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.
Fixes T58632: Particle don't update rotation settings
The old onion skinning used in 2.7x has been ported and converted to 2.8. Only basic features have been included. For more advanced onion skin features, use grease pencil objects.
Onion Skin is supported in View 3D and Sequencer.
This is part of T57829.
Reduce the number of batches used to only one by shader type. This reduces GPU overhead and increase a lot the FPS. As the number of batches is small, the time to allocate and free memory was reduced in 90% or more.
Also the code has been simplified and all batch management has been removed because this is not necessary. Now, all shading groups are created after all vertex buffer data for all strokes has been created using DRW_shgroup_call_range_add().
All batch cache data has been moved to the Object runtime struct and not as before where some parts (derived data) were saved inside GPD datablock.
For particles, now the code is faster and cleaner and gets better FPS.
Thanks to Clément Foucault for his help and advices to improve speed.
Now the grid is always controlled by the topbar selector and not in the canvas panel. To have two places to define orientation was confuse.
The orientation by default (no lock) is always to view plane.
Full redesign of the cache system used for drawing strokes and handle derived frame data.
Before, the cache was saved in bGPdata and a hash was used to manage several objects with the same datablock.
Old design made the use of particles very inefficient and prone to bugs and segment faults, and especially when this was mixed with onion skinning and multiple objects using same datablock. Also, there were some conflicts with the depsgrah logic (the old design was done before despgraph was in place) that made the use of hash not working.
The new design saves the data in the object runtime struct and avoid the use of any hash to find the right data. This improves the speed and reduce a lot the complexity of the code, memory allocation, hash overload and adds full support for particles and reused datablocks.
The particles can reuse the modifiers and shader effects of the original grease pencil object.
Before when press . (view_select) the object was centered at the dummy, but now it's centered with the strokes bounding box size.
Also fixed some problems in edit mode when the object origin was not in view origin.
The grid now can be configured by object because this helps to identify objects and allows to define diferent grid parameters for each objects.
Also added a color option.
Before, the weight data array was created always, but now only is added when a weight value is assigned.
This change was suggested by algorithm, and both agreed it was good idea.
This commit merge the full development done in greasepencil-object branch and include mainly the following features.
- New grease pencil object.
- New drawing engine.
- New grease pencil modes Draw/Sculpt/Edit and Weight Paint.
- New brushes for grease pencil.
- New modifiers for grease pencil.
- New shaders FX.
- New material system (replace old palettes and colors).
- Split of annotations (old grease pencil) and new grease pencil object.
- UI adapted to blender 2.8.

This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
This will allow much finer controll over how we copy data-blocks, from
full copy in Main database, to "lighter" ones (out of Main, inside an
already allocated datablock, etc.).
This commit also transfers a llot of what was previously handled by
per-ID-type custom code to generic ID handling code in BKE_library.
Hopefully will avoid in future inconsistencies and missing bits we had
all over the codebase in the past.
It also adds missing copying handling for a few types, most notably
Scene (which where using a fully customized handling previously).
Note that the type of allocation used during copying (regular in Main,
allocated but outside of Main, or not allocated by ID handling code at
all) is stored in ID's, which allows to handle them correctly when
freeing. This needs to be taken care of with caution when doing 'weird'
unusual things with ID copying and/or allocation!
As a final note, while rather noisy, this commit will hopefully not
break too much existing branches, old 'API' has been kept for the main
part, as a wrapper around new code. Cleaning it up will happen later.
Design task : T51804
Phab Diff: D2714
Noisy change, but safe, and better do it sooner than later if we are to
rework copying code. Also, previous commit shows this *is* useful to
catch some mistakes.
Things like `BLI_uniquename` had nothing, but really nothing to do in
BLI_path_util files!
Also, got rid of length limitation in `BLI_uniquename_cb`, we can use
alloca here to avoid overhead of malloc while keeping free size (within
reasonable limits of course).
When there were no prior palettes, creating a new one didn't automatically make it active.
This caused problems when trying to rename the color, as the RNA code assumed that if there's
a color, it must come from the active palette.
This commit partially fixes the problem by ensuring that if there are no palettes, the first
one will always be made active.
This function is only really secure in a very limited amount of cases,
and can especially bite you later if you change some buffer sizes...
So not worth bothering with it, just always use BLI_strncpy instead.
Adding make_local for vfont/gpencil/group/freestyle linestyle/mask/scene/sound/text.
Note that there are still some lose ends here, since some type are not handled by id_copy
(Scene, Sound and VFont), which means in case a datablock of that type is used both
directly and indirectly, localization will fail.
Scene copying might be doable though (maybe with a simple new 'full shalow' mode to existing BKE_scene_copy?),
not sure about sounds and vfonts... Situations where this becomes an issue should be very rare corner cases anyway.
This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)
Review task: D2027 (https://developer.blender.org/D2027).
Reviewed by campbellbarton, thanks a bunch.
After some test, a new iteration parameter has been added in order to
apply repetitive smoothing to the stroke. By default 1 iteration is applied,
but can used any number between 1 and 3.
The repetition uses different levels of intensity from 100% of the defined smooth
factor for the first loop, 50% for the second and 25% for the third. We use in each
loop a smaller value in order to avoid deform too much the stroke.
Improve filling for concave shapes using a triangulation of the stroke.
The triangulation information is saved in an internal cache and only is
recalculated if the stroke changes.
The triangulation is not saved in .blend file.
