the sky or down to the bottom.
Works for both panorama and perspective cameras when Spherical Stereo
is enabled.

This is a new option for panorama cameras to render
stereo that can be used in virtual reality devices
The option is available under the camera panel when Multi-View is enabled (Views option in the Render Layers panel)
Known limitations:
------------------
* Parallel convergence is not supported (you need to set a convergence distance really high to simulate this effect).
* Pivot was not supposed to affect the render but it does, this has to be looked at, but for now set it to CENTER
* Derivatives in perspective camera need to be pre-computed or we shuld get rid of kcam->dx/dy (Sergey words, I don't fully grasp the implication shere)
* This works in perspective mode and in panorama mode. However, for fully benefit from this effect in perspective mode you need to render a cube map. (there is an addon for this, developed separately, perhaps we could include it in master).
* We have no support for "neck distance" at the moment. This is supposed to help with objects at short distances.
* We have no support to rotate the "Up Axis" of the stereo plane. Meaning, we hardcode 0,0,1 as UP, and create the stereo pair related to that. (although we could take the camera local UP when rendering panoramas, this wouldn't work for perspective cameras.
* We have no support for interocular distance attenuation based on the proximity of the poles (which helps to reduce the pole rotation effect/artifact).
THIS NEEDS DOCS - both in 2.78 release log and the Blender manual.
Meanwhile you can read about it here: http://code.blender.org/2015/03/1451
This patch specifically dates from March 2015, as you can see in the code.blender.org post. Many thanks to all the reviewers, testers and minor sponsors who helped me maintain spherical-stereo for 1 year.
All that said, have fun with this. This feature was what got me started with Multi-View development (at the time what I was looking for was Fulldome stereo support, but the implementation is the same). In order to make this into Blender I had to make it aiming at a less-specic user-case Thus Multi-View started. (this was December 2012, during Siggraph Asia and a chat I had with Paul Bourke during the conference). I don't have the original patch anymore, but you can find a re-based version of it from March 2013, right before I start with the Multi-View project https://developer.blender.org/P332

We have callbacks for that, they also do some checks and help ensure things are done
correctly. Only place where this is assumed not true is blenloader (since here we
may affect refcount of library IDs as well...).
|
|
Idea is, instead of ignoring completely missing linked datablocks, to
create void placeholders for them.
That way, you can work on your file, save it, and find again your missing data once
lib becomes available again. Or you can edit missing lib's path (in Outliner),
save and reload the file, and you are done.
Also, Outliner now shows broken libraries (and placeholders) with a 'broken lib' icon.
Future plans are also to be able to relocate missing libs and reload them at runtime.
Code notes:
- Placeholder ID is just a regular datablock of same type as expected linked one,
with 'default' data, and a LIB_MISSING bitflag set.
- To allow creation of such datablocks, creation of datablocks in BKE was split in two step:
+ Allocation of memory itself.
+ Setting of all internal data to default values.
See also the design task (T43351).

Also use simpler method to calculate the depth.

If we had ambiguity in the SceneRenderView > Suffix matching test, the
first match would be used. And this would happen everytime a
SceneRenderView had an empty camera suffix.
We now take the longest matching suffix instead.

Parallel rendering was not working.
The idea of having parallel convergence mode to render as parallel but
visualize as off-axis was good, but it was leading to some complications
in the code.
I think it's more clear to the user if parallel looks and render as
parallel, and if she wants to pre-visualize the converged planes, simply
temporarily set the camera to off-axis.

Missing Bits
============
First rule of Multi-View bug report: If something is not working as it should *when Views is off* this is a severe bug, do mention this in the report.
Second rule is, if something works *when Views is off* but doesn't (or crashes) when *Views is on*, this is a important bug. Do mention this in the report.
Everything else is likely small todos, and may wait until we are sure none of the above is happening.
Apart from that there are those known issues:
* Compositor Image Node poorly working for Multi-View OpenEXR
(this was working prefectly before the 'Use Multi-View' functionality)
* Selecting camera from Multi-View when looking from camera is problematic
* Animation Playback (ctrl+F11) doesn't support stereo formats
* Wrong filepath when trying to play back animated scene
* Viewport Rendering doesn't support Multi-View
* Overscan Rendering
* Fullscreen display modes need to warn the user
* Object copy should be aware of views suffix

- Correct logic converting radius to view distance.
- Wasn't taking view-zoom into account converting lens to angle.
- Support framing the selection in the camera bounds (for camera locked views).
Add ED_view3d_radius_to_dist to handles these details.

This commit introduces a few ready made effects for the 3D viewport
and OpenGL rendering.
Included effects are Depth of Field, accessible from camera view
and screen space ambient occlusion. Those effects can be turned on and
tweaked from the shading panel in the 3D viewport.
Off screen rendering will use the settings of the current camera.

This changes BKE's fitting code to use `BKE_camera_params_compute_viewplane` instead of
`BKE_camera_view_frame`. This allows that code to work with orthographic projection too.
Also, two funcs were added to rna's Object, to resp. get the projection matrix of that
object (mostly useful for cameras and lamps objects), and return position this object
should be to see all (to fit) a given set of points.

Note 'same' values are kept for now, even though it was probably meant the
other way around, it's safer to keep current behavior for now.

Previously this only worked for some datablocks relevant to rendering, now it
can be used to detect if any type of datablock was added or removed (but not
yet to detect if it was modified, we need many more depsgraph tags for that).
Most of the changes are some function parameter changes, the important parts
are the DAG_id_type_tag calls.

This patch changes most of the reamining degrees usage in internal code into radians.
I let a few which I know off asside, for reasons explained below - and I'm not sure to have found out all of them.
WARNING: this introduces forward incompatibility, which means files saved from this version won't open 100% correctly
in previous versions (a few angle properties would use radians values as degrees...).
Details:
- Data:
-- Lamp.spotsize: Game engine exposed this setting in degrees, to not break the API here I kept it as such
(using getter/setter functions), still using radians internally.
-- Mesh.smoothresh: Didn't touch to this one, as we will hopefully replace it completely by loop normals currently in dev.
- Modifiers:
-- EdgeSplitModifierData.split_angle, BevelModifierData.bevel_angle: Done.
- Postprocessing:
-- WipeVars.angle (sequencer's effect), NodeBokehImage.angle, NodeBoxMask.rotation, NodeEllipseMask.rotation: Done.
- BGE:
-- bConstraintActuator: Orientation type done (the minloc[0] & maxloc[0] cases). Did not touch to 'limit location' type,
it can also limit rotation, but it exposes through RNA the same limit_min/limit_max, which hence
can be either distance or angle values, depending on the mode. Will leave this to BGE team.
-- bSoundActuator.cone_outer_angle_3d, bSoundActuator.cone_inner_angle_3d: Done (note I kept degrees in BGE itself,
as it seems this is the expected value here...).
-- bRadarSensor.angle: Done.

functions.

Issue was caused by couple of circumstances:
- Normal Map node requires tesselated faces to compute tangent space
- All temporary meshes needed for Cycles export were adding to G.main
- Undo pushes would temporary set meshes tessfaces to NULL
- Moving node will cause undo push and tree re-evaluate fr preview
All this leads to threading conflict between preview render and undo
system.
Solved it in way that all temporary meshes are adding to that exact
Main which was passed to Cycles via BlendData. This required couple
of mechanic changes like adding extra parameter to *_add() functions
and adding some *_ex() functions to make it possible RNA adds objects
to Main passed to new() RNA function.
This was tricky to pass Main to RNA function and IMO that's not so
nice to pass main to function, so ended up with such decision:
- Object.to_mesh() will add temp mesh to G.main
- Added Main.meshes.new_from_object() which does the same as to_mesh,
but adds temporary mesh to specified Main.
So now all temporary meshes needed for preview render would be added
to preview_main which does not conflict with undo pushes.
Viewport render shall not be an issue because object sync happens from
main thread in this case.
It could be some issues with final render, but that's not so much
likely to happen, so shall be fine.
Thanks to Brecht for review!

- BKE_camera_params_from_object now sets the lens to 35 if the object isnt a camera/lamp, without this the view3d lens would be used in camera view.
- running smooth-view multiple times now stores the initial user view rather then over-writing from the current state each time re-smoothview runs.
- redraw panels after smoothview finishes.

orthographic on 3D view
Patch by Yasuhiro Fujii, thanks!
Original issue was that in vases viewport's lens are different from default
value switching between perspective and orthographic projections will change
viewplane a lot, which is disorienting and annoying.

For sample images see:
http://www.dalaifelinto.com/?p=399 (equisolid)
http://www.dalaifelinto.com/?p=389 (equidistant)
The 'use_panorama' option is now part of a new Camera type: 'Panorama'.
Created two other panorama cameras:
- Equisolid: most of lens in the market simulate this lens - e.g. Nikon, Canon, ...)
this works as a real lens up to an extent. The final result takes the
sensor dimensions into account also.
.:. to simulate a Nikon DX2S with a 10.5mm lens do:
sensor: 23.7 x 15.7
fisheye lens: 10.5
fisheye fov: 180
render dimensions: 4288 x 2848
- Equidistant: this is not a real lens model. Although the old equidistant lens simulate
this lens. The result is always as a circular fisheye that takes the whole sensor
(in other words, it doesn't take the sensor into consideration).
This is perfect for fulldomes ;)
For the UI we have 10 to 360 as soft values and 10 to 3600 as hard values (because we can).

Note, this is not a real simulation of the light path through the lens.
