The only difference from 2.7x is that we were using glLineWidth(2.0) before,
which is not supported reliably in the latest OpenGL.
Big thanks to Clément Foucault for helping with this, on the design as well as
debugging the implementation.
For the records, I'm creating and destroying batches for the path geometry at
every draw. The pipeline is as follows:
1. Create GPUBatch with all the points
2. Create new shgroup with simple shader
3. Add call with the gpubatch
4. Save it in a linked list in stl->g_data
5. Free it after all drawing is done
The function must be static. The error was the definition in header file must be removed. This error was not detected by Microsoft compiler but Linux compiler fails.
The initial design assumed that there was only one object for each unique name, but that was not the case when instances were created.
Now, instances are supported and speed has been greatly improved when repetitions are used.
As a result of this change, the option to create objects has been removed in the Instances modifier. This option was strange and was also against Blender's design rules, since a modifier should never create objects. The old functionality of the modifier can be achieved with instances.
Also, several memory leakage problems that were not previously detected have been eliminated, and especially in the grid and in the drawing process
Onion Skin is not supported in multi-user datablocks. Support this, makes incompatible with instances. We need find a solution in the long term, but now it's better keep disabled and make instances work. Anyway, the new instances makes unnecessary to use muli-user datablocks.
* Draw bundle names.
* Draw bundle shapes (but spheres).
* Draw custom colors for bundles.
* Support selecting bundles.
* Object bundles also fully tested.
Missing from this commit:
* Camera path.
* Spheres are not drawn as solid.
* Blue dashed line from camera to tracker objects.
Note to myself, next time, better check the fix before pushing it.
GL_ARB_texture_gather is defined if there is support for the extension
not only when the extension is enabled. Do this check ourself with
GPU_ARB_texture_gather define.
Original fix 822de6e9e1
A lot of code in codegen was used by previous GLSL system.
Now most of it is not used due to all the things being written from scratch
in 2.8 and we can clean most of it.
As a side not this make the system a bit less flexible (no support for
cubemaps, preview image, etc...) but can be extended again.
The extension GL_ARB_texture_gather is reported to be supported and does
not trigger an error when enabled but the textureGater functions are not
defined.
Workaround is to disable the use of this extension on such systems.
This lower the use of texture samplers slots and let users use more real
textures in their shaders.
This patch also make the ramp texture 16 bit floating point. Meaning you
can now use value greater than one in your color ramps.
With the limit of 128 colorband per shader (a color band being either a
color ramp, a wavelength node or a curve node (and maybe wavelength node in
the future)).
Only drawback with the current implementation is that it does not remove
colorband from pruned GPUNodes but it shouldn't really matter in practice.
This should fix T56010
This is more like a static optimisation when some parameters are set to 1.0
or 0.0. In theses case we use a more optimized version of the node.
This also revisit the transmission parameter behaviour to make it closer to
cycles.
This memory leak was undetected during a long time, but with new memory checking is visible.
The problem was the stroke buffer batch was realocating new batches without free the memory.
