Also addressed code inconsistency due to changes in the trunk revision 50628 (color
management with OCIO) and 50806 (UV project material). OCIO-related changes are marked
OCIO_TODO as in some other files modified in revision 50628.
updating data was only being done on the active object but sticly was being calculated for the selection.
split this into 2 operators, one that works on the selection and another that operates on the active object - so we can have a button in the mesh panels that calculates sticky.
also note that there was no way to calculate sticky from the UI - perhaps this feature should die a quiet death?
anyway - it works better then it used to for now.
Issue was caused by completely different way how multi-layer EXRs are loading,
they're bypassing general image buffer loading functions.
Solved by running color space transformation on render result construction
from multi-layer EXR image.
Also fixed issue with wrong display buffer computing for buffers with less
than 4 channels. Issues were:
- Display buffer is always expected to be RGBA
- OpenColorIO can not apply color space transformations on non-{RGB, RGBA}
pixels.
Regular rendering now works tiled, and supports save buffers to save memory
during render and cache render results.

Various bug fixes by Sergey and Campbell.
* Fix for reading freed memory in some node setups.
* Fix incorrect memory read when synchronizing mesh motion.
* Fix crash appearing when direct light usage is different on different layers.
* Fix for vector pass gives wrong result in some circumstances.
* Fix for wrong resolution used for rendering Render Layer node.
* Option to cancel rendering when doing initial synchronization.
* No more texture limit when using CPU render.
* Many fixes for new tiled rendering.
Issue was caused by the way how render result was acquiring -- pointer
to render data was used to find needed render descriptor. It's not
reliable since render contains copy of scene's render data, not pointer
to this data.
Use node scene's id name for render result acquiring, the same way
as it was done in old compositor system.
=== BVH build time optimizations ===
* BVH building was multithreaded. Not all building is multithreaded, packing
and the initial bounding/splitting is still single threaded, but recursive
splitting is, which was the main bottleneck.
* Object splitting now uses binning rather than sorting of all elements, using
code from the Embree raytracer from Intel.
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/embree-photo-realistic-ray-tracing-kernels/
* Other small changes to avoid allocations, pack memory more tightly, avoid
some unnecessary operations, ...
These optimizations do not work yet when Spatial Splits are enabled, for that
more work is needed. There's also other optimizations still needed, in
particular for the case of many low poly objects, the packing step and node
memory allocation.
BVH raytracing time should remain about the same, but BVH build time should be
significantly reduced, test here show speedup of about 5x to 10x on a dual core
and 5x to 25x on an 8-core machine, depending on the scene.
=== Threads ===
Centralized task scheduler for multithreading, which is basically the
CPU device threading code wrapped into something reusable.
Basic idea is that there is a single TaskScheduler that keeps a pool of threads,
one for each core. Other places in the code can then create a TaskPool that they
can drop Tasks in to be executed by the scheduler, and wait for them to complete
or cancel them early.
=== Normal ====
Added a Normal output to the texture coordinate node. This currently
gives the object space normal, which is the same under object animation.
In the future this might become a "generated" normal so it's also stable for
deforming objects, but for now it's already useful for non-deforming objects.
=== Render Layers ===
Per render layer Samples control, leaving it to 0 will use the common scene
setting.
Environment pass will now render environment even if film is set to transparent.
Exclude Layers" added. Scene layers (all object that influence the render,
directly or indirectly) are shared between all render layers. However sometimes
it's useful to leave out some object influence for a particular render layer.
That's what this option allows you to do.
=== Filter Glossy ===
When using a value higher than 0.0, this will blur glossy reflections after
blurry bounces, to reduce noise at the cost of accuracy. 1.0 is a good
starting value to tweak.
Some light paths have a low probability of being found while contributing much
light to the pixel. As a result these light paths will be found in some pixels
and not in others, causing fireflies. An example of such a difficult path might
be a small light that is causing a small specular highlight on a sharp glossy
material, which we are seeing through a rough glossy material. With path tracing
it is difficult to find the specular highlight, but if we increase the roughness
on the material the highlight gets bigger and softer, and so easier to find.
Often this blurring will be hardly noticeable, because we are seeing it through
a blurry material anyway, but there are also cases where this will lead to a
loss of detail in lighting.
render results would be displayed on loading new files if the scene names matches, now free render-results so as not to display stale data - also saves some memory.
Detect feedback loop and do not bake to images detected in this loop and show
nice warning message in such cases.
It's a way which wouldn't overcomplicate code trying to duplicate images and so
without real benefit.
details:
- setting format options from python isnt possible anymore since this isnt exposed via op->properties, python should use image.save() function instead.
- image save UI now hides 'Relative' option when copy is selected since it has no effect.
- default image depth is set to 8 or more if the image has no float buffer, otherwise its set to 32 or less.
other fixes:
- image new was adding an image with a filepath set to "untitled", if this file happened to exist in the current directory a save on the generated image would overwrite it, now initialize to empty path.
- BKE_ftype_to_imtype was returning an invalid value if ftype==0.

Additional changes:
* source/blender/makesrna/intern/rna_linestyle.c: Fixed white
space issues that generated a number of compiler errors. The
problem was that two string literals for enumerating MA_RAMP_SOFT
and MA_RAMP_LINEAR contained a space. The string literals are
supposed to represent a valid C identifier because of their use
for automatic code generation.
* Stroke transparency has been temporarily disabled due to a
functionality conflict with some merged changes. A fix of this
issue is planned.
Show overall progress when doing sequence rendering. Nice for cases when
you're using sequencer to combine video strips only, without rendering
scenes and so. If scene strips are used in sequencer, per-frame rendering
would be used (because of scene rendering sets per-frame progress).
* Scene.use_shading_nodes property to check if RenderEngine is using new shading
nodes system, and RenderEngine.bl_use_shading_nodes to set this.
* Add mechanism for tagging nodes as being compatible with the old/new system.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.6/Source/Render/RenderEngineAPI
* This adds a Rendered draw type in the 3D view, only available when
the render engine implements the view_draw callback.
* 3D view now stores a pointer to a RenderEngine.
* view_draw() callback will do OpenGL drawing instead of the viewport.
* view_update() callback is called after depsgraph updates.
