Because of our release soon, feature has been added behind the Debug Menu.
CTRL+ALT+D and set it to -1. Or commandline --debug-value -1.
When debug set to -1, you can put the viewport to 'render' mode, just like
for Cycles. Notes for testers: (and please no bugs in tracker for this :)
- It renders without AA, MBlur, Panorama, Sequence, Composite
- Only active render layer gets rendered. Select another layer will re-render.
- But yes: it works for FreeStyle renders!
- Also does great for local view.
- BI is not well suited for incremental renders on view changes. This only
works for non-raytrace scenes, or zoom in ortho or camera mode, or for
Material changes. In most cases a full re-render is being done.
- ESC works to stop the preview render.
- Borders render as well. (CTRL+B)
- Force a refresh with arrow key left/right. A lot of settings don't trigger
re-render yet.
Tech notes:
- FreeStyle is adding a lot of temp objects/meshes in the Main database. This
caused DepsGraph to trigger changes (and redraws). I've prepended the names
for these temp objects with char number 27 (ESC), and made these names be
ignored for tag update checking.
- Fixed some bugs that were noticable with such excessive re-renders, like
for opening file window, quit during renders.
rotated close to 180 degrees and there were edges both below and above
the 180 degree threshhold. Separating and averaging the negative and
positive angles seems to solve the issue making the tool a bit more
robust ;)
mat4_decompose() is similar to mat4_to_loc_rot_size() but returns
rotation as quaternion.
mat4_to_loc_quat() just returns location and rotation without size.
impossible. In this case matrix inversion failed and didn't give a useful result.
Now it falls back to a pseudoinverse in that case, so that moving along the
other axes still works.
There may be other places that can benefit from this, but this is a place where
it has no significant performance impact, doing this in general for e.g. bone
matrices could be quite slow.
FLT_EPSILON was too small to use when checking if the edge collapse result is an error.
add invert_m3_m3_ex(), invert_m3_ex() functiosn which take an epsilon to check the determinant, saves calculating it twice per edge collapse.
