To celebrate the beginning of a new series, it feels like the right time to
give the theme a fresh look while improving on what already works.
The aim of this refresh is to keep a familiar look but with polishing touches
here and there. Like new paint on the walls of your well known house.
The theme for Blender 2.8 was well received but presented a few flaws.
* Transparency on menus and tooltips reduce readability
* Mismatch on certain colors, especially outlines of connected widgets
* Active/open menus highlight was not prominent enough
* Header background mismatch in some editors
At the same time we can make use of new features in 3.0:
* Make panels look like panels again (like in v2.3!)
* Make use of roundness in more widgets
* Since nodes are no longer hard-coded to be transparent, tweak opacity and saturation
* Tweak colors for the new dot grid
This update does not include:
* Meshes in edit mode to match greenish object-data color. This needs tweaks in the code to improve contrast.
* A copy of the Blender 2.8x legacy theme. This could be added to the community themes (shouldn't cost much maintenance, I hope)
There will be certainly small tweaks to do here and there, I've been working using this theme
for months but there can be areas that are missing update. The overall style is presented here.
This commit bumps the file subversion.

Feedback was that "Default" is a bit of a weird name, so switching it to "User
Library". Added versioning code which won't be entirely bullet proof (e.g. will
also rename libraries named "Default" by the user), but it doesn't have to be.

This patch makes the background grid of the node editor a grid of dots
instead of lines. This makes the background look a bit more subtle and
reduces visual complexity. The dots are meant to provide a reference
when panning and zooming. Based on the design of @pablovazquez, and
a patch originally authored by @fabian_schempp.
The "Grid Levels" controls how many levels of dots are drawn. As the
editor zooms in, the higher levels of dots fade in, making them closer
together visually. The zoom factor at which each grid starts and ends
fading in is controllable in the code, and could be tweaked further
in the future. The new default value is 7, out of a range from 0 to 9.

Camera, lattice and speaker object types were missing there own proper
`USER_DUP_` flags, leading to not properly handling duplication of their
object data.
NOTE: We could probably simply opions here, by using categories (like
'GEOMETRY', 'SHADING', etc.) instead of exact object types. But this is
beyond bugfix scope.

This patch includes code from D9891 and D12754, so credit goes to Juanfran and Dalai.
I updated the patches to work with `master` and with the new overlay toggle.
The reason to include both changes as part of one patch is that the dimmed dashed lines work much better together with colored wires.

For adding the overlay I used `SpaceImageOverlay` as reference, although I'm not familiar with this code so there might be mistakes.

Back in Blender 2.30, the GUI project brought panels into Blender among other important visual updates.
For the first time it was possible to move the wall of buttons around. Providing a clear separation
between sections (it even allowed the grouping of panels in tabs!)
During the 2.5 redesign, the separation between panels became a line on top of each panel, and panels received
theme settings for background and header colors. The default theme used the same color for both.
In 2.8 the background color of panels was different from headers in the default theme, so the separator
line was removed. While the separator line wasn't elegant (only on top, non-themeable, hard-coded emboss effect),
it provided a sort of separation between panels.
This patch solves the panels-separation by simply adding a margin space around them (not visible in default theme yet).
Even though the margin reduces the width of the working area slightly, it makes room for the upcoming always-visible scrollbars.
Other adjustments:
* Use arrow icon instead of triangle to collapse/expand
* Use rounded corners to match the rest of the UI (editor corners, nodes, etc).
{F10953929, size=full}
Margin on panels makes use of the `style->panelouter` property that hasn't been
used in a while. Also slight tweaks to `boxspace` and `templatespace` style properties so they
are multiples of 2 and operations on them round better.
There is technically no need to update the themes for them to work, so no theme changes are included in this patch.

A new theme setting under Style controls the roundness of all panels (added it to Style instead of ThemeSpace because I think controlling the panel roundness per editor is a bit overkill):

This patch adds color tags to VSE strips, an overlay option to toggle the colors
on and off, a section in the theme settings to define the 9 possible colors and
two ways of changing the color tag through the UI. You can change the color
through the right-click context menu, or in the strip side panel next to the
strip name.
Color tags are defined in user preferences and they can be disabled in overlay

Some cases were not covered by the original doversion in

of whether it was changed before or not.
This do a subversion bump.

If the theme used by the user did not touch the wire or the wire outline
colors this will update them as well.
This was supposed to be a part of a bigger UI theme change for 3.0. But
it was expedited because of the recent change in line thickness for the
noodles (2bd02052157).

Idea for 3.0 is to disable all functionality that isn't well polished
and focus on those parts first. Starting with poses.
* Adds a new experimental option "Extended Asset Browser", replacing
"Asset Browser".
* Unlike the previous option, this isn't enabled by default anymore.
This didn't work well in practice and caused plenty of confusion.
* "Mark as Asset" and "Clear Asset" are hidden if the option is
disabled.
* Same for the category selection in the Asset Browser.
* Always show display the "Only Assets" option in the File Browser while
browing inside .blend files. That way you can hide data-blocks that
are not pose assets.
* The Asset Library setup UI in the Preferences is always visible now,
it's needed for pose library access.

Add overlay option to disable grid drawing.
Reuse drawing code from other editors (timeline editor)
Add argument `display_minor_lines` to function
`UI_view2d_draw_lines_x__discrete_frames_or_seconds`
This way minor line drawing can be disabled and so it doesn't cause
too much visual noise. Also spacing seems to be too fine, so VSE uses 3x
what is defined in preferences.

Bump Blender's sub-version to make sure the pose_library add-on isn't
auto-enabled on every run of Blender.
|
|
The new Asset Browser-based pose library is partially implemented in an
add-on. This commit enables the add-on by default, as the old pose
library was built-in and thus always enabled.
The ability to disable the add-on is there mostly for cases where
people/studios want to use their own custom pose library.

This patch adds a left aligned sidebar to the spreadsheet editor. This
Sidebar can be used to navigate the geometry component types and
attribute domains. It also provides a quick overview of domain sizes.
It replaces the two dropdowns in the regions header.

using the CTRL + mouse wheel.

Although "Grid" may not be techincally correct since a grid could be 3D,
it was decided to rename the "Plane" primtive to "Grid". The primitive

Mainly updated the Mantaflow version. It includes the new viscosity solver plugin based on the method from 'Accurate Viscous Free Surfaces for Buckling, Coiling, and Rotating Liquids' (Batty & Bridson).
In the UI, this update adds a new 'Viscosity' section to the fluid modifier UI (liquid domains only). For now, there is a single 'strength' value to control the viscosity of liquids.

One of the core design aspects of the Asset Browser is that users can "mount"
custom asset libraries via the Preferences. Currently an asset library is just
a directory with one or more .blend files in it. We could easily support a
single .blend file as asset library as well (rather than a directory). It's
just disabled currently.
Note that in earlier designs, asset libraries were called repositories.
Idea is simple: In Preferences > File Paths, you can create custom libraries,
by setting a name and selecting a path. The name is ensured to be unique. If
the name or path are empty, the Asset Browser will not show it in the list of
available asset libraries.
The library path is not checked for validity, the Asset Browser will allow
selecting invalid libraries, but show a message instead of the file list, to
help the user understand what's going on.
Of course the actual Asset Browser UI is not part of this commit, it's in one
of the following ones.

Change the default for the Show Channel Group Colors preference to OFF.
This option in the user preferences was introduced in rBad85256e7108. It
moved a per-file-per-editor option to the user preferences. As this
option would be frequently turned off by animators, this would now have
to happen only once. This commit takes this one step further, and turns
it off by default, as it can cause major readability issues of the
animation channel list.

During the development of the new nodes in the `geometry-nodes` branch
the color of the new nodes wasn't considered, so all of the nodes ended
up red, the color for "input" nodes. This patch introduces two new
colors, one for "Geometry" and one for "Attributes". There are only two
attribute nodes currently, but the next sprint will add two more,
attribute mix, and sample from texture. The attribute nodes are
conceptually different enough from the nodes that modify the geometry
that they deserve their own color.

Move the "Show Group Colors" toggle from a per-editor option to a single
user preference in the Animation preferences. The Grease Pencil
animation channel side panel allows picking a channel color; this now
shows a message when channel colors are disabled.
The old "Show Group Colors" toggle had to be set per editor, and was on
by default. This meant that disabling group colors would require an
action for every file, for every editor. It is very hard to select a
color that works both as bone color in the 3D Viewport (needs to be
bright there) as well as the channel list (needs to be dark there), most
animators turn channel list colors off.

"Camera Parent Lock" can be useful when rigging cameras, but it is not
intuitive, and has also generated a lot of confusion (bug reports).
This is because it breaks the fundamental parent <-> child relationship
conventions in Blender, and there is no indication that it's intended
without diving into the preferences.
This commit moves the setting to the object level, and exposes it in
the relations panel in the property editor. It is exposed for every
object type because any object type can be "View Locked" in the 3D view.
The property description is also updated to reflect this change and be
more specific without getting too long.
In the future this could become a more general feature of the transform
system, but for now it is limited to "Lock Camera to View".

In the graph editor there is a panel that says "Active Keyframe" for
numerically editing a keyframe's values, but in the code there is no
concept of the "active keyframe." Since this is a useful concept to
have for some other features anyway, this commit adds an active
keyframe index value to FCurves. It also displays it with a theme
color for the active vertex (which didn't exist before) if the
FCurve is active.
The active keyframe in the graph editor is treated similarly to the
active vertex in the 3D view. It is the keyframe most recently selected
with a single click, and it is always selected.
For now, the only real functional change is that the active keyframe
appears in white and it should be more predictable which keyframe is
being edited in the sidebar panel.

BLO_version_defaults_userpref_blend -> blo_do_versions_userdef
The name was misleading as it was declared along with
BLO_update_defaults_startup_blend making it seem these functions were
related.
In fact preference defaults don't need to be updated as is done for
startup.blend since an in-memory blend file isn't used.
Rename the function to match other versioning functions
called from readfile.c. Also add/update comments on these differences.
|
|
readfile.c's versioning function was only used for 2 variables.
Move versioning into versioning_userdef.c so everything
is done in one function.
Note: DNA_struct_elem_find checks have been replaced with checks for
the next released version.
This is harmless, as only old preferences saved between releases can
have their values overwritten.
Note: userdef versioning should be called from `do_versions_userdef`,
this will be done separately.

There was an oversight when adding new experimental user preferences.
I can try to overengineer this later to make it more fail-proof. But for now
it should be clear what to update when adding a new variable.

Version patching userpref.blend wasn't using the correct version,
causing settings not to be properly updated.
This seems the likely cause of T70196 and similar bugs.
