`BLI_space_transform_from_matrices()` defines a 'global-invariant' transform
(same point in global space, two different coordinates in local and target spaces).
New `BLI_space_transform_global_from_matrices()` is kind of opposite, it defines
a 'local-invariant' transform (two different points in global space, same coordinates in local and target spaces).
Useful to 'match' meshes.
That's really annoying that multiplication order is flipped
comparing mat3 and mat4 cases, but for the purposes of not
breaking all the branches which might use this stuff we'd
better keep order consistent with old version for now.
Suggestion here would be to make order consistent but rename
this functions to mult_* to make compilation fail instead
of failing and using wrong order silently.
It still warns the user that there may be an error, but the baking goes
on. Also using the new is_uniform_scaled_m4() instead of float comparison.
Reported and fix suggested by Campbell Barton as a concern over 2bfc3deb
Issue was caused by inverting a degenerate matrix when
evaluating drivers.
Solved by using tweaked inverse code (same as used in Cycles).
Should have no affect on cases when matrix is not degenerate.
Because of our release soon, feature has been added behind the Debug Menu.
CTRL+ALT+D and set it to -1. Or commandline --debug-value -1.
When debug set to -1, you can put the viewport to 'render' mode, just like
for Cycles. Notes for testers: (and please no bugs in tracker for this :)
- It renders without AA, MBlur, Panorama, Sequence, Composite
- Only active render layer gets rendered. Select another layer will re-render.
- But yes: it works for FreeStyle renders!
- Also does great for local view.
- BI is not well suited for incremental renders on view changes. This only
works for non-raytrace scenes, or zoom in ortho or camera mode, or for
Material changes. In most cases a full re-render is being done.
- ESC works to stop the preview render.
- Borders render as well. (CTRL+B)
- Force a refresh with arrow key left/right. A lot of settings don't trigger
re-render yet.
Tech notes:
- FreeStyle is adding a lot of temp objects/meshes in the Main database. This
caused DepsGraph to trigger changes (and redraws). I've prepended the names
for these temp objects with char number 27 (ESC), and made these names be
ignored for tag update checking.
- Fixed some bugs that were noticable with such excessive re-renders, like
for opening file window, quit during renders.
