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.
OpenGl_LayerList::Render() now calls glDepthMask(GL_TRUE) before clearing depth buffer.
Depth buffer is now cleared even if ZLayer with this command has no structures.
Graphic3d_ZLayerSettings - public fields have been replaced by methods.
Added new property Origin defining local coordinate system for all Layer objects.
Syntax of Draw Harness command VZLayer has been redesigned.
Graphic3d_CStructure now stores bounding box with double precision floats.
OpenGl_BVHTreeSelector - frustum culling now works with double precision floats.
Graphic3d_TransformPers now takes Graphic3d_Camera definition as argument
for methods applying transformation.
Graphic3d_TransformPers::Apply() now computes Graphic3d_TMF_TriedronPers
transformation in the following way:
- The object is moved onto Z focus distance.
- The object is expected to be defined in pixels.
- The Z coordinate on anchor point is used as offset from the view corner in pixels.
- It is now possible to define not only corners of the view, but also middle of the side.
- Graphic3d_TMF_TriedronPers now works with perspective projection.
OpenGl_LayerList::ChangeLayer() - fixed removing of the element in old ZLayer.
OpenGl_Layer::BoundingBox() now takes into account bounding box
of Graphic3d_TMF_TriedronPers presentations for Z-fit operation.
Quantity_ColorRGBA has been introduced as convenient structure holding Vec4 for OpenGL.
Graphic3d_PolygonOffset has been added as replacement for TEL_POFFSET_PARAM.
Duplicating definition of Hatch Styles TEL_HS_*** has been removed;
Aspect_HatchStyle enum now follows values of TEL_HS_*** for compatibility.
TelCullMode enum has been removed.
Aspect_AspectLine has been merged into Graphic3d_AspectLine3d.
Aspect_AspectMarker has been merged into Graphic3d_AspectMarker3d.
Aspect_AspectFillArea has been merged into Graphic3d_AspectFillArea3d.
Graphic3d_CAspectFillArea have been removed.
OpenGl_AspectLine now stores Graphic3d_AspectLine3d as class field.
OpenGl_AspectMarker now stores Graphic3d_AspectMarker3d as class field.
OpenGl_AspectText now stores Graphic3d_AspectText3d as class field.
OpenGl_AspectFace now stores Graphic3d_AspectFillArea3d as class field.
Graphic3d_AspectFillArea3d - back face culling is now enabled by default.
TKOpenGl now relies on Graphic3d_Group::IsClosed() flag to disable face culling.
StdPrs_ShadedShape now does not modify aspect for different culling modes.
Headers InterfaceGraphic_Graphic3d.hxx, InterfaceGraphic_telem.hxx, InterfaceGraphic_tgl_all.hxx
defining obsolete structures CALL_DEF_COLOR, CALL_DEF_POINT,
CALL_DEF_MATERIAL, CALL_DEF_TRANSFORM_PERSISTENCE, TEL_POINT, TEL_COLOUR
have been removed.
Useless and broken test case bugs/vis/buc60821 has been removed.
OpenGl_Workspace::myAspectFaceApplied and myAspectMarkerApplied have been replaced
from OpenGl_AspectFace*/OpenGl_AspectMarker*
to Handle(Graphic3d_AspectFillArea3d)/Handle(Graphic3d_AspectMarker3d).
This eliminates reading from freed memory
(e.g. when OpenGl_AspectFace is allocated on stack like in OpenGl_Trihedron).
OpenGl_PrimitiveArray::drawEdges() - fix drawing non-indexed array from VBO (access violation due to NULL handle).
AIS_Dimension::DrawArrow() - added missing initialization of 3D arrow aspect.
AIS_Manipulator::Compute() now creates dedicated Face Aspect for each axis.
V3d_CircularGrid, V3d_RectangularGrid now create dedicated line aspects with different color.
AIS_InteractiveObject::SetMaterial() - do not modify global ShadingAspect.
Expose interface of OpenGl_View (OpenGL graphics rendering methods) to client code
and collecting all high-level API methods of application views in V3d_View class.
1) Exposing interface of OpenGl_View:
The OpenGl_View inherits from new class Graphic3d_CView.
Graphic3d_CView is an interface class that declares abstract methods for managing displayed structures,
display properties and a base layer code that implements computation
and management of HLR (or more broadly speaking view-depended) structures.
In new implementation it takes place of eliminated Visual3d_View.
As before the instance of Graphic3d_CView is still completely managed by V3d_View classes.
It can be accessed through V3d_View interface but normally this should not be required as all its methods are completely wrapped.
In more details, a concrete specialization of Graphic3d_CView is created and returned by graphical driver on request.
Right after creation the views is directly used for setting rendering properties and adding graphical structures to be displayed.
The rendering of graphics is possible after mapping a window and activating the view.
The direct setting of properties makes obsolete usage of intermediate structures with display parameter
like Visual3d_ContextView and etc (the whole package of Visual3d become redundant).
2) Collecting all high-level API methods of application views in V3d package:
The patch includes elimination of Visual3d layer.
All of its methods that could be previously used by application are now exposed and should be accessed on the level of V3d entities.
- Introduced new class Graphic3d_CView.
This is a base class for render views.
Made possible to specialize concrete instances of the class by graphical driver.
- Moved all methods managing rendering views into interface of Graphic3d_CView.
The corresponding methods were removed from interface of graphical driver.
3) Eliminated Visual3d package:
- Logic of managing display of structures was put from Visual3d_ViewManager into Graphic3d_StructureManager.
- Removed Visual3d_View class. Logic of managing computed structures was put into base layer of Graphi3d_CView.
- Removed all intermediate structures for storing view parameters e.g. Visual3d_ContextView.
All settings are kept by instances of Graphic3d_CView
- Removed Visual3d_Light intermediate class.
All light properties are still stored in Graphic3d_CLight structure.
The structure is directly access by instance of V3d_Light classes.
- Moved all needed enumerations into Graphic3d package.
4) Update package D3DHost to new changes.
5) Update code of OCCT samples to new changes.
Missing headers added; includes of headers "Handle_...hxx" removed.
Misuses of macro Handle() and its use in typedefs corrected.
Alias classes Profile and Option are removed from IFSelect; ones defined in MoniTool are used directly.
Removed header files defining only Handle classes (except Image_PixMap_Handle.hxx)
Classes SelectMgr_BaseFrustum and now inherit Standard_Transient and can be manipulated by Handle (not NCollection_Handle)
Fixed reference-type local variable pointing to temporary object
Use of handle in conditional expressions and comparisons to NULL are replaced by call to method IsNull()
Add one more pre-defined Z-layer Graphic3d_ZLayerId_BotOSD.
Define new Transformation Persistence flags Graphic3d_TMF_2d and Graphic3d_TMF_2d_IsTopDown
for displaying objects in screen coordinates.
Anchor point defines angle of the screen to display the object in similar way as for Graphic3d_TMF_TriedronPers.
Extend Draw Harness command vdisplay with new options:
-overlay as alias for -toposd.
-underlay and -botosd.
-noselect to prevent automatic selection activation.
-dispMode and -highMode to define displaying and highlighting modes.
-2d, -2dtopdown and -3d to manage displaying in screen coordinates.
-trsfPers and -trsfPersPos for Transformation Persistence options.
Drop command vsettransmode, replaced by vdisplay.

Obsolete documentation files removed from DrawResources.
The purpose of this functionality is to bring a basic ray-tracing solution to existing OCCT visualization toolkit (TKOpenGL).
Currently ray-tracing visualization core supports sharp shadows, specular reflections, transparency and adaptive anti-aliasing.
However, the basis for all ray-tracing algorithms is versatile, allowing you to add new ray-tracing features easily (such as ambient occlusion).
All ray-tracing computations are performed on the GPU using OpenCL framework, allowing real-time rendering performance.
It is important to note, that real-time ray-tracing is possible using high-performance GPUs with support of OpenCL 1.1 and higher (such as NVIDIA GeForce 660 or ATI/AMD Radeon 7850).
When using low-end GPUs (such as NVIDIA GeForce 640) the ray-tracing performance may slow down significantly.
Therefore, even with NVIDIA GeForce 640 you can render scenes with the millions of triangles. The support of OpenCL-enabled CPUs and integrated graphics cards is not guaranteed.
