For some we may add per object overrides, but for most we plan to keep them
strictly per viewport settings. Display settings from the mesh still need to
be moved here, only collections were done to remove that code.
Initial review of the shard shadows in the workbench engine.
Speed optimizations like transform feedback are not implemented yet. I first want this part to be reviewed and merged.
@fclem please check the note in drw_stencil_set it was holding back nequal == 0 as by default DST.stencil_mask was set to 0. questioin is should we remove the whole check or not.
Also I am still looking for a better name (or split the enum) for DRW_STATE_STENCIL_DEPTH_FAIL_INCR_DECR_WRAP

- ability to switch between Single Color, Object Color, Material Color
and Random Color
- fixed Shading and Lighting popover
- Renamed Solid -> Single Color
Both the scene and workspace had an active view layer, and it was confusing
which settings were being used or displayed where. Now we always have one,
so there is no mismatch.
The "View Layers" tab in the properties editor is now "View Layer", no longer
showing a list of layers. Instead view layers can be added and removed with
the workspace view layer selector. They are also listed and selectable in the
outliner.
Single layer rendering uses the active view layer from the workspace.
This fixes bugs where the wrong active view layer was used, but more places
remain that are wrong and are now using the first view layer in the scene.
These are all marked with BKE_view_layer_context_active_PLACEHOLDER.
Use render settings and active view layer will be handled elsewhere.
Also change icon to not be confusing with render layers.
Probably we should get rid of the workspace tab entirely and do it in
the user preferences, but that's for later.
Added Object Overlap Overlay
- Added R32UI support to GPU_framebuffer
- Added R32U support to draw manager
- The overlay mode has a object data pass that will render 'needed' data to specific buffers so we can mix them together via a deferred rendering. In future will also add UV's and other data
- Overlap is implemented as an overlay so it could be used on top of the Scene lighted Solid mode (that will be rendered by Eevee.

* "Scenes" now shows for each scene lists of all view layers, collections and
objects contained in it. This is the place to see all collections and objects
in the scene even if they are not used in any view layer. Objects are nested
according to parenting here.
* "Collections" now shows all collections in the view layer, and the objects
in those collections. Objects are not nested by parenting, only collections
since it would be too confusing if the children are in a different collection.
* "Groups" is unchanged.
* "View Layer" was removed, replaced by "Collections".
Part of T54790.
This commit removes all references to the old timeline editor.
Unfortuantely, the removal of the Timeline spacetype defining
functions has ended up breaking the version patching code I'd
been working on earlier (as now, the editor gets marked as
"unknown/info" before we get a chance to patch it!)
These now live in the action editor/dopesheet related files.
Apart from these, the timeline didn't actually have other settings
of its own that were of any interest to anyone.
For many years, animators have been requesting the ability to edit keyframes in the
timeline. However, implementing such tools in the timeline quickly becomes a slippery
slope, where we'll eventually end up having to duplicate all the functionality from the
dopesheet editor.
Discussing with William and Pablo this morning, we realised that perhaps it might be possible
to just make the Timeline a mode of the Dopesheet Editor (and kill off the old standalone
Timeline), meaning that we essentially get all the Dopesheet Editor goodness for free!
Also, with some proposed UI updates (i.e. allowing "submodes" of editors to be part of the
the main editors selector), it might not even matter that there isn't an "actual" timeline
editor anymore.
This commit implements the following changes (which are actually sufficient for supporting
most basic workflows):
* Timeline mode in Dopesheet Editor
* Tweaks to UI code to make the Timeline header/menus show up in Dopesheet editor
TODO:
* Hide channels list when switching to timeline mode
* Port over cache-file indicators
* Add missing timeline-only settings that need a new home in the dopesheet
* Go through fixing all timeline editor operators (e.g. Bind to camera)
* Port over start/end frame shading (and adjust preview range rendering to make the
distinction between these clear)
* Remove old timeline editor, and transfer over any leftover code
== Main Features/Changes for Users
* Add horizontal bar at top of all non-temp windows, consisting out of two horizontal sub-bars.
* Upper sub-bar contains global menus (File, Render, etc.), tabs for workspaces and scene selector.
* Lower sub-bar contains object mode selector, screen-layout and render-layer selector. Later operator and/or tool settings will be placed here.
* Individual sections of the topbar are individually scrollable.
* Workspace tabs can be double- or ctrl-clicked for renaming and contain 'x' icon for deleting.
* Top-bar should scale nicely with DPI.
* The lower half of the top-bar can be hided by dragging the lower top-bar edge up. Better hiding options are planned (e.g. hide in fullscreen modes).
* Info editors at the top of the window and using the full window width with be replaced by the top-bar.
* In fullscreen modes, no more info editor is added on top, the top-bar replaces it.
== Technical Features/Changes
* Adds initial support for global areas
A global area is part of the window, not part of the regular screen-layout.
I've added a macro iterator to iterate over both, global and screen-layout level areas. When iterating over areas, from now on developers should always consider if they have to include global areas.
* Adds a TOPBAR editor type
The editor type is hidden in the UI editor type menu.
* Adds a variation of the ID template to display IDs as tab buttons (template_ID_tabs in BPY)
* Does various changes to RNA button creation code to improve their appearance in the horizontal top-bar.
* Adds support for dynamically sized regions. That is, regions that scale automatically to the layout bounds.
The code for this is currently a big hack (it's based on drawing the UI multiple times). This should definitely be improved.
* Adds a template for displaying operator properties optimized for the top-bar. This will probably change a lot still and is in fact disabled in code.
Since the final top-bar design depends a lot on other 2.8 designs (mainly tool-system and workspaces), we decided to not show the operator or tool settings in the top-bar for now. That means most of the lower sub-bar is empty for the time being.
NOTE: Top-bar or global area data is not written to files or SDNA. They are simply added to the window when opening Blender or reading a file. This allows us doing changes to the top-bar without having to care for compatibility.
== ToDo's
It's a bit hard to predict all the ToDo's here are the known main ones:
* Add options for the new active-tool system and for operator redo to the topbar.
* Automatically hide the top-bar in fullscreen modes.
* General visual polish.
* Top-bar drag & drop support (WIP in temp-tab_drag_drop).
* Improve dynamic regions (should also fix some layout glitches).
* Make internal terminology consistent.
* Enable topbar file writing once design is more advanced.
* Address TODO's and XXX's in code :)
Thanks @brecht for the review! And @sergey for the complaining ;)

- need a draw mode in workbench engine.
- reorganized render engine retrieval in 3d view. There are 2 places
where this happenes 1. 3d view draw code and 2. draw manager.
the draw manager code is not used for external engines, currently added
an exception in for cycles. will need to have a better solution in
place.
issue was the factoring of the workspace engine that was removed. the logic implied that the clay could not be rendered as clay will be a draw mode we placed it already there so it is accessible in any engine. Should eventually fix the clay engine by migrating it to the workbench engine.
Implemented the face orientation overlay for testing.
Overlay mode is only drawn when there are overlays to be rendered.
The overlay mode is rendered before the object mode.
Brecht authored this commit, but he gave me the honours to actually
do it. Here it goes; Blender Internal. Bye bye, you did great!
* Point density, voxel data, ocean, environment map textures were removed,
as these only worked within BI rendering. Note that the ocean modifier
and the Cycles point density shader node continue to work.
* Dynamic paint using material shading was removed, as this only worked
with BI. If we ever wanted to support this again probably it should go
through the baking API.
* GPU shader export through the Python API was removed. This only worked
for the old BI GLSL shaders, which no longer exists. Doing something
similar for Eevee would be significantly more complicated because it
uses a lot of multiplass rendering and logic outside the shader, it's
probably impractical.
* Collada material import / export code is mostly gone, as it only worked
for BI materials. We need to add Cycles / Eevee material support at some
point.
* The mesh noise operator was removed since it only worked with BI
material texture slots. A displacement modifier can be used instead.
* The delete texture paint slot operator was removed since it only worked
for BI material texture slots. Could be added back with node support.
* Not all legacy viewport features are supported in the new viewport, but
their code was removed. If we need to bring anything back we can look at
older git revisions.
* There is some legacy viewport code that I could not remove yet, and some
that I probably missed.
* Shader node execution code was left mostly intact, even though it is not
used anywhere now. We may eventually use this to replace the texture
nodes with Cycles / Eevee shader nodes.
* The Cycles Bake panel now includes settings for baking multires normal
and displacement maps. The underlying code needs to be merged properly,
and we plan to add back support for multires AO baking and add support
to Cycles baking for features like vertex color, displacement, and other
missing baking features.
* This commit removes DNA and the Python API for BI material, lamp, world
and scene settings. This breaks a lot of addons.
* There is more DNA that can be removed or renamed, where Cycles or Eevee
are reusing some old BI properties but the names are not really correct
anymore.
* Texture slots for materials, lamps and world were removed. They remain
for brushes, particles and freestyle linestyles.
* 'BLENDER_RENDER' remains in the COMPAT_ENGINES of UI panels. Cycles and
other renderers use this to find all panels to show, minus a few panels
that they have their own replacement for.
Will be part of the collection manager where per collection the
ob->col can be set. This currently depends on DepsGraph +
CollectionManager.
I removed it for now so the code won't influence development
- added `object_color_type` where the user can set if the collection
determines the color, or the object will be used for the color.
Implemented it as an enum as later this can have a random color option.
- moved OB_LIGHTING_* to DNA_view3d_types and renamed it.
- Fixed some DRY in workbench_materials.c. Can remove more DRY's but
will need to discuss the responsibility of the workbench engine as it
might become part of the eevee renderer.
ViewRender was removed, which means we can't get the render engine for files
saved in 2.8. We assume that any files saved in 2.8 were intended to use Eevee
and set the engine to that.
A fix included with this is that .blend thumbails now draw with Clay mode,
and never Eevee or Cycles. These were drawn with solid mode in 2.7, and should
be very fast and not e.g. load heavy image textures.
Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D3156
Assume files saved in 2.8 were intended for Eevee and set them to material
viewport shading. In Eevee this is equal to rendered draw mode, in Cycles
this will draw with Eevee. This way Eevee demo files still show something
interesting when opened.
- added the drawtype_solid, drawtype_wireframe, drawtype_texture to
View3D
- enabled workbench panels for important render engines
- merged workbench_materials to solid_flat_mode. All draw modes will get
its own fast implementation in the workbench
Folders removed entirely:
* //extern/recastnavigation
* //intern/decklink
* //intern/moto
* //source/blender/editors/space_logic
* //source/blenderplayer
* //source/gameengine
This includes DNA data and any reference to the BGE code in Blender itself.
We are bumping the subversion.
Pending tasks:
* Tile/clamp code in image editor draw code.
* Viewport drawing code (so much of this will go away because of BI removal
that we can wait until then to remove this.
The list of editor-types is rather long by now, so better to arrange them into
sections.

- Read-only access can often use EvaluationContext.object_mode
- Write access to go to WorkSpace.object_mode.
- Some TODO's remain (marked as "TODO/OBMODE")
- Add-ons will need updating
(context.active_object.mode -> context.workspace.object_mode)
- There will be small/medium issues that still need resolving
this does work on a basic level though.
