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

Quite striaghtforward change, and in theory we can even try supporting motion
blur for the corner pin node (which is tricky because coordinates actually
coming from sockets, but with some black magic should be doable).
|
|
Basically title says it all. Could be not totally optimized but the code is there now.
|
|
Some node setups benefit from being documented like this.

This is the same as blender internal's texture mapping from another object,
so this way it's possible to control texture space of one object by another.
Quite straightforward change apart from the workaround for the stupidness of
the dependency graph. Now shader has flag telling that it depends on object
transform. This is the simplest way to know which shaders needs to be tagged
for update when object changes. This might give some false-positive tags now
but reducing them should not be priority for Cycles and rather be a priority
to bring new dependency graph.
Also GLSL preview does not support using other object for mapping.
This is actually correct for BI shading as well and to be addressed as
a part of general GLSL viewport improvements since it's not really clear
how to support this in GLSL.

This way it is possible to probe shading compatibility of a given node from
python, making things like versioning code much easier to perform.
it's only valid for shading nodes, for other nodes the property also exists
but reads as an empty enum.
To access this compatibilities:
node.shading_compatibility
|
|
This way Cycles finally becomes feature-full on image projections
compared to Blender Internal and Gooseberry Project Team could
finally finish the movie.

* don't allow Node Editor input max value to be less then min value
* avoid the num slider drawing glitch if softmin equals softmax
* assert if softmax/hardmax is smaller than softmin/hardmin
With this, we sort of allow softmin/hardmin and softmax/hardmax being the same.

This merge-commit brings in a number of new features and workflow/UI improvements for
working with Grease Pencil. While these were originally targetted at improving
the workflow for creating 3D storyboards in Blender using the Grease Pencil,
many of these changes should also prove useful in other workflows too.
The main highlights here are:
1) It is now possible to edit Grease Pencil strokes
- Use D Tab, or toggle the "Enable Editing" toggles in the Toolbar/Properties regions
to enter "Stroke Edit Mode". In this mode, many common editing tools will
operate on Grease Pencil stroke points instead.
- Tools implemented include Select, Select All/Border/Circle/Linked/More/Less,
Grab, Rotate, Scale, Bend, Shear, To Sphere, Mirror, Duplicate, Delete.
- Proportional Editing works when using the transform tools
2) Grease Pencil stroke settings can now be animated
NOTE: Currently drivers don't work, but if time allows, this may still be
added before the release.
3) Strokes can be drawn with "filled" interiors, using a separate set of
colour/opacity settings to the ones used for the lines themselves.
This makes use of OpenGL filled polys, which has the limitation of only
being able to fill convex shapes. Some artifacts may be visible on concave
shapes (e.g. pacman's mouth will be overdrawn)
4) "Volumetric Strokes" - An alternative drawing technique for stroke drawing
has been added which draws strokes as a series of screen-aligned discs.
While this was originally a partial experimental technique at getting better
quality 3D lines, the effects possible using this technique were interesting
enough to warrant making this a dedicated feature. Best results when partial
opacity and large stroke widths are used.
5) Improved Onion Skinning Support
- Different colours can be selected for the before/after ghosts. To do so,
enable the "colour wheel" toggle beside the Onion Skinning toggle, and set
the colours accordingly.
- Different numbers of ghosts can be shown before/after the current frame
6) Grease Pencil datablocks are now attached to the scene by default instead of
the active object.
- For a long time, the object-attachment has proved to be quite problematic
for users to keep track of. Now that this is done at scene level, it is
easier for most users to use.
- An exception for old files (and for any addons which may benefit from object
attachment instead), is that if the active object has a Grease Pencil datablock,
that will be used instead.
- It is not currently possible to choose object-attachment from the UI, but
it is simple to do this from the console instead, by doing:
context.active_object.grease_pencil = bpy.data.grease_pencil["blah"]
7) Various UI Cleanups
- The layers UI has been cleaned up to use a list instead of the nested-panels
design. Apart from saving space, this is also much nicer to look at now.
- The UI code is now all defined in Python. To support this, it has been necessary
to add some new context properties to make it easier to access these settings.
e.g. "gpencil_data" for the datablock
"active_gpencil_layer" and "active_gpencil_frame" for active data,
"editable_gpencil_strokes" for the strokes that can be edited
- The "stroke placement/alignment" settings (previously "Drawing Settings" at the
bottom of the Grease Pencil panel in the Properties Region) is now located in
the toolbar. These were more toolsettings than properties for how GPencil got drawn.
- "Use Sketching Sessions" has been renamed "Continuous Drawing", as per a
suggestion for an earlier discussion on developer.blender.org
- By default, the painting operator will wait for a mouse button to be pressed
before it starts creating the stroke. This is to make it easier to include
this operator in various toolbars/menus/etc. To get it immediately starting
(as when you hold down DKEy to draw), set "wait_for_input" to False.
- GPencil Layers can be rearranged in the "Grease Pencil" mode of the Action Editor
- Toolbar panels have been added to all the other editors which support these.
8) Pie menus for quick-access to tools
A set of experimental pie menus has been included for quick access to many
tools and settings. It is not necessary to use these to get things done,
but they have been designed to help make certain common tasks easier.
- Ctrl-D = The main pie menu. Reveals tools in a context sensitive and
spatially stable manner.
- D Q = "Quick Settings" pie. This allows quick access to the active
layer's settings. Notably, colours, thickness, and turning
onion skinning on/off.

This allows adding a "fake" sun beam effect, simulating crepuscular rays
from light being scattered in a medium like the atmosphere or deep water.
Such effects can be created also by renderers using volumetric lighting,
but the compositor feature is a lot cheaper and is independent from 3D
rendering. This makes it ideally suited for motion graphics.
The implementation uses am optimized accumulation method for gathering
color values along a line segment. The inner buffer loop uses fixed
offset increments to avoid unnecessary multiplications and avoids
variables by using compile-time specialization (see inline comments
for further details).
|
|
Preserve buffer form previous runs so it's possible to make
a compo of full frame, then draw a border and start tweaking
nodes and see updates in that border.
Main idea is to make it able to visually compare difference
between what was changed inside the border and how frame
looked before the tweaks outside of the border.
Also implemented Clear Viewer Border in compositor, shortcut
it Ctrl-Alt-B.

* Anisotropic BSDF now supports GGX and Beckmann distributions, Ward has been
removed because other distributions are superior.
* GGX is now the default distribution for all glossy and anisotropic nodes,
since it looks good, has low noise and is fast to evaluate.
* Ashikhmin-Shirley is now available in the Glossy BSDF.
|
|
* Ashikhmin-Shirley anisotropic BSDF was added as closure
* Anisotropic BSDF node now has two distributions

All textures are sampled bi-linear currently with the exception of OSL there texture sampling is fixed and set to smart bi-cubic.
This patch adds user control to this setting.
Added:
- bits to DNA / RNA in the form of an enum for supporting multiple interpolations types
- changes to the image texture node drawing code ( add enum)
- to ImageManager (this needs to know to allocate second texture when interpolation type is different)
- to node compiler (pass on interpolation type)
- to device tex_alloc this also needs to get the concept of multiple interpolation types
- implementation for doing non interpolated lookup for cuda and cpu
- implementation where we pass this along to osl ( this makes OSL also do linear untill I add smartcubic to the interface / DNA/ RNA)

This is because the sub-paths of the individual sockets are defined as
FILEPATH properties, which automatically adds the standard fileselect
operator button in the uiLists. However, that operator returns full
paths only, with no direct way to make them relative to the base path.
So for now i've turned the subpath properties into regular strings,
which removes these operator buttons but should at least avoid the
confusion.
Eventually new operators could be defined for this, which use the file-
select operator and then make the path relative.
|

Default Values is used on it.
The default for the socket value was always 0. Now the default value for
node socket default_value properties is chosen based on the socket
subtype to give some more sensible values.
NOTE: this may still be different from the values specified in the
socket templates! It is not possible to directly use these template
values, because all sockets share the same RNA types. At least it should
work reasonably well in the majority of cases now.

don't get updated based on context.
As discussed in T38340 the solution is to use the current scene from
context whenever feasible.
Composite does not use node->id at all now, the scene which owns the
compositing node tree is retrieved from context instead.
Defocus node->id is made editable by the user. By default it is not set,
which also will make it use the contextual scene and camera info.
The node->id pointer in Defocus is **not** cleared in older blend files.
This is done for backward compatibility: the node will then behave as
before in untouched scenes.
File Output nodes also don't store scene in node->id. This is only needed
when creating a new node for initializing the file format.

Now it uses the last activated node like compositing does. This should have no
effect on existing files until you activate another output node there.

sockets passed to the nodetree.links.new function, otherwise this could
lead to invalid connections between different node trees! The
ntreeAddLink function has asserts for this, but this condition needs to
be checked in the RNA method calling it.

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.

information such as light vector from specified Lamp.
For now this provides the following outputs:
- Color
- Light Vector
- Distance
- Shadow
- Visibility Factor
Note: Color output is multiplied by the lamp energy. Multiplication of
color*max(dot(light_vector,normal_vector),0)*shadow*visibility_factor
produces the exact same result as the Lambert shader.
Many thanks to Brecht for code review and discussion!

(simple 'label' identifier is already in use, need to avoid API breakage). This should simply return a string. The dynamic label can still be overridden by the user-defined node.label string.

for either mode are converted into equivalent settings of the other. This keeps the result of both modes roughly the same and
mimics the previous behavior when settings were shared by both modes (but not equivalent).
NOTE: Due to the use of additional sRGB conversion in the LGG mode the result is not entirely accurate, this should perhaps be fixed.
Settings for each mode are kept in their own color values nevertheless, this avoids potential problems with float precision.

offset/power/slope variables for the CDL mode in color balance node. This avoids stupid default values in particular for offset, which would be 1 when just using the lift value for it.
