- Introduced a new `Boundary Padding` preference in the Cutout Tool with a default of 2 px and a configurable range of 1-4 px.
- Updated the Cutout client to establish inward mapping from the final Mask, sampling in a fixed direction and processing independent material RGBA and Depth.
- Enhanced the handling of RGBA and Depth during cutout operations, ensuring proper mapping and preservation of source data.
- Added tests to validate the new boundary padding functionality and its integration with existing cutout processes.
feat(geometry): remove overall mesh smoothing from geometry nodes
- Removed the `Smooth` input from several geometry node groups to eliminate unnecessary overall mesh smoothing.
- Retained `Smooth Weight` for depth nodes while removing it from Cutout and Relief Plane nodes.
- Ensured that boundary, normal, and fill smoothing behaviors remain intact and consistent.
- Updated tests and documentation to reflect the changes in node interfaces and behaviors.
feat(normals): scale tangent normals with depth
- Reused the existing `o_normal_reduction` attribute to adjust Tangent Normal strength based on the geometry's `Depth Scale`.
- Ensured that Tangent Normal strength is consistent with the geometry depth, preserving full strength for materials that do not provide the attribute.
- Updated tests to verify the correct behavior of normal strength adjustments in both Tangent and Object Space.
- Implemented a preview tool for rectifying images with interactive aspect controls in `preview.py`.
- Added tests for depth metadata loading to ensure consistent schema usage in `test_depth_metadata.py`.
- Developed comprehensive tests for cutout calibration processes in `test_cutout_calibration.py`, including stability checks and depth calibration.
- Created tests for frame compositing operations in `test_frame_compositing.py`, ensuring correct handling of depth and transparency.
- Introduced material slot inheritance functionality in `material_slots.py` to manage geometry material assignments.
- Built shared shader nodes for material processing in `shader.py`, including roughness and bump mapping setups.
- Introduced tests for boundary smoothing in `test_boundary_smoothing.py`, verifying that smoothing reduces stair-step artifacts while preserving boundary integrity.
- Added tests for cutout boundary behavior in `test_cutout_boundary.py`, ensuring proper handling of boundary triangles and normal blending.
- Created `test_temporary_attributes.py` to check the cleanup of temporary attributes across depth modifier branches, ensuring no warnings are raised.
- Implemented point culling functionality in `test_validity.py`, confirming that invalid points are removed without affecting adjacent geometry.
- Developed boundary smoothing logic in `boundary_smoothing.py`, allowing for depth smoothing while maintaining edge integrity.
- Added cutout boundary management in `cutout_boundary.py`, including functions for removing boundary triangles and tapering thickness profiles.
- Implemented validity checks in `validity.py` to ensure proper deletion of invalid vertices and associated wire edges.
- Introduced color_image.py for preparing standalone color images for tests.
- Added hdr_image.py to create HDR textures for testing.
- Implemented test_image_depth_panorama.py to evaluate panorama topology, UVs, and depth discontinuities.
- Created test_shadeless.py to validate the opacity and HDR color endpoints of the Shadeless group.
- Developed moge3_export.py for exporting dynamic MoGe-3 backbone and ONNX graphs.
- Added material.py to inherit material slots onto generated geometry.
- Built image_depth_panorama.py to construct a quad panorama with depth separation and sampling.
- Implement tests for image layer functionality including alpha curve and depth layer behavior.
- Create tests for image plane evaluation and modifier input handling.
- Add tests to verify the saved asset inventory and its persistence.
- Introduce tests for the documentation command to ensure correct project version deployment.
- Validate the extension manifest structure and required permissions.
- Develop tests for the packaging process, ensuring correct platform handling and dependency management.
- Enhance image depth plane group functionality with new split threshold input and surface processing.
