Specifically, it should always use the position of the custom handle
bone head, even when affecting the handle at the tail of the main bone,
and shouldn't apply the special handling for joining two B-Bones.
This handle type was unusably broken before a bug fix included in
recent changes, so it should be safe to break backward compatibility.
The rest shape of B-Bones is actually affected by custom handles or
the default connected parent/child mechanism. Ignoring these effects
thus leads to the edit mode shape being different from the actual
rest pose.
This splits the b_bone_spline_setup function that is used to compute
the correct rest and pose shape from pose channels into two parts,
and applies the data structure independent half to edit mode.
In order to access the custom handle settings in Edit Mode, they are
moved to Bone and EditBone, while the bPoseChannel fields are downgraded
in status to a cache for performance. Also, instead of flags, introduce
an enum to specify the handle operation modes, so that new ones could
be added later.

Previously it was calling `BKE_pose_rebuild()`, such thing shall never
be called from drawing code! Hopefully this now works as expected and
that horrible hack is not needed anymore.
`BKE_pose_rebuild()` should (ideally) always trigger a rebuild of the
depsgraph, since it can add or remove posechannels.
This function now takes a Main parameter to ensure that related
depsgraphes are tagged as dirty (kept it optional, for some corner cases).
We should also probably double-check calls to that function, think in
theory it should only be called from depsgraph itself? But for now...
Only show hierarchy relationship lines when bone or its parent is selected.
This cuts down the clutter visible in general when relationship lines are
enabled (currently they can't be disabled), which should make it more useful
to keep them on (e.g. constraint lines/hints can still be drawn this way).
Previously, the "layers_used" value was getting updated by the drawing code.
However, when using copy on write, the drawing code gets evaluated copies of
the armature data instead of the original data, so any updates here fail to
get flushed to the original data, hence the lack of updates in the UI.
Fixed by moving the calculation to RNA when setting bone layers, as it should
have been done originally. (The one downside to this is if we set individual
layer memberships one by one - this could be slower as the recalc would have to
happen each time this changes).
The actual code is a bit convoluted but allows good and "pseudo efficient"
drawing. (pseudo efficient because rendering instances with that amount of
vertices is really inneficient. We should go full procedural but need to
have bufferTexture implemented first) But drawing speed is not a bottleneck
here and it's already a million time less crappy than the old (2.79) immediate
mode method.
Instead of drawing actual wires with different width we render a triangle
fan batch (containing 3 fans: bone, head, tail) which is then oriented in
screen space to the bone direction. We then interpolate a float value
accross vertices giving us a nice blend factor to blend the colors and
gives us really smooth interpolation inside the bone.
The outside edge still being geometry will be antialiased by MSAA if enabled.
In object mode, the axes are drawn like any other wire objects with
depth test and depth write. Thus enabling MSAA to work but not their xray
behaviour.
In edit armature/pose mode, draw smooth line without depth testing. This
produces wrong draw ordering problem but still gives the desired xray
behaviour. We do it outside of the MSAA pass since the xray behaviour is not
compatible with it. But we are drawing smoothed lines so no need for MSAA.
The lines are 2px thick and improve readability.
Now the axes are displayed correctly at the tip of the bone and with the
axes names.
I've made some modifications though:
- Axes are colored. (should not be in object mode but that's TODO)
- Axes ends are not flat arrows anymore. Replaced with a small diamond.
- Axes names are now scale by their respective axes instead of being
affected by other axes.
- Changed axes names "font" to be a bit more sexy.
This makes a few changes:
- Remove the old "overlay" wires.
- Add constraints colors to bones.
- Specify a a new "hint" color per bone. Making selection/Active state
more obvious.
- Unify Octahedral/B-Bones/Envelope shading and colors.
- Change outline size depending on the selection/active state of the bone.
Note that thoses changes are not final and needs review.
This will enable us to do more nice stuff in future commits.
This commit is a temporary commit, it will compile but will crash if
trying to display any armature. Next commit does work.
The actual weighting calculation is not smooth as the bone display.
The bone itself can be smooth for esthetic purpose but the distance display
should match the underlying weighting formula.
Past shader was too slow and had bad artifacts. This method is much simpler
and eficient and only exhibit some popping when the raidus of the head/tail
is changed.
We now use a more pleasant and efficient way to display enveloppe bones
and their radius.
For this we use a capsule geometry that is displaced (in the vertex shader)
to a signed distance field that represents the bone shape.
The bone distance radius are now drawn in 3D using a "pseudo-fresnel" effect.
This gives a better understanding of what is inside the radius of influence.
When capsules are not needed, we switch to default raytraced points.
The capsules are not distorded by the bone's matrix (same as their actual
influence radius) and are correctly displayed even with complex scaled
parents hierarchy.
Here is how it works:
We render a high poly disc that we orient & scale towards the camera so that
it covers the same pixel of the sphere it's supposed to represent.
Then the pixel shader raytrace the sphere (effectively starting from
the poly disc depth) and outputs the depth to gl_FragDepth.
This approach has many benefit:
- high quality obviously: per pixel accurate depth!
- compatible with MSAA: since the sphere horizon is delimited by polygons,
we get the coverage computed by the rasterizer. However we still gets
aliasing if the sphere intersect directly other meshes.
- virtually no overdraw: there is no backface to shade but we still get
overdraw because by little triangle [gpus rasterize pixel by groups of 4].
- allows early depth test: since the poly disc is set at the nearest depth
we can output, we can use GL_ARB_conservative_depth to enable early depth
test and discard pixels that are already behind geometry.
- can draw outline pretty easily without geometry shader.
This fix the issue with the zfighting we were getting at bones edges.
Moreover, this enables us to render arbitrarly large outline with
varying thickness.
This adds initial multi-object editing support.
- Selected objects are used when entering edit & pose modes.
- Selection & tools work on all objects however many tools need porting
