Will document the new options in release notes, then in manual.
Still a bit of work to do on the bulging shape that appears
on cube corners if using arc inner miters, but will do that later.
Also need to do something smarter in clamp overlap.
|

Harden normals causes normal splitting, which will not give the
appearance expected due to autosmooth unless some edges are sharpened,
so this change fixes that. Also bevel tool will turn on autosmooth
if not already on if hardening normals.
|
|
Move the bevel hardening code all into bmesh_bevel.c.
Based on user feedback, rewrote the bevel hardening algorithm
to be more what users want.
Based on user feedback, changed the UI, removing some
not-useful options. Now hardening normals while beveling
is enabled by a simple checkbox.
Now setting face strength gives options for which faces
get their face strength set.

Uses 2 different params: mode and strength. There are still some
hiccups with how 2.8 interacts with normals. Will resolve as
support gets better

Current behavior of bevel is to 'loop slide' along unbeveled edges
when possible, but this produces uneven bevel widths sometimes,
so this option lets user choose between having the loop slide effect
or having more even bevel widths. Trying it out with default being
'no loop slide', so different from current behavior. May reverse this
choice later, depending on user reactions.

Now the bevel tool, modifier, and internal operator have a material
slot # parameter that the user can set. If left at default of -1,
behavior is as current -- bevel face material is taken from the
closest original face (this may be ambiguous). If material slot
is >= 0, it gives the material slot index number for the material
to use.

Parameter controls concavity / convexity.
<.25 means: concave inward
.25 means: straight slanted
>.25 means: concave outward
.5 means: circular (the default)
1 means: straight along original sides
For now, there is a hard lower limit of .15
because more work is needed to get decent
results in the range below that.
The profile is actually a superellipse, and the
parameter is 1/4 of the exponent in the implicit equation
for a superellipse, except at the extreme values of 0 and 1.

Now there is an 'Offset Type' dropdown on tool
shelf with types:
Offset - current method, offset of new edge
from old along sliding face
Width - width of new bevel face (if segments=1)
Depth - amount a chamfering plane moves down
from original edge
Percent - percent of way sliding edges move
along their adjacent edges
The different options mainly are useful when
beveling more than one edge at once.
Leaving as a TODO to put these in the modifier,
as doing that has more permanent effects so
want to let users shake out problems with this
first.

This is a quick fix that perhaps overestimates the point
of first geometry collision, but at least for now it should
allow models that used the old modifier and a too-big
bevel amount to not look awful.
The correct solution to this problem is much more involved
and I'll get to it later.
|
|
Now modifier takes a segments parameter.
Bevel edge weights will multiply the overall amount.
For vertex-only, you can give a vertex group name,
and the weights in that will multiply the overall amount.
|
|
Right now, changing segments to > 1 doesn't do anything,
but intend to work on making that cause rounded corners.
