Browsing screens via menu disabled screen editing (area divider drag) and made
popup menu hanging (select same editor for example).
Caused by bug fix#35434, commit gets rewinded, and report reopened.
- reverted fix for bug 32537 (error report drawing after thread job didn't show)
This solves very bad 3d view render updates while using transform, it was
getting into an eternal feedback loop for dependencies. (jobs sending mousemoves
causing jobs to end, causing mousemoves, causing etc).
- The render-update code was not going over all windows, but over every screen to
send signals (also the invisble ones)
* Editing number of segments for particle hair did not update the viewport.
* Hidden particles were confusing, the paths were drawn but without the points.
Now it draws the path faded to indicate that they are hidden/locked.
* Select tips/roots operators now have options to select/deselect/toggle/invert.
Partial redraw doesn't work so well with these, now I've changed the action
zones to just draw as part of regions instead of as a special overdraw done
at the end, which fits better with partial redraw by avoiding any special
exceptions.
After the paint refactoring for 2.67, the OpenGL texture was getting updated for
every stroke point, rather than once for every redraw. With a small brush radius
and low spacing the number of stroke points can be quite large, which might have
a big performance impact depending on the graphics card / drivers.
Also for 2D image paint, avoid redrawing the button panels and properties editor
during painting.
There is another possible cause for slowdowns with 3D texture painting which was
not fixed. Projection painting is creating and destroying threads for every stroke
point. Depending on the CPU/OS there might be a lot of overhead in doing that if
the brush size is small.
down, this time by the operator properties getting converted to a string for
display in the info window.
With 1000+ stroke points this can get slow, and takes up too much space anyway,
so now it's (somewhat arbitrarily) limited to printing only 10 points.
Allowing any-key modifiers to work is cool, but this needs more work.
My previous fix made overlapping key presses (where you release key 1
just after pressing key 2) to not register as valid shortcuts.
window, the game would stop drawing in the first and mess up the OpenGL state of
the second.
Also fixes glPushAttrib/glPopAttrib getting out of sync in some cases.
Tiny tweak in "Any key modifier" code. It now refuses to accept events when you hold
any key, and then press another key - unless that has key-modifier set.
This enables Houdini style "Hold Spacebar - Leftmouse" view moves.
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.
To achieve this, some code (callbacks and search button creation) was moved from wm_operators.c to interface/interface.c, and a new UI function was added, uiDefSearchButO_ptr.
Note: This new code uses the fact that uiButHandleFunc callbacks get executed before operator when one of its arg is the button itself!
Many thanks to Campbell who helped me a lot with this patch!
Cleanup: also removed two unused pointers from uiBut struct.
render of objects could slow things down when redrawing the view each time a new
sample is displayed.
Now it does a partial redraw of the viewport with only the render border area,
skipping OpenGL object drawing while the render is refining.
The feature "Keep Session" was also loading that session when you double-click
on a .blend to open it, or when a .blend file was on commandline.
Moved this feature to the main() in creator.c, so it can check on it properly, skipping the
kept session when a file was loaded.
* Fix precision overflow issue with overlay previews,
* Expose alpha mask mapping to UI (still not functional but coming soon).
* More overlay refactoring:
Overlay now does minimal checking for texture refresh.
Instead, we now have invalidation flags to set an aspect of the brush
overlay as invalid. This is necessary because this way we will be able to
separate and preview different brush attributes on the overlays, using
different textures:
These attributes/aspects are:
Primary texture (main texture for sculpt, vertex, imapaint)
Secondary texture (mask/alpha texture for imapaint)
Cursor texture (cursor texture. It involves brush strength and curves)
Modified the relevant RNA property update functions and C update callback
functions to call the relevant cursor invalidation functions instead
of checking every frame for multiple properties.
Properties that affect this are:
Image changes, if image is used by current brush,
Texture slot changes, similarly
Curve changes,
Object mode change invalidates the cursor
Paint tool change invalidates the cursor.
These changes give slightly more invalidation cases than simply
comparing the relevant properties each frame, but these do not occur in
performance critical moments and it's a much more elegant system than
adding more variables to check per frame each time we add something on
the system.
- GLSL shader wasn't aware of alpha predivide option,
always assuming alpha is straight. Gave wrong results
when displaying transparent float buffers.
- GLSL display wasn't aware of float buffers with number
of channels different from 4, crashing when trying to
display image with different number of channels.
This required a bit larger changes, namely now it's
possible to pass format (GL_RGB, GL_RGBAm GL_LUMINANCE)
to glaDrawPixelsTex, This also implied adding format to
glaDrawPixelsAuto and modifying all places where this
functions are called.
Now GLSL will handle both 3 and 4 channels buffers,
single channel images are handled by CPU.
- Replaced hack for render result displaying with a bit
different hack.
Namely CPU conversion will happen only during render,
once render is done GLSL would be used for displaying
render result on a screen.
This is so because of the way renderer updates parts
of the image -- it happens without respect to active
render layer in image user. This is harmless because
only display buffer is modifying, but this is tricky
because we don't have original buffer opened during
rendering.
One more related fix here was about when rendering
multiple layers, wrong image would be displaying when
rendering is done. Added a signal to invalidate
display buffer once rendering is done (only happens
when using multiple layers). This solves issue with
wrong buffer stuck on the display when using regular
CPU display space transform and if GLSL is available
it'll make image displayed with a GLSL shader.
- As an additional change, byte buffers now also uses
GLSL display transform.
So now only dutehr and RGB curves are stoppers for
using GLSL for all kind of display transforms.
- pass string size to BLI_timestr() to avoid possible buffer overrun.
- quiet warning for mingw.
- include guards for windows utf conversion funcs.
- fix for mistage in edge-angle-selection check.
- some style cleanup.
