This feature is useful for many production scenarios as it allows for the
creation of separate render passes with specific worlds. This would help
workflows that require different skies or other backgrounds for compositing.

Visually it is the same as the execution time implemented for the
geometry nodes, and it is to be enabled in the overlay popover.
The implementation is separate from the geometry nodes, as it is
not easy or practical to re-use the geometry nodes implementation.
The execution time is stored in a run-time hash, indexed by a node
instance key. This is similar to the storage of the mode preview
images, but is stored on the scene runtime data and not on the node
tree. Indexing the storage by key allows to easily copy execution
statistics from localized tree to its original version.
The time is only implemented for full-frame compositor, as for the
tiled compositor it could be tricky to calculate reliable time for
pixel processing nodes which process one pixel at a time.

This implements layer parenting and layer transforms.
* Adds a new "Transform" panel in the object-data properties with the (local) translation, rotation and scale.
* Adds a new "Relations" panel with the parent property (and also bone name in case the parent is an armature).
* When converting from GPv2 to GPv3, the parent and transforms are converted too.
* Bone names are updated if they are renamed in the armature.
Implementation details:
* The positions in the drawings are always in layer space. During extraction, we transform the positions to object space. Note that this could be optimized further and done in the render engine itself.
* This means that e.g. the selection code (which needs to know where the positions are on screen) now takes this transform into account.
* The layer transform is calculated when accessed (from the location, rotation, scale properties).
* Code that needs to know where the positions are on screen now takes this new transform into account.

When moving keys in the Graph Editor animators
usually only want to move them on one axis.
While this is possible in a few ways (G+X, or G + Middle Mouse Button click),
we could default the behavior to always lock on an axis.
This was suggested by Dreamworks animators during the
Animation & Rigging module meeting.
https://devtalk.blender.org/t/2024-01-26-animation-rigging-module-meeting/33081#patch-review-decision-time-5
This PR adds an option with which the movement is
always locked to a single axis by default.
The option can be found in the Graph Editor under "View->Auto-Lock Axis".
The movement will then be restricted to the axis along
which you've moved the cursor the most.
You can still manually override the lock behavior by pressing `X` or `Y`.
I am piggybacking off the auto locking feature you get when pressing the middle mouse button.
When the new feature is enabled I call that at the start of the transformation.
Except when:
* only handles are selected
* the tweak mode has been started on a handle
This is to not snap handles, which is a behavior that has
been requested by the artists.

Animators (especially for film and TV) often need
to track the movement of things in screenspace.
At the end of the day, the pixel motion is what counts.
But motion paths were always in world space,
which made it hard to use when the camera
is also animated (during action scenes e.g.)
This PR introduces the feature of projecting a motion path into the screen space of the active scene camera.
Limitations
This makes the motion path only useful when looking through the active scene camera.
Switching the scene camera using markers is not yet supported.
Technical Implementation
This is achieved by baking the motion path points into the
camera space on creation. For every point calculated,
the camera is evaluated through the depsgraph and
the resulting world matrix is used.
Then I pass in the current frame's world matrix of the
camera into the shader to make sure the points follow it.
As can be seen in the video, it looks quite odd when
viewed at another angle but this is expected.
I mentioned that in the tooltip, so it shouldn't be an issue

Since 1497005054, there is a new `ModifierData.persistent_uid` which
has more use cases than the old `session_uid`. This patch removes
`ModifierData.session_uid` and replaces its usages with the new `persistent_uid`.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/117909
This adds a new `ModifierData.persistent_uid` integer property with the following properties:
* It's unique within the object.
* Match between the original and evaluated object.
* Stable across Blender sessions.
* Stable across renames and reorderings of modifiers.
Potential use-cases:
* Everywhere where we currently use the name as identifier. For example,
`ModifierComputeContext` and `ModifierViewerPathElem`.
* Can be used as part of a key in `IDCacheKey` to support caches that stay
in-tact across undo steps.
* Can be stored in the `SpaceNode` to identify the modifier whose geometry node
tree is currently pinned (this could use the name currently, but that hasn't been
implemented yet).
This new identifier has some overlap with `ModifierData.session_uid`, but there
are some differences:
* `session_uid` is unique within the entire Blender session (except for duplicates
between the original and evaluated data blocks).
* `session_uid` is not stable across Blender sessions.
Especially due to the first difference, it's not immediately obvious that the new
`persistent_uid` can fulfill all use-cases of the existing `session_uid`. Nevertheless,
this seems likely and will be cleaned up separately.
Unfortunately, there is not a single place where modifiers are added to objects currently.
Therefore, there are quite a few places that need to ensure valid identifiers. I tried to catch
all the places, but it's hard to be sure. Therefore, I added an assert in `object_copy_data`
that checks if all identifiers are valid. This way, we should be notified relatively quickly if
issues are caused by invalid identifiers.

Part of "improve filtering situation" (#116980), now strip scaling filter defaults to "Auto" which has logic like:
- No scale, no rotation, integer positions: Nearest (fastest)
- Scaling up by more than 2x: Cubic Mitchell, so you get nicer blending between pixels than with bilinear,
- Scaling down by more than 2x: Box, so that many pixels are averaged properly without too much aliasing,
- Otherwise: Bilinear
Existing strips that use Bilinear (which is default) get switched to Auto when loading older files.
All of this has an advantage that unless you have some special needs for your look, you can leave it at default and it will look decently good at either large up-scaling or large down-scaling, but not waste performance if you don't use any scaling at all. Previously none of the choices were good in "all cases": box (née subsampled3x3) only looks good when scaling down, cubic only looks good when scaling up, default bilinear leaves performance on the table when you don't use any scale/rotation, etc.
On something like Gold movie current edit, most of the strips effectively use Nearest now, except some that are translated into non-integer pixel positions; those stay effectively Bilinear.

With this patch, materials are kept intact in simulation zones and bake nodes
without any additional user action.
This implements the design proposed in #108410 to support referencing
data-blocks (only materials for now) in the baked data. The task also describes
why this is not a trivial issue. A previous attempt was implemented in #109703
but it didn't work well-enough.
The solution is to have an explicit `name (+ library name) -> data-block`
mapping that is stored in the modifier for each bake node and simulation zone.
The `library name` is necessary for it to be unique within a .blend file. Note
that this refers to the name of the `Library` data-block and not a file path.
The baked data only contains the names of the used data-blocks. When the baked
data is loaded, the correct material data-block is looked up from the mapping.
### Automatic Mapping Generation
The most tricky aspect of this approach is to make it feel mostly automatic.
From the user point-of-view, it should just work. Therefore, we don't want the
user to have to create the mapping manually in the majority of cases. Creating
the mapping automatically is difficult because the data-blocks that should
become part of the mapping are only known during depsgraph evaluation. So we
somehow have to gather the missing data blocks during evaluation and then write
the new mappings back to the original data.
While writing back to original data is something we do in some cases already,
the situation here is different, because we are actually creating new relations
between data-blocks. This also means that we'll have to do user-counting. Since
user counts in data-blocks are *not* atomic, we can't do that from multiple
threads at the same time. Also, under some circumstances, it may be necessary to
trigger depsgraph evaluation again after the write-back because it actually
affects the result.
To solve this, a small new API is added in `DEG_depsgraph_writeback_sync.hh`. It
allows gathering tasks which write back to original data in a synchronous way
which may also require a reevaluation.
### Accessing the Mapping
A new `BakeDataBlockMap` is passed to geometry nodes evaluation by the modifier.
This map allows getting the `ID` pointer that should be used for a specific
data-block name that is stored in baked data. It's also used to gather all the
missing data mappings during evaluation.
### Weak ID References
The baked/cached geometries may have references to other data-blocks (currently
only materials, but in the future also e.g. instanced objects/collections).
However, the pointers of these data-blocks are not stable over time. That is
especially true when storing/loading the data from disk, but also just when
playing back the animation. Therefore, the used data-blocks have to referenced
in a different way at run-time.
This is solved by adding `std::unique_ptr<bake::BakeMaterialsList>` to the
run-time data of various geometry data-blocks. If the data-block is cached over
a longer period of time (such that material pointers can't be used directly), it
stores the material name (+ library name) used by each material slot. When the
geometry is used again, the material pointers are restored using these weak name
references and the `BakeDataBlockMap`.
### Manual Mapping Management
There is a new `Data-Blocks` panel in the bake settings in the node editor
sidebar that allows inspecting and modifying the data-blocks that are used when
baking. The user can change what data-block a specific name is mapped to.

Adds vertex groups and basic operator support to the `GreasePencil` data
block.
Vertex groups in the `GreasePencil` ID are used as the source of truth
for vertex groups names and ordering in the UI. Individual drawings also
have vertex group lists, but they should not be modified directly by
users or the API. The main purpose of storing vertex group names in in a
drawing's `CurveGeometry` is to make it self-contained, so that vertex
weights can be associated with names without requiring the
`GreasePencil` parent data.
Vertex group operators are implemented generically for some ID types.
Grease Pencil needs its own handling in these operators. After
manipulating `vertex_group_names` the `validate_drawing_vertex_groups`
utility function should be called to ensure that drawings only contain a
true subset of the `GreasePencil` data block.
Operators for assigning/removing/selecting/deselecting vertices are also
implemented here. To avoid putting grease pencil logic into the generic
`object_deform.cc` file a number of utility functions have been added in
`BKE_grease_pencil_vgroup.hh`.

Part of overall "improve filtering situation" (#116980): replace Subsampled3x3
(added for blender 3.5 in f210842a72 et al.) strip scaling filter with a
general Box filter.
Subsampled3x3 is really a Box filter ("average pixel values over NxM region"),
hardcoded to 3x3 size. As such, it works pretty well when downscaling images by
3x on each axis. But starts to break down and introduce aliasing at other
scaling factors. Also when scaling up or scaling down by less than 3x, using
total of 9 samples is a bit of overkill and hurts performance.
So instead, calculate the amount of NxM samples needed by looking at scaling
factors on X/Y axes. Note: use at least 2 samples on each axis, so that when
rotation is present, the result edges will get some anti-aliasing, just like it
was happening in previous filter implementation.

This patch adds support for _Menu Switch_ nodes and enum definitions in
node trees more generally. The design is based on the outcome of the
[2022 Nodes Workshop](https://code.blender.org/2022/11/geometry-nodes-workshop-2022/#menu-switch).
The _Menu Switch_ node is an advanced version of the _Switch_ node which
has a customizable **menu input socket** instead of a simple boolean.
The _items_ of this menu are owned by the node itself. Each item has a
name and description and unique identifier that is used internally. A
menu _socket_ represents a concrete value out of the list of items.
To enable selection of an enum value for unconnected sockets the menu is
presented as a dropdown list like built-in enums. When the socket is
connected a shared pointer to the enum definition is propagated along
links and stored in socket default values. This allows node groups to
expose a menu from an internal menu switch as a parameter. The enum
definition is a runtime copy of the enum items in DNA that allows
sharing.
A menu socket can have multiple connections, which can lead to
ambiguity. If two or more different menu source nodes are connected to a
socket it gets marked as _undefined_. Any connection to an undefined
menu socket is invalid as a hint to users that there is a problem. A
warning/error is also shown on nodes with undefined menu sockets.
At runtime the value of a menu socket is the simple integer identifier.
This can also be a field in geometry nodes. The identifier is unique
within each enum definition, and it is persistent even when items are
added, removed, or changed. Changing the name of an item does not affect
the internal identifier, so users can rename enum items without breaking
existing input values. This also persists if, for example, a linked node
group is temporarily unavailable.

- `bone_collection.is_solo`: writable property to manage the solo flag.
- `armature.is_solo_active`: read-only property that is `True` when any

`UUID` generally stands for "universally unique identifier". The session identifier that
we use is neither universally unique, nor does it follow the standard. Therefor, the term
"session uuid" is confusing and should be replaced.
In #116888 we briefly talked about a better name and ended up with "session uid".
The reason for "uid" instead of "id" is that the latter is a very overloaded term in Blender
already.
This patch changes all uses of "uuid" to "uid" where it's used in the context of a
"session uid". It's not always trivial to see whether a specific mention of "uuid" refers
to an actual uuid or something else. Therefore, I might have missed some renames.
I can't think of an automated way to differentiate the case.
BMesh also uses the term "uuid" sometimes in a the wrong context (e.g. `UUIDFaceStepItem`)
but there it also does not mean "session uid", so it's *not* changed by this patch.

Splits the flag `..._FLAG_INSERTNEEDED` between autokey and
manual keying. The fact that this flag was shared between the two
systems has been the cause of issues in the past. It wouldn't
let you insert a keyframe even though you explicitly used an operator
to do so.
In order to be clearer what options are used where, the user preferences
have been reordered.
By default "Only Insert Needed" will be enabled for auto-keying, but not for manual keying.
The versioning code will enable both if it was enabled previously.
# Code side changes
The keying system has flags that define the behavior
when keys are inserted. Some of those flags were shared
between keying and auto-keying. Some were only used for
auto-keying.
To clarify that, prefix flags that used exclusively in one or the other
system with `AUTOKEY`/`MANUALKEY`
Also the flag name on the user preferences and the tool settings was renamed.
Previously it was called `autokey_flag`. To indicated that it is not only used
for autokeying, rename it `keying_flag`.

When using the MapUV node for certain NPR workflows (for example palette

Before this PR the keyframing code was aware of driver specifics

This is now changed so that the calling code needs to know where on the
FCurve the key should be inserted. This removes the need for the

It is very common for graphical editors with layers to support
locking individual layers to protect them from accidental edits due
to misclicks. Blender itself already supports locking vertex groups.
This adds lock toggles for shape keys, with lock/unlock all operators.
The flags are checked by sculpt brushes, edit mode transform tools,
and Smooth, Propagate and Blend From Shape operators. This selection
aims to cover operations that only deform the mesh, where the shape
key selection matters.
Topology changing operations always apply to all keys, and thus
incorrect shape key selection is less impactful. Excluding them
from the new feature greatly reduces the patch size.

For high radii Kuwahara, we use a Summed Area Table (SAT) implementation
to accelerate the classic variant of the algorithm. The problem is that
due to limited floating point precision, the SAT can produce artifacts
in its output.
An attempt to fix this was implemented in #114191, and while that patch
improved precision by 10x, the artifacts still existed, albeit less
noticeable. But since the improved precision also meant a performance
penalty, it was decided that the improvement is not worth it.
Since the artifacts are only noticeable for scenes with very high
values, this patch adds a High Precision option that defaults to false
and can be enabled by the user upon noticing any artifacts. The option
simply uses direction convolution instead of SAT in this case. The
downside, of course, is that it can be orders of magnitude slower.
An alternative to using this option is for the user to clamp the input
or downsample the image. Both methods should be documented in the
documentation.

Opacity modifier implementation based on GP2.
Functionality is largely unchanged.
_Color Mode_ is either `Stroke` or `Fill` for modifying color opacity or
`Hardness`.
_Uniform Opacity_ does two things at once (!):
- Sets the same opacity value for every point in a stroke.
- Sets opacity as an absolute value rather than a factor.
_Weight as Factor_ (button to the right of Opacity Factor): Use the
vertex group as opacity __factor__ rather than an overall __influence__.
This is confusing and hard to convey, but copies behavior from GP2.
The _Influence_ panel contains the same filter settings as the GP2
modifier, with some small changes:
- _Layer_ selects only strokes in the respective layer (with an _Invert_
option)
- _Material_ selects only points with the respective material (with an
_Invert_ option)
- _Layer Pass_ and _Material Pass_ select only strokes/points which are
rendered in the respective pass.
_Note 1: Layers don't have UI for setting a pass yet, this will be a
generic layer attribute. This can be set through the API for testing._
_Note 2: In GP2 a pass value of zero was used to disable pass filters.
Since zero is a valid pass ID an explicit flag has been added for the
purpose of turning pass filters on and off._
- _Vertex Group_: This can be used as an additional influence filter on
points. If _Weight as Factor_ is enable the vertex group instead
replaces the opacity factor. In _Fill_ mode the vertex group weight of
the stroke's first point is used as influence for the entire stroke.
- _Custom Curve_ is another possible influence factor per point. The
curve input value is the relative position of a point along its
stroke.
The Influence settings have been moved into a separate DNA struct, which
should help with reusability in various modifiers. Various utility

Part of overall "improve filtering situation" (#116980) task:
* Add Bicubic filtering option to strip Transform "Filter" setting.
Previously this option only existed in Transform Effect "Interpolation"
setting.
- With this addition, it feels like the transform effect could
possibly be marked as legacy/deprecated, since the regular Transform
that is on all strips can do everything that Transform Effect did?
* Speed up bicubic filtering (used now in VSE, but also in CPU Compositor,
image paint, etc.) by slightly simplifying the code and using some SIMD.
Upscaling 96x54 image to 3840x2160 resolution, using Bicubic filtering:
- Windows (VS2022, Ryzen 5950X): 35.5ms -> 15.1ms
- Mac (clang 15, M1 Max): 29.6ms -> 24.4ms
* Add gtest coverage for bicubic functionality.

Translation of the UI is currently split into 3 preferences:
interface, tooltips, and new data. The distinction between interface
and tooltips is currently unclear as tooltips also include a lot of
messages not displayed in the actual tooltips on mouse hover.
These include reports to the Info Editor, information in editor
headers and footers, and statuses in panels.
In order to limit the use of `TIP_()` to actual tooltips, this commit
introduces a new preference for this extra information: "Reports".
New translation macros are introduced: `RPT_()` and `CTX_RPT_()`, as
well as their equivalent for the Python API, `pgettext_rpt_()`, to be
imported as `rpt_()`.

The struct `SpaceText_Runtime` already separates runtime data from
`SpaceText`, however it is still allocated inside `SpaceText`, read and
write file operations still copy this data, but is override on read.
This changes separate allocation of `SpaceText_Runtime` from
`SpaceText`.

This adds a Python API for layout panels that have been introduced in #113584.
Two new methods on `UILayout` are added:
* `.panel(idname, text="...", default_closed=False) -> Optional[UILayout]`
* `.panel_prop(owner, prop_name, text="...") -> Optional[UILayout]`
Both create a panel and return `None` if the panel is collapsed. The difference lies
in how the open-close-state is stored. The first method internally manages the
open-close-state based on the provided identifier. The second one allows for
providing a boolean property that stores whether the panel is open. This is useful
when creating a dynamic of panels and when it is difficult to create a unique idname.
For the `.panel(...)` method, a new internal map on `Panel` is created which keeps
track of all the panel states based on the idname. Currently, there is no mechanism
for freeing any elements once they have been added to the map. This is unlikely to
cause a problem anytime soon, but we might need some kind of garbage collection
in the future.

This cleanup changes the `layer` parameter in `get_drawing_at` and `get_editable_drawing_at` to a reference.
This makes it clear that the layer is required for this function.
Update the documentation of `CONSTRAINT_DISABLE` and `CONSTRAINT_OFF`
flags to clearly distinguish them from each other.
- `CONSTRAINT_OFF`: The eye icon in the interface. Managed by the user,
maybe indirectly via the animation system or drivers. Maps to both the
`mute` (positive) and `enabled` (negative) properties in RNA.
- `CONSTRAINT_DISABLE`: The red color in the interface that indicates
invalid settings. Set by Blender when a constraint is considered to be
invalid, for example a 'Copy Location' constraint without a target.
Maps to `is_valid` (negative) in RNA.
No functional changes.
Even though the brush rotation is computed as a 2D angle (based on the mouse
movement), it currently gets applied by rotating the projected X direction
around the the normal in 3D.
This patch ensures that rotation gets applied first, and only then does the
motion direction get projected into the tangent plane. A potential issue with
the current approach is that the random perturbations will also be applied in
2D, but this seems to be fine from discussions with @JulienKaspar and @Sergey.
Also, there was an error where the location should probably be converted *to*
world coordinates.
All these changes seem to fix the issue described in #116418.
I also noticed some minor "inconsistencies" with how the rotation is applied:
For curve strokes, the direction of the curve corresponded to the upward
direction of the brush. For view plane, area plane mapping and anchored strokes,
the mouse motion indicated the downward direction of the brush.
For compatibility, I tried my best to enforce the latter conventions throughout,
but I'm not so confident about oversights.

As discussed in #105407, it can be useful to support returning
a fallback value specified by the user instead of failing the driver
if a driver variable cannot resolve its RNA path. This especially
applies to context variables referencing custom properties, since
when the object with the driver is linked into another scene, the
custom property can easily not exist there.
This patch adds an optional fallback value setting to properties
based on RNA path (including ordinary Single Property variables
due to shared code and similarity). When enabled, RNA path lookup
failures (including invalid array index) cause the fallback value
to be used instead of marking the driver invalid.
A flag is added to track when this happens for UI use. It is
also exposed to python for lint type scripts.
When the fallback value is used, the input field containing
the property RNA path that failed to resolve is highlighted in red
(identically to the case without a fallback), and the driver
can be included in the With Errors filter of the Drivers editor.
However, the channel name is not underlined in red, because
the driver as a whole evaluates successfully.

- Improve the look of them, so they feel less like from year
1998 (more details and images in the PR).
- Some of the scopes got slightly faster in the process, others
stayed the same performance (details below).
- Remove VSE Scopes related data from SpaceSeq DNA, move it into
runtime instead.
The ability to adjust the "Backwire Opacity" was mistakenly removed in
version 2.93 (b365cc017a).
As this issue went unnoticed by most users, it appears reasonable to
completely remove this setting from the code.
By making this change, there is no longer a need to define a default

Bone collection visibility now respects their hierarchy.
A bone collection is only visible when it is marked as visible and all
its ancestors (so parents, greatparents, etc.) are visible. Root bone
collections have no ancestors by definition, and only consider their own
visibility.
The effective ancestors' visibility is stored on each bone collection,
in its `BONE_COLLECTION_ANCESTORS_VISIBLE` flag. This makes it possible
to determine the effective visibility from just the flags of the bone
collection itself.
The `BONE_COLLECTION_ANCESTORS_VISIBLE` flag is now stored, with the
other flags, in `BoneCollection::flags`. This means that it's stored in
DNA, even though it's derived data and should actually be stored in a
runtime struct. However, `BoneCollection` doesn't have any runtime
struct yet, and I don't feel that the introduction of this flag is a
good enough reason to introduce that just yet.

Along with the 4.1 libraries upgrade, we are bumping the clang-format
version from 8-12 to 17. This affects quite a few files.
If not already the case, you may consider pointing your IDE to the
clang-format binary bundled with the Blender precompiled libraries.
Make it possible to nest bone collections. The data structure on the
armature is still a flat array. It is organised as follows:
- Sibling collections (i.e. ones with the same parent) are stored
sequentially in the array.
- Each bone collection keep track of the number of children, and the
index of the first child.
- Root collections (i.e. ones without parent) are stored as the first
elements in the array.
- The number of root collections is stored on the Armature.
This commit also contains the following:
- Replaced the flat UIList of bone collections with a tree view.
- Updated the M/Shift+M operators (move/assign to collection) to work
with hierarchical bone collections.
- Updated RNA interface to expose only root collections at
`armature.collections`. All collections are available on
`armature.collections.all`, and children at `bonecollection.children`.
- Library override support. Only new roots + their subtrees can be added
via overrides.

There are some tragic design flaws with the Microsoft STL
implementation of `std::dequeue`. Unless we implement our
own similar data structure or use an implementation from
another library, the change isn't worth it.
This reverts commit b26cd6a4b9.
This reverts commit cc11ba33d9.
This reverts commit c929d75054.
This reverts commit bd3d5a750d.
Some common headers were including this. Separating the includes
will ideally lead to better conceptual separation between CustomData
and the attribute API too. Mostly the change is adding the file to
places where it was included indirectly before. But some code is
shuffled around to hopefully better places as well.
GSQueue dates back over 21 years, past the initial git commit. Nowadays
we generally prefer to use data structures from the C++ standard library
or our own C++ data structures. Previous commits replaced this container
with `std::queue` in a few areas. Now it is unused and can be removed.
This builds on top of f824476bd5 to show
panels in the geometry nodes modifier. It also changes the two existing panels
to use the new layout panels.
The open-close state of the panels is stored in the modifier itself. It contains a
mapping from panel id to the corresponding state flag.

Add a new normal mode called "Custom" which directly interpolates
a "custom_normal" attribute to the evaluated points for the final
normal. Extend the "Set Curve Normal" node with this mode and
give it the ability to set the custom normal value.
This is intentionally a very basic implementation of custom normals.
In particular, the storage is not rotation invariant. So the normals
are expected to be set procedurally at the end of the modifier stack.
On the other hand, it is very easy to understand and explain.

Each value is now out of the global namespace, so they can be shorter
and easier to read. Most of this commit just adds the necessary casting
and namespace specification. `enum class` can be forward declared since
it has a specified size. We will make use of that in the next commit.
This was added at the start of the project, as a way for the source
library to control what would be overridable by the user of the data
(production files).
The implementation never went beyond the experimental area, and only
exposed in the python API then. The idea has been superseeded by the
'cherry-pick' design, so there is no point in keeping this code any
longer.
Use the standard "elements_num" naming, and use the "corner" name rather
than the old "loop" name: `verts_num`, `edges_num`, and `corners_num`.
This matches the existing `faces_num` field which was already renamed.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/116350
Make the naming consistent with the recent change from "loop" to
"corner". Avoid the need for a special type for these triangles by
conveying the semantics in the naming instead.
- `looptris` -> `corner_tris`
- `lt` -> `tri` (or `corner_tri` when there is less context)
- `looptri_index` -> `tri_index` (or `corner_tri_index`)
- `lt->tri[0]` -> `tri[0]`
- `Span<MLoopTri>` -> `Span<int3>`
- `looptri_faces` -> `tri_faces` (or `corner_tri_faces`)
If we followed the naming pattern of "corner_verts" and "edge_verts"
exactly, we'd probably use "tri_corners" instead. But that sounds much
worse and less intuitive to me.
I've found that by using standard vector types for this sort of data,
the commonalities with other areas become much clearer, and code ends
up being naturally more data oriented. Besides that, the consistency
is nice, and we get to mostly remove use of `DNA_meshdata_types.h`.

Now it's possible to optionally show the attribute values as text. This can be enabled

This adds a new `Bake` node which allows saving and loading intermediate geometries.
Typical use cases we want address with this currently are:
* Bake some data for use with a render engine.
* Bake parts of the node tree explicitly for better performance.
For now, the format that is written to disk is not considered to be an import/export format.
It's not guaranteed that data written with one Blender version can be read by another
Blender version. For that it's better to use proper interchange formats. Better support for
those will be added eventually as well. We also plan an `Import Bake` node that allows
reading the blender-specific baked data independent of the Bake node and at different frames.
The baking works very similar to the baking in the simulation zone (UI and implementation
wise). Major differences are:
* The Bake node has a `Bake Still` and `Bake Animation` mode.
* The Bake node doesn't do automatic caching.
Implementation details:
* Refactored how we create the Python operators for moving socket items so that it also
makes sense for non-zones.
* The `ModifierCache` stores an independent map of `SimulationNodeCache` and
`BakeNodeCache`, but both share a common data structure for the actually baked data.
* For baking, the `Bake` node is added as a side-effect-node in the modifier. This will make
sure that the node is baked even if it's currently not connected to the output.
* Had to add a new `DEG_id_tag_update_for_side_effect_request` function that is used
during baking. It's necessary because I want to evaluate the object again even though none
of its inputs changed. The reevaluation is necessary to create the baked data. Using
`DEG_id_tag_update` technically works as well, but has the problem that it also uses the
`DEG_UPDATE_SOURCE_USER_EDIT` flag which (rightly) invalidates simulation caches
which shouldn't happen here.
* Slightly refactored the timeline drawing so that it can also show the baked ranges of
Bake nodes. It does not show anything for baked nodes with a in Still mode though.
* The bake operator is refactored to bake a list of `NodeBakeRequest` which makes the
code easier to follow compared to the previous nested
`ObjectBakeData > ModifierBakeData > NodeBakeData` data structure.
* The bake operators are disabled when the .blend file is not yet saved. This is technically
only necessary when the bake path depends on the .blend file path but seems ok to force
the user anyway (otherwise the bake path may be lost as well if it's set explicitly).
* The same operators are used to bake and delete single bakes in `Bake` nodes and
`Simulation Zones`. On top of that, there are separate operators of baking and deleting all
simulation bakes (those ignore bake nodes).
* The `Bake` node remembers which inputs have been fields and thus may be baked as attributes.
For that it uses an `Is Attribute` flag on the socket item. This is needed because the baked data
may still contain attribute data, even if the inputs to the bake node are disconnected.
* Similar to simulation zones, the behavior of `Bake` nodes is passed into the geometry nodes
evaluation from the outside (from the modifier only currently). This is done by providing the
new `GeoNodesBakeParams` in `GeoNodesCallData` when executing geometry nodes.
Next Steps (mostly because they also involve simulations):
* Visualize nodes that have not been evaluated in the last evaluation.
* Fix issue with seemingly loosing baked data after undo.
* Improve error handling when baked data is not found.
* Show bake node in link drag search.
* Higher level tools for managing bakes.

Split the code, use preconditions, use rather plain language for
function names and add comments where it is not totally obvious, what
the code is supposed to do.
Before #108014, toggling "Auto Smooth" was an easy way to disable
evaluation of custom normals and face corner normals for faster
viewport playback performance. Now that corner normals are calculated
automatically as necessary, it's helpful to still have a way to disable
expensive normal computation for faster playback.
This commit adds a "Normals" scene simplify setting. To avoid a bunch
of complexity, it just influences which normals are requested from the
object by viewport rendering. In my tests, skipping calculating at
least doubled viewport FPS in a few test files with a large mesh with
custom normals. This works well because normals are cached and lazily
calculated.

The main problem is, that retiming key frame index is defined in strip
content space (0 <> seq->len -1), but API functions must rescale this
index by applying `SEQ_time_media_playback_rate_factor_get()` and return
value in timeline space.
This wasn't done properly, in many places, some had challenges:
- `SEQ_retiming_key_timeline_frame_get()` returned floats, but UI
expects integers. Otherwise keys may be drawn inbetween frames.
- Function `right_fake_key_frame_get()` must return exact frame of
keys, otherwise lookup by frame would fail. But `retime_key_draw()`
can not compensate position of last fake key, so this has to be done
in `fake_keys_draw()` and `try_to_realize_virtual_key()`.
- For transformation to work as expected, double precision value has
to be used for frame index.
- For UI either API would had to be extended to provide helper functions
to deal with FPS mismatch, or it needs to know the FPS difference.
I have opted to put `SEQ_time_media_playback_rate_factor_get()` in
"public" headers. Neither solution is great.
Add support for enum values in ID properties.
This is needed for the "Menu Switch" node implementation (#113445) which
relies on ID properties for the top-level modifier UI.
Enums items can optionally be added to the UI data of integer
properties. Each property stores a full set of the enum items to keep
things simple.
Enum items can be added to properties using the `id_properties_ui`
function in the python API. A detailed example can be found in the
`bl_pyapi_idprop.py` test.
There is currently no support yet for editing enum items through the UI.
This is because the "Edit Property" feature is implemented entirely
through a single operator (`WM_OT_properties_edit`) and its properties.
Buttons to add/remove/move items would be operators changing another
operator's properties. A refactor of the custom properties UI is likely
required to make this work.

The term `looptri` was used ambiguously for both single & arrays.
The term `tri` was also used, causing `tri->tri`.
Use terms:
- `looptris` for an array or when dealing with multiple items.
- `looptri` is used when dealing with a single item.
- `lt` for a single MLoopTri variables & arguments.
This was already a convention but not followed closely.
Recently this was inlined [0] however the purpose of this define is to
allow for the method of setting the value to be changed.

The Realtime compositor currently relies on the GPU cache in image IDs.
That cache only supports single layer images, so multi-layer images will
be acquired without a cache, introducing significant IO bottlenecks for
the GPU compositor.
This patch ignores the image GPU cache and stores the images in the
static cache manager of the compositor. Draw data was introduced to the
image ID for proper cache invalidation, like other IDs such as masks.
The downside is that the cache will no longer be shared between EEVEE
and the compositor. But realistically, images are not typically shared
between materials and compositors.
This is just a temporary solution until we have proper GPU storage
support for image buffers.

The horizon-scan setup was also de-duplicated

0.5ms is complex scenes.
However, this moves the max-roughness and and
resolution scaling to a common parameter.
This is to be able to support arbitrary closure

For context, see 6d09fa3577. Overall, these values were still
written in some cases, but never used. Nowadays the viewer node and
attribute overlays give even better answers to these needs.
This PR adds the drawing placement modes from GPv2.
The drawing placement defines the depth (origin, view, surface, etc.) and a plane (view, cursor, xz, etc.).
This introduces a new helper class `DrawingPlacement` that does all of the internals to find the correct projection and just exposes a simple function to project from screen space to the drawing plane/surface.
Note: Drawing on other strokes currently doesn't work, because GPv3 can't be rendered to image yet. We use the depth buffer of the grease pencil render result to find the right depth.

This is in preparation for eventual hierarchical bone collections.
The motivation here is that this will allow us to efficiently specify
children as an index range, which would be inefficient with a listbase
due to the list traversal overhead incurred for index-based look ups.
We're still saving to blend files as a list base for forwards compatibility
with Blender 4.0, but storing as an array at runtime for efficient indexing.
This should not result in any user-visible changes.

The `paint_init_pivot` calculates the `location` based
on the midpoint of the bounds of the object. For grease pencil
the bounds depend on the current frame (for original data).
This fixes the issue by making the `bounds_min_max` function
dependent on the `frame` and by introducing a `bounds_min_max_eval`
for evaluated data.
When pressing `I` in the viewport, the colors of the FCurve channels were no longer set correctly.
Caused by #113504
Fix by removing the flag that determined that in the first place,
and read straight from the user preferences. Then move the code
that sets the mode on the FCurve into the function that actually creates it.
For 99% of cases the code went to the user preference flag `AUTOKEY_FLAG_XYZ2RGB`
and if that was set, the `INSERTKEY_XYZ2RGB` would be set. The only case where this
was not from the user preferences was from custom keying sets.
There was an override flag for FCurve colors on custom keying sets.
I removed that with this patch since the use case is not apparent
and custom keying sets are hardly used.

While it may have been working from a practical PoV (not certain though,
since some bug would prevent clearing runtime data when writing embedded
Scene collection in current code), this is semantically wrong.
The owner of an embedded ID is a critical piece of information in
Blender data structure and ID management code. Having it written in
.blend files is also a potential good source of data for investigating
issues.
Further more, this handling of `owner` ID data is somewhat generic now
in ID management, so if this data should be considered runtime, then the
change should also be made in NodeTree and Key IDs.
This commit partially reverts 44dd3308a5, in the future I'd like to
be involved in the review of changes affecting ID management.
NOTE: fix for embedded collection runtime data not being cleared on
write will be committed separately.
No functional changes.
Rename the `eAutokey_Flag` to `eKeyInsert_Flag`

Add an "Index Switch" node which is meant as a simpler version of
the "Menu Switch" from #113445 that doesn't allow naming items
or displaying them in a dropdown, but still allows choosing between
an arbitrary number of items, unlike the regular "Switch" node.
Even when the Menu Switch is included (which should be in the
same release as this), it may still be helpful to have explicit mapping
of indices, and a fair amount of the internals can be shared anyway.

Currently we have options to transfer the paint mask, face sets, and
color attributes to the new mesh created by voxel remesh. This doesn't
make use of the generic attribute design, where it would be clearer to
transfer all attributes with the same methods. That's reflected in the
code as well-- we do duplicate work for the mask and vertex colors, for
example.
This commit replaces the transfer options with a single checkbox for
all attributes. All attribute types on all domains are transferred with
basically the same method as the "Sample Nearest" node from geometry
nodes-- they take the value from the nearest source element of the same
domain. Face corners are handled differently than before. Instead of
retrieving the mixed value of all the corners from the nearest source
vertex, the value from the nearest corner of the nearest face.
---
Some timing information, showing that when interpolating the same
data, the attribute propagation is significantly faster than before.
Edge and corner attributes would add some cost (edges more than
corners), but might not always be present.

This add the displacement option to EEVEE materials.
This unifies the option for Cycles and EEVEE.
The displacement only option is not matching cycles
and not particularly useful. So we decided to not
support it and revert to displacement + bump.

This uses the principles outlined in
Screen Space Indirect Lighting with Visibility Bitmask
to compute local and distant diffuse lighting.
This implements it inside the ray-tracing module as a fallback when the
surface is too rough. The threshold for blending between technique is
available to the user.
The implementation first setup a radiance buffer and a view normal
buffer. These buffer are tracing resolution as the lighting quality is
less important for rough surfaces. These buffers are necessary to avoid
re-projection on a per sample basis, and finding and rotating the
surface normal.
The processing phase scans the whole screen in 2 directions and outputs
local incomming lighting from neighbor pixels and the remaining
occlusion for everything that is outside the view.
The final steps filters the result of the previous phase while applying
the occlusion on the probe radiance to have an energy conserving mix.
