# Objective
Fixes: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6466
Summary: The UI Scaling example dynamically scales the UI which will dynamically allocate fonts to the font atlas surpassing the protective limit, throwing a panic.
## Solution
- Set TextSettings.allow_dynamic_font_size = true for the UI Scaling example. This is the ideal solution since the dynamic changes to the UI are not continuous yet still discrete.
- Update the panic text to reflect ui scaling as a potential cause
# Objective
The bloom example has a 2d camera for the UI. This is an artifact of an older version of bevy. All cameras can render the UI now.
## Solution
Remove the 2d camera
Allow passing `Vec`s of glam vector types as vertex attributes.
Alternative to #4548 and #2719
Also used some macros to cut down on all the repetition.
# Migration Guide
Implementations of `From<Vec<[u16; 4]>>` and `From<Vec<[u8; 4]>>` for `VertexAttributeValues` have been removed.
I you're passing either `Vec<[u16; 4]>` or `Vec<[u8; 4]>` into `Mesh::insert_attribute` it will now require wrapping it with right the `VertexAttributeValues` enum variant.

# Objective
- Adds a bloom pass for HDR-enabled Camera3ds.
- Supersedes (and all credit due to!) https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/3430 and https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/2876
## Solution
- A threshold is applied to isolate emissive samples, and then a series of downscale and upscaling passes are applied and composited together.
- Bloom is applied to 2d or 3d Cameras with hdr: true and a BloomSettings component.
---
## Changelog
- Added a `core_pipeline::bloom::BloomSettings` component.
- Added `BloomNode` that runs between the main pass and tonemapping.
- Added a `BloomPlugin` that is loaded as part of CorePipelinePlugin.
- Added a bloom example project.

# Objective
Add consistent UI rendering and interaction where deep nodes inside two different hierarchies will never render on top of one-another by default and offer an escape hatch (z-index) for nodes to change their depth.
## The problem with current implementation
The current implementation of UI rendering is broken in that regard, mainly because [it sets the Z value of the `Transform` component based on a "global Z" space](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/blob/main/crates/bevy_ui/src/update.rs#L43) shared by all nodes in the UI. This doesn't account for the fact that each node's final `GlobalTransform` value will be relative to its parent. This effectively makes the depth unpredictable when two deep trees are rendered on top of one-another.
At the moment, it's also up to each part of the UI code to sort all of the UI nodes. The solution that's offered here does the full sorting of UI node entities once and offers the result through a resource so that all systems can use it.
## Solution
### New ZIndex component
This adds a new optional `ZIndex` enum component for nodes which offers two mechanism:
- `ZIndex::Local(i32)`: Overrides the depth of the node relative to its siblings.
- `ZIndex::Global(i32)`: Overrides the depth of the node relative to the UI root. This basically allows any node in the tree to "escape" the parent and be ordered relative to the entire UI.
Note that in the current implementation, omitting `ZIndex` on a node has the same result as adding `ZIndex::Local(0)`. Additionally, the "global" stacking context is essentially a way to add your node to the root stacking context, so using `ZIndex::Local(n)` on a root node (one without parent) will share that space with all nodes using `Index::Global(n)`.
### New UiStack resource
This adds a new `UiStack` resource which is calculated from both hierarchy and `ZIndex` during UI update and contains a vector of all node entities in the UI, ordered by depth (from farthest from camera to closest). This is exposed publicly by the bevy_ui crate with the hope that it can be used for consistent ordering and to reduce the amount of sorting that needs to be done by UI systems (i.e. instead of sorting everything by `global_transform.z` in every system, this array can be iterated over).
### New z_index example
This also adds a new z_index example that showcases the new `ZIndex` component. It's also a good general demo of the new UI stack system, because making this kind of UI was very broken with the old system (e.g. nodes would render on top of each other, not respecting hierarchy or insert order at all).
---
## Changelog
- Added the `ZIndex` component to bevy_ui.
- Added the `UiStack` resource to bevy_ui, and added implementation in a new `stack.rs` module.
- Removed the previous Z updating system from bevy_ui, because it was replaced with the above.
- Changed bevy_ui rendering to use UiStack instead of z ordering.
- Changed bevy_ui focus/interaction system to use UiStack instead of z ordering.
- Added a new z_index example.

# Objective
- Add post processing passes for FXAA (Fast Approximate Anti-Aliasing)
- Add example comparing MSAA and FXAA
## Solution
When the FXAA plugin is added, passes for FXAA are inserted between the main pass and the tonemapping pass. Supports using either HDR or LDR output from the main pass.

# Objective
- Fixes #6311
- Make it clearer what should be done in the example (close the Bevy app window)
## Solution
- Remove the second windowed Bevy App [since winit does not support this](https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/blob/v0.27.4/src/event_loop.rs#L82-L83)
- Add title to the Bevy window asking the user to close it
This is more of a quick fix to have a working example. It would be nicer if we had a small real usecase for this functionality.
Another alternativ that I tried out: If we want to showcase a second Bevy app as it was before, we could still do this as long as one of them does not have a window. But I don't see how this is helpful in the context of the example, so I stuck with only one Bevy app and a simple print afterwards.
# Objective
- Make it impossible to add a plugin twice
- This is going to be more a risk for plugins with configurations, to avoid things like `App::new().add_plugins(DefaultPlugins).add_plugin(ImagePlugin::default_nearest())`
## Solution
- Panic when a plugin is added twice
- It's still possible to mark a plugin as not unique by overriding `is_unique`
- ~~Simpler version of~~ #3988 (not simpler anymore because of how `PluginGroupBuilder` implements `PluginGroup`)
# Objective
Currently toggling an `AudioSink` (for example from a game menu) requires writing
```rs
if sink.is_paused() {
sink.play();
} else {
sink.pause();
}
```
It would be nicer if we could reduce this down to a single line
```rs
sink.toggle();
```
## Solution
Add an `AudioSink::toggle` method which does exactly that.
---
## Changelog
- Added `AudioSink::toggle` which can be used to toggle state of a sink.
# Objective
Add methods to `Query<&Children>` and `Query<&Parent>` to iterate over descendants and ancestors, respectively.
## Changelog
* Added extension trait for `Query` in `bevy_hierarchy`, `HierarchyQueryExt`
* Added method `iter_descendants` to `Query<&Children>` via `HierarchyQueryExt` for iterating over the descendants of an entity.
* Added method `iter_ancestors` to `Query<&Parent>` via `HierarchyQueryExt` for iterating over the ancestors of an entity.

# Objective
Bevy still has many instances of using single-tuples `(T,)` to create a bundle. Due to #2975, this is no longer necessary.
## Solution
Search for regex `\(.+\s*,\)`. This should have found every instance.
# Objective
Following discussion on #3536 and #3522, `Handle::as_weak()` takes a type `U`, reinterpreting the handle as of another asset type while keeping the same ID. This is mainly used today in font atlas code. This PR does two things:
- Rename the method to `cast_weak()` to make its intent more clear
- Actually change the type uuid in the handle if it's not an asset path variant.
## Migration Guide
- Rename `Handle::as_weak` uses to `Handle::cast_weak`
The method now properly sets the associated type uuid if the handle is a direct reference (e.g. not a reference to an `AssetPath`), so adjust you code accordingly if you relied on the previous behavior.
# Objective
- fix new clippy lints before they get stable and break CI
## Solution
- run `clippy --fix` to auto-fix machine-applicable lints
- silence `clippy::should_implement_trait` for `fn HandleId::default<T: Asset>`
## Changes
- always prefer `format!("{inline}")` over `format!("{}", not_inline)`
- prefer `Box::default` (or `Box::<T>::default` if necessary) over `Box::new(T::default())`
Attempt to make features like bloom https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/2876 easier to implement.
**This PR:**
- Moves the tonemapping from `pbr.wgsl` into a separate pass
- also add a separate upscaling pass after the tonemapping which writes to the swap chain (enables resolution-independant rendering and post-processing after tonemapping)
- adds a `hdr` bool to the camera which controls whether the pbr and sprite shaders render into a `Rgba16Float` texture
**Open questions:**
- ~should the 2d graph work the same as the 3d one?~ it is the same now
- ~The current solution is a bit inflexible because while you can add a post processing pass that writes to e.g. the `hdr_texture`, you can't write to a separate `user_postprocess_texture` while reading the `hdr_texture` and tell the tone mapping pass to read from the `user_postprocess_texture` instead. If the tonemapping and upscaling render graph nodes were to take in a `TextureView` instead of the view entity this would almost work, but the bind groups for their respective input textures are already created in the `Queue` render stage in the hardcoded order.~ solved by creating bind groups in render node

## Solution
- Code changed as recommended by `rustup update`, `rustup default beta`, `cargo run -p ci -- clippy`.
- Tested using `beta` and `stable`. No clippy warnings in either after changes made.
---

# Objective
- Build on #6336 for more plugin configurations
## Solution
- `LogSettings`, `ImageSettings` and `DefaultTaskPoolOptions` are now plugins settings rather than resources
---
## Changelog
- `LogSettings` plugin settings have been move to `LogPlugin`, `ImageSettings` to `ImagePlugin` and `DefaultTaskPoolOptions` to `CorePlugin`
## Migration Guide
The `LogSettings` settings have been moved from a resource to `LogPlugin` configuration:
```rust
// Old (Bevy 0.8)
app
.insert_resource(LogSettings {
level: Level::DEBUG,
filter: "wgpu=error,bevy_render=info,bevy_ecs=trace".to_string(),
})
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
// New (Bevy 0.9)
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(LogPlugin {
level: Level::DEBUG,
filter: "wgpu=error,bevy_render=info,bevy_ecs=trace".to_string(),
}))
```
The `ImageSettings` settings have been moved from a resource to `ImagePlugin` configuration:
```rust
// Old (Bevy 0.8)
app
.insert_resource(ImageSettings::default_nearest())
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
// New (Bevy 0.9)
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(ImagePlugin::default_nearest()))
```
The `DefaultTaskPoolOptions` settings have been moved from a resource to `CorePlugin::task_pool_options`:
```rust
// Old (Bevy 0.8)
app
.insert_resource(DefaultTaskPoolOptions::with_num_threads(4))
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
// New (Bevy 0.9)
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(CorePlugin {
task_pool_options: TaskPoolOptions::with_num_threads(4),
}))
```
# Objective
Fixes#5884#2879
Alternative to #2988#5885#2886
"Immutable" Plugin settings are currently represented as normal ECS resources, which are read as part of plugin init. This presents a number of problems:
1. If a user inserts the plugin settings resource after the plugin is initialized, it will be silently ignored (and use the defaults instead)
2. Users can modify the plugin settings resource after the plugin has been initialized. This creates a false sense of control over settings that can no longer be changed.
(1) and (2) are especially problematic and confusing for the `WindowDescriptor` resource, but this is a general problem.
## Solution
Immutable Plugin settings now live on each Plugin struct (ex: `WindowPlugin`). PluginGroups have been reworked to support overriding plugin values. This also removes the need for the `add_plugins_with` api, as the `add_plugins` api can use the builder pattern directly. Settings that can be used at runtime continue to be represented as ECS resources.
Plugins are now configured like this:
```rust
app.add_plugin(AssetPlugin {
watch_for_changes: true,
..default()
})
```
PluginGroups are now configured like this:
```rust
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins
.set(AssetPlugin {
watch_for_changes: true,
..default()
})
)
```
This is an alternative to #2988, which is similar. But I personally prefer this solution for a couple of reasons:
* ~~#2988 doesn't solve (1)~~ #2988 does solve (1) and will panic in that case. I was wrong!
* This PR directly ties plugin settings to Plugin types in a 1:1 relationship, rather than a loose "setup resource" <-> plugin coupling (where the setup resource is consumed by the first plugin that uses it).
* I'm not a huge fan of overloading the ECS resource concept and implementation for something that has very different use cases and constraints.
## Changelog
- PluginGroups can now be configured directly using the builder pattern. Individual plugin values can be overridden by using `plugin_group.set(SomePlugin {})`, which enables overriding default plugin values.
- `WindowDescriptor` plugin settings have been moved to `WindowPlugin` and `AssetServerSettings` have been moved to `AssetPlugin`
- `app.add_plugins_with` has been replaced by using `add_plugins` with the builder pattern.
## Migration Guide
The `WindowDescriptor` settings have been moved from a resource to `WindowPlugin::window`:
```rust
// Old (Bevy 0.8)
app
.insert_resource(WindowDescriptor {
width: 400.0,
..default()
})
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
// New (Bevy 0.9)
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(WindowPlugin {
window: WindowDescriptor {
width: 400.0,
..default()
},
..default()
}))
```
The `AssetServerSettings` resource has been removed in favor of direct `AssetPlugin` configuration:
```rust
// Old (Bevy 0.8)
app
.insert_resource(AssetServerSettings {
watch_for_changes: true,
..default()
})
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
// New (Bevy 0.9)
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(AssetPlugin {
watch_for_changes: true,
..default()
}))
```
`add_plugins_with` has been replaced by `add_plugins` in combination with the builder pattern:
```rust
// Old (Bevy 0.8)
app.add_plugins_with(DefaultPlugins, |group| group.disable::<AssetPlugin>());
// New (Bevy 0.9)
app.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.build().disable::<AssetPlugin>());
```
# Objective
Fixes#6339.
## Solution
This PR adds a new type, `GamepadInfo`, which holds metadata associated with a particular `Gamepad`. The `Gamepads` resource now holds a `HashMap<Gamepad, GamepadInfo>`. The `GamepadInfo` is created when the gamepad backend (by default `bevy_gilrs`) emits a "gamepad connected" event.
The `gamepad_viewer` example has been updated to showcase the new functionality.
Before:
After:
---
## Changelog
### Added
- Added `GamepadInfo`.
- Added `Gamepads::name()`, which returns the name of the specified gamepad if it exists.
### Changed
- `GamepadEventType::Connected` is now a tuple variant with a single field of type `GamepadInfo`.
- Since `GamepadInfo` is not `Copy`, `GamepadEventType` is no longer `Copy`. The same is true of `GamepadEvent` and `GamepadEventRaw`.
## Migration Guide
- Pattern matches on `GamepadEventType::Connected` will need to be updated, as the form of the variant has changed.
- Code that requires `GamepadEvent`, `GamepadEventRaw` or `GamepadEventType` to be `Copy` will need to be updated.
# Objective
- Add Time-Adjusted Rolling EMA-based smoothing to diagnostics.
- Closes#4983; see that issue for more more information.
## Terms
- EMA - [Exponential Moving Average](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_average#Exponential_moving_average)
- SMA - [Simple Moving Average](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_average#Simple_moving_average)
## Solution
- We use a fairly standard approximation of a true EMA where $EMA_{\text{frame}} = EMA_{\text{previous}} + \alpha \left( x_{\text{frame}} - EMA_{\text{previous}} \right)$ where $\alpha = \Delta t / \tau$ and $\tau$ is an arbitrary smoothness factor. (See #4983 for more discussion of the math.)
- The smoothness factor is here defaulted to $2 / 21$; this was chosen fairly arbitrarily as supposedly related to the existing 20-bucket SMA.
- The smoothness factor can be set on a per-diagnostic basis via `Diagnostic::with_smoothing_factor`.
---
## Changelog
### Added
- `Diagnostic::smoothed` - provides an exponentially smoothed view of a recorded diagnostic, to e.g. reduce jitter in frametime readings.
### Changed
- `LogDiagnosticsPlugin` now records the smoothed value rather than the raw value.
- For diagnostics recorded less often than every 0.1 seconds, this change to defaults will have no visible effect.
- For discrete diagnostics where this smoothing is not desirable, set a smoothing factor of 0 to disable smoothing.
- The average of the recent history is still shown when available.
# Objective
- Make `Time` API more consistent.
- Support time accel/decel/pause.
## Solution
This is just the `Time` half of #3002. I was told that part isn't controversial.
- Give the "delta time" and "total elapsed time" methods `f32`, `f64`, and `Duration` variants with consistent naming.
- Implement accelerating / decelerating the passage of time.
- Implement stopping time.
---
## Changelog
- Changed `time_since_startup` to `elapsed` because `time.time_*` is just silly.
- Added `relative_speed` and `set_relative_speed` methods.
- Added `is_paused`, `pause`, `unpause` , and methods. (I'd prefer `resume`, but `unpause` matches `Timer` API.)
- Added `raw_*` variants of the "delta time" and "total elapsed time" methods.
- Added `first_update` method because there's a non-zero duration between startup and the first update.
## Migration Guide
- `time.time_since_startup()` -> `time.elapsed()`
- `time.seconds_since_startup()` -> `time.elapsed_seconds_f64()`
- `time.seconds_since_startup_wrapped_f32()` -> `time.elapsed_seconds_wrapped()`
If you aren't sure which to use, most systems should continue to use "scaled" time (e.g. `time.delta_seconds()`). The realtime "unscaled" time measurements (e.g. `time.raw_delta_seconds()`) are mostly for debugging and profiling.
# Objective
- Update `wgpu` to 0.14.0, `naga` to `0.10.0`, `winit` to 0.27.4, `raw-window-handle` to 0.5.0, `ndk` to 0.7.
## Solution
---
## Changelog
### Changed
- Changed `RawWindowHandleWrapper` to `RawHandleWrapper` which wraps both `RawWindowHandle` and `RawDisplayHandle`, which satisfies the `impl HasRawWindowHandle and HasRawDisplayHandle` that `wgpu` 0.14.0 requires.
- Changed `bevy_window::WindowDescriptor`'s `cursor_locked` to `cursor_grab_mode`, change its type from `bool` to `bevy_window::CursorGrabMode`.
## Migration Guide
- Adjust usage of `bevy_window::WindowDescriptor`'s `cursor_locked` to `cursor_grab_mode`, and adjust its type from `bool` to `bevy_window::CursorGrabMode`.

## Solution
Originally a rebase of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/3446. Work was originally done by mfdorst, who should receive considerable credit. Then the error types were extensively reworked by targrub.
## Migration Guide
`AxisSettings` now has a `new()`, which may return an `AxisSettingsError`.
`AxisSettings` fields made private; now must be accessed through getters and setters. There's a dead zone, from `.deadzone_upperbound()` to `.deadzone_lowerbound()`, and a live zone, from `.deadzone_upperbound()` to `.livezone_upperbound()` and from `.deadzone_lowerbound()` to `.livezone_lowerbound()`.
`AxisSettings` setters no longer panic.
`ButtonSettings` fields made private; now must be accessed through getters and setters.
`ButtonSettings` now has a `new()`, which may return a `ButtonSettingsError`.

As mentioned in #2926, it's better to have an explicit type that clearly communicates the intent of the timer mode rather than an opaque boolean, which can be only understood when knowing the signature or having to look up the documentation.
This also opens up a way to merge different timers, such as `Stopwatch`, and possibly future ones, such as `DiscreteStopwatch` and `DiscreteTimer` from #2683, into one struct.

## Solution
Introduce `TimerMode` which replaces the `bool` argument of `Timer` constructors. A `Default` value for `TimerMode` is `Once`.

- `TimerMode` enum, along with variants `TimerMode::Once` and `TimerMode::Repeating`
### Changed
- Replace `bool` argument of `Timer::new` and `Timer::from_seconds` with `TimerMode`
- Change `repeating: bool` field of `Timer` with `mode: TimerMode`
## Migration Guide
- Replace `Timer::new(duration, false)` with `Timer::new(duration, TimerMode::Once)`.
- Replace `Timer::new(duration, true)` with `Timer::new(duration, TimerMode::Repeating)`.
- Replace `Timer::from_seconds(seconds, false)` with `Timer::from_seconds(seconds, TimerMode::Once)`.
- Replace `Timer::from_seconds(seconds, true)` with `Timer::from_seconds(seconds, TimerMode::Repeating)`.
- Change `timer.repeating()` to `timer.mode() == TimerMode::Repeating`.

> System chaining is a confusing name: it implies the ability to construct non-linear graphs, and suggests a sense of system ordering that is only incidentally true. Instead, it actually works by passing data from one system to the next, much like the pipe operator.
> In the accepted [stageless RFC](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/blob/main/rfcs/45-stageless.md), this concept is renamed to piping, and "system chaining" is used to construct groups of systems with ordering dependencies between them.
Fixes#6225.
## Changelog
System chaining has been renamed to system piping to improve clarity (and free up the name for new ordering APIs).
## Migration Guide
The `.chain(handler_system)` method on systems is now `.pipe(handler_system)`.
The `IntoChainSystem` trait is now `IntoPipeSystem`, and the `ChainSystem` struct is now `PipeSystem`.
The docs ended up quite verbose :v
Also added a missing `#[inline]` to `GlobalTransform::mul_transform`.
I'd say this resolves#5500
# Migration Guide
`Transform::mul_vec3` has been renamed to `transform_point`.

# Objective
Closes#6202.
The default background color for `NodeBundle` is currently white.
However, it's very rare that you actually want a white background color.
Instead, you often want a background color specific to the style of your game or a transparent background (e.g. for UI layout nodes).
## Solution
`Default` is not derived for `NodeBundle` anymore, but explicitly specified.
The default background color is now transparent (`Color::NONE.into()`) as this is the most common use-case, is familiar from the web and makes specifying a layout for your UI less tedious.
---
## Changelog
- Changed the default `NodeBundle.background_color` to be transparent (`Color::NONE.into()`).
## Migration Guide
If you want a `NodeBundle` with a white background color, you must explicitly specify it:
Before:
```rust
let node = NodeBundle {
..default()
}
```
After:
```rust
let node = NodeBundle {
background_color: Color::WHITE.into(),
..default()
}
```
# Objective
- Reduce code duplication in the `gamepad_viewer` example.
- Fixes#6164

# Objective
Examples should use the correct tools for the job.
## Solution
A fixed timestep, by design, can step multiple times consecutively in a single update.
That property used to crash the `alien_cake_addict` example (#2525), which was "fixed" in #3411 (by just not panicking). The proper fix is to use a timer instead, since the system is supposed to spawn a cake every 5 seconds.
---
A timer guarantees a minimum duration. A fixed timestep guarantees a fixed number of steps per second.
Each one works by essentially sacrificing the other's guarantee.
You can use them together, but no other systems are timestep-based in this example, so the timer is enough.
# Objective
- Alpha mask was previously ignored when using an unlit material.
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4479
## Solution
- Extract the alpha discard to a separate function and use it when unlit is true
## Notes
I tried calling `alpha_discard()` before the `if` in pbr.wgsl, but I had errors related to having a `discard` at the beginning before doing the texture sampling. I'm not sure if there's a way to fix that instead of having the function being called in 2 places.
# Objective
The [Stageless RFC](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/45) involves allowing exclusive systems to be referenced and ordered relative to parallel systems. We've agreed that unifying systems under `System` is the right move.
This is an alternative to #4166 (see rationale in the comments I left there). Note that this builds on the learnings established there (and borrows some patterns).
## Solution
This unifies parallel and exclusive systems under the shared `System` trait, removing the old `ExclusiveSystem` trait / impls. This is accomplished by adding a new `ExclusiveFunctionSystem` impl similar to `FunctionSystem`. It is backed by `ExclusiveSystemParam`, which is similar to `SystemParam`. There is a new flattened out SystemContainer api (which cuts out a lot of trait and type complexity).
This means you can remove all cases of `exclusive_system()`:
```rust
// before
commands.add_system(some_system.exclusive_system());
// after
commands.add_system(some_system);
```
I've also implemented `ExclusiveSystemParam` for `&mut QueryState` and `&mut SystemState`, which makes this possible in exclusive systems:
```rust
fn some_exclusive_system(
world: &mut World,
transforms: &mut QueryState<&Transform>,
state: &mut SystemState<(Res<Time>, Query<&Player>)>,
) {
for transform in transforms.iter(world) {
println!("{transform:?}");
}
let (time, players) = state.get(world);
for player in players.iter() {
println!("{player:?}");
}
}
```
Note that "exclusive function systems" assume `&mut World` is present (and the first param). I think this is a fair assumption, given that the presence of `&mut World` is what defines the need for an exclusive system.
I added some targeted SystemParam `static` constraints, which removed the need for this:
``` rust
fn some_exclusive_system(state: &mut SystemState<(Res<'static, Time>, Query<&'static Player>)>) {}
```

## Changelog
- `ExclusiveSystem` trait (and implementations) has been removed in favor of sharing the `System` trait.
- `ExclusiveFunctionSystem` and `ExclusiveSystemParam` were added, enabling flexible exclusive function systems
- `&mut SystemState` and `&mut QueryState` now implement `ExclusiveSystemParam`
- Exclusive and parallel System configuration is now done via a unified `SystemDescriptor`, `IntoSystemDescriptor`, and `SystemContainer` api.
## Migration Guide
Calling `.exclusive_system()` is no longer required (or supported) for converting exclusive system functions to exclusive systems:
```rust
// Old (0.8)
app.add_system(some_exclusive_system.exclusive_system());
// New (0.9)
app.add_system(some_exclusive_system);
```
Converting "normal" parallel systems to exclusive systems is done by calling the exclusive ordering apis:
```rust
// Old (0.8)
app.add_system(some_system.exclusive_system().at_end());
// New (0.9)
app.add_system(some_system.at_end());
```
Query state in exclusive systems can now be cached via ExclusiveSystemParams, which should be preferred for clarity and performance reasons:
```rust
// Old (0.8)
fn some_system(world: &mut World) {
let mut transforms = world.query::<&Transform>();
for transform in transforms.iter(world) {
}
}
// New (0.9)
fn some_system(world: &mut World, transforms: &mut QueryState<&Transform>) {
for transform in transforms.iter(world) {
}
}
```
Fixes#6077
# Objective
- Make many_sprites and many_animated_sprites work again
## Solution
- Removed the extra transform from the camera bundle - not sure why it was necessary, since `Camera2dBundle::default()` already contains a transform with the same parameters.
---
# Objective
I was about to submit a PR to add these two examples to `bevy-website` and re-discovered the inconsistency.
Although it's not a major issue on the website where only the filenames are shown, this would help to visually distinguish the two examples in the list because the names are very prominent.
This also helps out when fuzzy-searching the codebase for these files.
## Solution
Rename `shapes` to `2d_shapes`. Now the filename matches the example name, and the naming structure matches the 3d example.
## Notes
@Nilirad proposed this in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4613#discussion_r862455631 but it had slipped away from my brain at that time.
# Objective
Fixes#6078. The `UiColor` component is unhelpfully named: it is unclear, ambiguous with border color and
## Solution
Rename the `UiColor` component (and associated fields) to `BackgroundColor` / `background_colorl`.
## Migration Guide
`UiColor` has been renamed to `BackgroundColor`. This change affects `NodeBundle`, `ButtonBundle` and `ImageBundle`. In addition, the corresponding field on `ExtractedUiNode` has been renamed to `background_color` for consistency.
