This changes a bit how the userprefs solid lights works. They are not
visible until enabling the "Edit Solid Light" checkbox. Once enabled the
current studiolight used for solid mode will be overwritten.
Once the lighting settings are tweaked, the user can click the
"Save as Studio light" button to save the current settings.
This makes it easy to create new lighting without messing the other
presets.
The studio lights are stored as ASCII files on the disk using a dead
simple custom format.
The UI/UX is not perfect and will be improved in other commits.
Also includes:
* Separate LookDev HDRI selection from Solid Lights
* Hide LookDev HDRIs from the Solid Lights selection list
Not sure what those #ifdef's were supposed to do exactly... But one
thing is for sure, clearing that flag in particlesettings after first
encounter would prevent transferring it properly to other objects that
would use same particlesettings.
The old onion skinning used in 2.7x has been ported and converted to 2.8. Only basic features have been included. For more advanced onion skin features, use grease pencil objects.
Onion Skin is supported in View 3D and Sequencer.
The approach is fairly simple, just apply an edge detection filter to the view normal and scale the brightness based on that.
The overlay is disabled at object boundaries to avoid dark lines around objects.
Generally, this implementation follows the proposal of @monio at https://blender.community/c/rightclickselect/J9bbbc.
The changes are:
- Dynamic filter radius (on high-DPI displays, a radius of two is used)
- Options to reduce the strength of both ridges and valleys
- Tweaked function for the strength reduction (the original method actually had a local maximum, resulting in a brighter line inside valleys)
- Multiplication for blending instead of overlay, which doesn't work reliably with scene-referred intensities
- Renamed to point out the distinction between it and the SSAO-based cavity overlay

Implements the first changes for T54115:
* Rename "User Preferences" window to "Settings" in the UI.
We'll likely put workspace settings in there, separate from the global
user settings. System settings should become separate from user
settings in future to allow settings for specific hardware.
* Add sidebar region for navigation (scrolls independently).
Addresses space problems, so we can add more categories as needed now.
* Increase size of Settings window to compensate new navigation bar.
* Group sections into User Preferences and System.
Icons for section groups by Andrzej Ambroz. Thanks!
* Bumps subversion for file compatibility.

I also added categories for future work, but commented them out.
We may also want to redesign contents of each section now.

This setting can be tweaked to improve glossy reflection cubemaps.
It increases the sample count for each roughness level.
This settings affect the lookdev mode quality as well.
This is a parameter that will make the interpolation between irradiance
cells of a same Irradiance Volume smoother, reducing the weight of the
light leaking correction factors.
It is usefull in some cases to avoid harsh lighting transition that can
happen when a sample point it near a surface.
This is an important change. Starting from now, all lights have a finite
influence radius (similar to the old sphere option for BI).
In order to avoid costly setup time, this distance is first computed
automatically based on a light threshold. The distance is computed
at the light origin and using the inverse square falloff. The setting
can be found inside the render settings panel > shadow tab.
This light threshold does not take the light shape into account an may not
suit every case. That's why we provide a per lamp override where you can
just set the cutt off distance (Light Properties Panel > Light >
Custom Distance).
The influence distance is also used as shadow far clip distance.
This influence distance does not concerns sun lights that still have a
far clip distance.
---
This change is important because it makes it possible to cull lights
an improve performance drastically in the future.
- Replace BKE_brush_getactive_gpencil -> BKE_paint_brush
(no need for per-paint-type brush access).
- Rename TOT_GP_EDITBRUSH_TYPES -> GP_EDITBRUSH_TYPE_MAX
(avoid sharing prefix w/ unrelated constants).
- Rename instances of `GP_EditBrush_Data` to 'gp_brush'
(`Brush` is typically called 'brush').
That kind of implicit includes should really only be done when totally,
absolutely necessary, and ideally only with rather simple 'second-level'
headers.
Otherwise not being explicit with includes always end up biting in
unexpected ways...
- Vertex & weight paint now use the 'blend' setting.
- Weight paint now has it's own tool setting,
since weight paint doesn't deal with color - we'll likely
support different tools eventually.
Now the grid is always controlled by the topbar selector and not in the canvas panel. To have two places to define orientation was confuse.
The orientation by default (no lock) is always to view plane.
The toolbar now shows brush types, the brush selector now
only shows brushes matching the current tool type.
Details:
- Add's Paint.tool_slots (used by the toolbar).
- Removed custom grease pencil brush tool code.
- Bumped subversion.
See T57526 for details.
This option make the internal render size larger than the output size in
order to minimize screenspace effects disapearing at the render edges.
The overscan size added around the render is the maximum dimension
multiplied by the overscan percentage.
Support for showing images in background/foreground and only in perspective/orthographic view.
Internally the depth of the image is modified in the fragment shader by setting `gl_FragDepth` explicitly.
The UI still needs some work to improve usability, see D3863 for details.
Currently there is one duplicated function, not sure how to best deduplicate it yet. (`is_image_empty_visible`)

This option allows to fade all layers except active one. This can help in very crowded scenes with a lot of layers, to verify you are working in the right one.
Moves the Properties editor context switching to a vertical tabs region.
Design Task: T54951
Differential Revison: D3840
The tabs are regular widgets, unlike the 'old' toolshelf tabs. This means they
give mouse hover feedback, have tooltips, support the right-click menu, etc.
Also, when vertical screen space gets tight, the tabs can be scrolled, they
don't shrink like the toolshelf ones.
The tab region is slightly larger than the header. The tabs are scaled up
accordingly. This makes them nicely readable.
The header is quite empty now. As shown in T54951, we wanted to have a search
button there. This should be added next.
Implementation Notes:
* Added a new region type, RGN_TYPE_NAVIGATION.
* Having the tabs in a separate region allows scrolling of the tab-bar, unlike
the toolshelf tabs. We might want to remove the scrollbars though.
* Added a new region flag RGN_FLAG_PREFSIZE_OR_HIDDEN, to ensure the tab region
is either hidden or has a fixed size.
* Added some additional flags to support fine-tuning the layout in panel and
layout code.
* Bumps subversion.
The grid now can be configured by object because this helps to identify objects and allows to define diferent grid parameters for each objects.
Also added a color option.
Custom handle settings actually affect the B-Bone rest shape,
so they should be changed in Edit mode rather than Pose mode.
This is necessary to be able to display the correct rest shape
of the bone in Edit Mode.
Also, instead of flags, introduce an enum to specify the handle
operation modes, so that new ones could be added later.

Users can select the main unit they want to use now.
Previously the displayed unit always depended on the magnitude of the value.
The old behavior can be restored by switching to the "Adaptive" mode for length, mass and time units.
Meters, kilograms and seconds are the default units for new and old scenes.
The selected unit is also the default unit for user input.
E.g. if cm is selected, whenever the user inputs a unitless number into a field of type length, it will be interpreted as cm.

This commit make the Xray option for the wireframe different from the other
shading mode. This makes it possible to rapidly switch between wireframe +
Xray and Solid mode without Xray.
Xray alpha is also decoupled.
Both variables are duplicated and exposed separately through RNA.
This commit includes several performance, stability, and reliability
improvements to cloth collisions.
Most notably:
* The implementation of a new self-collisions system.
* Multithreading of collision detection.
* Implementation of single sided collisions and normal overrides.
* Replacement of the `plNearestPoints` function from Bullet with a
dedicated solution.
Further, this also includes several bug fixes, and algorithmic
improvements.

In addition to the original map to surface and Keep Above Surface,
add modes that only affect vertices that are inside or outside
the object. This is inspired by the Limit Distance constraint,
and can be useful for crude collision detection in rigs.
The inside/outside test works based on face normals and may not be
completely reliable near 90 degree or sharper angles in the target.

Select minimum of render subdivision levels and 3 for
the initial value of quality. This way we don't force
too much quality for meshes which were not supposed to
be too much quality :)
This makes the Edit Mesh display settings common to all objects. They can
also be set differently per viewport.
Modifying extra data (seams, sharp edges etc...) will no longer set them
automaticaly visible.
Bumping version because we need to force set all extra draw options for
older files.
Since shape keys are stored as raw floating point data, this
unfortunately requires changes to all code that works with it.
An additional complication is that bezier and nurbs control
points have different entry size, and can be mixed in the same
object (and hence shape key buffer).
Shape key entries are changed from:
bezier: float v1[3], v2[3], v3[3], tilt, pad, pad;
nurbs: float vec[3], tilt;
To:
bezier: float v1[3], v2[3], v3[3], tilt, radius, pad;
nurbs: float vec[3], tilt, radius, pad;
The official shape key element size is changed to 3 floats,
with 4 elements for bezier nodes, and 2 for nurbs. This also
means that the element count is not equal to the vertex count
anymore.
While searching for all curve Shape Key code, I also found that
BKE_curve_transform_ex and BKE_curve_translate were broken. This
can be seen by trying to change the Origin of a Curve with keys.
