# 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
Tight, in-frame generation, re-parenting, despawning, etc., UI
operations could sometime lead taffy to panic (invalid SlotMap key used)
when an entity with an invalid state later despawned.
Fixes#12403
## Solution
Move the `remove_entities` call after children updates.
## Testing
`sickle_ui` had a case that always caused the panic. Tested before this
change, after this change, and before the change again to make sure the
error is there without the fix. The fix worked. Test steps and used
commit described in issue #12403.
I have also ran every bevy UI example, though none of them deal with
entity re-parenting or removal. No regression detected on them.
Tested on Windows only.
# Objective
- Fixes#13807
## Solution
- Before this pr we antialiased between 0.5 and -0.5. This pr changes
things to antialias between 0.25 and -0.25. I tried slightly larger
ranges, but the edge between the boxes still showed. I'm not 100% sure
this is the correct solution, but from what I could find the range you
use is more art than science.
## Testing
- Ran rounded_borders example, the code in the linked issue, and the
testing example from #12702.
---
## Changelog
- reduce antialiasing in ui shader.
# Objective
One thing missing from the new Color implementation in 0.14 is the
ability to easily convert to a u8 representation of the rgb color.
(note this is a redo of PR https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/13739
as I needed to move the source branch
## Solution
I have added to_u8_array and to_u8_array_no_alpha to a new trait called
ColorToPacked to mirror the f32 conversions in ColorToComponents and
implemented the new trait for Srgba and LinearRgba.
To go with those I also added matching from_u8... functions and
converted a couple of cases that used ad-hoc implementations of that
conversion to use these.
After discussion on Discord of the experience of using the API I renamed
Color::linear to Color::to_linear, as without that it looks like a
constructor (like Color::rgb).
I also added to_srgba which is the other commonly converted to type of
color (for UI and 2D) to match to_linear.
Removed a redundant extra implementation of to_f32_array for LinearColor
as it is also supplied in ColorToComponents (I'm surprised that's
allowed?)
## Testing
Ran all tests and manually tested.
Added to_and_from_u8 to linear_rgba::tests
## Changelog
visible change is Color::linear becomes Color::to_linear.

# Objective
- Fixes#13687
## Solution
- Text rendering in UI is still dependent on the `PrimaryWIndow`
- implements #10559 for text rendering
There are other parts of UI that are still `PrimaryWindow` dependent, if
the changes here are OK I'll apply them everywhere.
I'm not a fan of the `EntityHashMap` here to hold the scale factors, but
it seems the quick and easy fix
## Testing
- Run example `multiple_windows` on a screen with a scale factor
different than 1, close the primary window
# Objective
- Fixes#10909
- Fixes#8492
## Solution
- Name all matrices `x_from_y`, for example `world_from_view`.
## Testing
- I've tested most of the 3D examples. The `lighting` example
particularly should hit a lot of the changes and appears to run fine.
---
## Changelog
- Renamed matrices across the engine to follow a `y_from_x` naming,
making the space conversion more obvious.
## Migration Guide
- `Frustum`'s `from_view_projection`, `from_view_projection_custom_far`
and `from_view_projection_no_far` were renamed to
`from_clip_from_world`, `from_clip_from_world_custom_far` and
`from_clip_from_world_no_far`.
- `ComputedCameraValues::projection_matrix` was renamed to
`clip_from_view`.
- `CameraProjection::get_projection_matrix` was renamed to
`get_clip_from_view` (this affects implementations on `Projection`,
`PerspectiveProjection` and `OrthographicProjection`).
- `ViewRangefinder3d::from_view_matrix` was renamed to
`from_world_from_view`.
- `PreviousViewData`'s members were renamed to `view_from_world` and
`clip_from_world`.
- `ExtractedView`'s `projection`, `transform` and `view_projection` were
renamed to `clip_from_view`, `world_from_view` and `clip_from_world`.
- `ViewUniform`'s `view_proj`, `unjittered_view_proj`,
`inverse_view_proj`, `view`, `inverse_view`, `projection` and
`inverse_projection` were renamed to `clip_from_world`,
`unjittered_clip_from_world`, `world_from_clip`, `world_from_view`,
`view_from_world`, `clip_from_view` and `view_from_clip`.
- `GpuDirectionalCascade::view_projection` was renamed to
`clip_from_world`.
- `MeshTransforms`' `transform` and `previous_transform` were renamed to
`world_from_local` and `previous_world_from_local`.
- `MeshUniform`'s `transform`, `previous_transform`,
`inverse_transpose_model_a` and `inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed
to `world_from_local`, `previous_world_from_local`,
`local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the
`Mesh` type in WGSL mirrors this, however `transform` and
`previous_transform` were named `model` and `previous_model`).
- `Mesh2dTransforms::transform` was renamed to `world_from_local`.
- `Mesh2dUniform`'s `transform`, `inverse_transpose_model_a` and
`inverse_transpose_model_b` were renamed to `world_from_local`,
`local_from_world_transpose_a` and `local_from_world_transpose_b` (the
`Mesh2d` type in WGSL mirrors this).
- In WGSL, in `bevy_pbr::mesh_functions`, `get_model_matrix` and
`get_previous_model_matrix` were renamed to `get_world_from_local` and
`get_previous_world_from_local`.
- In WGSL, `bevy_sprite::mesh2d_functions::get_model_matrix` was renamed
to `get_world_from_local`.
# Objective
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/13155
- fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/13517
- Supercedes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/13381
- Requires https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy/pull/661
## Solution
- Taffy has been updated to:
- Apply size styles to absolutely positioned children
- Pass the node's `Style` through to the measure function
- Bevy's image measure function has been updated to make use of this
style information
## Notes
- This is currently using a git version of Taffy. If this is tested as
fixing the issue then we can turn that into a Taffy 0.5 release (this
would be the only change between Taffy 0.4 and Taffy 0.5 so upgrading is
not expected to be an issue)
- This implementation may not be completely correct. I would have
preferred to extend Taffy's gentest infrastructure to handle images and
used that to nail down the correct behaviour. But I don't have time for
that atm so we'll have to iterate on this in future. This PR at least
puts that under Bevy's control.
## Testing
- I manually tested the game_menu_example (from
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/13155)
- More testing is probably merited
---
## Changelog
No changelog should be required as it fixes a regression on `main` that
was not present in bevy 0.13. The changelog for "Taffy upgrade" may want
to be changed from 0.4 to 0.5 if this change gets merged.

# Objective
- since #13523, UI is broken in WebGPU

## Solution
- call `textureSample` from outside the if. both branches are using the
same parameters
# Objective
- Fixes#13503
- Fix other various bugs I noticed while debugging above issue.
## Solution
- Change the antialiasing(AA) method. It was using fwidth which is the
derivative between pixels, but there were a lot of artifacts being added
from this. So just use the sdf value. This aa method probably isn't as
smooth looking, but better than having artifacts. Below is a
visualization of the fwidth.
- Use the internal sdf for drawing the background instead of the
external sdf and extract the border for these type of nodes. This fixed
2 bugs, one with the background coloring the AA pixels on the edge of
rounded borders. And also allows for the border to use a transparent
color.
- Don't extract borders if all the widths are zero.
## Testing
- played a bunch with the example in the linked issue.
This PR:

We invoked the `extract_default_ui_camera_view` system twice: once for
2D cameras and once for 3D cameras. This was fine before moving to
resources for render phases, but, after the move to resources, the first
thing such systems do is to clear out all the entities-to-be-rendered
from the previous frame. So, if the scheduler happened to run
`extract_default_ui_camera_view::<Camera2d>` first, then all the UI
elements that it queued would be overwritten by the
`extract_default_ui_camera_view::<Camera3d>` system, or vice versa. The
ordering dependence is the reason why this problem was intermittent.
This commit fixes the problem by merging the two systems into one
systems, using an `Or` query filter.
## Migration Guide
* The `bevy_ui::render::extract_default_ui_camera_view` system is no
longer parameterized over the specific type of camera and is hard-wired
to either `Camera2d` or `Camera3d` components.
# Objective
- Fixes#13092.
## Solution
- Renamed the `inset()` method in `Rect`, `IRect` and `URect` to
`inflate()`.
- Added `EMPTY` constants to all `Rect` variants, represented by corners
with the maximum numerical values for each kind.
---
## Migration Guide
- Replace `Rect::inset()`, `IRect::inset()` and `URect::inset()` calls
with `inflate()`.
This commit makes us stop using the render world ECS for
`BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` and instead use resources
with `EntityHashMap`s inside. There are three reasons to do this:
1. We can use `clear()` to clear out the render phase collections
instead of recreating the components from scratch, allowing us to reuse
allocations.
2. This is a prerequisite for retained bins, because components can't be
retained from frame to frame in the render world, but resources can.
3. We want to move away from storing anything in components in the
render world ECS, and this is a step in that direction.
This patch results in a small performance benefit, due to point (1)
above.
## Changelog
### Changed
* The `BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` render world
components have been replaced with `ViewBinnedRenderPhases` and
`ViewSortedRenderPhases` resources.
## Migration Guide
* The `BinnedRenderPhase` and `SortedRenderPhase` render world
components have been replaced with `ViewBinnedRenderPhases` and
`ViewSortedRenderPhases` resources. Instead of querying for the
components, look the camera entity up in the
`ViewBinnedRenderPhases`/`ViewSortedRenderPhases` tables.
# Objective
Currently, the 2d pipeline only has a transparent pass that is used for
everything. I want to have separate passes for opaque/alpha
mask/transparent meshes just like in 3d.
This PR does the basic work to start adding new phases to the 2d
pipeline and get the current setup a bit closer to 3d.
## Solution
- Use `ViewNode` for `MainTransparentPass2dNode`
- Added `Node2d::StartMainPass`, `Node2d::EndMainPass`
- Rename everything to clarify that the main pass is currently the
transparent pass
---
## Changelog
- Added `Node2d::StartMainPass`, `Node2d::EndMainPass`
## Migration Guide
If you were using `Node2d::MainPass` to order your own custom render
node. You now need to order it relative to `Node2d::StartMainPass` or
`Node2d::EndMainPass`.
This is an adoption of #12670 plus some documentation fixes. See that PR
for more details.
---
## Changelog
* Renamed `BufferVec` to `RawBufferVec` and added a new `BufferVec`
type.
## Migration Guide
`BufferVec` has been renamed to `RawBufferVec` and a new similar type
has taken the `BufferVec` name.

# Objective
- `README.md` is a common file that usually gives an overview of the
folder it is in.
- When on <https://crates.io>, `README.md` is rendered as the main
description.
- Many crates in this repository are lacking `README.md` files, which
makes it more difficult to understand their purpose.
<img width="1552" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/59022059/78ebf91d-b0c4-4b18-9874-365d6310640f">
- There are also a few inconsistencies with `README.md` files that this
PR and its follow-ups intend to fix.
## Solution
- Create a `README.md` file for all crates that do not have one.
- This file only contains the title of the crate (underscores removed,
proper capitalization, acronyms expanded) and the <https://shields.io>
badges.
- Remove the `readme` field in `Cargo.toml` for `bevy` and
`bevy_reflect`.
- This field is redundant because [Cargo automatically detects
`README.md`
files](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-readme-field).
The field is only there if you name it something else, like `INFO.md`.
- Fix capitalization of `bevy_utils`'s `README.md`.
- It was originally `Readme.md`, which is inconsistent with the rest of
the project.
- I created two commits renaming it to `README.md`, because Git appears
to be case-insensitive.
- Expand acronyms in title of `bevy_ptr` and `bevy_utils`.
- In the commit where I created all the new `README.md` files, I
preferred using expanded acronyms in the titles. (E.g. "Bevy Developer
Tools" instead of "Bevy Dev Tools".)
- This commit changes the title of existing `README.md` files to follow
the same scheme.
- I do not feel strongly about this change, please comment if you
disagree and I can revert it.
- Add <https://shields.io> badges to `bevy_time` and `bevy_transform`,
which are the only crates currently lacking them.
---
## Changelog
- Added `README.md` files to all crates missing it.
# Objective
- Enables support for `Display::Block`
- Enables support for `Overflow::Hidden`
- Allows for cleaner integration with text, image and other content
layout.
- Unblocks https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/8104
- Unlocks the possibility of Bevy creating a custom layout tree over
which Taffy operates.
- Enables #8808 / #10193 to remove a Mutex around the font system.
## Todo
- [x] ~Fix rendering of text/images to account for padding/border on
nodes (should size/position to content box rather than border box)~ In
order get this into a mergeable state this PR instead zeroes out
padding/border when syncing leaf node styles into Taffy to preserve the
existing behaviour. https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6879 can
be fixed in a followup PR.
## Solution
- Update the version of Taffy
- Update code to work with the new version
Note: Taffy 0.4 has not yet been released. This PR is being created in
advance of the release to ensure that there are no blockers to upgrading
once the release occurs.
---
## Changelog
- Bevy now supports the `Display::Block` and `Overflow::Hidden` styles.
This commit implements opt-in GPU frustum culling, built on top of the
infrastructure in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12773. To
enable it on a camera, add the `GpuCulling` component to it. To
additionally disable CPU frustum culling, add the `NoCpuCulling`
component. Note that adding `GpuCulling` without `NoCpuCulling`
*currently* does nothing useful. The reason why `GpuCulling` doesn't
automatically imply `NoCpuCulling` is that I intend to follow this patch
up with GPU two-phase occlusion culling, and CPU frustum culling plus
GPU occlusion culling seems like a very commonly-desired mode.
Adding the `GpuCulling` component to a view puts that view into
*indirect mode*. This mode makes all drawcalls indirect, relying on the
mesh preprocessing shader to allocate instances dynamically. In indirect
mode, the `PreprocessWorkItem` `output_index` points not to a
`MeshUniform` instance slot but instead to a set of `wgpu`
`IndirectParameters`, from which it allocates an instance slot
dynamically if frustum culling succeeds. Batch building has been updated
to allocate and track indirect parameter slots, and the AABBs are now
supplied to the GPU as `MeshCullingData`.
A small amount of code relating to the frustum culling has been borrowed
from meshlets and moved into `maths.wgsl`. Note that standard Bevy
frustum culling uses AABBs, while meshlets use bounding spheres; this
means that not as much code can be shared as one might think.
This patch doesn't provide any way to perform GPU culling on shadow
maps, to avoid making this patch bigger than it already is. That can be
a followup.
## Changelog
### Added
* Frustum culling can now optionally be done on the GPU. To enable it,
add the `GpuCulling` component to a camera.
* To disable CPU frustum culling, add `NoCpuCulling` to a camera. Note
that `GpuCulling` doesn't automatically imply `NoCpuCulling`.
# Objective

# Objective
Add support so bevy_ui can correctly handle an UI hierarchy without a
camera present.
- Fixes#12184
## Solution
As there was no default behavior for what should happen when a camera is
not present in a UI hierarchy, the solution
was based in defining that default behavior and improving the overall
handling of this "exception".
## Changelog
- Create default values to be used in upsert_node
- Add flag to control warnings about no camera present
- Create unit test no_camera_ui (to test if ui handles no camera
present)
# Objective
Sometimes when despawning a ui node in the PostUpdate schedule it
panics. This is because both a despawn command and insert command are
being run on the same entity.
See this example code:
```rs
use bevy::{prelude::*, ui::UiSystem};
#[derive(Resource)]
struct SliceSquare(Handle<Image>);
fn main() {
App::new()
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
.add_systems(Startup, setup)
.add_systems(Update, create_ui)
.add_systems(PostUpdate, despawn_nine_slice.after(UiSystem::Layout))
.run();
}
fn setup(mut commands: Commands, asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) {
commands.spawn(Camera2dBundle::default());
commands.insert_resource(SliceSquare(asset_server.load("textures/slice_square.png")));
}
fn create_ui(mut commands: Commands, slice_square: Res<SliceSquare>) {
commands.spawn((
NodeBundle {
style: Style {
width: Val::Px(200.),
height: Val::Px(200.),
..default()
},
background_color: Color::WHITE.into(),
..default()
},
UiImage::new(slice_square.0.clone()),
ImageScaleMode::Sliced(TextureSlicer {
border: BorderRect::square(220.),
center_scale_mode: SliceScaleMode::Stretch,
sides_scale_mode: SliceScaleMode::Stretch,
max_corner_scale: 1.,
}),
));
}
fn despawn_nine_slice(mut commands: Commands, mut slices: Query<Entity, With<ImageScaleMode>>) {
for entity in slices.iter_mut() {
commands.entity(entity).despawn_recursive();
}
}
```
This code spawns a UiNode with a sliced image scale mode, and despawns
it in the same frame. The
bevy_ui::texture_slice::compute_slices_on_image_change system tries to
insert the ComputedTextureSlices component on that node, but that entity
is already despawned causing this error:
```md
error[B0003]: Could not insert a bundle (of type `bevy_ui::texture_slice::ComputedTextureSlices`) for entity Entity { index: 2, generation: 3 } because it doesn't
exist in this World. See: https://bevyengine.org/learn/errors/#b0003
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
Encountered a panic when applying buffers for system `bevy_ui::texture_slice::compute_slices_on_image_change`!
Encountered a panic in system `bevy_ecs::schedule::executor::apply_deferred`!
Encountered a panic in system `bevy_app::main_schedule::Main::run_main`!
```
Note that you might have to run the code a few times before this error
appears.
## Solution
Use try_insert instead of insert for non critical inserts in the bevy_ui
crate.
## Some notes
In a lot of cases it does not makes much sense to despawn ui nodes after
the layout system has finished. Except maybe if you delete the root ui
node of a tree. I personally encountered this issue in bevy `0.13.2`
with a system that was running before the layout system. And in `0.13.2`
the `compute_slices_on_image_change` system was also running before the
layout system. But now it runs after the layout system. So the only way
that this bug appears now is if you despawn ui nodes after the layout
system. So I am not 100% sure if using try_insert in this system is the
best option. But personally I still think it is better then the program
panicking.
However the `update_children_target_camera` system does still run before
the layout system. So I do think it might still be able to panic when ui
nodes are despawned before the layout system. Though I haven't been able
to verify that.
# Objective
Make visibility system ordering explicit. Fixes#12953.
## Solution
Specify `CheckVisibility` happens after all other `VisibilitySystems`
sets have happened.

Co-authored-by: Elabajaba <Elabajaba@users.noreply.github.com>
This commit splits `VisibleEntities::entities` into four separate lists:
one for lights, one for 2D meshes, one for 3D meshes, and one for UI
elements. This allows `queue_material_meshes` and similar methods to
avoid examining entities that are obviously irrelevant. In particular,
this separation helps scenes with many skinned meshes, as the individual
bones are considered visible entities but have no rendered appearance.
Internally, `VisibleEntities::entities` is a `HashMap` from the `TypeId`
representing a `QueryFilter` to the appropriate `Entity` list. I had to
do this because `VisibleEntities` is located within an upstream crate
from the crates that provide lights (`bevy_pbr`) and 2D meshes
(`bevy_sprite`). As an added benefit, this setup allows apps to provide
their own types of renderable components, by simply adding a specialized
`check_visibility` to the schedule.
This provides a 16.23% end-to-end speedup on `many_foxes` with 10,000
foxes (24.06 ms/frame to 20.70 ms/frame).
## Migration guide
* `check_visibility` and `VisibleEntities` now store the four types of
renderable entities--2D meshes, 3D meshes, lights, and UI
elements--separately. If your custom rendering code examines
`VisibleEntities`, it will now need to specify which type of entity it's
interested in using the `WithMesh2d`, `WithMesh`, `WithLight`, and
`WithNode` types respectively. If your app introduces a new type of
renderable entity, you'll need to add an explicit call to
`check_visibility` to the schedule to accommodate your new component or
components.
## Analysis
`many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes: `main`:
`many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes, this branch:
`queue_material_meshes` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`):
`queue_shadows` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`):
# Objective
- Replace `RenderMaterials` / `RenderMaterials2d` / `RenderUiMaterials`
with `RenderAssets` to enable implementing changes to one thing,
`RenderAssets`, that applies to all use cases rather than duplicating
changes everywhere for multiple things that should be one thing.
- Adopts #8149
## Solution
- Make RenderAsset generic over the destination type rather than the
source type as in #8149
- Use `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` etc for render materials

- The `RenderAsset` trait is now implemented on the destination type.
Its `SourceAsset` associated type refers to the type of the source
asset.
- `RenderMaterials`, `RenderMaterials2d`, and `RenderUiMaterials` have
been replaced by `RenderAssets<PreparedMaterial<M>>` and similar.
## Migration Guide
- `RenderAsset` is now implemented for the destination type rather that
the source asset type. The source asset type is now the `RenderAsset`
trait's `SourceAsset` associated type.
This is 1 of 5 iterative PR's that affect bevy_ui/layout
---
# Objective
- Extract `UiSurface` into its own file to make diffs in future PR's
easier to digest
## Solution
- Moved `UiSurface` to its own file
# Objective
This is a necessary precursor to #9122 (this was split from that PR to
reduce the amount of code to review all at once).
Moving `!Send` resource ownership to `App` will make it unambiguously
`!Send`. `SubApp` must be `Send`, so it can't wrap `App`.
## Solution
Refactor `App` and `SubApp` to not have a recursive relationship. Since
`SubApp` no longer wraps `App`, once `!Send` resources are moved out of
`World` and into `App`, `SubApp` will become unambiguously `Send`.
There could be less code duplication between `App` and `SubApp`, but
that would break `App` method chaining.
## Changelog
- `SubApp` no longer wraps `App`.
- `App` fields are no longer publicly accessible.
- `App` can no longer be converted into a `SubApp`.
- Various methods now return references to a `SubApp` instead of an
`App`.
## Migration Guide
- To construct a sub-app, use `SubApp::new()`. `App` can no longer
convert into `SubApp`.
- If you implemented a trait for `App`, you may want to implement it for
`SubApp` as well.
- If you're accessing `app.world` directly, you now have to use
`app.world()` and `app.world_mut()`.
- `App::sub_app` now returns `&SubApp`.
- `App::sub_app_mut` now returns `&mut SubApp`.
- `App::get_sub_app` now returns `Option<&SubApp>.`
- `App::get_sub_app_mut` now returns `Option<&mut SubApp>.`
Today, we sort all entities added to all phases, even the phases that
don't strictly need sorting, such as the opaque and shadow phases. This
results in a performance loss because our `PhaseItem`s are rather large
in memory, so sorting is slow. Additionally, determining the boundaries
of batches is an O(n) process.
This commit makes Bevy instead applicable place phase items into *bins*
keyed by *bin keys*, which have the invariant that everything in the
same bin is potentially batchable. This makes determining batch
boundaries O(1), because everything in the same bin can be batched.
Instead of sorting each entity, we now sort only the bin keys. This
drops the sorting time to near-zero on workloads with few bins like
`many_cubes --no-frustum-culling`. Memory usage is improved too, with
batch boundaries and dynamic indices now implicit instead of explicit.
The improved memory usage results in a significant win even on
unbatchable workloads like `many_cubes --no-frustum-culling
--vary-material-data-per-instance`, presumably due to cache effects.
Not all phases can be binned; some, such as transparent and transmissive
phases, must still be sorted. To handle this, this commit splits
`PhaseItem` into `BinnedPhaseItem` and `SortedPhaseItem`. Most of the
logic that today deals with `PhaseItem`s has been moved to
`SortedPhaseItem`. `BinnedPhaseItem` has the new logic.
Frame time results (in ms/frame) are as follows:
| Benchmark | `binning` | `main` | Speedup |
| ------------------------ | --------- | ------- | ------- |
| `many_cubes -nfc -vpi` | 232.179 | 312.123 | 34.43% |
| `many_cubes -nfc` | 25.874 | 30.117 | 16.40% |
| `many_foxes` | 3.276 | 3.515 | 7.30% |
(`-nfc` is short for `--no-frustum-culling`; `-vpi` is short for
`--vary-per-instance`.)
---
## Changelog
### Changed
* Render phases have been split into binned and sorted phases. Binned
phases, such as the common opaque phase, achieve improved CPU
performance by avoiding the sorting step.
## Migration Guide
- `PhaseItem` has been split into `BinnedPhaseItem` and
`SortedPhaseItem`. If your code has custom `PhaseItem`s, you will need
to migrate them to one of these two types. `SortedPhaseItem` requires
the fewest code changes, but you may want to pick `BinnedPhaseItem` if
your phase doesn't require sorting, as that enables higher performance.

You can see that `batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase` is a much
smaller fraction of the time. Zooming in on that function, with yellow
being this branch and red being `main`, we see:

The binning happens in `queue_material_meshes`. Again with yellow being
this branch and red being `main`:

We can see that there is a small regression in `queue_material_meshes`
performance, but it's not nearly enough to outweigh the large gains in
`batch_and_prepare_binned_render_phase`.

# Objective
- Fixes#12712
## Solution
- Move the `float_ord.rs` file to `bevy_math`
- Change any `bevy_utils::FloatOrd` statements to `bevy_math::FloatOrd`
---
## Changelog
- Moved `FloatOrd` from `bevy_utils` to `bevy_math`
## Migration Guide
- References to `bevy_utils::FloatOrd` should be changed to
`bevy_math::FloatOrd`
# Objective
Resolves#3824. `unsafe` code should be the exception, not the norm in
Rust. It's obviously needed for various use cases as it's interfacing
with platforms and essentially running the borrow checker at runtime in
the ECS, but the touted benefits of Bevy is that we are able to heavily
leverage Rust's safety, and we should be holding ourselves accountable
to that by minimizing our unsafe footprint.
## Solution
Deny `unsafe_code` workspace wide. Add explicit exceptions for the
following crates, and forbid it in almost all of the others.
* bevy_ecs - Obvious given how much unsafe is needed to achieve
performant results
* bevy_ptr - Works with raw pointers, even more low level than bevy_ecs.
* bevy_render - due to needing to integrate with wgpu
* bevy_window - due to needing to integrate with raw_window_handle
* bevy_utils - Several unsafe utilities used by bevy_ecs. Ideally moved
into bevy_ecs instead of made publicly usable.
* bevy_reflect - Required for the unsafe type casting it's doing.
* bevy_transform - for the parallel transform propagation
* bevy_gizmos - For the SystemParam impls it has.
* bevy_assets - To support reflection. Might not be required, not 100%
sure yet.
* bevy_mikktspace - due to being a conversion from a C library. Pending
safe rewrite.
* bevy_dynamic_plugin - Inherently unsafe due to the dynamic loading
nature.
Several uses of unsafe were rewritten, as they did not need to be using
them:
* bevy_text - a case of `Option::unchecked` could be rewritten as a
normal for loop and match instead of an iterator.
* bevy_color - the Pod/Zeroable implementations were replaceable with
bytemuck's derive macros.
# Objective
Fix the regression for Root Node's Layout behavior introduced in
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/12268
- Add regression test for Root Node Layout's behaving as they did before
0.13.1
- Restore pre 0.13.1 Root Node Layout behavior (fixes
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12624)
## Solution
This implements [@nicoburns suggestion
](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663673393938453/1221593626476548146),
where instead of adding the camera to the taffy node tree, we revert
back to adding a new "parent" node for each root node while maintaining
their relationship with the camera.
> If you can do the ecs change detection to move the node to the correct
Taffy instance for the camera then you should also be able to move it to
a `Vec` of root nodes for that camera.
---
## Changelog
Fixed https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12624 - Restores pre
0.13.1 Root Node Layout behavior
## Migration Guide
If you were affected by the 0.13.1 regression and added `position_type:
Absolute` to all your root nodes you might be able to reclaim some LOC
by removing them now that the 0.13 behavior is restored.
# Objective
Currently the built docs only shows the logo and favicon for the top
level `bevy` crate. This makes views like
https://docs.rs/bevy_ecs/latest/bevy_ecs/ look potentially unrelated to
the project at first glance.
## Solution
Reproduce the docs attributes for every crate that Bevy publishes.
Ideally this would be done with some workspace level Cargo.toml control,
but AFAICT, such support does not exist.
# Objective
- #12500 use the primary window resolution to do all its calculation.
This means bad support for multiple windows or multiple ui camera
## Solution
- Use camera driven UI (https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/10559)
# Objective
- since #12500, text is a little bit more gray in UI
## Solution
- don't multiply color by alpha. I think this was done in the original
PR (#8973) for shadows which were not added in #12500
# Objective
- #12500 broke images and background colors in UI. Try examples
`overflow`, `ui_scaling` or `ui_texture_atlas`
## Solution
- Makes the component `BorderRadius` optional in the query, as it's not
always present. Use `[0.; 4]` as border radius in the extracted node
when none was found
# Objective
Implements border radius for UI nodes. Adopted from #8973, but excludes
shadows.
## Solution
- Add a component `BorderRadius` which contains a radius value for each
corner of the UI node.
- Use a fragment shader to generate the rounded corners using a signed
distance function.

## Changelog
- `BorderRadius`: New component that holds the border radius values.
- `NodeBundle` & `ButtonBundle`: Added a `border_radius: BorderRadius`
field.
- `extract_uinode_borders`: Stripped down, most of the work is done in
the shader now. Borders are no longer assembled from multiple rects,
instead the shader uses a signed distance function to draw the border.
- `UiVertex`: Added size, border and radius fields.
- `UiPipeline`: Added three vertex attributes to the vertex buffer
layout, to accept the UI node's size, border thickness and border
radius.
- Examples: Added rounded corners to the UI element in the `button`
example, and a `rounded_borders` example.

# Objective
- working with UI components in Bevy, I found myself wanting some of
these common traits, like `PartialEq` for comparing simple types
## Solution
- I added only (hopefully) uncontroversial `derive`s for some common UI
types
Note that many types, unfortunately, can't have `PartialEq` `derive`d
for them, because they contain `f32`s and / or `Vec`s.
# Objective
Whenever a nodes size gets changed, its texture slices get updated a
frame later. This results in visual glitches when animating the size of
a node with a texture slice. See this video:
[Screencast from 17-03-24
14:53:13.webm](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/46689298/64e711f7-a1ec-41e3-b119-dc8d7e1a7669)
## Solution
Compute texture slices after the layout system has finished.
# Objective
assets that don't load before they get removed are retried forever,
causing buffer churn and slowdown.
## Solution
stop trying to prepare dead assets.
# Objective
Originally proposed as part of #8973. Adds `with_` methods for each side
of `UiRect`
## Solution
Add `with_left`, `with_right`, `with_top`, `with_bottom` to `UiRect`.
# Objective
Fixes#12064
## Solution
Prior to #11326, the "global physical" translation of text was rounded.
After #11326, only the "offset" is being rounded.
This moves things around so that the "global translation" is converted
to physical pixels, rounded, and then converted back to logical pixels,
which is what I believe was happening before / what the comments above
describe.
## Discussion
This seems to work and fix an obvious mistake in some code, but I don't
fully grok the ui / text pipelines / math here.
