RenderMethod effects methods would have changes:
+ update() //update the effects if any
- prepare() -> region() //update the effect drawing region
- effect() -> render() //draw the effect
enhanced the rendering composition target to better support features such as
alpha blending, blending, masking, post effects, and more.
This allows rasterizers to prepare the composition context with more precise control.
Additionally, resolved a crash in the software engine's post-effect process
caused by a buffer size mismatch during XY buffer flipping.

Scene effects are typically applied to modify
the final appearance of a rendered scene,
such as adding a blur effect.
Each effect would have a different number of parameters
to control its visual properties. The Scene::push() interface
uses variadic arguments to accommodate various cases.
Users should refer to the SceneEffect API documentation
and pass the parameters exactly as required for the specific
effect type. For instance, GaussianBlur expects 3 parameters
which are:
- sigma(float)[greater than 0]
- direction(int)[both: 0 / horizontal: 1 / vertical: 2]
- border(int)[extend: 0 / wrap: 1]
- quality(int)[0 ~ 100]
and, scene->push(SceneEffect::GaussianBlur, 5.0f, 0, 0, 100);
New Experimental APIs:
- SceneEffect::ClearAll
- SceneEffect::GaussianBlur
- Result Scene::push(SceneEffect effect, ...);
Example:
- examples/SceneEffect
issue: https://github.com/thorvg/thorvg/issues/374
The anti-aliased outline color was incorrectly blended
at the multiply option.
The fix can be observed in the example:
'examples/lottie/resourcesguitar.json'
in order to do this, RenderMehthod::blend() method introduced
`bool direct` for figuring out the intermediate composition.
deprecate the `identifier()` APIs by replacing them with `type()`.
ThorVG is going to introduce an instance `id()`,
and this could be confused with the `identifier()` methods.
with this new type() method can reduce the memory size
by removing unncessary type data.
New Experimental C APIs:
- enum Tvg_Type
- Tvg_Result tvg_paint_get_type(const Tvg_Paint* paint, Tvg_Type* type)
- Tvg_Result tvg_gradient_get_type(const Tvg_Gradient* grad, Tvg_Type* type)
New Experimental C++ APIs:
- Type Paint::type() const
- Type Fill::type() const
- Type LinearGradient::type() const
- Type RadialGradient::type() const
- Type Shape::type() const
- Type Scene::type() const
- Type Picture::type() const
- Type Text::type() const
Deprecated C APIs:
- enum Tvg_Identifier
- Tvg_Result tvg_paint_get_identifier(const Tvg_Paint* paint, Tvg_Identifier* identifier)
- Tvg_Result tvg_gradient_get_identifier(const Tvg_Gradient* grad, Tvg_Identifier* identifier)
Deprecated C++ APIs:
- enum class Type
- uint32_t Paint::identifier() const
- uint32_t Fill::identifier() const
- static uint32_t Picture::identifier()
- static uint32_t Scene::identifier()
- static uint32_t Shape::identifier()
- static uint32_t LinearGradient:identifier()
- static uint32_T RadialGradient::identfier()
Removed Experimental APIs:
- static uint32_t Text::identifier()
issue: https://github.com/thorvg/thorvg/issues/1372
This commit addresses an issue where paints lost their
composition context when drawings occurred without any updates.
Now, paints will consistently retain the composition context,
ensuring accurate rendering.
Issue: https://github.com/thorvg/thorvg/issues/2058
Previously, the logic was set to halt rendering when any part of the paints,
particularly bitmap-based images, failed to render.
This update modifies the behavior to continue drawing the scene,
allowing for the successful rendering of other elements.
issue: https://github.com/thorvg/thorvg/issues/1951
dispose of the resources at the end of the paint deletion.
This will help retain the resources of the retained paints
and reuse them after reconstructing the next scene.
Get rid of the polymorphism function table,
use the switch directly instead.
We profiled, both binary & performance is better than before.
Tested on a local machine (single thread):
- Lottie: 2ms improved
- Binary: -0.5kb
This correction ensures a consistent use of 'ref' and 'unref' for paints to release memory properly.
The memory leak occurred when a picture was not pushed to a valid canvas.
This issue was reported by the unit-test memory sanitizer.
