Now, if the Autokey is not enabled, a new frame is not created and it is used the last active one. If no active frame, a message is displayed and the operation is canceled.
This is a common request for 2D artists.
Also, grease pencil was not working as Blender does in other areas.

This was reported for remesh and skin modifiers.
These dont preserve UV layers (and probably cannot in a reasonable way),
so instead let the UV Project modifier create a new (equally named) UV
layer (as was suggested by @brecht in T59376).

The `MAX_LIBARRAY` define was an annoying doublon to the `INDEX_ID_MAX` enum value
now defined in `DNA_ID.h`, and it is no more useful.
And comments were somewhat outdated. Also added an explanation about
chosen order for the `INDEX_ID_<IDTYPE>` order.
Pasting nodes can create new id relations, because nodes can reference IDs.
Therefore the depsgraph has to be updated when nodes are pasted.
We could somehow check if the pasted nodes referenced IDs, but I'm not sure
if this complexity is worth it.
Replace static methods with regular methods.
Now the 'Main' value is taken from the collection.
Needed to support multiple 'Main' instances in Python, see T86183.
Note that this still does not work when in the node group directly referenced
by the modifier, only in sub-node-groups. This limitation will be removed
at some point.
By default objects are no longer GC tracked, this removes some overhead
although it's not significant in my own testing.
- Only enable GC for StructRNA when 'WITH_PYTHON_SAFETY' is on.
- Only track StructRNA when their 'reference' is set.
- Add missing NULL check when 'WITH_PYTHON_SAFETY' is on
and objects new objects be created.
None of these properties can be animated, so it doesn't make sense
to leave space for decorators on the right side of the panels. In fact
that is what was intended, but they were not manually disabled
in all of the panels.
Because pressing enter will choose the current search item from the menu,
and there was no search item with an empty string, it was impossible to
clear the text of an attribute text field. This commit adds a simple "X"
icon in the top row when you delete the string.
This commit exposes the strings used in the node error messages for
localization. It also changes the message tooltip creation to
automatically add the period at the end, to be more consistent with
the (arguably bad) design of other tooltips in Blender.
Calling `TIP_` directly in the node implementation files allows us to
continue using `std::string` concatenation instead of passing variadic
arguments. It's also more explicit about which part of the message is
translated and which isn't. The files already include the translation
header anyway.
The SSS shader in Eevee has the following drawbacks (elaborated in {T79933}):
1. Glowing
2. Ringing. On low SSS jittering it is rendered a bunch of sharp lines
3. Overall blurriness due to the nature of the effect
4. Shadows near occlusions as in T65849
5. Too much SSS near the edge and on highly-tilted surfaces
{F9438636}

In the original shader code there was a depth correction factor, as far as I can understand for fixing light bleeding from one object to another. But it was scaled incorrectly. I modified its scale to depend on SSS scale*radius and made it independent from the scene scale. The scale parameter (`-4`) is chosen so that it makes tilted surfaces to have visually the same SSS radius as straight surfaces (surfaces with normal pointed directly to the camera).
This depth correction factor alone fixes all the problems except for ringing (pt. 2). Because of float-point precision errors and irradiance interpolation some samples near the border of an object might leak light, causing sparkly or dashed (because of aliasing) patterns around the highlights. Switching from `texture()` to `texelFetch()` fixes this problem and makes textures on renders visually sharper.
An alternative solution would be to detect object borders and somehow prevent samples from crossing it. This can be done by:
1. Adding an `object_id` texture. I think it requires much more code changing and makes the shader more complicated. Again, `object_id` is not interpolatable.
2. Watch gradient of depth and discard samples if the gradient is too big. This solution depends on scene scale and requires more texture lookups. Since SSS is usually a minor effect, it probably doesn't require that level of accuracy.
I haven't notice it in practice, but I assume it can make visible SSS radius slightly off (up to 0.5 px in screen space, which is negligible). It is completely mitigated with render sampling.

This is ported from Cycles and fixes issues with bump/normal mapping
giving weird reflections/lighting.
Fixes T81070 Specular light should be limited to normal pointing toward the camera
Fixes T78501 Normal mapping making specular artifact
Steps to reproduce:
- switch to Scripting workspace
- execute bpy.data.meshes['Cube'].copy()
- Outliner will not show the new mesh immediately
Now just send appropriate notifier.

The `bNodeLinkDrag` struct was NULL when dragging a node instead of
a link. It is allocated with `calloc` anyway, so this field doesn't
need to be explitely cleared.
This commit includes a few simple improvements to the direct mesh
boolean code added recently.
- Passing the transforms and meshes to `direct_mesh_boolean` as spans
makes the function easier to call from C++.
- The definition of `TransMat`, was unecessary when we have the
`float4x4` type already used elsewhere in C++ code.

The socket drag operator stored the index of the last picked socket
into RNA in case the mouse cursor leaves the link while dragging.
This id was not unique which is why sometimes a link from an other node
with the same id is picked.
This patch changes the way the last picked link is stored and stores a
pointer to the link directly into bNodeLinkDrag struct instead.

The Python API for the curve mapping widget offers the `update`
function, but no way to reset the view to the clipping rectangle.
This commit adds a blenkernel function for this operation,
and exposes it to the CurvMapping RNA API. This allows addons
to display a more user-friendly view of the data in this widget.

This commit adds a search for existing attributes when you click
on an attribute field. This is useful because otherwise you have
to remember which attributes should be available at each node in
the tree.
The fundamental complication is that this information is not
accessible statically. So the search data is only a cache from
the previous node tree evaluation. The information is added
with `BKE_nodetree_attribute_hint_add`, currently for every
input geometry socket for a single node.
This is only an initial implementation, and later versions will
expose the data type and domain of the attributes.

I landed D10527 in rB1a8aee0a7cec accidentally, and the version there was
missing a name change discussed in review. This commit just renames the
boolean variable controlling the special behavior for attribute search.
Original message meant for this change:
For geometry nodes we will use search buttons to display a list of
attributes available the last time the node tree was executed (D10519).
Because this list is just a hint, we need to be able to enter any string,
not just strings from the search items.
This patch adds a boolean option to string buttons to enable this.
The change is quite simple, changes to behavior are only required in
two places. The type-specific button struct changes help a lot here.

In Blender, we used to use the term 'draw' to refer to information
displayed to the user. For version 2.80, it was decided to change these
instances to 'display' instead. This was to avoid the ambiguity between
end-user drawing tools and display options.
From the Oxford English Dictionary:
- Draw: produce (a picture or diagram) by making lines and marks on
paper with a pencil, pen, etc.
- Display: show (data or an image) on a computer, television, or
other screen.
Therefore, we should use draw when referring to drawing tools for
making marks, but use display when referring to information
shown/displayed to the user. From a user POV, the computer displays
certain information, whereas the user draws a mark.
Apparently this change was not implemented consistently, so this patch
changes all remaining relevant instances of "draw".
