Some of Eevee's Bloom defaults are not very good for physically based rendering. This patches addresses this issue.
This picture shows one of the problems with current default. Bloom looks very foggy:
{F6280495}
Even worse, light emitters much dimmer than the Sun can make everything equally hazy if Clamp is set to 1.0 and intensity to 0.8 (current default). Artists often forget to adjust Clamp value and do not know what value to use for realistic intensity. Also, currently both Clamp and Intensity do not have good UI ranges. This is why often Eevee renders end up very hazy and bloom often does not look right.
Bloom effect plays important role to help to distinguish between bright and relatively dim light sources. With current defaults this is broken because Clamp set to 1.0. Also, it cannot be disabled if set to 0 like expected. This patch fixes this and sets it to 0 by default. If users need to clamp, they can do so easily with UI range up to 1000. This range is good enough for most cases and provides enough precision to control lower values, and the highest value helps to limit bloom from the Sun if necessary and will leave untouched most other light emitters. If needed, much higher values for Clamp can be entered manually up to 100000. 10000 is still affects the Sun, but up to 100000 highest limit allows to clamp anything that is much brighter than the Sun if user needs to limit bloom in such cases (for example, bright explosion in the sky or anything else very bright).
I propose new default for bloom Intensity - 0.05 and UI range to suggests realistic values. Bloom Intensity > 0.1 is not realistic for clean lens but the user can enter manually much larger values if needed.
For comparison, here is a my own photo with and without bloom caused by the Sun (on second photo the Sun was occluded with an object).
{F6280500}
{F6280492}
In real life bloom is much more subtle and does not look hazy. If Clamp is disabled, then out of 0.1, 0.05 and 0.025 values I have tried, 0.05 looks most similar to the photo. Here is test render with and without bloom with the Sun in similar position like on the photo:
{F6280496}
{F6280494}
Using color probe 27x27 I compared lightness below the horizon under the Sun. In rendered by Eevee images lightness difference was 17. In case of the photos lightness difference in similar place was 11. I then compared leftmost spot (also below the horizon) and lightness difference was approximately 2 between two photos and 1 between rendered images. In other words, with these settings bloom effect is not too strong and is not too weak. Visually it may seem like decreasing bloom intensity may increase photorealism, but then bloom effect would be too localized even for the Sun.
Besides this single test, I tested in many other scenes as well, with and without the Sun, with different HDRIs, and as far as I can tell 0.05 intensity turned out to be good default - it produces bloom strong enough to be noticeable and not too hazy.
In Cycles shutter default value is 0.50, so for consistency set to 0.5 by default in Eevee too. Besides, 0.5 is typical standard for real cameras, and values higher than 0.5 usually are needed only if very strong motion blur is desired.
Here is summary of all changes:
Bloom Intensity: 0.8 > 0.05
Bloom Intensity UI range: 0-10 > 0-0.1
Bloom Clamp: 1.0 > 0.0 (disabled by default)
Bloom Clamp manual range: 0-1000 > 0-100000
Bloom Clamp UI range: 0-10 > 0-1000
Shutter: 1.0 > 0.5
This patch is related to the discussion in this thread, there are more examples of what bloom will look like with 0.05 intensity by me and others:

This commit groups a set of new tools that were tested in grease pencil object branch before moving to master. We decide to do all the development in a separated branch because it could break master during days or weeks before the new tools were ready to deploy.
The commit includes:
- New Cutter tool to trim strokes and help cleaning up drawings.
- New set of constraints and guides to draw different types of shapes. All the credits for this development goes to Charlie Jolly (@charlie), thanks for your help!
- Segment selection mode to select strokes between intersections.
- New operator to change strokes cap mode.
- New option to display only keyframed frames. This option is very important when fill strokes with color.
- Multiple small fixes and tweaks.
Thanks to @pepeland and @mendio for their ideas, tests, reviews and support.
Note: Still pending the final icons for Cutter in Toolbar and Segment Selection in Topbar. @billreynish could help us here?

Fixed by setting the limit to the original limit I used for Cycles.
Rendering still goes extremely slow when bokeh is lower than 1.0.
But at least now it is "waitable". With lower numbers than 0.01 I don't
think we would ever get a render to finish.
@fclem feel free to address the real root of the problem, but I'm afraid
it may be a limitation of the algorithm you are using.

Use rna naming conventions for unit-settings callbacks.

Since there will be no view layer overrides in 2.80, this is needed still.
|

- use_pass_indirect, use_pass_specular from ViewLayer RNA
- RGBA, DIFFUSE, SPEC, REFLECT, REFRACT, INDIRECT usages from remaining
places

Also (mostly in comments): behaviour -> behavior (we use American English).
|
|
Also contains some code typo fixes (mostly, adtaptative -> adaptive,
former is nearly innexistant in English, let's stick to simple valid
words ;) ).
|
|
Enum for scene orientations included default.
|
|
Avoids awkward logic from the popover,
by faking an extra item in the enum.
|
|
Instead of link toggle with enum, use a single popover that contains
both settings. The code for this isn't nice - needing 3x panels for now.
See D4075
|
|
Avoids RNA introspection at draw time
which is relatively slow (approx 5x).
|
|
This aims to resolve a conflict where some users want to keep keyboard
axis setting global, even when the orientation is set to something else.
Move/rotate/scale can optionally each have a separate orientation.
Some UI changes will be made next.

settings entirely.
Ref D4022.

This resolves this issue where users would enable a snapping mode
besides incremental (vertex for eg), then notice strange behavior w/
rotate and scale.
While this ability can be useful, it's quite an obscure use case.
Now changing snap-modes keeps rotate and scale using incremental snap,
with the option for these modes to be affected by other snapping modes.

Also change the part "running Blender" for "that rendered the frame".
|
|
Having the hostname allows us to identify which machine rendered which
frame in our render farm.
This simply uses the host's name, and doesn't do any DNS lookup of any
IP address of the machine. As such, it's only usable for identification
purposes, and not for reachability over a network.

The fix itself simply is to store the cage object as a pointer instead
of a string/name.
That said baking with or without cage is yielding very different results
than in 2.7.

There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.

Shadow focus let the user choose how hard are is the shadows transition.
Harder shadow transition can be used for stylistic effects or more uniform
shading.
Make shadow orientation respect the same orientation as the studio light
(view from +Y direction aka. front view). Make the default shadow direction
more similar to the default light position (the default light object, not
the default studio lighting).
|
|
This follows naming convention agreed on in T56648.
|
|
Now it's possible define the blend mode between layers including the option to clamp the layer using underlying layers.
Also a new Simplify option has been added to disable blend layers.

This setting can be tweaked to improve glossy reflection cubemaps.
It increases the sample count for each roughness level.
This settings affect the lookdev mode quality as well.
|
|
This enables reducing the noise comming from very bright light sources
(like a sun) that can be found in distant HDRIs.
The lost energy may be replaced manually by a sunlight that compensate the
this loss.
This clamping only concerns Reflection Cubmaps and is done on all on all
of them.
Setting to 0.0 disables it (default).
|
|
This is a parameter that will make the interpolation between irradiance
cells of a same Irradiance Volume smoother, reducing the weight of the
light leaking correction factors.
It is usefull in some cases to avoid harsh lighting transition that can
happen when a sample point it near a surface.
|
|
This is an important change. Starting from now, all lights have a finite
influence radius (similar to the old sphere option for BI).
In order to avoid costly setup time, this distance is first computed
automatically based on a light threshold. The distance is computed
at the light origin and using the inverse square falloff. The setting
can be found inside the render settings panel > shadow tab.
This light threshold does not take the light shape into account an may not
suit every case. That's why we provide a per lamp override where you can
just set the cutt off distance (Light Properties Panel > Light >
Custom Distance).
The influence distance is also used as shadow far clip distance.
This influence distance does not concerns sun lights that still have a
far clip distance.
---
This change is important because it makes it possible to cull lights
an improve performance drastically in the future.

I only specified the identifiers for the units that are actually accessible for now.
This way we can postpone some decisions for now. E.g. if it should be `METER_SQUARE`, `SQUARE_METER`, `METER_SQ`, ...

Just tooltips and RNA labels when possible. Node outputs use their name to keep connections,
so they haven't been changed, otherwise it will break old files.

This option make the internal render size larger than the output size in
order to minimize screenspace effects disapearing at the render edges.
The overscan size added around the render is the maximum dimension
multiplied by the overscan percentage.

When enabled, inserting keyframes into F-Curves with simple cyclic
extrapolation (the same conditions as required for cycle-aware auto
handle smoothing to activate) will take the cycle into account:
- Keyframes that are being inserted outside of the cycle bounds
are remapped to be inside the cycle. Thus it is not necessary
to be within the main iteration of the cycle when tweaking.
This becomes especially useful in the final animation tweaking
phase when the channel keys may be staggered for overlap, so
the actual master period is different for different channels.
- Modifying one of the end points of a cycle also changes the
other end point when appropriate, to preserve smooth transition.
This feature applies to both manual keyframe insertion using
'I', and auto-keyframing.
