# Objective
`RenderLayers` was marketed as being unlimited in the Bevy 0.14 release
notes, but the most obvious constructor doesn't actually support
unlimited layers.
We should explicitly document this.
## Solution
Add some docs mentioning the limit and pointing the user to `with` or
`from_layers` if they need an arbitrary number of layers.
# Objective
Fixes#14782
## Solution
Enable the lint and fix all upcoming hints (`--fix`). Also tried to
figure out the false-positive (see review comment). Maybe split this PR
up into multiple parts where only the last one enables the lint, so some
can already be merged resulting in less many files touched / less
potential for merge conflicts?
Currently, there are some cases where it might be easier to read the
code with the qualifier, so perhaps remove the import of it and adapt
its cases? In the current stage it's just a plain adoption of the
suggestions in order to have a base to discuss.
## Testing
`cargo clippy` and `cargo run -p ci` are happy.
# Objective
currently if we use an image with the wrong sampler type in a material,
wgpu panics with an invalid texture format. turn this into a warning and
fail more gracefully.
## Solution
the expected sampler type is specified in the AsBindGroup derive, so we
can just check the image sampler is what it should be.
i am not totally sure about the mapping of image sampler type to
#[sampler(type)], i assumed:
```
"filtering" => [ TextureSampleType::Float { filterable: true } ],
"non_filtering" => [
TextureSampleType::Float { filterable: false },
TextureSampleType::Sint,
TextureSampleType::Uint,
],
"comparison" => [ TextureSampleType::Depth ],
```
This reverts commit e37bf18e2b, added in
#14784.
# Objective
The PR was fine, but the work was very poorly motivated and the
resulting API is not actually very nice. The actual user need is likely
better addressed by #14825.
## Solution
Revert the offending PR.
# Objective
Fixes#14521.
## Solution
Added to methods to the VIsibility.
```rs
is_visible() -> Result<bool, String>
```
and
```rs
visbility_from_bool(bool) -> Visibility
```
## Testing
Ran
* `cargo run -p ci -- lints`
* `cargo run -p ci -- test`
* `cargo run -p ci -- compile`
it seems to be working.
However I got few error messages :`ERROR bevy_log: could not set global
logger and tracing subscriber as they are already set. Consider
disabling LogPlugin` in `cargo run -p ci -- test`, even though all test
passed. I'm not sure if that's expected behaviour
Ps. I'm new to contributing, please correct me if anything is wrong
# Objective
`MeshVertexAttributeId` is currently a wrapper type around a `usize`.
Application developers are exposed to the `usize` whenever they need to
define a new custom vertex attribute, which requires them to generate a
random `usize` ID to avoid clashes with any other custom vertex
attributes in the same application. As the range of a `usize` is
platform dependent, developers on 64-bit machines may inadvertently
generate random values which will fail to compile for a 32-bit target.
The use of a `usize` here encourages non-portable behaviour and should
be replaced with a fixed width type.
## Solution
In this PR I have changed the ID type from `usize` to `u64`, but equally
a `u32` could be used at the risk of breaking some extant non-portable
programs and increasing the chance of an ID collision.
# Objective
- Add "Available on crate feature <image format> only." for docs of
image format related types/functions
- Add warning "WARN bevy_render::texture::image: feature "<image
format>" is not enabled" on load attempt
- Fixes#13468 .
## Solution
- Added #[cfg(feature = "<image format>")] for types and warn!("feature
\"<image format>\" is not enabled"); for ImageFormat enum conversions
## Testing
ran reproducing example from issue #13468 and saw in logs
`WARN bevy_render::texture::image: feature "exr" is not enabled`
generated docs with command `RUSTDOCFLAGS="-Zunstable-options
--cfg=docsrs" cargo +nightly doc --workspace --all-features --no-deps

## Migration Guide
Image format related entities are feature gated, if there are
compilation errors about unknown names there are some of features in
list (`exr`, `hdr`, `basis-universal`, `png`, `dds`, `tga`, `jpeg`,
`bmp`, `ktx2`, `webp` and `pnm`) should be added.
# Objective
`World::clear_entities` is ambiguous with all of the other systems in
`RenderSet::Cleanup` because it access `&mut World`.
## Solution
I've added another system set variant, and made sure that this runs
after everything else.
## Testing
The `ambiguity_detection` example
## Migration Guide
`World::clear_entities` is now part of `RenderSet::PostCleanup` rather
than `RenderSet::Cleanup`. Your cleanup systems should likely stay in
`RenderSet::Cleanup`.
## Additional context
Spotted when working on #7386: this was responsible for a large number
of ambiguities.
This should be removed if / when #14449 is merged: there's no need to
call `clear_entities` at all if the rendering world is retained!
# Objective
- Fixes#14697
## Solution
This PR modifies the existing `all_tuples!` macro to optionally accept a
`#[doc(fake_variadic)]` attribute in its input. If the attribute is
present, each invocation of the impl macro gets the correct attributes
(i.e. the first impl receives `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` while the other
impls are hidden using `#[doc(hidden)]`.
Impls for the empty tuple (unit type) are left untouched (that's what
the [standard
library](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.PartialEq.html#impl-PartialEq-for-())
and
[serde](https://docs.rs/serde/latest/serde/trait.Serialize.html#impl-Serialize-for-())
do).
To work around https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8811 and to get
impls on re-exports to correctly show up as variadic, `--cfg docsrs_dep`
is passed when building the docs for the toplevel `bevy` crate.
`#[doc(fake_variadic)]` only works on tuples and fn pointers, so impls
for structs like `AnyOf<(T1, T2, ..., Tn)>` are unchanged.
## Testing
I built the docs locally using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs'
RUSTFLAGS='--cfg docsrs_dep' cargo +nightly doc --no-deps --workspace`
and checked the documentation page of a trait both in its original crate
and the re-exported version in `bevy`.
The description should correctly mention for how many tuple items the
trait is implemented.
I added `rustc-args` for docs.rs to the `bevy` crate, I hope there
aren't any other notable crates that re-export `#[doc(fake_variadic)]`
traits.

## Original Description
<details>
Resolves#14697
Submitting as a draft for now, very WIP.
Unfortunately, the docs don't show the variadics nicely when looking at
reexported items.
For example:
`bevy_ecs::bundle::Bundle` correctly shows the variadic impl:
![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/90bf8af1-1d1f-4714-9143-cdd3d0199998)
while `bevy::ecs::bundle::Bundle` (the reexport) shows all the impls
(not good):
![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/439c428e-f712-465b-bec2-481f7bf5870b)
Built using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs' cargo +nightly doc --workspace
--no-deps` (`--no-deps` because of wgpu-core).
Maybe I missed something or this is a limitation in the *totally not
private* `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` thingy. In any case I desperately need
some sleep now :))
</details>
Upgrading to WGPU 22.
Needs `naga_oil` to upgrade first, I've got a fork that compiles but
fails tests, so until that's fixed and the crate is officially
updated/released this will be blocked.

# Objective
Fixes#14365
## Migration Guide
- When using the iterator returned by `Mesh::attributes` or
`Mesh::attributes_mut` the first value of the tuple is not the
`MeshVertexAttribute` instead of `MeshVertexAttributeId`. To access the
`MeshVertexAttributeId` use the `MeshVertexAttribute.id` field.

# Objective
- Add custom images as cursors
- Fixes#9557
## Solution
- Change cursor type to accommodate both native and image cursors
- I don't really like this solution because I couldn't use
`Handle<Image>` directly. I would need to import `bevy_assets` and that
causes a circular dependency. Alternatively we could use winit's
`CustomCursor` smart pointers, but that seems hard because the event
loop is needed to create those and is not easily accessable for users.
So now I need to copy around rgba buffers which is sad.
- I use a cache because especially on the web creating cursor images is
really slow
- Sorry to #14196 for yoinking, I just wanted to make a quick solution
for myself and thought that I should probably share it too.
Update:
- Now uses `Handle<Image>`, reads rgba data in `bevy_render` and uses
resources to send the data to `bevy_winit`, where the final cursors are
created.
## Testing
- Added example which works fine at least on Linux Wayland (winit side
has been tested with all platforms).
- I haven't tested if the url cursor works.
## Migration Guide
- `CursorIcon` is no longer a field in `Window`, but a separate
component can be inserted to a window entity. It has been changed to an
enum that can hold custom images in addition to system icons.
- `Cursor` is renamed to `CursorOptions` and `cursor` field of `Window`
is renamed to `cursor_options`
- `CursorIcon` is renamed to `SystemCursorIcon`

# Objective
I want to get the visual depth (after view proj matrix stuff) of the
object beneath my cursor.
Even when having a write-back of the depth texture, you would still need
to convert the NDC depth to a logical value.
## Solution
This is done on shader-side by [this
function](e6261b0f5f/crates/bevy_pbr/src/render/view_transformations.wgsl (L151)),
which I ported over to the cpu-side.
I also added `world_to_viewport_with_depth` to get a `Vec3` instead of
`Vec2`.
---
If anyone knows a smarter solution to get the visual depth instead of
going `screen -> viewport ray -> screen`, please let me know :>
# Objective
- Fix#14295
## Solution
- Early out when `GFBD::get_index_and_compare_data` returns None.
## Testing
- Tested on a selection of examples including `many_foxes` and
`3d_shapes`.
- Resolved the original issue in `bevy_vector_shapes`.
# Objective
- Fix issue #2611
## Solution
- Add `--generate-link-to-definition` to all the `rustdoc-args` arrays
in the `Cargo.toml`s (for docs.rs)
- Add `--generate-link-to-definition` to the `RUSTDOCFLAGS` environment
variable in the docs workflow (for dev-docs.bevyengine.org)
- Document all the workspace crates in the docs workflow (needed because
otherwise only the source code of the `bevy` package will be included,
making the argument useless)
- I think this also fixes#3662, since it fixes the bug on
dev-docs.bevyengine.org, while on docs.rs it has been fixed for a while
on their side.
---
## Changelog
- The source code viewer on docs.rs now includes links to the
definitions.
# Objective
- `bevy_render` depends on `image 0.25` but uses `image::ImageReader`
which was added only in `image 0.25.2`
- users that have `image 0.25` in their `Cargo.lock` and update to the
latest `bevy_render` may thus get a compilation due to this (at least I
did)
## Solution
- Properly set the correct minimum version of `image` that `bevy_render`
depends on.
# Objective
Fix a memory leak in `TextureCache` caused by the internal HashMap never
having unused entries cleared.
This isn't a giant memory leak, given the unused entries are simply
empty vectors. Though, if someone goes and resizes a window a bunch, it
can lead to hundreds/thousands of TextureDescriptor keys adding up in
the hashmap – which isn't ideal.
## Solution
- Only retain hashmap entries that still have textures.
- I also added an `is_empty()` method to `TextureCache`, which is useful
for 3rd-party higher-level caches that might have individual caches by
view entity or texture type, for example.
## Testing
- Verified the examples still work (this is a trivial change)
# Objective
- Made `ViewUniform` fields public so that 3rd-parties can create this
uniform. This is useful for custom pipelines that use custom views (e.g.
views buffered by a particular amount, for example).
# Objective
- It's possible to have errors in a draw command, but these errors are
ignored
## Solution
- Return a result with the error
## Changelog
Renamed `RenderCommandResult::Failure` to `RenderCommandResult::Skip`
Added a `reason` string parameter to `RenderCommandResult::Failure`
## Migration Guide
If you were using `RenderCommandResult::Failure` to just ignore an error
and retry later, use `RenderCommandResult::Skip` instead.
This wasn't intentional, but this PR should also help with
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12660 since we can turn a few
unwraps into error messages now.

Currently `TextureFormat::Astc` can't be programmatically constructed
without importing wgpu in addition to bevy.
# Objective
Allow programmatic construction of `TextureFormat::Astc` with no
additional imports required.
## Solution
Exported the two component enums `AstcBlock` and `AstcChannel` used in
`TextureFormat::Astc` construction.
## Testing
I did not test this, the change seemed pretty safe. :)
# Objective
- The `RenderTarget` type wasn't being registered, and the `target`
field of `Camera` was marked as ignored, so it wasn't inspectable by
editors.
## Solution
- Remove `#[reflect(ignore)]` from the field
- I've also reordered the `Default` impl of `RenderTarget` because it
looked like it belonged to a different type
Switches `Msaa` from being a globally configured resource to a per
camera view component.
Closes#7194
# Objective
Allow individual views to describe their own MSAA settings. For example,
when rendering to different windows or to different parts of the same
view.
## Solution
Make `Msaa` a component that is required on all camera bundles.
## Testing
Ran a variety of examples to ensure that nothing broke.
TODO:
- [ ] Make sure android still works per previous comment in
`extract_windows`.
---
## Migration Guide
`Msaa` is no longer configured as a global resource, and should be
specified on each spawned camera if a non-default setting is desired.

# Objective
- The current default viewport crashes bevy due to a wgpu validation
error, this PR fixes that
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14355
## Solution
- `Viewport::default()` now returns a 1x1 viewport
## Testing
- I modified the `3d_viewport_to_world` example to use
`Viewport::default()`, and it works as expected (only the top-left pixel
is rendered)
# Objective
- `CameraRenderGraph` is not inspectable via reflection, but should be
(the name of the configured render graph should be visible in editors,
etc.)
## Solution
- Derive and reflect `Debug` for `CameraRenderGraph`
This commit uses the [`offset-allocator`] crate to combine vertex and
index arrays from different meshes into single buffers. Since the
primary source of `wgpu` overhead is from validation and synchronization
when switching buffers, this significantly improves Bevy's rendering
performance on many scenes.
This patch is a more flexible version of #13218, which also used slabs.
Unlike #13218, which used slabs of a fixed size, this commit implements
slabs that start small and can grow. In addition to reducing memory
usage, supporting slab growth reduces the number of vertex and index
buffer switches that need to happen during rendering, leading to
improved performance. To prevent pathological fragmentation behavior,
slabs are capped to a maximum size, and mesh arrays that are too large
get their own dedicated slabs.
As an additional improvement over #13218, this commit allows the
application to customize all allocator heuristics. The
`MeshAllocatorSettings` resource contains values that adjust the minimum
and maximum slab sizes, the cutoff point at which meshes get their own
dedicated slabs, and the rate at which slabs grow. Hopefully-sensible
defaults have been chosen for each value.
Unfortunately, WebGL 2 doesn't support the *base vertex* feature, which
is necessary to pack vertex arrays from different meshes into the same
buffer. `wgpu` represents this restriction as the downlevel flag
`BASE_VERTEX`. This patch detects that bit and ensures that all vertex
buffers get dedicated slabs on that platform. Even on WebGL 2, though,
we can combine all *index* arrays into single buffers to reduce buffer
changes, and we do so.
The following measurements are on Bistro:
Overall frame time improves from 8.74 ms to 5.53 ms (1.58x speedup):

## Migration Guide
### Changed
* Vertex and index buffers for meshes may now be packed alongside other
buffers, for performance.
* `GpuMesh` has been renamed to `RenderMesh`, to reflect the fact that
it no longer directly stores handles to GPU objects.
* Because meshes no longer have their own vertex and index buffers, the
responsibility for the buffers has moved from `GpuMesh` (now called
`RenderMesh`) to the `MeshAllocator` resource. To access the vertex data
for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_vertex_slice`. To access the index
data for a mesh, use `MeshAllocator::mesh_index_slice`.

# Objective
The docs on SpatialBundle's pub const constructors mention that one is
"visible" when it's actually inherited, which afaik means it's
conditional on its parent's visibility.
I feel it's more correct like this.
_Also I'm seeing how making a PR from github.dev works hopefully nothing
weird happens_
# Objective
- Fixes overflow when calling `RenderLayers::iter_layers` on layers of
the form `k * 64 - 1`
- Causes a panic in debug mode, and an infinite iterator in release mode
## Solution
- Use `u64::checked_shr` instead of `>>=`
## Testing
- Added a test case for this: `render_layer_iter_no_overflow`
# Objective
- Bevy currently has lot of invalid intra-doc links, let's fix them!
- Also make CI test them, to avoid future regressions.
- Helps with #1983 (but doesn't fix it, as there could still be explicit
links to docs.rs that are broken)
## Solution
- Make `cargo r -p ci -- doc-check` check fail on warnings (could also
be changed to just some specific lints)
- Manually fix all the warnings (note that in some cases it was unclear
to me what the fix should have been, I'll try to highlight them in a
self-review)

# Objective
Fix#14146
## Solution
Expansion of #13323 , excluded Adreno 730 and earlier.
## Testing
Tested on android device(Adreno 730) that used to crash
# Objective
Allow random sampling from the surfaces of triangle meshes.
## Solution
This has two parts.
Firstly, rendering meshes can now yield their collections of triangles
through a method `Mesh::triangles`. This has signature
```rust
pub fn triangles(&self) -> Result<Vec<Triangle3d>, MeshTrianglesError> { //... }
```
and fails in a variety of cases — the most obvious of these is that the
mesh must have either the `TriangleList` or `TriangleStrip` topology,
and the others correspond to malformed vertex or triangle-index data.
With that in hand, we have the second piece, which is
`UniformMeshSampler`, which is a `Vec3`-valued
[distribution](https://docs.rs/rand/latest/rand/distributions/trait.Distribution.html)
that samples uniformly from collections of triangles. It caches the
triangles' distribution of areas so that after its initial setup,
sampling is allocation-free. It is constructed via
`UniformMeshSampler::try_new`, which looks like this:
```rust
pub fn try_new<T: Into<Vec<Triangle3d>>>(triangles: T) -> Result<Self, ZeroAreaMeshError> { //... }
```
It fails if the collection of triangles has zero area.
The sum of these parts means that you can sample random points from a
mesh as follows:
```rust
let triangles = my_mesh.triangles().unwrap();
let mut rng = StdRng::seed_from_u64(8765309);
let distribution = UniformMeshSampler::try_new(triangles).unwrap();
// 10000 random points from the surface of my_mesh:
let sample_points: Vec<Vec3> = distribution.sample_iter(&mut rng).take(10000).collect();
```
## Testing
Tested by instantiating meshes and sampling as demonstrated above.
---
## Changelog
- Added `Mesh::triangles` method to get a collection of triangles from a
mesh.
- Added `UniformMeshSampler` to `bevy_math::sampling`. This is a
distribution which allows random sampling over collections of triangles
(such as those provided through meshes).
---
## Discussion
### Design decisions
The main thing here was making sure to have a good separation between
the parts of this in `bevy_render` and in `bevy_math`. Getting the
triangles from a mesh seems like a reasonable step after adding
`Triangle3d` to `bevy_math`, so I decided to make all of the random
sampling operate at that level, with the fallible conversion to
triangles doing most of the work.
Notably, the sampler could be called something else that reflects that
its input is a collection of triangles, but if/when we add other kinds
of meshes to `bevy_math` (e.g. half-edge meshes), the fact that
`try_new` takes an `impl Into<Vec<Triangle3d>>` means that those meshes
just need to satisfy that trait bound in order to work immediately with
this sampling functionality. In that case, the result would just be
something like this:
```rust
let dist = UniformMeshSampler::try_new(mesh).unwrap();
```
I think this highlights that most of the friction is really just from
extracting data from `Mesh`.
It's maybe worth mentioning also that "collection of triangles"
(`Vec<Triangle3d>`) sits downstream of any other kind of triangle mesh,
since the topology connecting the triangles has been effectively erased,
which makes an `Into<Vec<Triangle3d>>` trait bound seem all the more
natural to me.

# Objective
The `AssetReader` trait allows customizing the behavior of fetching
bytes for an `AssetPath`, and expects implementors to return `dyn
AsyncRead + AsyncSeek`. This gives implementors of `AssetLoader` great
flexibility to tightly integrate their asset loading behavior with the
asynchronous task system.
However, almost all implementors of `AssetLoader` don't use the async
functionality at all, and just call `AsyncReadExt::read_to_end(&mut
Vec<u8>)`. This is incredibly inefficient, as this method repeatedly
calls `poll_read` on the trait object, filling the vector 32 bytes at a
time. At my work we have assets that are hundreds of megabytes which
makes this a meaningful overhead.
## Solution
Turn the `Reader` type alias into an actual trait, with a provided
method `read_to_end`. This provided method should be more efficient than
the existing extension method, as the compiler will know the underlying
type of `Reader` when generating this function, which removes the
repeated dynamic dispatches and allows the compiler to make further
optimizations after inlining. Individual implementors are able to
override the provided implementation -- for simple asset readers that
just copy bytes from one buffer to another, this allows removing a large
amount of overhead from the provided implementation.
Now that `Reader` is an actual trait, I also improved the ergonomics for
implementing `AssetReader`. Currently, implementors are expected to box
their reader and return it as a trait object, which adds unnecessary
boilerplate to implementations. This PR changes that trait method to
return a pseudo trait alias, which allows implementors to return `impl
Reader` instead of `Box<dyn Reader>`. Now, the boilerplate for boxing
occurs in `ErasedAssetReader`.
## Testing
I made identical changes to my company's fork of bevy. Our app, which
makes heavy use of `read_to_end` for asset loading, still worked
properly after this. I am not aware if we have a more systematic way of
testing asset loading for correctness.
---
## Migration Guide
The trait method `bevy_asset::io::AssetReader::read` (and `read_meta`)
now return an opaque type instead of a boxed trait object. Implementors
of these methods should change the type signatures appropriately
```rust
impl AssetReader for MyReader {
// Before
async fn read<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> Result<Box<Reader<'a>>, AssetReaderError> {
let reader = // construct a reader
Box::new(reader) as Box<Reader<'a>>
}
// After
async fn read<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> Result<impl Reader + 'a, AssetReaderError> {
// create a reader
}
}
```
`bevy::asset::io::Reader` is now a trait, rather than a type alias for a
trait object. Implementors of `AssetLoader::load` will need to adjust
the method signature accordingly
```rust
impl AssetLoader for MyLoader {
async fn load<'a>(
&'a self,
// Before:
reader: &'a mut bevy::asset::io::Reader,
// After:
reader: &'a mut dyn bevy::asset::io::Reader,
_: &'a Self::Settings,
load_context: &'a mut LoadContext<'_>,
) -> Result<Self::Asset, Self::Error> {
}

Additionally, implementors of `AssetReader` that return a type
implementing `futures_io::AsyncRead` and `AsyncSeek` might need to
explicitly implement `bevy::asset::io::Reader` for that type.
```rust
impl bevy::asset::io::Reader for MyAsyncReadAndSeek {}
```
# Objective
It's not always obvious what the default value for `RenderLayers`
represents. It is documented, but since it's an implementation of a
trait method the documentation may or may not be shown depending on the
IDE.
## Solution
Add documentation to the `none` method that explicitly calls out the
difference.

# Objective
The `BuildChildren` and `BuildWorldChildren` traits are mostly
identical, so I decided to try and merge them. I'm not sure of the
history, maybe they were added before GATs existed.
## Solution
- Add an associated type to `BuildChildren` which reflects the prior
differences between the `BuildChildren` and `BuildWorldChildren` traits.
- Add `ChildBuild` trait that is the bounds for
`BuildChildren::Builder`, with impls for `ChildBuilder` and
`WorldChildBuilder`.
- Remove `BuildWorldChildren` trait and replace it with an impl of
`BuildChildren` for `EntityWorldMut`.
## Testing
I ran several of the examples that use entity hierarchies, mainly UI.

# Objective
Allow combining render layers with a more-ergonomic syntax than
`RenderLayers::from_iter(a.iter().chain(b.iter()))`.
## Solution
Add the `or` operation (and corresponding `const` method) to allow
computing the union of a set of render layers. While we're here, also
added `and` and `xor` operations. Someone might find them useful
## Testing
Added a simple unit test.
As reported in #14004, many third-party plugins, such as Hanabi, enqueue
entities that don't have meshes into render phases. However, the
introduction of indirect mode added a dependency on mesh-specific data,
breaking this workflow. This is because GPU preprocessing requires that
the render phases manage indirect draw parameters, which don't apply to
objects that aren't meshes. The existing code skips over binned entities
that don't have indirect draw parameters, which causes the rendering to
be skipped for such objects.
To support this workflow, this commit adds a new field,
`non_mesh_items`, to `BinnedRenderPhase`. This field contains a simple
list of (bin key, entity) pairs. After drawing batchable and unbatchable
objects, the non-mesh items are drawn one after another. Bevy itself
doesn't enqueue any items into this list; it exists solely for the
application and/or plugins to use.
Additionally, this commit switches the asset ID in the standard bin keys
to be an untyped asset ID rather than that of a mesh. This allows more
flexibility, allowing bins to be keyed off any type of asset.
This patch adds a new example, `custom_phase_item`, which simultaneously
serves to demonstrate how to use this new feature and to act as a
regression test so this doesn't break again.
Fixes#14004.
## Changelog
### Added
* `BinnedRenderPhase` now contains a `non_mesh_items` field for plugins
to add custom items to.
# Objective
Numerous people have been confused that Bevy runs slowly, when the
reason is that the `llvmpipe` software rendered is being used.
## Solution
Printing a warning could reduce the confusion.
# Objective
- Fixes#13728
## Solution
- add a new feature `smaa_luts`. if enables, it also enables `ktx2` and
`zstd`. if not, it doesn't load the files but use placeholders instead
- adds all the resources needed in the same places that system that uses
them are added.
# Objective
In Bevy 0.13, `BackgroundColor` simply tinted the image of any
`UiImage`. This was confusing: in every other case (e.g. Text), this
added a solid square behind the element. #11165 changed this, but
removed `BackgroundColor` from `ImageBundle` to avoid confusion, since
the semantic meaning had changed.
However, this resulted in a serious UX downgrade / inconsistency, as
this behavior was no longer part of the bundle (unlike for `TextBundle`
or `NodeBundle`), leaving users with a relatively frustrating upgrade
path.
Additionally, adding both `BackgroundColor` and `UiImage` resulted in a
bizarre effect, where the background color was seemingly ignored as it
was covered by a solid white placeholder image.
Fixes#13969.
## Solution
Per @viridia's design:
> - if you don't specify a background color, it's transparent.
> - if you don't specify an image color, it's white (because it's a
multiplier).
> - if you don't specify an image, no image is drawn.
> - if you specify both a background color and an image color, they are
independent.
> - the background color is drawn behind the image (in whatever pixels
are transparent)
As laid out by @benfrankel, this involves:
1. Changing the default `UiImage` to use a transparent texture but a
pure white tint.
2. Adding `UiImage::solid_color` to quickly set placeholder images.
3. Changing the default `BorderColor` and `BackgroundColor` to
transparent.
4. Removing the default overrides for these values in the other assorted
UI bundles.
5. Adding `BackgroundColor` back to `ImageBundle` and `ButtonBundle`.
6. Adding a 1x1 `Image::transparent`, which can be accessed from
`Assets<Image>` via the `TRANSPARENT_IMAGE_HANDLE` constant.
Huge thanks to everyone who helped out with the design in the linked
issue and [the Discord
thread](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1255209923890118697/1255209999278280844):
this was very much a joint design.
@cart helped me figure out how to set the UiImage's default texture to a
transparent 1x1 image, which is a much nicer fix.
## Testing
I've checked the examples modified by this PR, and the `ui` example as
well just to be sure.
## Migration Guide
- `BackgroundColor` no longer tints the color of images in `ImageBundle`
or `ButtonBundle`. Set `UiImage::color` to tint images instead.
- The default texture for `UiImage` is now a transparent white square.
Use `UiImage::solid_color` to quickly draw debug images.
- The default value for `BackgroundColor` and `BorderColor` is now
transparent. Set the color to white manually to return to previous
behavior.
# Objective
- Make primitive meshing behavior consisten across platforms
- Avoid using sizes bigger than `u32` since these aren't even supported
for meshes
## Solution
- Use `u32` instead of `usize` for resolution/subdivisions/segments/etc
fields
---
## Changelog
- Change resolutions in primitive mesh builders from `usize` to `u32`
## Migration Guide
- All primitive mesh builders now take `u32` instead of `usize` for
their resolution/subdivision/segment counts
# Objective
- Primitives should not use poorly defined types like `usize`,
especially since they are serializable
## Solution
- Use `u32` instead of `usize`
- The generic array types do not need to be changed because this size is
not actually stored or serialized anywhere
---
## Migration Guide
- `RegularPolygon` now uses `u32` instead of `usize` for the number of
sides
