This patch adds an output field to the Attribute Proximity node and
renames the existing string socket from "Result" to "Distance".
- The "Distance" output contains distance to the closest position
on the Target geometry.
- The new "Location" output contains the coordinates of the closest
position on the Target geometry.
A basic use case for this data is a simple shrinkwrap operation.

This patch adds manifest parsing to Cryptomatte. Normally when loading
cryptomatte layer from an OpenEXR file the manifest contains data to
convert a hash to its original name of the object/material. In the
future we want to use this to support lookup of cryptomatte
hashes and show it to the user.
Currently this logic isn't available to users (for now), but is required
by D3959 where a new cryptomatte workflow is implemented.
When a lot of libraries or linked IDs were missing/not found when
loading a .blend file, Blender used to show one warning report for each
missing item, potentially covering the user's screen with a giant
unuable popup.
Now it will instead generate a single warning with amount of missing lib
files and linked IDs. Each missing item is still reported individually,
but only as `INFO`, so it will still show up in the console or Info editor.
`object_in_any_collection` used during linking/appending to check
whether an object is already instanced by at least one collection, was
not taking into account embedded master collections from scenes.
Following with the changes included to interpolate strokes of different number of points, a full review has been done in the interpolation tools.
* Interpolate now is a tool and not an operator. It was not logic to have this tool as a button.
* Interpolate tool parameters have been moved to topbar.
* Interpolate popover has been removed from topbar and interpolate `Sequence` operator has been moved to grease pencil menu.
* Interpolate Sequence now include a Redo panel.
* Interpolate tool now allows to select the strokes by pairs. This allows to interpolate any stroke with any stroke and not as before that it was only possible by drawing order. If no stroke is selected, the interpolation is done as before.
* Now is possible interpolate again if a previous keyframe exist. Before, it was impossible to interpolate two times in same frame and this made impossible to do the interpolation by groups of frames.
* New automatic option to `Flip strokes` if the stroke and end are not in the right position. Also the flip can be set manually for corner cases.
* Cleanup of menus related to interpolate.
* Fixed some bugs and removed parameters from scene because now all are tool or operator contained.
* Some code cleanup and function renames.
This commit also includes the some codebase to future implementation of the concept `Vertex Active` that now does not exist in grease pencil.
This patch implements the list panel system D7490 for FCurve modifiers.
The UI layouts are updated to make use of subpanels and to be consistent
with the rest of the interface, and easier to understand.
See the differential revision for screenshots.
This commit also significantly cleans up the FModifier UI code, and
improves, mainly by replacing the old button creation code is with
the newer interface API using RNA. In turn there is a bit of complexity
added because each FModifier has a separate panel.
Although reordering of FModifiers was not implemented before, we get
drag and drop basically for free here, so it is also included.
As noted in some older to do tasks, FModifiers aren't evaluated
in perfect order, which may be a point of improvement for the future.

This is a complete refactor over the old system. The goal was to increase quality
first and then have something more flexible and optimised.
|{F9603145} | {F9603142}|{F9603147}|
This fixes issues we had with the old system which were:
- Too much overdraw (low performance).
- Not enough precision in render targets (hugly color banding/drifting).
- Poor resolution near in-focus regions.
- Wrong support of orthographic views.
- Missing alpha support in viewport.
- Missing bokeh shape inversion on foreground field.
- Issues on some GPUs. (see T72489) (But I'm sure this one will have other issues as well heh...)
- Fix T81092
I chose Unreal's Diaphragm DOF as a reference / goal implementation.
It is well described in the presentation "A Life of a Bokeh" by Guillaume Abadie.
You can check about it here https://epicgames.ent.box.com/s/s86j70iamxvsuu6j35pilypficznec04
Along side the main implementation we provide a way to increase the quality by jittering the
camera position for each sample (the ones specified under the Sampling tab).
The jittering is dividing the actual post processing dof radius so that it fills the undersampling.
The user can still add more overblur to have a noiseless image, but reducing bokeh shape sharpness.
Effect of overblur (left without, right with):
| {F9603122} | {F9603123}|
The actual implementation differs a bit:
- Foreground gather implementation uses the same "ring binning" accumulator as background
but uses a custom occlusion method. This gives the problem of inflating the foreground elements
when they are over background or in-focus regions.
This is was a hard decision but this was preferable to the other method that was giving poor
opacity masks for foreground and had other more noticeable issues. Do note it is possible
to improve this part in the future if a better alternative is found.
- Use occlusion texture for foreground. Presentation says it wasn't really needed for them.
- The TAA stabilisation pass is replace by a simple neighborhood clamping at the reduce copy
stage for simplicity.
- We don't do a brute-force in-focus separate gather pass. Instead we just do the brute force
pass during resolve. Using the separate pass could be a future optimization if needed but
might give less precise results.
- We don't use compute shaders at all so shader branching might not be optimal. But performance
is still way better than our previous implementation.
- We mainly rely on density change to fix all undersampling issues even for foreground (which
is something the reference implementation is not doing strangely).
Remaining issues (not considered blocking for me):
- Slight defocus stability: Due to slight defocus bruteforce gather using the bare scene color,
highlights are dilated and make convergence quite slow or imposible when using jittered DOF
(or gives )
- ~~Slight defocus inflating: There seems to be a 1px inflation discontinuity of the slight focus
convolution compared to the half resolution. This is not really noticeable if using jittered
camera.~~ Fixed
- Foreground occlusion approximation is a bit glitchy and gives incorrect result if the
a defocus foreground element overlaps a farther foreground element. Note that this is easily
mitigated using the jittered camera position.
|{F9603114}|{F9603115}|{F9603116}|
- Foreground is inflating, not revealing background. However this avoids some other bugs too
as discussed previously. Also mitigated with jittered camera position.
|{F9603130}|{F9603129}|
- Sensor vertical fit is still broken (does not match cycles).
- Scattred bokeh shapes can be a bit strange at polygon vertices. This is due to the distance field
stored in the Bokeh LUT which is not rounded at the edges. This is barely noticeable if the
shape does not rotate.
- ~~Sampling pattern of the jittered camera position is suboptimal. Could try something like hammersley
or poisson disc distribution.~~Used hexaweb sampling pattern which is not random but has better
stability and overall coverage.
- Very large bokeh (> 300 px) can exhibit undersampling artifact in gather pass and quite a bit of
bleeding. But at this size it is preferable to use jittered camera position.
Codewise the changes are pretty much self contained and each pass are well documented.
However the whole pipeline is quite complex to understand from bird's-eye view.
Notes:
- There is the possibility of using arbitrary bokeh texture with this implementation.
However implementation is a bit involved.
- Gathering max sample count is hardcoded to avoid to deal with shader variations. The actual
max sample count is already quite high but samples are not evenly distributed due to the
ring binning method.
- While this implementation does not need 32bit/channel textures to render correctly it does use
many other textures so actual VRAM usage is higher than previous method for viewport but less
for render. Textures are reused to avoid many allocations.
- Bokeh LUT computation is fast and done for each redraw because it can be animated. Also the
texture can be shared with other viewport with different camera settings.
This commit adds a drop-down to the attribute randomize node to support
a few operations on the values of existing attributes: "Replace/Create"
(the existing behavior), "Add", "Subtract", and "Multiply".
At this point, the operations are limited by what is simple to implement.
More could be added in the future, but there isn't a strong use case
for more complex operations anyway, and a second math node can be used.

Currently the size is limited by the user preference texture size limit.
An image user can set the `IMA_SHOW_MAX_RESOLUTION` flag to request

set the gpu texture is limited by the user preference setting.
When the gl resolution limit is disabled the GPU texture is always
created for the max supported resolution.

Essentially, `lib_link_all` would perform some post-processing over data
in given `bmain` that **may** fail when not all data from all libraries
has been properly loaded yet.
This happens when `lib_link_all` is called from `read_libraries`, where
the bmains are split by libraries.
Now those post-processing is put into its own utils function, which
asserts that it is only called on a merged bmain.
Bonus point, this will avoid re-runing those not-so-cheap operations
more than once on the same data.
Reproducible in r1442 of Sprite repository when opening
`pro/animation_test/rex/performance/rex_crowdcamping/rex_crowdcamping.lighting.blend`
NOTE: Not so sure why we have to call `lib_link_all` several times (once
for each library, and then once on the whole merged bmain, including
local IDs then). So that it can get called for libs while we still have
that specific .blend file handle around?
In any case, the overhead here is minimal since we do ensure a data-block is
never lib-linked more than once, so this is not a serious concern right now.

We will need to expand this node soon to add weight/count for different

This is done in agreement with Dalai.
By design the modified object transformations should still work and
affect the geometry nodes results. The current behaviour, however, would
make the geometry from the object info to not be affected by the
modified object transformations. This patch changes that by default.
In a similar fashion the Location, Rotation and Scale sockets outputs
should be aware of whether the output should be in the global space or in the
space of the nodetree.
To solve this, the patch introduces a new transformation space "enum"
where users can pick "Original" or "Relative" space.
Original
--------
Output the geometry relative to the input object transform, and the
location, rotation and scale relative to the world origin.
Relative
--------
Bring the input object geometry, location, rotation and scale into the
modified object maintaining the relative position between the two objects in
the scene.
Relative space violates a bit the design of the nodetree. The geometry in this
case is transformed so that moving the modified object doesn't interfere with
the geometry. This is particularly useful for the boolean node for instance.
"Original" is the default space, but old files are set to "Relative" for
backwards compatibility.
