The algorithm averages normals from nearby surfaces. It uses the same
sampling strategy as BSSRDFs, casting rays along the normal and two
orthogonal axes, and combining the samples with MIS.
The main concern here is that we are introducing raytracing inside
shader evaluation, which could be quite bad for GPU performance and
stack memory usage. In practice it doesn't seem so bad though.
Note that using this feature can easily slow down renders 20%, and
that if you care about performance then it's better to use a bevel
modifier. Mainly this is useful for baking, and for cases where the
mesh topology makes it difficult for the bevel modifier to work well.

This fix enables the usage of bbones easing parameters for edit and pose mode seperately. This allows animators to take advantage of the functionality and may eliminate confusion as the parameters now behave similar to other bbone parameters.
Note that splitting the parameters between the modes effectively creates a new parameter set. Blend files of previous versions do not contain this information and will have the values set to 0 on load. As it broke backwards compatibility for pose mode values anyway, I also took the liberty to rename the easing parameters in some places for consistency (which breaks edit mode values).

Changes from D2876 by @meta-androcto /w own edits
Move 3x undo items into Undo menu,
these are such common operations they're typically accessed by keys.
Also add to menus which didn't have undo
(seemed random which modes had undo, undo history in their menus).
Changes from D2876 by @meta-androcto /w own edits
- Move view axis & camera selection into "Viewpoint" menu.
- Move render border and clipping into border menu.
- Move Camera operators into own menu.
- View Selected was located in two menus,
Only expose the "use_all_regions" version when quad-view is used.
This makes brush influence into a tube instead of a sphere.
It can be used along the outline of a mesh to adjust it's silhouette.
Note that all this takes advantage of changes from vertex paint,
from testing this seems useful so exposing from the brush options.
This secondary accumulation option accumulated brush falloff.
The same option in image painting accumulates color
as vertex paiht 'Spray' does.
Giving this option different behavior for vertex paint seems strange.
Also this is basically increasing falloff over time.
Remove the new code, expose existing 'Spray' as 'Accumulate'
to match other paint modes.
This makes vertex paint match image painting more closely.
- Add falloff shape option sphere/circle
where sphere uses a 3D radius around the cursor and
circle uses a 2D radius (projected), like previous releases.
- Add normal angle option so you can control the falloff.
- Add Cull option, to paint onto faces pointing away.
Disabling normals, culling and using circle falloff
allows you to paint through the mesh.
GSOC 2017 by Darshan Kadu, see: D2859.
This is a partial merge of some of the features from
the soc-2017-vertex_paint branch.
- Alpha painting & drawing.
- 10 new color blending modes.
- Support for vertex select in vertex paint mode.
2016 GSOC project by @nathanvollmer, see D2150
- Mirrored painting and radial symmetry, like in sculpt mode.
- Volume based splash prevention,
which avoids painting vertices far away from the 3D brush location.
- Normal based splash prevention,
which avoids painting vertices with normals opposite the normal
at the 3D brush location.
- Blur mode now uses a nearest neighbor average.
- Average mode, which averages the color/weight
of the vertices within the brush
- Smudge mode, which pulls the colors/weights
along the direction of the brush
- RGB^2 color blending, which gives a more accurate
blend between two colors
- multithreading support. (PBVH leaves are painted in parallel.)
- Foreground/background color picker in vertex paint
It has been deprecated since at least macOS 10.9 and fully removed in 10.12.
I am unsure if we should remove it only in 2.8. But you cannot build blender with it supported when using a modern xcode version anyway so I would tend towards just removing it also for 2.79 if that ever happens.

The issue was caused by operator redo which frees all object's evaluated data,
including bounding box. This bounding box can not be reconstructed properly
without full curve evaluation (need to at least convert font to nurbs, which is
not cheap already).
Previously only the active object was used.
Use coroutines to support baking frames for multiple objects at once,
without having to playback the animation multiple times.
This patch adds "Pixel Size" to the performance options, which allows to render
in a smaller resolution, which is especially useful for displays with high DPI.

Own previous fix (rBd5d626df236b) was not valid, curves are actually
supported by SoftBodies. It was rather a mere UI bug, which was not
including Surfaces and Font obect types in those valid for softbody UI.
Thanks to @brecht for the head up!
Also, fix safe for 2.79, btw.
Adds thin/default/thick modes to add -1/0/1 to the auto detected line width,
while leaving the overall UI scale unchanged.
Also tweaks the default line width threshold, so thicker lines start from
slightly high UI scales.

In the future we should make these two buttons on one line
However because we need `gen_context = 'PAINT_STENCIL'`
this is a little hard and we need to find a proper solution.
One might be using `context_pointer_set`

* Display a warning above the pose list if the pose library is in an invalid
state (i.e. when it has keyframes but no pose-markers associated with those
keyframes). This warning prompts users to run the "Sanitize Pose Library Action"
operator, which should fix up such issues.
* "Sanitize" operator now creates unique names for each newly create pose
marker it generates, including the frame on which it found the pose
Reorder keyingsets registration order, since it also afects order of I
menu options, better show most used ones first, pure alphabetical order
is not great here... Will likely break some muscle memory though. :|
Based on D2720 by Carlo Andreacchio (@candreacchio), thanks.
Replaces the placeholder 'emtpy' icons of "Force Field" and "Group
Instance" entries in object-add menu with proper new ones.
Icons by @zlsa, thanks a lot!
