by Gaia Clary.
Rationale: the name was confusing and not always used consistently, and this
map itself is not something that can be layered, rather the map can be used
as texture coordinates in some layered setup.
The original intent was to indicate this contained more than just UV's, but
the game engine settings have already been moved out, and apparently users
didn't really get this from the name anyway.
details:
- setting format options from python isnt possible anymore since this isnt exposed via op->properties, python should use image.save() function instead.
- image save UI now hides 'Relative' option when copy is selected since it has no effect.
- default image depth is set to 8 or more if the image has no float buffer, otherwise its set to 32 or less.
other fixes:
- image new was adding an image with a filepath set to "untitled", if this file happened to exist in the current directory a save on the generated image would overwrite it, now initialize to empty path.
- BKE_ftype_to_imtype was returning an invalid value if ftype==0.
- use NULL rather then 0 for pointers
- use static functions where possible
- add own includes to ensure func's and their declarations don't get out of sync.
- Added support of variable size sensor width and height.
- Added presets for most common cameras, also new presets can be defined by user.
- Added option to control which dimension (vertical or horizontal) of sensor
size defines FOV. Old behavior of automatic FOV calculation is also kept.
- Renderer, viewport, game engine and collada importer/exporter should
deal fine with this changes. Other exporters would be updated soon.
Show overall progress when doing sequence rendering. Nice for cases when
you're using sequencer to combine video strips only, without rendering
scenes and so. If scene strips are used in sequencer, per-frame rendering
would be used (because of scene rendering sets per-frame progress).
this works by tagging functions, eg:
def my_func(scene):
pass
bpy.app.handlers.permanent_tag(my_func, True) # <-- important bit
bpy.app.handlers.frame_change_pre.append(my_func)
* Scene.use_shading_nodes property to check if RenderEngine is using new shading
nodes system, and RenderEngine.bl_use_shading_nodes to set this.
* Add mechanism for tagging nodes as being compatible with the old/new system.

* This adds a Rendered draw type in the 3D view, only available when
the render engine implements the view_draw callback.
* 3D view now stores a pointer to a RenderEngine.
* view_draw() callback will do OpenGL drawing instead of the viewport.
* view_update() callback is called after depsgraph updates.

* RenderEngine is now a persistent python object that exists and retains
properties as long as a frame is being rendered. This is mostly useful now
that more than one callback will be added.
* Added update() callback that should ideally be used to export the scene,
leaving only the rendering to the render() callback. This is not required to
be used at this point, but separating this will make things more thread safe
later on.
* Added tag_redraw() and tag_update() functions that will be used for viewport
rendering.
* Internal change: status text is now retained after update_status calls.
* Redesigned alpha blending and paint drying algorithms. Now it gives much better results when using low brush alpha or when surface has initial color set.
* Fix: "Slow" dissolve/dry was scaled incorrect when using substeps. Also adjusted time to better match non-"slow" setting.
* Fixed possible issues when using image textured brush.
* Fix: particle brush panel was no longer visible since last commit.
* Adjusted default surface values.
* Some more code cleanup.
