Will help entering sculpt mode on file load by making it possible
to fully initialize sculpt session. The goal is to make sure PBVH
exists since the very beginning of file open (missing PBVH is a
reason why object is not visible before first stroke).
This is not enough yet to fully solve the issue, since entering
sculpt mode tags object for Copy-on-Write update, which frees
PBVH.
It was a bit odd that the scene was stored per window but not the view
layer. The reasoning was that you would use different view layers for
different tasks. This is still possible, but it's more predictable to
switch them both explicitly, and with child window support manually
syncing the view layers between multiple windows is no longer needed
as often.
* Main windows show a topbar and statusbar, and select a workspace and
scene. They are created with Window > New Main Window.
* Child windows do not show a topbar or statusbar. These follow the
workspace and scene of their parent main window. Created with Window >
New Window or View > Duplicate Area into New Window.
* The purpose of this change is to support multi monitor setups where you
just want to put more editors on the other monitors. Without multiple
topbars and statusbars, working within a single workspace and scene.
Creating multiple main windows is intended to be a concious choice to
do different tasks in different workspaces and scenes.
* Note these changes do not currently affect how the operating system
treats the windows.
* When changing the workspace, the layout in all child windows changes.
This makes sense if we consider child windows to be just a way to
extend the main window across more monitors. In some case it may be
useful to keep the same layout though, we can add an option for this
depending on user feedback.
This is the same approach as 98a0bcd425
applied to soft body simulation. In short, CoW copies share the point cache,
and treat it as read-only except when the depsgraph is active.
This prevents having to wrap each call to sbFree() in an if(ob->soft)
condition and assign ob->soft = NULL after calling.
Furthermore, passing `Object *` allows us to change freeing behaviour
depending on whether the object is an evaluated copy or an original (not
done in this commit yet).
This unifies two almost-identical functions at the expense of having to
add one single 'flag' value at one call.
This makes copy_softbody() aware of the source/dest objects, allowing it
to make a distinction between doing depsgraph evaluation copies and real
object copies. This will be used in an upcoming commit to ensure that
the pointcache is shared between CoW copies, similar to the current
approach for rigidbody simulation.
Operators ignored edges along the screen-layout bounds. They should've ignored
those along window bounds instead.
Although the global areas can not be joined/split, the adjacent areas can. So
the menu should still be shown.
Had to change the return value of area joining operator, so that an error report
can show up when trying to join over a global area edge. Think this is fine to
do, but you never know with such stuff.
Preferably we'd gray out the "Join Area" item in the menu when clicking on the
edge of a global area. Unfotunately the operator uses coordinates passed as
operator properties to find the right edge/areas, which we cannot access from
the poll callback.
Added a compile directive in order to test SH4 in stead of SH2Win.
For now I disabled SH4, it is a bit more clear, but has a small
performance impact. Will check later for a better approach
There is now a manual refresh button on the panel to update the list
of objects in case it changes, and it also gets refreshed when changing
the collection or toggling the use count option.
This is a bit more manual but the previous code of refreshing the
list while evaluating the depsgraph was unreliable.
This also fixes it to take properly take into account visibility, and
to work with linked collections for which index writing was missing.
Access to main database is actually rarely needed, but some custom
'apply' functions do need it (like Collections' overriding of objects or
children collections).
To prevent the pointcache from being copied-on-write too (and requiring
copying back), the cache is now shared between the original and
evaluated scenes. Reading from the cache is always allowed; running the
sim and writing to the cache is only allowed when the depsgraph is
active.
Some pointers have moved from RigidBodyWorld (RBO) to
RigidBodyWorldShared (RBOS). writefile.c copies some pointers back from
RBOS to RBO so that the file can still be opened on older Blenders
without crashing on a segfault.
The RigidBodyWorldShared struct is written to the blend file, because it
refers to the PointCache ID block.
The RigidObjectShared struct is runtime-only, and thus not saved to the
blend file.
An RNA getter-function is used to hide the new 'shared' pointer. As a
result the Python API hasn't changed.

Key shortcuts and explanation about how to use the tool should go to the
status bar, but other info can in the header so it's near where the user
is working. This distinction has not been made yet for all operators.
