In {rBb279fef85d1a} the button that displays a texture in a Properties
Editor texture tab was added for geometry nodes.
Same commit will actually show them for Brush textures as well (but
disabled -- because the Texture users dont match).
This task is for finanlizing proper support for Brush textures as well.
There was originally a separate patch for this (see {D9813}) but most of
it was already implemented by above commit.
**what this solves**
from the default startup file:
- go to any sculpt or paint mode and add a texture to your brush
- observe the button to edit this texture in the Properties editor is
greyed out
{F9860470}
There are two possible solutions:
- [1] call the texture template for the brush `texture_slot` texture
(instead of the brush 'texture') from the python UI code, this is then
working in harmony how ButsTextureUser works for brushes
- [2] tweak the way `ButsTextureUser` works (dont rely on
`RNA_BrushTextureSlot` there)
This patch implements the first solution.
Since `brush.texture_slot` is `br->mtex` RNA wrapped and `brush.texture`
is `br->mtex.tex` RNA wrapped, this really comes down to doing the same
thing. I checked that creating a new texture and unlinking/deleting will
have the same results even though they take slightly different code
paths: assignment and NULLing the pointers are working on the same (see
above) and RNA update callbacks also do the same [even though in
different functions]:
- brush.texture will do rna_Brush_main_tex_update
- brush.texture_slot.texture will do rna_TextureSlotTexture_update /
rna_TextureSlot_update
(only difference here is an additional DEG relations update in the case
of texture_slot which should not do harm)

Following with the changes included to interpolate strokes of different number of points, a full review has been done in the interpolation tools.
* Interpolate now is a tool and not an operator. It was not logic to have this tool as a button.
* Interpolate tool parameters have been moved to topbar.
* Interpolate popover has been removed from topbar and interpolate `Sequence` operator has been moved to grease pencil menu.
* Interpolate Sequence now include a Redo panel.
* Interpolate tool now allows to select the strokes by pairs. This allows to interpolate any stroke with any stroke and not as before that it was only possible by drawing order. If no stroke is selected, the interpolation is done as before.
* Now is possible interpolate again if a previous keyframe exist. Before, it was impossible to interpolate two times in same frame and this made impossible to do the interpolation by groups of frames.
* New automatic option to `Flip strokes` if the stroke and end are not in the right position. Also the flip can be set manually for corner cases.
* Cleanup of menus related to interpolate.
* Fixed some bugs and removed parameters from scene because now all are tool or operator contained.
* Some code cleanup and function renames.
This commit also includes the some codebase to future implementation of the concept `Vertex Active` that now does not exist in grease pencil.
This commit is a refactor of the fill tool to solve several problems we had since the first version of the tool.
Changes:
* The filling speed has been improved for each step of the process with the optimization of each algorithm/function.
* New `AutoFit` option to fill areas outside of the viewport. When enable, the total size of the frame is calculated to fit the filling area.
* New support multiframe filling. Now it is possible to fill multiple similar frames in one go.
* New `Stroke Extension` option to create temporary closing strokes. These strokes can be displayed and adjusted dynamically using wheel mouse or PageUp/Down keys.
* Parameter `Resolution` now is named `Precision` and has been moved to topbar.
* `Resolution` now has decimals and can be lower than 1 to allow quick filling in storyboarding workflows. Maximum value has been set as 5.
* Parameter `Simplify` has been moved to Advanced panel.
* Improved fill outline detection. In some cases, the outline penetrated the area to be filled with unexpected results.
* Fixes some corner case bugs with infinite loops.
As a result of this refactor, also these new functionalities has been added.
* New support for multiframe in `Draw` mode. Any drawing in active frame is duplicated to all selected frame.
* New multiframe display mode. Keyframes before or after of the active frame are displayed using onion colors. This can be disable using Onion overlay options.
Adopt some of the newer layout abilities to
clean up the Particle Tool Properties a bit.
- Use in-line check-boxes next to values.
- Use text heading for Preserve toggles and mirror/topology mirror.

Set property split in the higher level panel functions so that it carries
over to buttons added after. Also discard the redundant "Symmetry"
to make sure there is enough space for the checkbox label.
The now redundant "X" checkbox is removed since it's also present in the
Symmetry panel above. The Topology Mirror is moved into the Symmetry
panel also.
This was needed because `Mesh.use_x_mirror` has recently been turned into
different functionality, and its old functionality now lives under
`Mesh.use_mirror_vertex_group_x`. Something went wrong in the UI in This

Many of these popovers could use a design pass in 2.91, but for 2.90 we
don't want to change any UI strings at this point, so the best way to
solve the cutoff text is to widen the popovers. Sadly this won't affect
popovers when other languages besides English have longer strings, but
solving that is a much larger task.
Another benefit is that tweaking sculpt / paint brush options feels much
less cramped with slightly wider popovers.
I only know of one string that is still slightly cutoff by default with
this patch, the "Max Element Distance" property of the pose brush in the
sculpt mode brush settings popover. But I didn't think it was worth
widening that popover more to deal with that one case.

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

We use column or row headings here to bring more structure, and to give
the eye visual anchors which aid eye-scanning. The left-aligned
checkboxes likewise help with this. And we keep the adherence to the
center line, so the alignment matches up between the various buttons and
controls.
* Changes the property split percentage from 50/50% to 40/60%. This is
needed to give enough space for the checkboxes. But in most cases this
looks better anyway - see Transform panel. In some cases it simply
fills out the available space more efficently.
* Fix various hacks where we previously used manually defined splits.
When we did this, the alignment was never quite right, and the layout
code was a mess.
* Adds column headings to many places where a list of checkboxes all
share a common purpose or leading text.
* Add checkbox + value configurations various places where a checkbox
only serves to enable the value slider
* Removes most uses of grid flow layout. The grid flow layouts combine
poorly with column headings, and also they would mess alignment up
badly. The grid flow layouts also often made buttons and controls jump
around on the screen if you would just resize editors slightly,
causing visual confusion, making users lose their place. The logic for
at what time the list of items would re-flow was often flawed, jumping
to multiple columns too fast or too late - and frankly, the grid flow
layouts would often just look bad.

Most work here by William Reynish, few changes by Julian Eisel.
In Blender 2.81 we update and draw all nodes inside the view planes.
When navigating with a pen tablet after an operation that tags the whole
mesh to update (like undo or inverting the mask), this introduces some
lag as nodes are updating when they enter the view. The viewport is not
fully responsive again until all nodes have entered the view after the
operation.
This commit delays nodes updates until the view navigation stops, so the
viewport navigation is always fully responsive. This introduces some
artifacts while navigating, so it can be disabled if you don't want to
see them.
I'm storing the update planes in the PBVH. This way I can add support
for some tools to update in real-time only the nodes inside this plane
while running the operator, like the mesh filter.
