Previously outcome depended on order of edges,
now the longest boundary edges are rotated first,
then the faces connected edges.
This gives more predictable results, allowing regions containing
a vertex fan to be rotated onto the next vertex.
Was using an edge hash for triangle -> edge lookups,
updating triangle indices for each edge-rotation.
Replace this with half-edge which can rotate edges much more simply,
writing triangles back once the solution has been calculated.
Gives ~33% speedup in own tests.
A single diagonal axis was used for sorting coordinates,
the algorithm relied on users not having vertices axis aligned.
Use BLI_kdtree to remove doubles instead.
Overall speed varies, it's more predictable than the previous method.
Some typical tests gave speedup of ~1.4x - 1.7x.
`BMO_iter_as_array()` may fill less items than requested in given array,
so we have to update number of items to work on from its returned value,
otherwise code might try to use uninitialized memory.
Edge collapse was using bounding box center as the point to collapse to.
When collapsing multiple adjacent edges together, this caused
inconsistencies in placement of the collapsed point, depending on the
orientation of the edges in relation to the space axis.
This makes edge collapse use the mean point instead.
faces.
This was requested by script writers. Especially needed if beveling
wire edges with vertex_only.
Should be backward compatible as just adds two new keys to returned
dict in python ('edges' and 'verts').
TexFace complicates the now more popular shading pipeline by having
per-face images, see: T51382 for details.
To keep the ability to select a per-material edit-image
(used with UV-mapping workflow), the material now stores an image
which will be set when changing images in edit-mode.
This is used as a bake-target when not using Cycles too.
Use expanded names for bmesh primitive operations
(urmv jvke semv jfke).
Use 'bmesh_kernel_' prefix,
these functions aren't intended for wide use so favor readability.
Remove BM_face_vert_separate,
it wasn't used and only skipped step of finding correct loop of face.
Just return the face or NULL, like BM_edge_exists(),
Also for BM_face_exists_overlap & bm_face_exists_tri_from_loop_vert.
No functional changes.
Old code did some partial overlap checks where this made some sense,
but it's since been removed.
Not sure where this comes from, but code was converting BMEdge* to BMVert* to check oflags,
i.e. not accessing correct memory.
Regression, to be backported to 2.78a.
