When a CacheFile datablock is copied to an in-main datablock, it means that
the new copy should be independent of the old copy. In this case certain
properties are reset/duplicated. When it is copied to a no-main datablock,
we assume this is a copy-on-write copy that's used for evaluating things,
in which case the handle and object paths are referenced instead of
reset/ duplicated. This prevents us from re-opening the Alembic file every
time a new CoW copy is made.
The same approach is taken when freeing data (only when an in-main datablock
is freed do we actually free the data).
This makes evaluated objects to point to a non-evaluated collection,
which is already really bad. What is even more worse, objects in those
collections are not evaluated either.
Proper solution would be to implement visibility flag for nodes, which
will be set to 0 for transform/geometry components, but which will be
1 for copy-on-write components.
This way we will guarantee consistency of dependency graph.
For now this change is good enough and unlocks production.
Fixes T55375: Crash when changing visibility of instanced collection
Fixes T55357: Particle geometry crash
- all known image types are supported
- BpyAPI for studiolights added
- added open user pref operator in shading menu
- possible to add multiple files in a single run
For now refreshing studio lights will free all studiolights and reinit
the whole mechanism. This can be improved by only freeing deleted, reset
updated and add new custom studiolights.

After testing in the studio and extending the event system for
drag events, we've agreed on adjustments to the new keymap,
see: T55162
- Tab: Edit-mode toggle.
- Tab + Cursor Drag: mode switching pie menu.
- Accent/Grave: for 3D view pie menu.
- F3: Search
- 1..3, Shift-1..3: Edit mesh vertex/edge/face toggle.
Other minor changes were made, however they aren't part of the design.
- Ctrl-Shift-S: Image editor Save-As (was F3)
- Ctrl-Alt-R: Repeat history (was F3)
All keyboard events were sending double key events (including modifiers)
when xinput was enabled with gnome (causing much confusion!).
I cant test if XIM works,
but this isn't useful to send double events, so disabling for now.
Since we are only creating this and never updating, there is no need for
the original approach with the individual data to be updated.
Note we only populate the GPU data when binding the UBO, so we can in the
future easily create the UBOs in a separate thread than the main drawing one.
Also at the moment animated materials are not working. To fix that we need
to free/tag for free the GPUMaterials in BKE_material_eval.
