- Undo that changes modes currently asserts,
since undo is now screen data.
Most likely we will change how object mode and workspaces work
since it's not practical/maintainable at the moment.
- Removed view_layer from particle settings
(wasn't needed and complicated undo).
- Use a single undo history for all operations.
- UndoType's are registered and poll the context to check if they
should be used when performing an undo push.
- Mode switching is used to ensure the state is correct before
undo data is restored.
- Some undo types accumulate changes (image & text editing)
others store the state multiple times (with de-duplication).
This is supported by checking UndoStack.mode `ACCUMULATE` / `STORE`.
- Each undo step stores ID datablocks they use with utilities to help
manage restoring correct ID's.
Needed since global undo is now mixed with other modes undo.
- Currently performs each undo step when going up/down history
Previously this wasn't done, making history fail in some cases.
This can be optimized to skip some combinations of undo steps.
grease-pencil is an exception which has not been updated
since it integrates undo into the draw-session.

- Supports enabling categories.

You only had to close Blender through File -> Quit.
Leaks happened because WM_exit() was called from within operator, UI wasn't able
to free some of it's heap data then. This data was the handler added in
uiTemplateRunningJobs() and the IDProperty group added in uiItemFullO_ptr_ex().
There was obviously a general design issue which only became visible in this
specific case.
We now delay the WM_exit call by wrapping it into a handler that gets registered
as usual. I didn't see a better way to do this, all tricks done in
ui_apply_but_funcs_after() to prevent leaks didn't work here. In fact they may
be redundant now, but am not brave enough to try ;)
This is mostly to avoid re-compilation when using undo/redo operators.
This also has the benefit to reuse the same GPUShader for multiple materials using the same nodetree configuration.
The cache stores GPUPasses that already contains the shader code and a hash to test for matches.
We use refcounts to know when a GPUPass is not used anymore.
I had to move the GPUInput list from GPUPass to GPUMaterial because it's containing references to the material nodetree and cannot be reused.
A garbage collection is hardcoded to run every 60 seconds to free every unused GPUPass.
This separate context allows two things:
- It allows viewports in multi-windows configuration.
- F12 render can use this context in a separate thread and do a non-blocking render.
The downside is that the context cannot be used while rendering so a request to refresh a viewport will lock the UI. This is something that will be adressed in the future.
Under the hood what does that mean:
- Not adding more mess with VAOs management in gawain.
- Doing depth only draw for operators / selection needs to be done in an offscreen buffer.
- The 3D cursor "autodis" operator is still reading the backbuffer so we need to copy the result to it.
- All FBOs needed by the drawmanager must to be created/destroyed with its context active.
- We cannot use batches created for UI in the DRW context and vice-versa. There is a clear separation of resources that enables the use of safe multi-threading.
This is not an ideal solution but blender freeing system is already well tangled.
So tracking and clearing vao caches when destroying contexts does prevent bad behaviour.
This reverts commit 87c72a7d27.
Caused T54121 which breaks blend file saving.
For now crash on exit is preferable.
Possible solution is to free screen-manipulator batches in a separate
loop.
Use dynamically generated message publish/subscribe
so buttons and manipulators update properly.
This resolves common glitches where manipulators weren't updating
as well as the UI when add-ons exposed properties which
hard coded listeners weren't checking for.
Python can also publish/scribe changes via `bpy.msgbus`.
See D2917
This commit effectively reverts fix T45702 done in 067fe2719a.
Reasoning:
- Blender Internal is being replaced with Eevee, and will be removed entirely
rather soon.
- All render engines are planned to have own depsgraph, so such threading
conflicts should no longer be an issue.
- We don't want to spend time on porting workarounds for EOL things to a new
design. Less code -- faster the work :)
- If such notifications will end up needed for some other cases, we would
need to re-implement this a more proper depsgraph tagging/flushing and make
it to work with all copy-on-write datablocks and everything.
Running undo would notify manipulators to refresh,
but this still allowed for events in the queue to be handled,
where manipulators could be drawn for selection before
their refresh callback runs.
This made Python manipulators raise exceptions
about referencing invalid data (or crash).
Now tag manipulator update on file load (including undo)
and ensure the refresh callback runs
before drawing manipulator selection.
Also split manipulator map refresh flag in two since selection doesn't
perform the same operations as regular drawing.
Changes from custom-manipulator branch.
- use property type definitions.
- add property free callback.
- move properties into the wmManipulator struct (over alloc).
- use array length from property types instead of arg passing.
While this is work-in-progress from custom-manipulators branch
its stable so adding into 2.8 so we don't get too much out of sync.
- ManipulatorGroupType's are moved out of the manipulator-map and are now
global (like operators, panels etc) and added into spaces as needed.
Without this all operators that might ever use a manipulator in the 3D
view would be polling the viewport.
- Add optional get/set callbacks for non-RNA properties
Needed so re-usable manipulators can control values that
don't correspond to a single properly or need conversion.
- Fix divide by zero bug in arrow manipulator (when moving zero pixels).
Sync with custom-manipulators branch
- Use identifiers for properties.
- Property array index access.
- Remove operator from manipulators
(wasn't used and will likely add in a different way).
This commit does the main integration of workspaces, which is a design we agreed on during the 2.8 UI workshop (see https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.8/UI/Workshop_Writeup)
Workspaces should generally be stable, I'm not aware of any remaining bugs (or I've forgotten them :) ). If you find any, let me know!
(Exception: mode switching button might get out of sync with actual mode in some cases, would consider that a limitation/ToDo. Needs to be resolved at some point.)
== Main Changes/Features
* Introduces the new Workspaces as data-blocks.
* Allow storing a number of custom workspaces as part of the user configuration. Needs further work to allow adding and deleting individual workspaces.
* Bundle a default workspace configuration with Blender (current screen-layouts converted to workspaces).
* Pressing button to add a workspace spawns a menu to select between "Duplicate Current" and the workspaces from the user configuration. If no workspaces are stored in the user configuration, the default workspaces are listed instead.
* Store screen-layouts (`bScreen`) per workspace.
* Store an active screen-layout per workspace. Changing the workspace will enable this layout.
* Store active mode in workspace. Changing the workspace will also enter the mode of the new workspace. (Note that we still store the active mode in the object, moving this completely to workspaces is a separate project.)
* Store an active render layer per workspace.
* Moved mode switch from 3D View header to Info Editor header.
* Store active scene in window (not directly workspace related, but overlaps quite a bit).
* Removed 'Use Global Scene' User Preference option.
* Compatibility with old files - a new workspace is created for every screen-layout of old files. Old Blender versions should be able to read files saved with workspace support as well.
* Default .blend only contains one workspace ("General").
* Support appending workspaces.
Opening files without UI and commandline rendering should work fine.
Note that the UI is temporary! We plan to introduce a new global topbar
that contains the workspace options and tabs for switching workspaces.
== Technical Notes
* Workspaces are data-blocks.
* Adding and removing `bScreen`s should be done through `ED_workspace_layout` API now.
* A workspace can be active in multiple windows at the same time.
* The mode menu (which is now in the Info Editor header) doesn't display "Grease Pencil Edit" mode anymore since its availability depends on the active editor. Will be fixed by making Grease Pencil an own object type (as planned).
* The button to change the active workspace object mode may get out of sync with the mode of the active object. Will either be resolved by moving mode out of object data, or we'll disable workspace modes again (there's a `#define USE_WORKSPACE_MODE` for that).
* Screen-layouts (`bScreen`) are IDs and thus stored in a main list-base. Had to add a wrapper `WorkSpaceLayout` so we can store them in a list-base within workspaces, too. On the long run we could completely replace `bScreen` by workspace structs.
* `WorkSpace` types use some special compiler trickery to allow marking structs and struct members as private. BKE_workspace API should be used for accessing those.
* Added scene operators `SCENE_OT_`. Was previously done through screen operators.
== BPY API Changes
* Removed `Screen.scene`, added `Window.scene`
* Removed `UserPreferencesView.use_global_scene`
* Added `Context.workspace`, `Window.workspace` and `BlendData.workspaces`
* Added `bpy.types.WorkSpace` containing `screens`, `object_mode` and `render_layer`
* Added Screen.layout_name for the layout name that'll be displayed in the UI (may differ from internal name)
== What's left?
* There are a few open design questions (T50521). We should find the needed answers and implement them.
* Allow adding and removing individual workspaces from workspace configuration (needs UI design).
* Get the override system ready and support overrides per workspace.
* Support custom UI setups as part of workspaces (hidden panels, hidden buttons, customizable toolbars, etc).
* Allow enabling add-ons per workspace.
* Support custom workspace keymaps.
* Remove special exception for workspaces in linking code (so they're always appended, never linked). Depends on a few things, so best to solve later.
* Get the topbar done.
* Workspaces need a proper icon, current one is just a placeholder :)

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.
See docs:
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/advanced/app_templates.html
See patch: D2565
Can't see any reason to call AUD exit early in WM_exit, that's a
low-level module that has no dependency on anything else in Blender, but
is dependency of some other parts of Blender, so it should rather be
exited late in the process!
This commit lands the core backend of the Custom Manipulators project onto the blender2.8 branch. It is a generic backend for managinig interactive on-screen controls that can be integrated into any 2D or 3D edito. It's also already integrated into the window-manager and editor code where needed.
NOTE: The changes here should not be visible for users at all. It's really just a back-end patch. Neither does this include any RNA or Python integration.
Of course, there's still lots of work ahead for custom manipulators, but this is a big milestone. WIP code that actually uses this backend can be found in the 'custom-manipulators' branch (previously called 'wiggly-widgets').
The work here isn't completely my own, all the initial work was done by @Antony Riakiotakis (psy-fi) and - although it has changed a lot since them - it's still the same in essence. He definitely deserves a big credit! Some changes in this patch were also done by @Campbell Barton (campbellbarton). Thank you guys!

Uses similar way of storing temp data as object copy paste, just
uses different read entrypoint which does not modify current bmain.
This gives ability to easily copy-paste poses from one blender to
another one.
Hopefully doesn't introduce user-measurable differences.

When WITH_INPUT_NDOF is disabled, 3D mouse handling code is removed
from:
- GHOST (was mostly done, finished the job)
- window manager
- various editors
- RNA
- keymaps
The input tab of user prefs does not show 3D mouse settings. Key map
editor does not show NDOF mappings.
DNA does not change.
On my Mac the compiled binary is 42KB smaller after this change. It
runs fine WITH_INPUT_NDOF on or off.
This commit changes a lot of how IDs are handled internally, especially the unlinking/freeing
processes. So far, this was very fuzy, to summarize cleanly deleting or replacing a datablock
was pretty much impossible, except for a few special cases.
Also, unlinking was handled by each datatype, in a rather messy and prone-to-errors way (quite
a few ID usages were missed or wrongly handled that way).
One of the main goal of id-remap branch was to cleanup this, and fatorize ID links handling
by using library_query utils to allow generic handling of those, which is now the case
(now, generic ID links handling is only "knwon" from readfile.c and library_query.c).
This commit also adds backends to allow live replacement and deletion of datablocks in Blender
(so-called 'remapping' process, where we replace all usages of a given ID pointer by a new one,
or NULL one in case of unlinking).
This will allow nice new features, like ability to easily reload or relocate libraries, real immediate
deletion of datablocks in blender, replacement of one datablock by another, etc.
Some of those are for next commits.
A word of warning: this commit is highly risky, because it affects potentially a lot in Blender core.
Though it was tested rather deeply, being totally impossible to check all possible ID usage cases,
it's likely there are some remaining issues and bugs in new code... Please report them! ;)
