This reverts commit d53862351d042c4c36c7ebb49feb230725e43a0b.
After conducting tests with artists at the studio, it was observed that
altering the Transform Modal Maps caused significant disruption due to
the heavy reliance on the "Proportional Editing" and "Automatic
Constraint" features.
Considering this, it is now deemed more beneficial to provide users
with the choice of adapting their muscle memory to the new changes.

This PR adds support to override the world with the HDRI of the
viewport.
Blurring of the background and camera based rotation isn't supported.
Switching the HDRI would still use the world diffuse light as that is
baked into the irradiance cache.

Similar to curves, the ".selection" attribute is used to store selection.
Selection isn't visualized in the viewport yet, but this should be added
at some point anywya. See f89b32382af9e49c46a0.
This PR adds a new operator to run a node group on object geometry.
Only curves sculpt mode is supported for now, to simplify the design.
A new geometry node editor context to edit operator groups is also
added. This allows changing any node group, rather than only node
groups that are part of the active modifier context.
3D viewport menus are added with any geometry node group
asset in a catalog that contains the `Operator` tag. Currently Blender
must be restarted to refresh the list of available operators.
This is only the first phase of the node group operator feature.
Many more features will be added in next steps.

Similar to 5f16e24cc9ac4f620df2, this adds support for edit mode
to the point cloud object type, which is currently hidden behind an
experimental option. No interaction is possible yet, for now this
can be used as a testing for a node-group-operator-only mode.
As suggested in #108669, the "Navigate during Transform" option has
been removed and this feature works by default.
Now if you press `G`, `R` or `S` to move, rotate or scale an object you
can also navigate in the viewport.
Note that this update modifies the default keymap.
Now pressing `Alt` is required for the following modals:
- `PROPORTIONAL_SIZE_UP`,
- `PROPORTIONAL_SIZE_DOWN`,
- `PROPORTIONAL_SIZE`,
- `AUTOIK_CHAIN_LEN_UP`,
- `AUTOIK_CHAIN_LEN_DOWN`,
- `AUTOCONSTRAIN`,
- `AUTOCONSTRAINPLANE`.

- "Front"/"Back": 'put something at the front/back' or 'the front/back
face of something'. (e. g. the Empty Image options, Depth and Side
option, both use the same strings as enum, which should be avoided
in some languages).
- "Flip": invert, as in normals, or mirror, as in an image.
- "Path": a path to a resource, in general a file but sometimes a
datablock, as opposed to a trajectory in space.
- "Join": disambiguate for the Grease Pencil operator, which may use a
different word as that for meshes.
- "Wave": an ondulating motion, as opposed to a fluid dynamics motion.
- "Step": can mean the distance between two things, or a number of
times to do something. In this case it is better to use the plural.
- "Edge": generally the edges of a mesh, but can also mean edge
detection. Additionally, it was used for the option to enable
Freestyle. This was changed to "Use Freestyle".
- "Boundary": the limit of a grease pencil drawing for filling
purposes, as opposed to the external limit of a (non-manifold) mesh.
- "Rotations": can be translated to something like "Turns", in the
context of a spiral.

Adds a new UI template to view the current layer tree of the active Grease Pencil object.
This UI tree view implements the following features (for now):
- Displaying all the layers with their names and highlighting the active layer.
- Changing the active layer by clicking on an item.
- Adding new layers (using a new operator).
- Removing the active layer (using a new operator).
- Renaming a layer.

Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/109095
This was due to a wrong mapping of tools in the toolbar.
The fix makes sure that the correct selection tools are used for the
old grease pencil objects.
In order to accomplish this properly, the new grease pencil objects
use their own edit mode context.
This way the two objects are cleanly seperated.
This refactors how a geometry nodes node tree is converted to a lazy-function
graph. Previously, all nodes were inserted into a single graph. This was fine
because every node was evaluated at most once per node group evaluation.
However, loops (#108896) break this assumption since now nodes may be
evaluated multiple times and thus a single flat graph does not work anymore.
Now, a separate lazy-function is build for every zone which gives us much
more flexibility for what can happen in a zone. Right now, the change only
applies to simulation zones since that's the only kind of zone we have.
Technically, those zones could be inlined, but turning them into a separate
lazy-function also does not hurt and makes it possible to test this refactor
without implementing loops first. Also, having them as separate functions
might help in the future if we integrate a substep loop directly into the
simulation zone.
The most tricky part here is to just link everything up correctly, especially
with respect to deterministic anonymous attribute lifetimes. Fortunately,
correctness can be checked visually by looking at the generated graphs.
The logging/viewer system also had to be refactored a bit, because now there
can be multiple different `ComputeContext` in a single node tree. Each zone
is in a separate `ComputeContext`. To make it work, the `ViewerPath` system
now explicitly supports zones and drawing code will look up the right logger
for showing inspection data.
No functional changes are expected, except that the spreadsheet now shows
"Simulation Zone" in the context path if the viewer is in a simulation.
This patch adds support for two of the three selection domains in the Edit Mode tool settings: point and stroke.
Affected selection operators: select all, lasso select, select pick, box select.

Add a quaternion rotation socket type, and using the recently added
rotation attribute type, support the type in most of the multi-type
geometry nodes, and modifier attribute inputs and outputs.
The socket is still exposed with an XYZ Euler default value.
In the future we can add modes to this rotation value similar
to object rotations.
Rotation values have no implicit conversions to other types.
Nodes to convert to and from rotation values will be added
in a follow-up commit.
For now, the new socket type is hidden behind and experimental
option, because we haven't chosen the final color for it yet.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108903
Adds an optional list of panels to node trees. Each socket can be
assigned a panel. UI panels will be created in the future in the
modifier for these grouped sockets.
Panels are stored as a pointer array in node trees, next to socket
declarations. Each panel has a name, but it does not have to be unique.
In future a panel might also store whether it is visible by default and
similar information.
C API and RNA API are both added. Panels and their socket
assignments are accessible to users through another list in the "Group"
tab of the node editor sidebar.
Sockets in the same panel will remain together even when adding,
removing, or moving sockets or panels, renaming, etc.
A socket can be moved up or down within a panel but each panel
remains a contiguous block. Actual tree views may be created later.

Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/108870
Store subdivision surface creases in two new named float attributes:
- `crease_vert`
- `crease_edge`
This is similar to 2a56403cb0dbcbc1dfb19a9bf7e6434517cbdca9.
The attributes are naming conventions, so their data type and domain
aren't enforced, and may be interpolated when necessary. Editing tools
and the subdivision surface modifier use the hard-coded name. It might
be best if these were edited as generic attributes in the future, but
in the meantime using generic attributes helps.
The attributes are visible in the list, which is how they're now meant
to be removed. They are now interchangeable with any tool that works
with the generic attribute system-- even tools like vertex paint can
affect creases now.
This is a breaking change. Forward compatibility isn't preserved for
versions before 3.6, and the `crease` property in RNA is removed in
favor of making a smaller API surface area with just the attribute API.
`Mesh.vertex_creases` and `Mesh.edge_creases` now just return the
matching attribute if possible, and are now implemented in Python.
New functions `*ensure` and `*remove` also replace the operators to
add and remove the layers for Python.
A few extrude node test files have to be updated because of different
(now generic) attribute interpolation behavior.

fa5cc84a0a52)
Getting the right modifier would still fail / throw errors when not done
from the modifier extra ops dropdown.
Only there, a 'modifier' attribute is set for context (via
`uiLayoutSetContextPointer` in `modifier_ops_extra_draw`).
So now check if a 'modifier' attribute is set for context (and fallback
to using the active modifier instead).
This way, polling errors in F3 search are gone and you can actually
execute the operators which are also in modifier extra ops dropdown from
elsewhere (e.g. F3 search).

Face maps were added as a prototype of a new rigging solution during
2.8 development. Their storage is redundant with the newer generic
attribute system (specifically with integer face attributes), and
they were never used much. This commit removes the face map list
and converts the storage to an attribute with the name `face_maps`.
There is nowhere to store the face map names anymore, so those
are not kept.
It probably still makes sense to have a feature like mesh face gizmo
selection for rigging. But the design and implementation woulds likely
have to change significantly, including possibly changing the storage
type, and making use of the generic attribute system instead of a
special type.
See #105317 for more discussion.
The same Panel was named different in Image editor -> Paint
and in 3D view -> Texture Paint. 'Cursor' is the common name for
this panel in all paint modes.

The filter is used to reduce noise while preserving edges. It can be used to create a cartoon effect from photorealistic images.
It offers two variations:
1) Classic aka isotropic kuwahara filter: simple and faster computation. Algorithm splits an area around a single pixel in four parts and computes the mean of the region with the lowest standard deviation.
2) Anisotropic Kuwahara filter: improves the classical approach by considering the direction of structures of regions
This patch implements both approaches above as multi-threaded operations for the full-frame and tiled compositor.

Now the operator is used for both the internal & external editor,
so there is no need for the caller to call this operator only when
the preferences are set.
Add a user preference to set up a custom text editor for editing text
files with the "Edit Source" action in the UI context menu.
- An operator TEXT_OT_jump_to_file_at_point has been added.
- A custom editor can be set in the user preferences.
- A preset has been included for "Visual Studio Code".
- When the editor is not set, use Blender's internal editor.

The snap mode called "Face Nearest" (and the "Increment" but that's for
another time) doesn't behave like the other snap modes.
Unlike the other snap modes, "Face Nearest" does not act on a Snap
Base (or Snap Source).
It always acts on the origin of individually transformed elements, (such
as each vertex individually).
It works just like the "Project Individual Elements" option.
So this commit makes the following changes:
- `Snap With` was moved to the beginning of the popover
- `Align Rotation to Target` and `Backface Culling` have been moved closer to the snap targets
- `Snap With`, `Target Selection` and `Align Rotation to Target` are no longer hidden by varying the mode and options
- `Project Individual Elements` has been replaced with the `Face Project` option
- `Face Nearest` has been moved to stick together with the `Face Project` option

Adds the "Corners of Edge" topology node to geometry nodes.
Combining this node with the "Face of Corner" node allows getting
informations about the faces connected to an edge. The behavior is
slightly non-obvious-- the node only gives the corner neighbors
that come *before* the current edge in directly neighboring faces.
This allows the operation to be easily reversed and reduces
redundancy between nodes.

For emitter particle systems, these were never rendered anyways, Path is
kept for hair systems of course.
As a consequence, the new default for particle systems is:
- render as None (users have to explicitly set this to object/
collection)
- display as point
When changing to Hair type, this automatically gets set back to
- render as Path
- display as Render
Changing back to emitter, will use points as display again (and render
as None -- same here, users have to explicitly set this to object/
collection)

* New DNA structures.
* New drawing engine for grease pencil (gpencil-next).
* Tests for the new grease pencil data-type.
* A few operators for conversion, switching modes and (simple) drawing.
Exposed to the user:
* An experimental option to switch to the new grease pencil.
* This will switch the grease pencil render engine to gpencil-next which can only render the new object type.
Current grease pencil objects will no longer render.
* Changing this option currently requires a restart of blender (for the keymap to update).
* A conversion setting in the `Object` > `Convert To` operator.
* A drawing operator in `Draw Mode`.

Store bevel weights in two new named float attributes:
- `bevel_weight_vert`
- `bevel_weight_edge`
These attributes are naming conventions. Blender doesn't enforce
their data type or domain at all, but some editing features and
modifiers use the hard-coded name. Eventually those tools should
become more generic, but this is a simple change to allow more
flexibility in the meantime.
The largest user-visible changes are that the attributes populate the
attribute list, and are propagated by geometry nodes. The method of
removing this data is now the attribute list as well.
This is a breaking change. Forward compatibility is not preserved, and
the vertex and edge `bevel_weight` properties are removed. Python API
users are expected to use the attribute API to get and set the values.

Used to be https://archive.blender.org/developer/D17123.
Internally these are already using the same code path anyways, there's no point in maintaining two distinct nodes.
The obvious approach would be to add Anisotropy controls to the Glossy BSDF node and remove the Anisotropic BSDF node. However, that would break forward compability, since older Blender versions don't know how to handle the Anisotropy input on the Glossy BSDF node.
Therefore, this commit technically removes the Glossy BSDF node, uses versioning to replace them with an Anisotropic BSDF node, and renames that node to "Glossy BSDF".
That way, when you open a new file in an older version, all the nodes show up as Anisotropic BSDF nodes and render correctly.
This is a bit ugly internally since we need to preserve the old `idname` which now no longer matches the UI name, but that's not too bad.
Also removes the "Sharp" distribution option and replaces it with GGX, sets Roughness to zero and disconnects any input to the Roughness socket.

Since a generic snap cursor was implemented (which can be used by Tools and by DragDrop), the Placement Settings are no longer a settings of the "VIEW3D_OT_interactive_add" Operator.
With that implementation, those properties started to be defined in a

As they are properties initialized at runtime, they are not saved in

Node group sockets have user-exposed data types, and sometimes

The UI to select these types and subtypes use an operator menu with a

This button needs to be manually translated since its label is

Additionally, some subtypes need to be extracted from the Property

By default this flag is disabled, so new rigs will not see this 'locking
to the origin' behaviour. Versioning code ensures that the flag is
enabled on older files, to preserve the behaviour of existing rigs.
This also bumps the Blender subversion and at the same time fixes an
incorrect bump in ee08b2ddffbe34a9ffe6396e394640ab70b41338 (where the

Adds an input node Signed Distance that can
be used to refer to the distance-grid of an SDF volume.
Right now it's experimental and can be enabled by enabling
"New Volume Nodes" in the preferences.
It returns a float AttributeFieldInput called 'distance' which
can tell Volume nodes which grid to get.
See #103248.
For realtime use cases, storing the geometry's state in memory at every
frame can be prohibitively expensive. This commit adds an option to
disable the caching, stored per object and accessible in the baking
panel. The default is still to enable caching.

- The official spelling of FFMPEG is FFmpeg (upper, then lower case).
- The normal vector copy and paste operators shoud be singular because
they can only be used on a single element.
- The "Parent File" file browser operator goes up one level in the
file hierarchy. It should be called "Parent Directory", like the
current description "Go to the parent directory".
- "Mass Vertex Group" used to define the mass, but was reused at some
point and now actually defines cloth pinning so it should be called
"Pin Vertex Group", as in the UI.
- The Transformation constraint's Map To Type suffered from a
typo (probably of -> on).
- "Fall-off" is more commonly spelled "Falloff".
- "Effected" should really be "Affected" in this case.
- Rephrase the descriptions for the curve painting tools drawing

they allow selecting in which plane to draw curves using the Curve

This adds support for building simulations with geometry nodes. A new
`Simulation Input` and `Simulation Output` node allow maintaining a
simulation state across multiple frames. Together these two nodes form
a `simulation zone` which contains all the nodes that update the simulation
state from one frame to the next.
A new simulation zone can be added via the menu
(`Simulation > Simulation Zone`) or with the node add search.
The simulation state contains a geometry by default. However, it is possible
to add multiple geometry sockets as well as other socket types. Currently,
field inputs are evaluated and stored for the preceding geometry socket in
the order that the sockets are shown. Simulation state items can be added
by linking one of the empty sockets to something else. In the sidebar, there
is a new panel that allows adding, removing and reordering these sockets.
The simulation nodes behave as follows:
* On the first frame, the inputs of the `Simulation Input` node are evaluated
to initialize the simulation state. In later frames these sockets are not
evaluated anymore. The `Delta Time` at the first frame is zero, but the
simulation zone is still evaluated.
* On every next frame, the `Simulation Input` node outputs the simulation
state of the previous frame. Nodes in the simulation zone can edit that
data in arbitrary ways, also taking into account the `Delta Time`. The new
simulation state has to be passed to the `Simulation Output` node where it
is cached and forwarded.
* On a frame that is already cached or baked, the nodes in the simulation
zone are not evaluated, because the `Simulation Output` node can return
the previously cached data directly.
It is not allowed to connect sockets from inside the simulation zone to the
outside without going through the `Simulation Output` node. This is a necessary
restriction to make caching and sub-frame interpolation work. Links can go into
the simulation zone without problems though.
Anonymous attributes are not propagated by the simulation nodes unless they
are explicitly stored in the simulation state. This is unfortunate, but
currently there is no practical and reliable alternative. The core problem
is detecting which anonymous attributes will be required for the simulation
and afterwards. While we can detect this for the current evaluation, we can't
look into the future in time to see what data will be necessary. We intend to
make it easier to explicitly pass data through a simulation in the future,
even if the simulation is in a nested node group.
There is a new `Simulation Nodes` panel in the physics tab in the properties
editor. It allows baking all simulation zones on the selected objects. The
baking options are intentially kept at a minimum for this MVP. More features
for simulation baking as well as baking in general can be expected to be added
separately.
All baked data is stored on disk in a folder next to the .blend file. #106937
describes how baking is implemented in more detail. Volumes can not be baked
yet and materials are lost during baking for now. Packing the baked data into
the .blend file is not yet supported.
The timeline indicates which frames are currently cached, baked or cached but
invalidated by user-changes.
Simulation input and output nodes are internally linked together by their
`bNode.identifier` which stays the same even if the node name changes. They
are generally added and removed together. However, there are still cases where
"dangling" simulation nodes can be created currently. Those generally don't
cause harm, but would be nice to avoid this in more cases in the future.

Caused by 3a1cf838ca09.
Smooth view transitions only work when an operator is **invoked** (wont
work from **exec**, see `WM_operator_smooth_viewtx_get`).
Now 3a1cf838ca09 changed the `operator_context` for some other operators
in the menu to 'EXEC_REGION_WIN' (for good reason). But setting
`operator_context` on a `uiLayout` will set context on the **root**
layout (not the actual sublayout alone), so all following operators
"inherited" the [changed] context.
Now make sure following operators get properly invoked again by giving
the right context.

The node outputs the index of the closest element to itself. See #102387
for the original design.
This is different from the Sample Nearest node in two important ways:
* It does not have a geometry input, instead the geometry is taken from the
field evaluation context.
* The node can exclude the "current" element from the search.
* The group id input can be used to build subsets of elements that only
consider each other as neighbors and ignore elements with other ids.

This patch adds several tools and options to the weight paint mode of Grease Pencil.
* Blur tool: smooths out vertex weights, by calculating a gaussian blur of adjacent vertices.
* Average tool: painting the average weight from all weights under the brush.
* Smear tool: smudges weights by grabbing the weights under the brush and 'dragging' them.
* With the + and - icons in the toolbar, the user can easily switch between adding and subtracting weight while drawing weights.
* With shortcut `D` you can toggle between these two.
* The auto-normalize options ensures that all bone-deforming vertex groups add up to 1.0 while weight painting.
* With `Ctrl-F` a radial control for weight is invoked (in addition to the radial controls for brush size and strength).
* With `Ctrl-RMB` the user can sample the weight. This sets the brush Weight from the weight under the cursor.
* When painting weights in vertex groups for bones, the user can quickly switch to another vertex group by clicking on a bone with `Ctrl-LMB`.
For this to work, follow these steps:
* Select the armature and switch to Pose Mode.
* Select your Grease Pencil object and switch immediately to Weight Paint Mode.
* Select a bone in the armature with `Ctrl-LMB`. The corresponding vertex group is automatically activated.

Pull Request: #104568
Rebased for main instead of sculpt-dev
The built-in brush identifier didn't match the enum name causing
brush assignment not to update the tool-system (clearing the tool).
Resolve by using generate_from_enum_ex(..) to avoid each brush
definition having to manually duplicate enum definitions.
Also avoid using a dict as a default argument. While it didn't cause
problems - in general it's bad practice and worth avoiding as any
modifications produce strange behavior.
Use names:
- `tool_settings` instead of `ts`.
- `props` instead of `op` / `prop` / `op_props`
As Python may reference operators, don't confuse the operator
properties with an instance of the operator.
In both cases these names were already used for most scripts.
- "Lens" can be a transparent object used in cameras, or specifically
its property of focal length
- "Empty" can be an adjective meaning void, or an object type. The
latter is already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
- "New" and "Old" are adjectives that can have agreements in some
languages
- "Modified" is an adjective that can have agreement in some languages
- "Clipping" can be a property of a camera, or a behavior of the
mirror modifier
- "Value" in HSV nodes, see #105113
- "Area" in the Face Area geometry node, can mean a measurement or a
window type
- "New" is an adjective that can have agreement
- "Tab" can be a UI element or a whitespace character
- "Volume" can mean a measurement or an object type. The latter is
already disambiguated using `ID_ID`
These changes introduce the new `BLT_I18NCONTEXT_TIME` translation

It was that names of related "combo" operations
like Hue/Saturation/Value, *Dilate/Erode*
and Brightness/Contrast should be separated
by slashes in their names.
This patch changes this for the multiple nodes
and operators concerning Hue/Saturation/Value
across Blender.
Note1: This patch should only touch UI names
which do not need versioning and should not
break scripts.
Note2: This breaks first letter fuzzy search
for "hsv". It was noted by @HooglyBoogly that
the "/" character needs to be added to the
fuzzy search split list. Note however that such
search is already broken in Main for nodes like
Brightness/Contrast and Dilate/Erode which
already use slash separators
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/106721
Rename *Bright/Contrast* to *Brightness/Contrast* in order to avoid the use of shortened names and improve consistency within Blender and with industry conventions.
Reasoning:
The modified color characteristic is called *brightness*, not *bright*. You don't modify the *bright* of an image.
This also interferes with search in case someone searches for brightness, producing no results.
*Note: This patch should only touch UI names which do not need versioning. It leaves the actual property name in nodes for a future breaking release.*

Introduce a context manager that temporarily overrides a UILayout's
operator context.
Instead of writing this:
```py
default_op_context = layout.context
layout.context = 'OTHER_VALUE'
layout.do_stuff()
layout.context = default_op_context
```
you can now write this:
```py
from bl_ui_utils.layout import operator_context
with operator_context(layout, 'OTHER_VALUE'):
layout.do_stuff()
```
This is also exception-safe; it will always ensure the layout's operator
context is restored when the `with` body is exited, regardless of
whether that's done with an exception or regularly.

This was an issue with the `operator_context`. It's a bit confusing because it
looks like every `uiLayout` has its own, but in `uiLayoutSetOperatorContext`
you can see that the `operator_context` is always set on the root layout for
some reason.
The fix is to set `INVOKE_REGION_WIN` as the operator context after it has been
set to something else (I found this to be the default by printing the operator
context before it was changed).

Add a Gaussian smoothing operator to supersede the current
smoothing operator in the graph editor.
Advantage over the current implementation:
* Supports modal operations
* Is independent of key density
* More options in the redo panel
* More predictable Impulse Response
Option in the redo panel to change
Filter Width: How far out on each side of a key the code checks
to average key values
Sigma: The shape of the bell curve, lower values make a sharper bell curve
reducing the smoothing effect.
Too High values will make the code behave like an average filter as the
curve in the -1/1 range will almost be flat.
On a technical note, the operator needs to store additional data when running in modal
to avoid allocating/deallocating data on every modal run.
For that reason the `tGraphSliderOp` struct has been extended with
`void *operator_data` and `void (*free_operator_data)(void *operator_data)`.
The former is the data and the latter is a function responsible for freeing that data.

Geometry Nodes: SDF Volume nodes milestone 1
Adds initial support for SDF volume creation and manipulation.
`SDF volume` is Blender's name of an OpenVDB grid of type Level Set.
See the discussion about naming in #91668.
The new nodes are:
- Mesh to SDF Volume: Converts a mesh to an SDF Volume
- Points to SDF Volume: Converts points to an SDF Volume
- Mean Filter SDF Volume: Applies a Mean Filter to an SDF
- Offset SDF Volume: Applies an offset to an SDF
- SDF Volume Sphere: Creates an SDF Volume in the shape of a sphere
For now an experimental option `New Volume Nodes` needs to be
enabled in Blender preferences for the nodes to be visible.
