Reduce complexity of `rna_SpaceDopeSheetEditor_action_update()` by flipping
conditions and returning early.
The depsgraph tagging has slightly changed, in that the depsgraph is not
tagged at all when there is no actual animation data added. I still see
this as a non-functional change, though, as in that case nothing changed
and tagging and re-evaluating wouldn't make any actual difference.
No functional changes.
This implements a new overlay that blends the bakground color over the
objects that are not in the same mode as the active object, making
them fade with the background.
This is especially needed for sculpt mode as there is no other overlay
or indication in the viewport to display which object is active.
This is intended to be used with D7510 in order to have a faster
workflow when sculpting models with multiple objects.

This adds an option for the HDRI rotation to follow the view rotation.
When this option is enabled, this allows EEVEE materials to be used as
matcaps for sculpting and painting.
This has an extra performance cost when orbiting around the model as the
lookdev cache needs to be recalculated, but in my test it is barely
noticeable.

This adds a search bar to the properties editor. The full search for
every tab isn't included in this patch, but the interaction with
panels, searching behavior, UI, region level, and DNA changes are
included here.
The block-level search works by iterating over the block's button
groups and checking whether they match the search. If they do, they
are tagged with a flag, and the block's panel is tagged too. For
every update (text edit), the panel's expansion is set to whether
the panel has a result or not. The search also checks for matching
strings inside enums and in panel labels.
One complication to this that isn't immediately apparent is that
closed panel's subpanels have to be searched too. This adds some
complexity to the area-level panel layout code.
Possible Future Improvements:
- Use the new fuzzy search in BLI
- Reset panels to their expansion before the search started if
the user escape out of the text box.
- Open all child panels of a panel with expansion.

There are some areas that don't handle pure emissive colors well. For
example erasing alpha using 2d or 3d painting. Or blurring an image in
the compositor.
This patch makes the rendering of pure emissive colors optional. In the
side panel of the Image editor it can still be enabled when needed.
There currently isn't a better place to store it as it is related on how
the image (or a layer of the image) is created. A future design needs to
make sure that the full workflow is supported.
Add a column of icons in the left gutter of the outliner for controlling
the interaction modes of objects. When an object is in a mode other than
object mode, the mode icon will draw to the left of that object. Any
other objects that are valid to be added or swapped into the mode are
drawn with a dot to the left of the object.
Clicking the dot to the left of an object will swap that object with the
current active object in the interaction mode. For edit and pose modes,
ctrl clicking the dot will add that object to the current mode.
Clicking the mode icon next to the active object removes it and all
other objects from the current mode.
The behavior is nearly identical to the previous edit/pose mode toggling
by selecting the mesh and armature datablocks, with additional support
for all interaction modes.
Currently two undo steps are pushed to prevent an assert.

We have established a convention of exposing the most important
settings from popovers, then aligning a popover to control more
detailed settings.
The file browser has powerful display / filtering settings, but
they're hidden in popovers at the moment, so it's sometimes a pain
to use them. The "display as" options are now exposed to the left of
the display settings popover, and the "filter" toggle is exposed to
the left of the filter settings popover. This convention is familiar
and intuitive for users and makes interaction faster.
Note that the "show hidden" item in the filter popover still has an
effect if filtering is disabled.
This commit also:
- Removes the icons in the "Sort By" enum
- Uses property split for the "Sort By" enum
- Very slightly increases the default width of the file browser
window to make room for the new buttons.

In EEVEE the AO renderpass influenced other render passes. Until now the
pass wasn't selectable when AO was disabled in the scene to remove these
render artifacts.
This patch allows rendering EEVEE AO pass without enabling it in the
scene. It does this by binding a fallback texture that is used by the
surface shaders.

In this mode the preview image is always using the most of the preview
area space: it is scaled to fit, preserving aspect ratio. This makes it
possible to always have maximum of the preview region even after resize
of other areas.
This mode is enabled by default, is available in the View -> Zoom to Fit
menu. It is enabled when View All (Home key) is used, and is disabled
when manual navigation ([panning, zooming) is performed.
There is no versioning code, which means existing files will open as-is,
but new projects will have this option enabled.

When using the image editor the display channels attribute can become
invalid when selecting another image/buffer. This patch will check what
display channels are valid and when an invalid channel is selected it
will fall back to the color channel.

`ED_space_image_get_display_channel_mask` function that will determine
the valid bitflags for the display channel of a given `ImBuf`.
NOTE: While most of the milestone 1 goals are there, a few smaller features and
improvements are still to be done.
Big picture of this milestone: Initial, OpenXR-based virtual reality support
for users and foundation for advanced use cases.
Maniphest Task: https://developer.blender.org/T71347
The tasks contains more information about this milestone.
To be clear: This is not a feature rich VR implementation, it's focused on the
initial scene inspection use case. We intentionally focused on that, further
features like controller support are part of the next milestone.
- How to use?
Instructions on how to use this are here:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/How_to_Test
These will be updated and moved to a more official place (likely the manual) soon.
Currently Windows Mixed Reality and Oculus devices are usable. Valve/HTC
headsets don't support the OpenXR standard yet and hence, do not work with this
implementation.

This is the C-side implementation of the features added for initial VR
support as per milestone 1. A "VR Scene Inspection" Add-on will be
committed separately, to expose the VR functionality in the UI. It also
adds some further features for milestone 1, namely a landmarking system
(stored view locations in the VR space)
Main additions/features:
* Support for rendering viewports to an HMD, with good performance.
* Option to sync the VR view perspective with a fully interactive,
regular 3D View (VR-Mirror).
* Option to disable positional tracking. Keeps the current position (calculated
based on the VR eye center pose) when enabled while a VR session is running.
* Some regular viewport settings for the VR view
* RNA/Python-API to query and set VR session state information.
* WM-XR: Layer tying Ghost-XR to the Blender specific APIs/data
* wmSurface API: drawable, non-window container (manages Ghost-OpenGL and GPU
context)
* DNA/RNA for management of VR session settings
* `--debug-xr` and `--debug-xr-time` commandline options
* Utility batch & config file for using the Oculus runtime on Windows.
* Most VR data is runtime only. The exception is user settings which are saved
to files (`XrSessionSettings`).
* VR support can be disabled through the `WITH_XR_OPENXR` compiler flag.
