<p>Right, we added the ability to square samples later on, as an
option. If you already square samples and do that by default, you
can keep that for Cycles4D. The change in the code is merely on
the Blender UI part and Blender -> Cycles exporter. No changes
in the kernel. :)<br>

<p>Hey everyone,<br>
</p>
<p>The 2.79 release still has the Squared Samples option.
It was removed in master afterwards.</p>
<p>I like the various UI simplifications that were made
lately in Cycles, 2.8x gives us the chance to revisit
several things and simplify the UI experience. I suggest
to keep all the changes, and check what else we can
improve during 2.8x. We can revisit at any later time,
if needed. <br>

<div>I think squared samples is a better approach,
as long as small units increments don't change
as much. No matter what, I got used to having it
checked and teach my students to do it so.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I suggest we keep it in 2.79 and discuss it
for 2.8 in the context of other UI changes.</div>

<div>IMPORTANT: Sampling presets are squared
samples and did not get revised after the
change.</div>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is one of the
first steps in planned
changes to simplify
Cycles sampling for
2.8, by the end the
settings should look
quite different and
there will be more
readjustment needed.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We've seen users
not realize this
option is enabled or
not, leading to too
many or not enough
samples by accident. I
think it will be
better in the long run
to have just a single
way to specify the
number of samples. But
if we get more
feedback about this
being a problem we can
consider restoring it.</div>
