The table of named colors has been compressed and moved out
from Quantity_Color.cxx into Quantity_ColorTable.pxx.
Quantity_NameOfColor - grayscale enumeration values have been re-ordered to fix discontinuity.
Duplicating colors has been merged within enumeration:
CHARTREUSE=CHARTREUSE1, GOLD=GOLD1, GREEN=GREEN1, ORANGE=ORANGE1,
ORANGERED=ORANGERED1, RED=RED1, TOMATO=TOMATO1, YELLOW=YELLOW1.
Added aliases to several other common colors:
BLUE=BLUE1, CYAN=CYAN1, LIGHTCYAN=LIGHTCYAN1, MAGENTA=MAGENTA1.
Quantity_Color class definition has been cleaned to follow OCCT coding style.
Quantity_Color now stores NCollection_Vec3<float> as class field instead of separate components.
Removed unused class Quantity_ColorDefinitionError.
New methods Quantity_Color::Convert_LinearRGB_To_sRGB() and Quantity_Color::Convert_sRGB_To_LinearRGB()
converting RGB components from linear to non-linear sRGB colorspace and vice versa.
Image_PixMap::PixelColor() and Image_PixMap::SetPixelColor() methods have been extended
with an optional argument for performing linearization/delinearization of 8-bit sRGB pixel formats.
Draw Harness command AISColor has been corrected to take color name instead of enumeration index.
A new command vbackground is created. Old background commands are made aliases for the newly created command (including vsetdefaultbg).
Tests are modified using newly added command vbackground.
Weighted, Blended Order-Independent Transparency algorithm has been added rasterization pipeline.
In contrast to classical blending transparency it makes transparent objects look independent
from point of view. It also gives better depth occlusion when being used together with a weight factor
based on value of a GL depth buffer. The feature supports desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES 3.0, ANGLE
and can be used together with MSAA on desktop GL.
To be used it require availability of:
1) Shaders pipeline.
2) Floating point color format for framebuffer (GL_ARB_color_buffer_float).
3) Multiple render targets (GL_ARB_draw_buffers).
Patch does not modify API and does not require application porting.
It adds new rendering options to Graphic3d_RenderingParams structure:
a) Transparency method from enumeration.
b) Scalar factor [0-1] controlling influence of a fragment's depth to its visibility.
Patch also simplifies processing of transparent objects for standard method:
rendering priority of transparent graphical structures is managed automatically,
therefore there is no need to care about it at application's side.
