What I removed here used to be needed in an earlier version of the
patch, to avoid use-after-frees. This is not the case anymore, so it
seems we can remove this.
Generally the context region code is very weak and inconsistent. If
things were done properly, the line I added shouldn't cause issues -
it's logically correct.
Also fixes T73475.
To issues caused this:
* The code to launch the filebrowser from a button didn't respect popup
menus stored in context
* There was actually no popup menu region stored in context for this
case. Doing so *may* introduce other issues, but the way I did things
already fixes all issues I've found.
To recreate the main issue:
* Set render and file browser to show in full-screen in the preferences
* Default scene, press F12 in 3D View
* Press Alt+S to save the image
* Escape the file browser
* Escape the image editor
The former 3D View would now show the image editor. This is a common
use-case that should work.
Full-screen code is a hassle to get to work as expected. There are
reports from 2.5, I did lots of work years ago to get these kind of
use-cases to work fine. But apparently I broke this one with a fix for
another common use-case in March (0a28bb1422).
This now stores hints in the space, rather than the area, which should
make things much more controlable and hopefully help us fix issues like
this.
Here are a few references describing further common issues (all should
work fine now): 0a28bb1422, e61588c5a5, T19296
Checked over this with Bastien, we agreed that at some point we should
do a big rewrite of all of this, for now this is acceptable.
For many users, this will make the File Browser window behave more like
what they would expect. It addresses the issue of the File Browser
becoming hidden behind the main window by clicking anywhere in the
latter. It communicates the interruptive, but temporary nature of the
operation a bit better.
Further, on tiling window managers the File Browser now opens as
floating by default, like in other applications.
Note that this also makes sure the File Browser is always opened as
separate window, so it doesn't re-use the Preferences, or any other
temporary window anymore. This seems to have been a common annoyance.
More concretely, this makes the File Browser window behave as follows:
* Stays on top of its parent Blender window, but not on top of
non-Blender windows.
* Minimizes with its parent window
* Can be moved independently
* Doesn't add an own item in task bars
* Doesn't block other Blender windows (we may want to have this though)
* Opens as floating window for tiling window managers (e.g. i3wm/Sway)
Further notes:
* When opening a file browser from the Preference window (or any
temporary window), the main window, as the file browsers parent is
moved on top of the Preferences, which makes it seem like the
Preferences were closed. This is the general issue of bad secondary
window handling as window activation changes. I made it so that the
window is moved back once the file browser is closed.
This behavior is confusing and would be nice to avoid. It's a separate
issue though.
* On most window managers on Linux the temporary window can not be
minimized and maximized, they disable that for dialog windows.
* On Windows and macOS, only minimizing is disabled, as there is no
decent way yet to restore a window if it's not shown in the taskbar.

Part of T69652.
There was a mix of old and new constants. Now have one list of WM_CURSOR_*
cursor types, using GHOST standard cursors when available and otherwise falling
back to our custom cursors.
Ref D5197
If the file browser was opened from an existing file browser editor
(using File -> Append would make the mouse hover the file browser in the
Shading workspace), we need special handling for closing the fullscreen
area.
This change brings back the old way of handling fullscreen closing.
Allow area joining even if the areas are not quite perfectly aligned.

Current frame is stored in a scene, and scene might have multiple view
layers. The inactive view layers were not informed about scene's frame
being changed, so when user switched back to view after changing scene
frame it was in an inconsistent state between current scene frame and
animation.
Now we tag scene for time changes, so dependency graph can catch up
and do proper update.
Currently tagging is from quite generic place. Probably better approach
would be to tag from where frame is actually being assigned. Downside
of this is that it's easy to miss some places.

- Header uses the button bounds.
- A margin is added to avoid clicking between buttons.

Add Object.local_view_get/set
Alternate fix which supports removing from local view & checking
if an object is in local view.
Also avoids redundant refresh.
Matches 2.7x Object.layer_local_view capabilities more closely,
without exposing the flag directly.
Steps to reproduce were:
* Maximize area (Shift+Spacebar in 2.7, Ctrl+Spacebar in 2.8)
* Open temp file browser (Ctrl+O)
* Cancel file browser (Esc) - should return to previous full-screen
* Press "Return to Previous" button
The previously maximized area would turn into a file-browser.
Note that the issue will still happen when opening old files saved while
in maximized area full-screen.
During screen to workspace/workspace-layout conversion, the first layout
of each workspace would be activated. For temporary full-screens, this
used to be the full-screen layout (IIRC), apparently it's now the
the layout to return to on "Back to Previous". So the 'previous' layout
would be activated, not the full-screen one.
When actually pressing "Back to Previous" now, the operator would first
free the active layout (which it assumes to be the temp full-screen -
wrongly in this case) and then try to activate the non-full-screen one,
causing use-after-free.
Convention was not to but after discussion on 918941483f we agree its
best to change the convention.
Names now mostly follow RNA.
Some exceptions:
- Use 'nodetrees' instead of 'nodegroups'
since the struct is called NodeTree.
- Use 'gpencils' instead of 'grease_pencil'
since 'gpencil' is a common abbreviation in the C code.
Other exceptions:
- Leave 'wm' as it's a list of one.
- Leave 'ipo' as is for versioning.

There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.
Fixes T58632: Particle don't update rotation settings
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.
