Also added keys for toggling harden normals,
and cycling through miter types.
Still to do: add some shortcuts for affecting the
spread value for arc miters.
Caused by an error in rBe65784a0519e.
And since we are going over loop triangles anyways, we can remove the
part quecking for quads [remainder of tessface era] entirely.

NLA requires a usable default value for all properties that
are to be animated via it, without any exceptions. This is
the real cause of T36496: using the default of 0 for a scale
related custom property obviously doesn't work.
Thus, to really fix this it is necessary to support configurable
default values for custom properties, which are very frequently
used in rigs for auxiliary settings. For common use it is enough
to support this for scalar float and integer properties.
The default can be set via the custom property configuration
popup, or a right click menu option. In addition, to help in
updating old rigs, an operator that saves current values as
defaults for all object and bone properties is added.

Nice side-effect of using new __annotations__ thingy to store
dynamically-generated fields in a class: __annotations__ dict is not
ensured to exist for a given class, so we may end up modifying on of the
parents' one!
Ensure we use lists for keymap items and item properties.
This means scripts can access keymap definitions from other layouts,
manipulating them without sometimes encountering a tuple that needs
to be converted into a list.
Use the same data format and loader that the default key-maps use.
This supports nested properties (needed for macros)
and fixes modal key-maps which weren't supported.
This format still needs to be documented.
bpy_extras were meant to be useful high-level helper functions for
script authors to perform common operations,
to avoid writing to verbose API's.
bpy_extras.keymap_utils contains some specialized API calls
mainly intended for Blender's own internal use.
Move keymap import export to internal API.
Currently the filenames are used when setting keymaps.
This hard coded naming meant the preset and setting function
need to be kept in sync.
Prefer to not have hard coded replacements which need to be duplicated.
For Blender builtin configurations the option to choose the select mouse remains
and is now also in the splash screen. It works by changing the keymap dynamically
in the script, rather than using special events.
The system of automatic switching of events was not flexible enough to deal with
side effects that require further keymap changes, so it is now under more manual
control in the script.
This breaks compatibility for some scripts and exported key configurations.
These can be fixed by replacing SELECTMOUSE, ACTIONMOUSE, EVT_TWEAK_S and
EVT_TWEAK_A with appropriate LEFTMOUSE, RIGHTMOUSE, EVT_TWEAK_L and
EVT_TWEAK_R events.
Other than that, there should be no functional changes.
This refactors loading of key configurations to clear and refill existing
ones, rather than adding a new one and then removing the old one.
This fixes broken loading of non-default configurations after recent changes,
and prepares for future changes to make it possible to dynamically change
key configurations based on user preferences.
Review wasn't finished yet, but I just commit this for now so that I can make some progress..

This should be purely an implementation change,
for end users there should be no functional difference.
The entire key configuration is in one file with ~5000 lines of code.
Mostly avoiding code duplication and preserve comments and utility
functions from the C code.
It's a bit long but for searching and editing it's also convenient to
have it all in one file.
Notes:
- Actual keymap is shared by blender / blender_legacy
and stored in `keymap_data/blender_default.py`
This only generates JSON-like data to be passed into
`keyconfig_import_from_data`, allowing other presets to load and
manipulate the default keymap.
- Each preset defines 'keyconfig_data'
which can be shared between presets.
- Some of the utility functions for generating keymap items still
need to be ported over to Python.
- Some keymap items can be made into loops (marked as TODO).

RNA's ViewLayer would present 'first level' of layer collection as a
list (collection property), when it is actually now only a single item,
same as the scene's master collection.
Note: did not try to update view_layer python tests, those are already
fully broken for quiet some time I guess (they still assume
view_layer.collections to be mutable e.g.)...
Ellipsis value is internal ingredient only, to tag hidden _node_normalmap
'real' property as not yet initialized. Public node_normalmap accessor
should never ever have that value, it's either None or a valid node!
This reverts commit ce4cfbe108d0641832d86a731ea32f596220b7c5.
Obviously wrong 'fix', please do not touch other dev’s code, especially
in active/WIP area, when you do not fully understand it.
Fix broken behavior in case of texcoords mapping (we do need texcoords
node in all cases, then, even for UV coords...).
Use nodes by default when generating new write-allowed wrapper around a
material.
Do not try to find nodes in existing tree all the time, do it only once,
even for lazy-initialized nodes (through accessors).
Fix ugly spacing in property accessors (since it looks like some people
do not like a single 'block' with both getters, setters and prop
definition, at least use one sep line everywhere (and two sep lines to
separate properties)...
Best to give its actual name so it's clear that the Principled BSDF does
not have a diffuse color exactly, and does not have an alpha component.
Also image textures use UVs by default, so avoid creating a texture
coordinate node for that.
Loop triangles are tessellated triangles create from polygons, for renderers
or exporters that need to match Blender's polygon tesselation exactly. These
are a read-only runtime cache.
Tessfaces are a legacy data structure from before Blender supported n-gons,
and were already mostly removed from the C code.
Details on porting code to loop triangles is in the release notes.

Currently some modes share tool keymaps, we might want to disable
this since it's confusing editing one thing in multiple places.
However this should be resolved in the tool definitions.
That new bpy_extras' node_shader_utils module is remotely based on
existing addons' cycles_shader_compat module. It has some key
differences though:
- It is based on Principled shader, instead of the noodle combination
of half a dozen simpler shaders.
- It does not do any value conversion (like e.g. clamping, which was
only suited for FBX). Any conversion/adaptation is to be done
by each IO add-on.
- It extensively uses accessors to offer:
- Easy read/write of values, hiding all the hairy noodly nodes
(principled shader helps a lot here).
- lazy creation of most nodes on accessing (when generating a
material), which avoids getting unused nodes in final shader.
- We only use Principled BSDF so far though, which means some features
supported by previous system are not yet implemented in new one.
Note that, even though we support 'exporting' side of things, this will
only work for a very specific (and basic) kind of shader. This will have
to be clearly explained in end-user documentation.
Also, that code has had some basic testing, but most certainly needs a
lot more refinement.
As proof-of-concept, OBJ IO script will be updated to use that new
system after that commit.
Consequences of new requirement to use named keywords parameters for our
RNA API... Hopefully fixed all other cases in that file as well, but
guess we'll find more of those in comming weeks. :|
Misleading name since it's between 0..1.
Use as a keyword argument to prepare for keyword only args.
Also document that leaving unset has special behavior.

- New drawing engine.
- New grease pencil modes Draw/Sculpt/Edit and Weight Paint.
- New brushes for grease pencil.
- New modifiers for grease pencil.
- New shaders FX.
- New material system (replace old palettes and colors).
- Split of annotations (old grease pencil) and new grease pencil object.
- UI adapted to blender 2.8.

This is the result of nearly two years of development and I want thanks firstly the other members of the grease pencil team: Daniel M. Lara, Matias Mendiola and Joshua Leung for their support, ideas and to keep working in the project all the time, without them this project had been impossible.
Also, I want thanks other Blender developers for their help, advices and to be there always to help me, and specially to Clément Foucault, Dalai Felinto, Pablo Vázquez and Campbell Barton.
Useful to store a snapshot of the current keymap state
so changes to the default keymap are ignored.
Also useful for testing keymap export works properly.
- Logical use of fields since they define type information.
- Avoids using ordered-dict metaclass.
Properties using regular assignments will print a warning and load,
however the order is undefined.
Instead of running code to create a keymap, store them as data.
This allows for keymaps to share content as well as running
transformations at load time.
This makes it possible to have a single shading nodetree that contains
separate Cycles and Eevee shaders. By default the target is set to All
so shaders are shared.
Moves the preset into a menu for the panel header, so it can be changed
without opening the panel and takes up less space. Two remaining issues:
* For long lists the add new preset button can be scrolled off screen.
* We should support showing the name of the chosen preset in the panel
header, but the current preset system does not support detecting which
preset is used.

For many years, animators have been complaining about how keyframing a (transform)
property directly would leave them ungrouped, while keyframing them using a Keying Set
would put them into a group based on the name of the keyingset.
This commit attempts to improve (unify + make consistent) the default behaviour:
* All object transforms now get added to an "Object Transforms" group,
regardless of whether they were added individually via buttons or keyingset
* All bone transforms now get added to a group corresponding to the name of the bone
instead of only the ones added via keyingset
OVERVIEW
* In 2.7 terminology, all layers and groups are now collection datablocks.
* These collections are nestable, linkable, instanceable, overrideable, ..
which opens up new ways to set up scenes and link + override data.
* Viewport/render visibility and selectability are now a part of the collection
and shared across all view layers and linkable.
* View layers define which subset of the scene collection hierarchy is excluded
for each. For many workflows one view layer can be used, these are more of an
advanced feature now.
OUTLINER
* The outliner now has a "View Layer" display mode instead of "Collections",
which can display the collections and/or objects in the view layer.
* In this display mode, collections can be excluded with the right click menu.
These will then be greyed out and their objects will be excluded.
* To view collections not linked to any scene, the "Blender File" display mode
can be used, with the new filtering option to just see Colleciton datablocks.
* The outliner right click menus for collections and objects were reorganized.
* Drag and drop still needs to be improved. Like before, dragging the icon or
text gives different results, we'll unify this later.
LINKING AND OVERRIDES
* Collections can now be linked into the scene without creating an instance,
with the link/append operator or from the collections view in the outliner.
* Collections can get static overrides with the right click menu in the outliner,
but this is rather unreliable and not clearly communicated at the moment.
* We still need to improve the make override operator to turn collection instances
into collections with overrides directly in the scene.
PERFORMANCE
* We tried to make performance not worse than before and improve it in some
cases. The main thing that's still a bit slower is multiple scenes, we have to
change the layer syncing to only updated affected scenes.
* Collections keep a list of their parent collections for faster incremental
updates in syncing and caching.
* View layer bases are now in a object -> base hash to avoid quadratic time
lookups internally and in API functions like visible_get().
VERSIONING
* Compatibility with 2.7 files should be improved due to the new visibility
controls. Of course users may not want to set up their scenes differently
now to avoid having separate layers and groups.
* Compatibility with 2.8 is mostly there, and was tested on Eevee demo and Hero
files. There's a few things which are know to be not quite compatible, like
nested layer collections inside groups.
* The versioning code for 2.8 files is quite complicated, and isolated behind
#ifdef so it can be removed at the end of the release cycle.
KNOWN ISSUES
* The G-key group operators in the 3D viewport were left mostly as is, they
need to be modified still to fit better.
* Same for the groups panel in the object properties. This needs to be updated
still, or perhaps replaced by something better.
* Collections must all have a unique name. Less restrictive namespacing is to
be done later, we'll have to see how important this is as all objects within
the collections must also have a unique name anyway.
* Full scene copy and delete scene are exactly doing the right thing yet.

This feature is limited (only byte PPM output, no multi-view),
only works with specific configurations.
This also causes some maintenance overhead
when testing changes to the render pipeline.
- UILayout.popover(.. panel_type ..)
A single panel
- UILayout.popover_group(.. panel categories ..)
Expands all panels matching args.
Currently used in the topbar for redo and paint options.
This is rather uncommon when operator will operate on a non-active view layer,
so there is no need to do full scene update.
This change solves lag first time using Extrude operator in edit mode.
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.
In some cases it doesn't make sense for add-ons to be listed for hiding.
Especially for import/export which use minimal UI space.
This adds `bl_info["use_owner"]` to add-ons,
currently defaulting to True for all non Import-Export add-ons.
Allows for each workspace to have it's own add-ons on display.
Filtering for: Panels, Menus, Keymaps & Manipulators.
Automatically applies to add-ons at the moment.
Access from workspace, toggled off by default
once enabled, add-ons can be white-listed.
See D3076
- 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.
