The FontDrawer used in TextEdit was previously not being flushed before drawing auto-completion boxes. This was causing rendering artifacts.
This PR also increases the backward compatibility of the MultiRect OFF mode, by forcing a flush after each character.
Adds optional hierarchical culling to the 2D rendering (within VisualServer).
Each canvas item maintains a bound in local space of the item itself and all child / grandchild items. This allows branches to be culled at once when they don't intersect a viewport.
The bound Rect2 was previously incorrect because bone transforms need to be applied to verts in bone space, rather than local space. This was previously resulting in skinned Polygon2Ds being incorrectly culled.
Large groups of similar rects can be processed more efficiently using the MultiRect command. Processing common to the group can be done as a one off, instead of per rect.
Adds the new API to VisualServerCanvas, and uses the new functionality from Font, BitmapFont, DynamicFont and TileMap, via the VisualServerCanvasHelper class.
Later logic using the `pairable_mask` would catch cases preventing pairing callbacks between geometry. However the collision checks were still taking place, wasting performance.
Here we utilize the `tree_mask` feature of BVH to totally eliminate unnecessary collision checks between geometry.
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
To allow maximum flexibility in the initial rollout, VisualServer functions were not bound in order to prevent compatibility issues if the API changed.
These functions are now bound to allow direct use from the VisualServer.
The functions that used it already use a threadsafe FIFO queue
to communicate between threads and a sync to have the main thread
wait for the render thread.
Fixes#35718
