Similar to the Principled BSDF, this should make it easier to set up volume
materials. Smoke and fire can be rendererd with just a single principled
volume node, the appropriate attributes will be used when available. The node
also works for simpler homogeneous volumes like water or mist.

Instead of calling an operator I just call `collection.new()`. Moving the
code into a separate function also simplifies it. In its new form there is
also no undefined behaviour when me.vertex_colors is non-empty but without
active layer.
- normalize → average the vector: the vector isn't normalized here, because
it doesn't necessarily becomes unit length. Instead, the sum is converted
to an average vector.
- angle is the acos()…: the dot product between the vertex normal and the
average direction of the connected vertices is computed, and not the
opposite.
- The initial `con` list was discarded immediately and replaced by a new
list.
- File didn't end with a newline.
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 operator relies on a rather specific context setup, so it shall not
be exposed to user in 'operator search' menu etc.
Based on D2528 by Vuk Gardašević (lijenstina).
This adds the ability to switch between different application-configurations
without interfering with Blender's normal operation.
This commit doesn't include any templates,
so its mostly to allow collaboration for the Blender 101 project
and other custom configurations.
Application templates can be installed & selected from the file menu.
Other details:
- The `bl_app_template_utils` module handles template activation
(similar to `addon_utils`).
- The `bl_app_override` module is a general module
to assist scripts overriding parts of Blender in reversible way.

This revision extends the functionality of the "Fill Range by Selection" button in
the "Distance from Camera/Object" modifiers so that only selected mesh vertices
in the edit mode are taken into account (instead of considering all vertices when
in the object mode) to compute the min & max distances from the reference.
This will give users much finer control on the range values.
Distance calculation performed by the "Fill Range by Selection" button of the
"Distance from Camera" color, alpha and thickness modifiers was incorrect,
limiting the usefulness of the functionality.
The problem was that the distance between the camera and individual vertex
locations was calculated in the world space, which was inconsistent with the
distance calculation done by the modifiers in the camera space.
The settings.frame_start rna was clamping frame start to frame end when frame start was bigger than frame end.
The fix is simply to set frame end first
Include idea that Blender may fail to launch it even if path is correct,
in some cases (dear Windows...).
Based on idea from @lijenstina and @blendify (D2349), thanks.
This code has not been used for a long time if not ever.
Most of the code was removed in rB1d3609262704f88c9e30b2cebdb236110b25cdc9
however, this was forgoten.
compiled.
This adds a short message to the smoke, remesh and boolean modifiers' UI
when trying to use them when their compilation was turned off. This was
already implemented for the fluid and ocean simulation modifiers.
This also makes the 'quick fluid' and 'quick smoke' operator abort and
report when trying to use them when unavailable.
This is no longer needed since moving to MPoly/MLoop data structure.
Also use 3x3 matrix for transforming instead of quaternion
(slightly better performance).
Previously, it was only possible to choose a single GPU or all of that type (CUDA or OpenCL).
Now, a toggle button is displayed for every device.
These settings are tied to the PCI Bus ID of the devices, so they're consistent across hardware addition and removal (but not when swapping/moving cards).
From the code perspective, the more important change is that now, the compute device properties are stored in the Addon preferences of the Cycles addon, instead of directly in the User Preferences.
This allows for a cleaner implementation, removing the Cycles C API functions that were called by the RNA code to specify the enum items.
Note that this change is neither backwards- nor forwards-compatible, but since it's only a User Preference no existing files are broken.

Feature request during bconf, makes sense to have it even as an hack for
now, since this is probably one of the most common use cases. This should
be redone in bmesh once we have proper custom noramls handling in edit mode...
