Fixes an issue with secondary particles being out of sync with the main simulation. Cleaned up the secondary particle code in general too (making sure that all solver attributes - timestep, framelength, etc. - are set correctly).
It is not guaranteed that with Multires modifier existing there
will be CD_MDISPS and CD_GRID_PAINT_MASK custom data layers.
Fixes assert in the following scenario:
- With default cube, go to edit mode
- Add Multires modifier
- Remove the Multires modifier
Mpving utils from idcode to idtype proved to be somewhat painful for
some reasons, but now all looks good.
Had to add a fake/empty shell for the special snowflake too,
`ID_LINK_PLACEHOLDER/INDEX_ID_NULL`...
Is done by considering all base edges infinitely sharp.
In the future can become a different operator option to allow to mix
Catmull-Clark and simple subdivisions. For now just sticking to what
old good Blender versions were doing.
Fixes T74869: Simple subdivision type is not working as it should
The idea is following: only store information about edges which are
1. Communicated to the OpenSubdiv topology.
This rules out all loose edges, as they are not needed for the
propagation process.
2. Correspond to edge from the base mesh.
This avoids storing edges which are generated between inner face.
Those are not to have any sharpness to allow smooth propagation.
There is still possible to have memory peak in some obscure case when
mesh contains a lot of loose edges. It can be optimized further by
utilizing knowledge of the non-loose tags.
The title says it all actually. The test case is to get default cube,
set some edges to non-zero crease, add multires modifier and hit the
"Subdivide" button few times.
The memory footprint might be optimized by not storing information
about inner generated edges.
Makes it so conversion is centralized in a single place.
We might consider removing any conversion, passing value as-is which
will be easier for I/O scripts to match crease. The downside of that
would be loose of control range in certain qualities and values of
crease.
There shouldn't be any functional changes in this commit.
This patch include changes:
- Thicker and clearer selection indication
- Slimmer handles
- More transparent muted strips
- Trim frame number is drawn inside the strip
- Strip text is drawn in upper part of strip
- Color strips now have specific color, with chosen color drawn under strip text
- Transition strip will use color of input strips showing direction of transition

This patch implements dumping images from cache to HDD.
The main goal of this system is to provide a means to achieve consistent playback speed mainly for strips that are not possible to preview in real time.
How to use:
Disk cache has own settings in user preferences for path to storage, size limit and compression level.
To use disk cache, you need to check `Use Disk Cache` box, set `Disk Cache Directory`, `Disk Cache Limit` and save or open existing .blend file.
By default sequencer output will be cached only. Manual setting is possible in cache panel.
Uses:
- Replacement or alternative for proxies. Disk cache will work with any strip type, supports float images as well.
- Storage for strip thumbnails.
- Less RAM needs to be allocated for preview cache
How it works:
Disk cache is extension of RAM cache. Every image, that is stored or deleted in RAM will be stored or deleted on HDD as well. Images can be compressed to save space and for use on slower drives. Compressed images are slower to write and read though.
Images are stored in bulk of 100 rendered frames per one file. This is to overcome slow file access time for large amount of files. Drawback is, that if one frame needs to be redrawn, all 100 frames are deleted.

Unlike Linux where fseek/tell will be either 32 or 64 bit
depending on the target platform, it will always be 32 bit
on windows.
We had some macro magic in BLI_winstuff.h that substituted
them for 64 bit versions, but that is upsetting the system
headers if they get included after BLI_winstuff.h which
is problematic for D6811.
This diff adds proper functions in blenlib and updates
all calls that were using the BLI_winstuff.h header to
gain 64 bit file IO.
note: Anything that was using the 32 bit versions (ie not
including BLI_winstuff.h) will still be using the 32 bit
versions, which is perhaps a good code quality Friday project.

* Space: volume density and step size in object or world space
* Step Size: override automatic step size
* Clipping: values below this are ignored for tighter volume bounds
The last two are Cycles only currently.
Ref T73201
Only the volume drawing part is really finished and exposed to the user. Hair
plugs into the existing hair rendering code and is fairly straightforward. The
pointcloud drawing is a hack using overlays rather than Eevee and workbench.
The most tricky part for volume rendering is the case where each volume grid
has a different transform, which requires an additional matrix in the shader
and non-trivial logic in Eevee volume drawing. In the common case were all the
transforms match we don't use the additional per-grid matrix in the shader.

This check box alters how weights are displayed and painted,
similar to Multi Paint, but in a different way. Specifically,
weights are presented as if all locked vertex groups were
deleted, and the remaining deform groups normalized.
The new feature is intended for use when balancing weights within
a group of bones while all others are locked. Enabling the option
presents weight as if the locked bones didn't exist, and their
weight was proportionally redistributed to the editable bones.
Conversely, the Multi-Paint feature allows balancing a group of
bones as a whole against all unselected bones, while ignoring
weight distribution within the selected group.
This mode also allows temporarily viewing non-normalized weights
as if they were normalized, without actually changing the values.

NOTE: While most of the milestone 1 goals are there, a few smaller features and
improvements are still to be done.
Big picture of this milestone: Initial, OpenXR-based virtual reality support
for users and foundation for advanced use cases.
Maniphest Task: https://developer.blender.org/T71347
The tasks contains more information about this milestone.
To be clear: This is not a feature rich VR implementation, it's focused on the
initial scene inspection use case. We intentionally focused on that, further
features like controller support are part of the next milestone.
- How to use?
Instructions on how to use this are here:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/How_to_Test
These will be updated and moved to a more official place (likely the manual) soon.
Currently Windows Mixed Reality and Oculus devices are usable. Valve/HTC
headsets don't support the OpenXR standard yet and hence, do not work with this
implementation.
---------------
This is the C-side implementation of the features added for initial VR
support as per milestone 1. A "VR Scene Inspection" Add-on will be
committed separately, to expose the VR functionality in the UI. It also
adds some further features for milestone 1, namely a landmarking system
(stored view locations in the VR space)
Main additions/features:
* Support for rendering viewports to an HMD, with good performance.
* Option to sync the VR view perspective with a fully interactive,
regular 3D View (VR-Mirror).
* Option to disable positional tracking. Keeps the current position (calculated
based on the VR eye center pose) when enabled while a VR session is running.
* Some regular viewport settings for the VR view
* RNA/Python-API to query and set VR session state information.
* WM-XR: Layer tying Ghost-XR to the Blender specific APIs/data
* wmSurface API: drawable, non-window container (manages Ghost-OpenGL and GPU
context)
* DNA/RNA for management of VR session settings
* `--debug-xr` and `--debug-xr-time` commandline options
* Utility batch & config file for using the Oculus runtime on Windows.
* Most VR data is runtime only. The exception is user settings which are saved
to files (`XrSessionSettings`).
* VR support can be disabled through the `WITH_XR_OPENXR` compiler flag.

The initial code from earlier from today didn't really work reliable
since it is not possible to apply virtual modifiers but not the real
multires one (in a situation like mesh with shapekeys and multires).
New code uses less memory and has better performance for the case
when there are actual modifiers leading the multires. The case when
there is only multires will not be as performant as possible at this
moment.
The parenting was using the old logic, but with new engine the draw is done using eval data.
Fixed the depsgraph relationship missing with bones to get an update when the bone is transformed.
Also fixed Snap cursor to Selected
The code would have break the first (deform only) modifiers
once the index is reached, but it will not prevent second
loop (over remaining modifiers) from run.
This was applying deform modifier twice in some conditions:
having single deform modifier and calculating deformed mesh
up to the first modifier (index=0).
Use full argument name.
Also order arguments in the generosity order: from depsgraph
(which has everything) to object (which contains multires)
specific multires modifier.
