This addresses warnings from Clang-Tidy's `readability-else-after-return`
rule in the `source/blender/editors/sculpt_paint` module.
No functional changes.
This adds three functions to check the state of the stroke in the
StrokeCache, removing the references to first_time and
mirror_symmetry_pass from the code. This makes easier to understand what
each code path is doing inside of each tool.
Some tools were using mirror_symmetry_pass incorrectly, so this should
also fix unreported bugs with radial and tiling symmetry related to that.

Sculpt Vertex Colors is a painting system that runs inside sculpt mode, reusing all its tools and optimizations. This provides much better performance, easier to maintain code and more advanced features (new brush engine, filters, symmetry options, masks and face sets compatibility...). This is also the initial step for future features like vertex painting in Multires and brushes that can sculpt and paint at the same time.
This commit includes:
- SCULPT_UNDO_COLOR for undo support in sculpt mode
- SCULPT_UPDATE_COLOR and PBVH flags and rendering
- Sculpt Color API functions
- Sculpt capability for sculpt tools (only enabled in the Paint Brush for now)
- Rendering support in workbench (default to Sculpt Vertex Colors except in Vertex Paint)
- Conversion operator between MPropCol (Sculpt Vertex Colors) and MLoopCol (Vertex Paint)
- Remesher reprojection in the Voxel Remehser
- Paint Brush and Smear Brush with color smoothing in alt-smooth mode
- Parameters for the new brush engine (density, opacity, flow, wet paint mixing, tip scale) implemented in Sculpt Vertex Colors
- Color Filter
- Color picker (uses S shortcut, replaces smooth)
- Color selector in the top bar

Mix up with imapaint.paintcursor & imapaint.paint.paint_cursor
Remove imapaint.paintcursor since it wasn't used.
Also rename paint_cursor_start_explicit() to paint_cursor_start(),
removing the existing paint_cursor_start() since it took the paint
struct from the context, a value that's known by all callers.
This caused an additional argument when exiting object modes
and many other low level functions which don't need to access context.
This simplifies fixing T77073.
This patch enables TBB as the default task scheduler. TBB stands for Threading Building Blocks and is developed by Intel. The library contains several threading patters. This patch maps blenders BLI_task_* function to their counterpart. After this patch we can add more patterns. A promising one is TBB:graph that can be used for depsgraph, draw manager and compositor.
Performance changes depends on the actual hardware. It was tested on different hardwares from laptops to workstations and we didn't detected any downgrade of the performance.

The Layer brush was in Blender before 2.81, when the sculpt API was
introduced. It had a huge amount of bugs and glitches which made it
almost unusable for anything but the most trivial cases. Also, it needed
some hacks in the code just to support the persistent base.
The brush was completely rewritten using the Sculpt API. It fulfills the
same use case as the old one, but it has:
- All previous artifacts fixed
- Simpler code
- Persistent base now works with multires thanks to the sculpt API
- Small cursor widget to preview the layer height
- More controllable and smoother strength and deformation
- More correct masking support
- More predictable invert support. When using persistent base, the brush invert mode resets to layer height 0, instead of jumping from +1 to -1. The brush can still be inverted in the brush direction property.

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 old convention was easy to confuse with ScrArea.
Part of https://developer.blender.org/T74432.
This is mostly a batch rename with some manual fixing. Only single word
variable names are changed, no prefixed/suffixed names.
Brecht van Lommel and Campbell Barton both gave me a green light for
this convention change.
Also ran clan clang format on affected files.
After switching tools, the active vertex can be the same and the cursor
won't update the previews, so the pose_ik_chain_preview will be null.
This often happens in low poly meshes where chances of hovering the same
vertex are high.

This brush has a simple physics solver that helps when sculpting cloth.
- The mass and the damping properties of the simulation are properties of the brush.
- It has two additional radius control to limit the influence and falloff of the simulation.
- Masked vertices are pinned in the simulation, and it applies the sculpt gravity directly in the solver.
- The Cloth Brush has 7 deformation modes with 2 falloff types (radial and plane).
The brush can create the constraints only on the required PBVH nodes, so the simulation is isolated on high poly meshes. As long
as the brush size is not too big it should be possible to keep it real time.
Known issues:
- The way constraints are created is extremely basic and it creates repeated constraints. Maybe there is another way to create fewer constraints while keeping the simulation quality decent. This part can also be multithreaded. (As it is it works ok, but it could be better)

This commits introduces the pose_ik_segments brush property in the Pose Brush. When increasing the IK segments count, the brush generates more segments and weights associations following the topology of the mesh. When moving the brush, these segments are transformed using an IK solver and they are used to deform the mesh.
When pressing Ctrl, the brush controls the segments' roll rotation instead of using the IK solver. The brush falloff controls how much rotation is propagated from the first to the last segment in the chain.

Previously the alpha was hardcoded to 0.7. Now it is possible to control
the cursor alpha by changing the alpha color of the cursor color
property. New alpha default is 0.9. This, with the new saturated colors,
should make the cursor more visible on highdpi screens.
I also removed the cache location preview as it is too visible right now
with the new alpha and color values.

The relation between the pressure/size and the pressure/alpha is a
fundamental property that defines the behavior of a brush, so it does
not make sense to have it unified across all brushes. This applies both
for sculpting and painting.
Some of the new 2.82 brushes need pressure/size or pressure/alpha to be
enabled to work propely, while others don't. Users should not be
switching on and off this property manually when changing brushes if they
want to use unified size. This is also causing that some users are using
the brushes with an incorrect configuration.

The Multiplane Scrape brush creates sharp edges with a given fixed angle by trimming the mesh with two planes in local space at the same time. When working with stylized or hard surface models, this brush produces way better results and is more predictable than any other crease/flatten brush based on curves and alphas.
It is also the first brush we have than can produce hard surface concave creases.
The Multiplane Scrape Brush also has a dynamic mode where it samples the surface to fit the angle and scrape planes during a stroke. With this mode enabled you can sculpt multiple times over the same edge without creating artifacts.
It can also create creases that change between concave and convex during the same stroke.
The behavior of this brush will improve after merging patches like D5993 and its behavior in concave creases can still be improved, so I will keep tweaking its parameters and default values once we have all brush properties available.

By squaring the pen pressure and disabling BRUSH_SPACE_ATTEN the brush
feels like it has a bigger strength range, wich makes it easier to
control when applying less pressure in order to smooth sculpted
surfaces.
Each brush should have a custom input pressure curve by default to get
an optimal behaviour and make all brushes consistent, but that is going
to take some time to get it right.

With the previous behavior, it was impossible to manipulate areas with a lot of complex shapes like fingers, as the pose origin was calculated only with the topology inside the radius.
With pose offset, the previous method is used to calculate the direction of the "bone", and an extra offset is added on top of it. This way you can set the pose origin in the correct place in this kind of situations. The pose factor grows to fit the new rotation origin.

Particularly noticeable when vertex painting with a subsurf modifier.
In some cases every sculpt or paint stroke step would evaluate the dependency
graph. This should only happen for redraws. Now more selectively choose if the
dependency graph should be evaluated to initialize the view context. Doing it
