* Added a new macro SNAME() that constructs and caches a local stringname.
* Subsequent usages use the cached version.
* Since these use a global static variable, a second refcounter of static usages need to be kept for cleanup time.
* Replaced all theme usages by this new macro.
* Replace all signal emission usages by this new macro.
* Replace all call_deferred usages by this new macro.
This is part of ongoing work to optimize GUI and the editor.
The Adaptive text editor theme is the default, and has therefore
been renamed Default for consistency with the Default theme preset.
It keeps its automatic dark/light switch status.
The Default text editor theme was actually a legacy Godot 2-style theme,
so it has been renamed to Godot 2 to match the theme preset.
Its background color has been changed to be a constant opaque color,
since the new editor theme made the theme look less good on a translucent
background. The previous background color on light theme also lacked
contrast.
This uses the accent color to match pressed CheckButtons after they
were updated. Checked checkboxes are now more prominent in the user's
peripheral vision, which can be useful at times. This also matches
how checkboxes look in most operating systems and web browsers.
More saturated icons go better with the new editor theme.
These color changes only apply when using a dark theme.
The editor icon saturation can still be adjusted in the Editor Settings.
Setting the editor icon saturation setting to 0.77 should roughly match
the old icon saturation.
The editor theme now makes use of rounded corners and less borders
to follow modern visual trends.
The default theme's colors were also tweaked to make the blue hue
more subtle (similar to the Arc theme, which was removed as a
consequence). The Alien theme was replaced by a Breeze Dark theme,
which should blend in well with the KDE theme.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
This also makes borders always display in the editor theme,
even if the editor scale is below 100%. Otherwise, "focus" outlines
would vanish when using an editor scale below 100%,
which harms usability.
