Some tasks overlap with the tasks from this page

May be it makes sense to have a single list?<br>
And Just about wireframes. There is a good approach described here
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://codeflow.org/entries/2012/aug/02/easy-wireframe-display-with-barycentric-coordinates/">http://codeflow.org/entries/2012/aug/02/easy-wireframe-display-with-barycentric-coordinates/</a>
. Also, I have already thought about flat shading, so I can pick
this two tasks for the near future.<br>

<div>For the upcoming week:</div>

</div>
I've been writing up some Viewport 2.8 ideas / docs / designs
and will share these very soon. Initially it will be "what
merwin thinks", but should give us something to talk about and
arrive at "what Blender folks think". And then on to planning
& actions & great success.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Here's a list of topics from my notebook -- I can pick 3 or
4 to expand on by next week, prioritized by your responses. A
lot of these get into technical details, but always important
is the idea that the visuals should support and enhance the
task at hand.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- fundamental drawing styles: surface (full materials),
shape/form (solid, matcap), structure (polygons)</div>
<div>- wireframes!<br>
</div>
<div>- selection outlines, indication</div>
<div>- mixed drawing: wires atop surfaces</div>
<div>- how to combine techniques -- material + nice outlines +
screen door stippling for example</div>
<div>- matrix stacks</div>
<div>- state setting, AKA "revenge of glLineWidth"<br>
</div>
<div>- immediate-mode-style drawing</div>
<div>- building draw batches -- GAWAIN</div>
<div>- splitting draw batches -- by material, for low VRAM
systems, etc.</div>
<div>- batch caching, animation</div>
<div>- supported systems & GPUs<br>
</div>
<div>- OpenGL & Vulkan roadmap</div>
<div>- partial updates / dirty normals</div>
<div>- GPU data request -- shader/technique declares what it
needs</div>
<div>- OpenSubdiv enhancements needed</div>
<div>- reflection / env maps / image based lighting</div>
<div>- real-time shadows</div>
<div>- image & texture enhancements needed</div>
<div>- material enhancements needed</div>
<div>- Blender --> Unreal pipeline<br>
</div>
<div>- Blender --> [your favorite engine] pipeline</div>

<div>Hello devs,<br>
<br>
</div>
Any interesting viewport updates for the week of April
11th to April 18th? Any plans for the upcoming week? I
will be aggregating information on the Viewport
Reports wiki page[1].<br>
<br>
</div>
Thanks,<br>
