60ff660d42 cookbook: Added a second example to show "overlapping" transitions
Added another JSON example to show how transitions can
be easily overlapped when using ClutterAnimator (two
sequences of 5 transitions, simultaneous with two
sequences of 1 transition).

Modified the C JSON loader program so it can be used with
this example as well.

01fcd11efd cex100: Add an API to configure the GDL plane to use
Intel CE3100 and CE4100 have several planes (framebuffers) and a
hardware blender to blend the planes togeteher to produce the final
image.

clutter_cex100_set_plane() lets you configure which framebuffer clutter
will use for its rendering.

12a5bf2e06 offscreen-effect: Rename create_target to create_buffer
*** This is an API change ***

The create_target() virtual function should return a CoglHandle to a
texture; clutter_offscreen_effect_get_target(), instead, returns a
CoglMaterial to be painted in the implementation of the paint_target()
virtual function.

Instead of equating textures with materials, and confusing the user of
the API, we should mark the difference more prominently.

First of all, we should return a CoglMaterial* (now that we have that
as a public type) in get_target(); having handles all over the place
does not make it easier to distinguish the semantics of the virtual
functions.

Then we should rename create_target() to create_texture(), to make it
clear that what should be returned is a texture that is used as the
backing for the offscreen framebuffer.

6c40b10083 cookbook: Added recipe for signal handling in ClutterScript
Added a recipe explaining how to connect signals to handlers
in the JSON definition used by ClutterScript; also shows
how to connect the signals in code once the JSON has been
loaded.

Includes guidelines on writing handlers (i.e. need to use
-export-dynamic and non-static functions) and example
which connects a handler for motion events on a rectangle.

b532f95917 cookbook: Added introduction to and recipe on ClutterScript
Wrote an introduction to using ClutterScript with JSON. Focus
is on explaining why you might want to use it, basic principles
of operation (with annotated JSON sample), and how to map
data types from C to JSON.

Written simultaneously with a short recipe (uses the same sample
code) showing how to load a JSON file and retrieve objects
from it in code.

81481cd803 cookbook: Added recipe for handling pointer events on an actor
Added a recipe about handling enter, leave, and motion events
on an actor.

Gives some pointers to data available from motion events,

and covers how overlapping actors and reactivity of actors
can affect events occurring.

e332236b87 cookbook: Added a longer slideshow example
Cross-fading between two images is straightforward,
but cycling between more than two is more efficient
if done by copying COGL textures between the
two textures, rather than trying to reposition the
textures.

The example demonstrates how to reuse a pair of
textures to cycle through multiple images.

Also adapted Emmanuele's example code which uses Cogl
to produce a similar effect, but within a single texture.
This code loads two images specified on the command
line and cross-fades between them.

f03037d580 cogl-program: Adds use_uniform_xyz methods
Instead of exposing an API that provides an OpenGL state machine style
where you first have to bind the program to the context using
cogl_program_use() followed by updating uniforms using
cogl_program_uniform_xyz we now have uniform setter methods that take an
explicit CoglHandle for the program.

This deprecates cogl_program_use and all the cogl_program_uniform
variants and provides the following replacements:
    cogl_program_set_uniform_1i
    cogl_program_set_uniform_1f
    cogl_program_set_uniform_int

d14e294d86 Add ClutterTableLayout, a layout showing children in rows and columns
A TableLayout is a layout manager that allocates its children in rows
and columns. Each child is assigned to a cell (or more if a cell span
is set).

The supported child properties are:

  • x-expand and y-expand: if this cell with try to allocate the
    available extra space for the table.
  • x-fill and y-fill: if the child will get all the space available in
    the cell.
  • x-align and y-align: if the child does not fill the cell, then
    where the child will be aligned inside the cell.
  • row-span and col-span: number of cells the child will allocate for
    itself.

Also, the TableLayout has row-spacing and col-spacing for specifying
the space in pixels between rows and between columns.

We also include a simple test of the layout manager, and the
documentation updates.

The TableLayout was implemented starting from MxTable and
ClutterBoxLayout.

07b01888ba actor: Add allocate_align_fill()
Layout managers are using the same code to allocate a child while taking
into consideration:

  • horizontal and vertical alignment
  • horizontal and vertical fill
  • the preferred minimum and natural size, depending
    on the :request-mode property
  • the text direction for the horizontal alignment
  • an offset given by the fixed position properties

Given the amount of code involved, and the amount of details that can go
horribly wrong while copy and pasting such code in various classes - let
alone various projects - Clutter should provide an allocate() variant
that does the right thing in the right way. This way, we have a single
point of failure.

use logical "&" of the state with the modifiers we're interested
in to check which keys were pressed.

0cbfabcda4 stage: Add the NO_CLEAR_ON_PAINT hint
Some apps or some use cases don't need to clear the stage on immediate
rendering GPUs. A media player playing a fullscreen video or a
tile-based game, for instance.

These apps are redrawing the whole screen, so we can avoid clearing the
color buffer when preparing to paint the stage, since there is no
blending with the stage color being performed.

We can add an private set of hints to ClutterStage, and expose accessors
for each potential hint; the first hint is the 'no-clear' one.

dfea57b45a Add a Cogl texture 3D backend
This adds a publicly exposed experimental API for a 3D texture
backend. There is a feature flag which can be checked for whether 3D
textures are supported. Although we require OpenGL 1.2 which has 3D
textures in core, GLES only provides them through an extension so the
feature can be used to detect that.

The textures can be created with one of two new API functions :-

cogl_texture_3d_new_with_size

 and

cogl_texture_3d_new_from_data

There is also internally a new_from_bitmap function. new_from_data is
implemented in terms of this function.

The two constructors are effectively the only way to upload data to a
3D texture. It does not work to call glTexImage2D with the
GL_TEXTURE_3D target so the virtual for cogl_texture_set_region does
nothing. It would be possible to make cogl_texture_get_data do
something sensible like returning all of the images as a single long
image but this is not currently implemented and instead the virtual
just always fails. We may want to add API specific to the 3D texture
backend to get and set a sub region of the texture.

All of those three functions can throw a GError. This will happen if
the GPU does not support 3D textures or it does not support NPOTs and
an NPOT size is requested. It will also fail if the FBO extension is
not supported and the COGL_TEXTURE_NO_AUTO_MIPMAP flag is not
given. This could be avoided by copying the code for the
GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP TexParameter fallback, but in the interests of
keeping the code simple this is not yet done.

This adds a couple of functions to cogl-texture-driver for uploading
3D data and querying the 3D proxy
texture. prep_gl_for_pixels_upload_full now also takes sets the
GL_UNPACK_IMAGE_HEIGHT parameter so that 3D textures can have padding
between the images. Whenever 3D texture is uploading, both the height
of the images and the height of all of the data is specified (either
explicitly or implicilty from the CoglBitmap) so that the image height
can be deduced by dividing by the depth.

8940c30681 Make a public CoglBitmapError enum
There are many places in the texture backend that need to do
conversion using the CoglBitmap code. Currently none of these
functions can throw an error but they do return a value to indicate
failure. In future it would make sense if new texture functions could
throw an error and in that case they would want to use a CoglBitmap
error if the failure was due to the conversion. This moves the
internal CoglBitmap error from the quartz backend to be public in
cogl-bitmap.h so that it can be used in this way.

ab05f6bfb1 cogl-material: Add support for point sprites
This adds a new API call to enable point sprite coordinate generation
for a material layer:

void
cogl_material_set_layer_point_sprite_coords_enabled (CoglHandle material,
                                                     int layer_index,
                                                     gboolean enable);

There is also a corresponding get function.

Enabling point sprite coords simply sets the GL_COORD_REPLACE of the
GL_POINT_SPRITE glTexEnv when flusing the material. There is no
separate application control for glEnable(GL_POINT_SPRITE). Instead it
is left permanently enabled under the assumption that it has no affect
unless GL_COORD_REPLACE is enabled for a texture unit.

corresponds to the directory we enter when building to compile the

define multiple flavours that use the same WINSYS but should result in
different library names.

For example we are planning to combine the eglx and eglnative window

cogl_ortho is one of those APIs whos style was, for better or worse,
copied from OpenGL and for some inexplicable reason the near and far
arguments are inconsistent with the left, right, top, bottom arguments
because they don't take z coordinates they take a "distance" which
should be negative for a plane behind the viewer.

This updates the documentation to explain this.

d816acd834 shader-effect: Allow creating vertex shaders
By default, ShaderEffect creates a fragment shader; in order to be able
to deprecate ClutterShader we need a way for ShaderEffect sub-classes to
create a vertex shader if needed - By using a write-only, constructor
only property.

ClutterShader has, internally, a ClutterShaderType enumeration that can
be used exactly for this. We just need to expose it and create a GObject
property for ClutterShaderEffect.

e562ac20df cogl-color: Provide setters for all the channels
We only had getters for the red, green, blue and alpha channels of a
color. This meant that, if you wanted to change, say, the alpha
component of a color, one would need to query the red, green and blue
channels and use set_from_4ub() or set_from_4f().

Instead of this, just provide some setters for CoglColor, using the same
naming scheme than the existing getters.

a28440eafb clutter-texture: Remove confusing comments about realization
In 125bded81 some comments were introduced to ClutterTexture
complaining that it can have a Cogl texture before being
realized. Clutter always assumes that the single GL context is current
so there is no need to wait until the actor is realized before setting
a texture. This patch replaces the comments with clarification that
this should not be a problem.

The patch also changes the documentation about the realized state in
various places to clarify that it is acceptable to create any Cogl
resources before the actor is realized.

75f1dc90b0 cogl-material: Add support for setting the wrap mode for a layer
Previously, Cogl's texture coordinate system was effectively always
GL_REPEAT so that if an application specifies coordinates outside the
range 0→1 it would get repeated copies of the texture. It would
however change the mode to GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE if all of the coordinates
are in the range 0→1 so that in the common case that the whole texture
is being drawn with linear filtering it will not blend in edge pixels
from the opposite sides.

This patch adds the option for applications to change the wrap mode
per layer. There are now three wrap modes: 'repeat', 'clamp-to-edge'
and 'automatic'. The automatic map mode is the default and it
implements the previous behaviour. The wrap mode can be changed for
the s and t coordinates independently. I've tried to make the
internals support setting the r coordinate but as we don't support 3D
textures yet I haven't exposed any public API for it.

The texture backends still have a set_wrap_mode virtual but this value
is intended to be transitory and it will be changed whenever the
material is flushed (although the backends are expected to cache it so
that it won't use too many GL calls). In my understanding this value
was always meant to be transitory and all primitives were meant to set
the value before drawing. However there were comments suggesting that
this is not the expected behaviour. In particular the vertex buffer
drawing code never set a wrap mode so it would end up with whatever
the texture was previously used for. These issues are now fixed
because the material will always set the wrap modes.

There is code to manually implement clamp-to-edge for textures that
can't be hardware repeated. However this doesn't fully work because it
relies on being able to draw the stretched parts using quads with the
same values for tx1 and tx2. The texture iteration code doesn't
support this so it breaks. This is a separate bug and it isn't
trivially solved.

When flushing a material there are now extra options to set wrap mode
overrides. The overrides are an array of values for each layer that
specifies an override for the s, t or r coordinates. The primitives
use this to implement the automatic wrap mode. cogl_polygon also uses
it to set GL_CLAMP_TO_BORDER mode for its trick to render sliced
textures. Although this code has been added it looks like the sliced
trick has been broken for a while and I haven't attempted to fix it
here.

I've added a constant to represent the maximum number of layers that a
material supports so that I can size the overrides array. I've set it
to 32 because as far as I can tell we have that limit imposed anyway
because the other flush options use a guint32 to store a flag about
each layer. The overrides array ends up adding 32 bytes to each flush
options struct which may be a concern.

9ee6dd240b cogl: Support retained paths
This adds three new API calls:

  CoglHandle cogl_path_get()
  void cogl_path_set(CoglHandle path)
  CoglHandle cogl_path_copy(CoglHandle path)

All of the fields relating to the path have been moved from the Cogl
context to a new CoglPath handle type. The cogl context now just
contains a CoglPath handle. All of the existing path commands
manipulate the data in the current path handle. cogl_path_new now just
creates a new path handle and unrefs the old one.

The path handle can be stored for later with cogl_path_get. The path
can then be copied with cogl_path_copy. Internally it implements
copy-on-write semantics with an extra optimisation that it will only
copy the data if the new path is modified, but not if the original
path is modified. It can do this because the only way to modify a path
is by appending to it so the copied path is able to store its own path
length and only render the nodes up to that length. For this to work
the copied path also needs to keep its own copies of the path extents
because the parent path may change these by adding nodes.

The clip stack now uses the cogl_path_copy mechanism to store paths in
the stack instead of directly copying the data. This should save some
memory and processing time.

8df4a0b8fd actor: Add has_allocation() method
Add clutter_actor_has_allocation(), a method meant to be used when
deciding whether to call clutter_actor_get_allocation_box() or any
of its wrappers.

The get_allocation_box() method will, in case the allocation is invalid,
perform a costly re-allocation cycle to ensure that the returned box
is valid. The has_allocation() method is meant to be used if we have an
actor calling get_allocation_box() from outside the place where the
allocation is always guaranteed to be valid.

51a3e49c82 device: Allow updating devices from embedding toolkits
Embedding toolkits most likely will disable the event handling, so all
the input device code will not be executed. Unfortunately, the newly
added synthetic event generation of ENTER and LEAVE event pairs depends
on having input devices.

In order to unbreak things without reintroducing the madness of the
previous code we should allow embedding toolkits to just update the
state of an InputDevice by using the data contained inside the
ClutterEvent. This strategy has two obvious reasons:

  • the embedding toolkit is creating a ClutterEvent by translating
    a toolkit-native event anyway

  • this is exactly what ClutterStage does when processing events

We are, essentially, deferring input device handling to the embedding
toolkits, just like we're deferring event handling to them.

This adds three new texture backends.

  which only supports a single texture and only works with the
  GL_TEXTURE_2D target. The code is a lot simpler so it has a less
  overheads than dealing with slices. Cogl will use this wherever
  possible.

- CoglSubTexture: This is used to get a CoglHandle to represent a
  subregion of another texture. The texture can be used as if it was a
  standalone texture but it does not need to copy the resources.

- CoglAtlasTexture: This collects RGB and RGBA textures into a single
  GL texture with the aim of reducing texture state changes and
  increasing batching. The backend will try to manage the atlas and
  may move the textures around to close gaps in the texture. By
  default all textures will be placed in the atlas.

da392e24a5 docs: Fix some of the examples for the animation docs
In the example for clutter_actor_animate the "x" and "y" properties
are floats so they need to be passed float values in the var args
otherwise it will crash. There was also a missing comma.

There were some other minor problems with the behaviours example which
would cause it not to compile.

87d19b8d18 cogl: Fix gl equivalent of blend string
An example of what could be the equivalent of
    "RBG = REPLACE(TEXTURE)
     A   = MODULATE(PREVIOUS,TEXTURE)"
using the ARB_texture_env_combine extension was given, but it seems that
a few typo were left:
    * remove a spurius GL_COMBINE_ALPHA
    * use the _ALPHA variant of SRCN and OPERANDN when setting up the
      alpha combiner

5157da9fc8 x11: Switch back to RGB visuals by default
Since asking for ARGB by default is still somewhat experimental on X11
and not every toolkit or complex widgets (like WebKit) still do not like
dealing with ARGB visuals, we should switch back to RGB by default - now
that at least we know it works.

For applications (and toolkit integration libraries) that want to enable
the ClutterStage:use-alpha property there is a new function:

  void clutter_x11_set_use_argb_visual (gboolean use_argb);

which needs to be called before clutter_init().

The CLUTTER_DISABLE_ARGB_VISUAL environment variable can still be used
to force this value off at run-time.

1520ba6190 actor: Add internal child flag
ClutterActor checks, when destroying and reparenting, if the parent
actor implements the Container interface, and automatically calls the
remove() method to perform a clean removal.

Actors implementing Container, though, might have internal children;
that is, children that are not added through the Container API. It is
already possible to iterate through them using the Container API to
avoid breaking invariants - but calling clutter_actor_destroy() on
these children (even from the Container implementation, and thus outside
of Clutter's control) will either lead to leaks or to segmentation
faults.

Clutter needs a way to distinguish a clutter_actor_set_parent() done on
an internal child from one done on a "public" child; for this reason, a
push/pop pair of functions should be available to Actor implementations
to mark the section where they wish to add internal children:

  ➔ clutter_actor_push_internal ();
    ...
    clutter_actor_set_parent (child1, parent);
    clutter_actor_set_parent (child2, parent);
    ...
  ➔ clutter_actor_pop_internal ();

The set_parent() call will automatically set the newly added
INTERNAL_CHILD private flag on each child, and both
clutter_actor_destroy() and clutter_actor_unparent() will check for the
flag before deciding whether to call the Container's remove method.

2e6397c391 box-layout: Add knobs for controlling animations
ClutterLayoutManager does not have any state associated with it, and
defers all the state to its sub-classes.

The BoxLayout is thus in charge of controlling:

  • whether or not animations should be used
  • the duration of the animation
  • the easing mode of the animation

By adding three new properties:

  • ClutterBoxLayout:use-animations
  • ClutterBoxLayout:easing-duration
  • ClutterBoxLayout:easing-mode

And their relative accessors pairs we can make BoxLayout decide whether
or not, and with which parameters, call the begin_animation() method of
ClutterLayoutManager.

The test-box-layout has been modified to reflect this new functionality,
by checking the key-press event for the 'a' key symbol to toggle the use
of animations.

f94a903d9e layout: Add animation support to LayoutManager
In order to animate a fluid layout we cannot use the common animation
code paths as they will override the size request and allocation paths
that are handled by the layout manager itself.

One way to introduce animations in the allocation sequence is to use a
Timeline and an Alpha to compute a progress value and then use that
value to interpolate an ActorBox between the initial and final states of
the animation - with the initial state being the last allocation of the
child prior to the animation start, and the final state the allocation
of the child at the end; for every frame of the Timeline we then queue a
relayout on the layout manager's container, which will result in an
animation.

ClutterLayoutManager is the most likely place to add a generic API for
beginning and ending an animation, as well as the place to provide a
default code path to create the ancillary Timeline and Alpha instances
needed to drive the animation.

A LayoutManager sub-class will need to:

  • call clutter_layout_manager_begin_animation() whenever it should
    animate between two states, for instance: whenever a layout property
    changes value;
  • eventually override begin_animation() and end_animation() in case
    further state needs to be set up, and then chain up to the default
    implementation provided by LayoutManager;
  • if a completely different implementation is required, the layout
    manager sub-class should override begin_animation(), end_animation()
    and get_animation_progress().

Inside the allocate() implementation the sub-class should also
interpolate between the last known allocation of a child and the newly
computed allocation.

999359d64c Add ActorBox animation methods
ClutterActorBox should have an interpolate() method that allows to
compute the intermediate values between two states, given a progress
value, e.g.:

        clutter_actor_box_interpolate (start, end, alpha, &result);

Another utility method, useful for layout managers, is a modifier
that clamps the members of the actor box to the nearest integer
value.

1374b5aac9 Add clutter_get_current_event
When getting signals from higher level toolkits, occasionally
one wants access to the underlying event; say for a Button
widget's "clicked" signal, to get the keyboard state.

Rather than having all of the highlevel widgets emit
ClutterEvent just for the more unusual use cases,
add a global function to access the event state.
