BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
- Remove 'rotate_m2', unlike 'rotate_m4' it created a new matrix
duplicating 'angle_to_mat2' - now used instead.
(better avoid matching functions having different behavior).
- Add 'axis_angle_to_mat4_single',
convenience wrapper for 'axis_angle_to_mat3_single'.
- Replace 'unit_m4(), rotate_m4()' with a single call to 'axis_angle_to_mat4_single'.
mul_m4_m4m4(R, A, B) gives us R = AB in general. Existing code assumed the worst, that A and B both alias the output R. For safety it makes internal copies of A and B before calculating & writing R.
This is the least common case. Usually all 3 matrices differ. Often we see M = AM or M = MB, but never M = MM.
With this revision mul_m4_m4m4 is called in exactly the same way but copies inputs only when needed. If you know the inputs are independent of the output use the "uniq" variant to skip the saftety checks.
mat3_polar_decompose gives the right polar decomposition of given matrix,
as a pair (U, P) of matrices.
interp_m3_m3m3 uses that polar decomposition to perform a correct matrix interpolation,
even with non-uniformly scaled ones (where blend_m3_m3m3 would fail).
interp_m4_m4m4 just adds translation interpolation to the _m3 variant.
`BLI_space_transform_from_matrices()` defines a 'global-invariant' transform
(same point in global space, two different coordinates in local and target spaces).
New `BLI_space_transform_global_from_matrices()` is kind of opposite, it defines
a 'local-invariant' transform (two different points in global space, same coordinates in local and target spaces).
Useful to 'match' meshes.
It still warns the user that there may be an error, but the baking goes
on. Also using the new is_uniform_scaled_m4() instead of float comparison.
Reported and fix suggested by Campbell Barton as a concern over 2bfc3deb
Issue was caused by inverting a degenerate matrix when
evaluating drivers.
Solved by using tweaked inverse code (same as used in Cycles).
Should have no affect on cases when matrix is not degenerate.
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 ;)
