- Separate the Post Processes settings into sub panel.
- Rename "Viewport Anti-Aliasing" to sampling & super-sampling as it also reduce the noise of other effects.
- Remove Temporal Anti-Aliasing toggle and make it always active unless the number of samples is 1.
This required some small changes to the data display shaders so that they match the way the object mode renders them.
Strangely enough, I had to remove the normal attribute from the display code because it was being not bound as soon as I created another rendering call in object mode. The problem may be deeper but I did not have time for this so I derive the normal from the sphere pos.
This adds TAA to eevee. The only thing important to note is that we need to keep the unjittered depth buffer so that the other engines are composited correctly.
The problem was that orthographic views can have hit position that are negative. Thus we cannot encode the hit in the sign of the Z component.
The workaround is to store the hit position in screenspace. But since we are using floating point render target, we are loosing quite a bit of precision.
TODO: use RGBA16 instead of RGBA16F. But that means encoding the pdf value somehow.
You can change the amount of samples in the user preferences. You do not need to restart blender to see the effect in the new viewport.
This adds another Multisample Framebuffer and textures (so even more memory required).
It works by blitting the default_fb to the multisample_fb each time the renderer need to render one or more "wire" pass.
It it then blit back to the default_fb so that the rest of pipeline is working as expected.
We COULD lower the GPU memory / bandwidth usage to render everything to the same multisample fbo and change the logic depending on if MSAA is enabled or not, but I think it's a bit too much work for now.
Adds a FXAA for smoothing out the extracted outlines.
The Post Process Anti Aliasing is only done on the Alpha channel of the outlines.
Because of that we need to add bleed the outline color out of the silouhette so the AA'd alpha can blend the right color and not pick black when the alpha is smoothed out of the silhouette.
Also because of the AA needs to have clear contrast to work with, I decided to ditch the "bluring" or the occluded outlines.
The FXAA adds an overhead of 0.17ms but we gain back 0.22ms * 4 = 0.88ms by removing the blur.
The FXAA Implementation is from Corey Richardson (cmr) (D2717). I had to modify it a bit to only filter the alpha channel.
This introduce some little artifacts on the border of edges because some pixel with very low opacity does not get discarded and then occlude the face rendered behind if it has not been drawn yet.
To fix this. I added an offset in the geometry shader for the edge fixup. This make the artifact only visible on the border of the object if there is a very dense wire region. It's only visible in edge select mode since vertex and face center also hides the artifacts.
We can enable this only if AA is enabled but for now it's always enabled.
Textures were bound once. But since it was not unbound it's bind_num would not change and considered still bound next time a shader needed it.
Fix T52866
Fix T52855
Partial revert of 9068c0743e.
This commit tried to do two things:
(1) Fix UBO binding logic [good]
(2) "Improve" texture binding logic [bad]
Don't ever mix different fixes and refactors in the same commit.
Iterate over invisible objects too, so lamps can still lit the scene.
Also, now you can use a collection to set an object to invisible, not
only to visible.
For example:
Scene > Master collection > bedroom > furniture
Scene > View Layer > bedroom (visible)
> furniture (invisible)
The View Layer has two linked collections, bedroom and furniture.
This setup will make the furniture collection invisible.
Note: Unlike what was suggested on D2849, this does not make collection
visibility influence camera visibility. I will keep this as a separate
patch.

Ubo needs to be rebound every times the shader changes.
This simplify the logic a bit.
Also modify texture binding logic to potentially reuse more already bound textures.
This fix the crappy binding logic.
Note the current method is doing a lot of useless binding. We should somewhat order the texture so that reused textures are already bound most of the time.
