Blender is typically used maximized or fullscreen,
load maximized instead of attempting to fill the screen bounds.
To load un-maximized use '--window-border' argument.
See D4332
This feature is intended only for testing,
to automate simulating user input.
- Enabled by '--enable-event-simulate'.
- Disables handling all real input events.
- Access by calling `Window.event_simulate(..)`
- Disabling `bpy.app.use_event_simulate`
to allow handling real events (can only disable).
Currently only mouse & keyboard events work well,
NDOF, IME... etc could be added as needed.
See D4286 for example usage.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
This is still not fully correct, since the event loop is blocked by GHOST
and no timer events are happening for animation while the mouse is still.
But for the most part it looks ok.
Before this Blender always needed the Wintab driver. This adds support for the
native pressure API in Windows 8+, making it possible to get pressure sensitivity
on e.g. Microsoft Surface hardware without any extra drivers.
By default Blender will automatically use Wintab if available, and if not use
Windows Ink instead. There is also a new user preference to explicitly specify
which API to use if automatic detection fails.
Fixes T57869: no pressure sensitivity with Surface pen or laptop.
Code by Christopher Peerman with some tweaks by Brecht Van Lommel.

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.

Logic to update child windows on workspace changes should simply ignore
temporary child windows. Users opened those for a specific purpose (i.e. edit
user preferences or show render result). Blender should not come in and
repurpose it.
Grease Pencil already implements support for full-featured
per-brush pressure curves, but it is useful to have some
basic global settings that affect all brushes and tools.
This adds two simple options:
- Raw pressure required to achieve full brush intensity.
- Softness control, using a gamma curve internally.
The most important one is the max pressure setting, because it is
critical for ergonomics, but the Linux Wacom driver lacks it.
The softness option internally converts to gamma = 4^-softness.

Terms get/set don't make much sense when casting values.
Name macros so the conversion is obvious,
use common prefix for easier completion.
- GET_INT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_INT
- SET_INT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_INT
- GET_UINT_FROM_POINTER -> POINTER_AS_UINT
- SET_UINT_IN_POINTER -> POINTER_FROM_UINT
Was using UI_BLOCK_LOOP to control draw style,
this meant we couldn't use popup theme colors for cases
where it the interface has the same purpose as a popup but happens
not to use this flag.
instead of being ThreadLocal and leading to incorrect usage.
We still enforce no framebuffer when changing context. We can lift this
restriction later.
GPUFrameBuffers were being free when no context was attached or in the
wrong gl context. This make sure this does not happen again.
You can now safely free any gl resource from any thread (well as long as
it's not used anymore!).
This does not include all the struct and type renaming. Only files were
renamed.
gwn_batch.c/h was fusioned with GPU_batch.c/h
gwn_immediate.c/h was fusioned with GPU_immediate.c/h
gwn_imm_util.c/h was fusioned with GPU_immediate_util.c/h
There were a number of cases where immActivate() and immDeactivate() could
get out of sync, causing crashes due to using a freed mutex lock. Refactor
the code now to hopefully avoid this always.
It was a bit odd that the scene was stored per window but not the view
layer. The reasoning was that you would use different view layers for
different tasks. This is still possible, but it's more predictable to
switch them both explicitly, and with child window support manually
syncing the view layers between multiple windows is no longer needed
as often.
* Main windows show a topbar and statusbar, and select a workspace and
scene. They are created with Window > New Main Window.
* Child windows do not show a topbar or statusbar. These follow the
workspace and scene of their parent main window. Created with Window >
New Window or View > Duplicate Area into New Window.
* The purpose of this change is to support multi monitor setups where you
just want to put more editors on the other monitors. Without multiple
topbars and statusbars, working within a single workspace and scene.
Creating multiple main windows is intended to be a concious choice to
do different tasks in different workspaces and scenes.
* Note these changes do not currently affect how the operating system
treats the windows.
* When changing the workspace, the layout in all child windows changes.
This makes sense if we consider child windows to be just a way to
extend the main window across more monitors. In some case it may be
useful to keep the same layout though, we can add an option for this
depending on user feedback.
For example collapsing the lower part of the topbar with 2x interface scale
would hide the top-bar header region. There were also more asserts when changing
window size and moving area edges afterwards (same assert as in T55298).
Fixes are similar to e626998a26.
With all the recent fixes I've done, area geometry handling should be stable
again. Let's hope I'm right :)
