images (like used for rendering icons).
When working during Orange on new render pipeline, I've left this topic
alone for a while... subpixel precision testing is very time consuming and
needs concentration for a while. :)
This commit brings back precision as it was for 2.41. Below a short
explanation of the solved issues.
- the window matrix for rendering is kept constant during all OSA passes,
this to ensure clipping happens for each pass identically.
- a subpixel offset is only applied on filling in the z-buffer
- this offset is inverse corrected for shadepixel code, only on 2 places
Another nasty issue is that for filtered rendering (gauss etc), the tiles
(or entire image) is temporally increased 2 pixel in size. This caused a
'dark' (or sky color) edge on the rendering. During Orange that was solved
with a hardcoded clipping offset value, which only corrected for larger
pictures (like > 500 pixels in size).
Now this clipping offset is correctly calculated, based on render size.
Last issue: the view border in 3d window was calculated using integers,
giving small errors in display too. Now it uses float, so visually the
view border is more close to what a render shows.
