# Objective
- Fixes#16472.
## Solution
- Add flags to `SpritePlugin` and `UiPlugin` to disable their picking
backends.
## Testing
- The change is pretty trivial, so not much to test!
---
## Migration Guide
- `UiPlugin` now contains an extra `add_picking` field if
`bevy_ui_picking_backend` is enabled.
- `SpritePlugin` is no longer a unit struct, and has one field if
`bevy_sprite_picking_backend` is enabled (otherwise no fields).
# Objective
Needing to derive `AnimationEvent` for `Event` is unnecessary, and the
trigger logic coupled to it feels like we're coupling "event producer"
logic with the event itself, which feels wrong. It also comes with a
bunch of complexity, which is again unnecessary. We can have the
flexibility of "custom animation event trigger logic" without this
coupling and complexity.
The current `animation_events` example is also needlessly complicated,
due to it needing to work around system ordering issues. The docs
describing it are also slightly wrong. We can make this all a non-issue
by solving the underlying ordering problem.
Related to this, we use the `bevy_animation::Animation` system set to
solve PostUpdate animation order-of-operations issues. If we move this
to bevy_app as part of our "core schedule", we can cut out needless
`bevy_animation` crate dependencies in these instances.
## Solution
- Remove `AnimationEvent`, the derive, and all other infrastructure
associated with it (such as the `bevy_animation/derive` crate)
- Replace all instances of `AnimationEvent` traits with `Event + Clone`
- Store and use functions for custom animation trigger logic (ex:
`clip.add_event_fn()`). For "normal" cases users dont need to think
about this and should use the simpler `clip.add_event()`
- Run the `Animation` system set _before_ updating text
- Move `bevy_animation::Animation` to `bevy_app::Animation`. Remove
unnecessary `bevy_animation` dependency from `bevy_ui`
- Adjust `animation_events` example to use the simpler `clip.add_event`
API, as the workarounds are no longer necessary
This is polishing work that will land in 0.15, and I think it is simple
enough and valuable enough to land in 0.15 with it, in the interest of
making the feature as compelling as possible.
# Objective
1. UI texture slicing chops and scales an image to fit the size of a
node and isn't meant to place any constraints on the size of the node
itself, but because the required components changes required `ImageSize`
and `ContentSize` for nodes with `UiImage`, texture sliced nodes are
laid out using an `ImageMeasure`.
2. In 0.14 users could spawn a `(UiImage, NodeBundle)` which would
display an image stretched to fill the UI node's bounds ignoring the
image's instrinsic size. Now that `UiImage` requires `ContentSize`,
there's no option to display an image without its size placing
constrains on the UI layout (unless you force the `Node` to a fixed
size, but that's not a solution).
3. It's desirable that the `Sprite` and `UiImage` share similar APIs.
Fixes#16109
## Solution
* Remove the `Component` impl from `ImageScaleMode`.
* Add a `Stretch` variant to `ImageScaleMode`.
* Add a field `scale_mode: ImageScaleMode` to `Sprite`.
* Add a field `mode: UiImageMode` to `UiImage`.
* Add an enum `UiImageMode` similar to `ImageScaleMode` but with
additional UI specific variants.
* Remove the queries for `ImageScaleMode` from Sprite and UI extraction,
and refer to the new fields instead.
* Change `ui_layout_system` to update measure funcs on any change to
`ContentSize`s to enable manual clearing without removing the component.
* Don't add a measure unless `UiImageMode::Auto` is set in
`update_image_content_size_system`. Mutably deref the `Mut<ContentSize>`
if the `UiImage` is changed to force removal of any existing measure
func.
## Testing
Remove all the constraints from the ui_texture_slice example:
```rust
//! This example illustrates how to create buttons with their textures sliced
//! and kept in proportion instead of being stretched by the button dimensions
use bevy::{
color::palettes::css::{GOLD, ORANGE},
prelude::*,
winit::WinitSettings,
};
fn main() {
App::new()
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
// Only run the app when there is user input. This will significantly reduce CPU/GPU use.
.insert_resource(WinitSettings::desktop_app())
.add_systems(Startup, setup)
.add_systems(Update, button_system)
.run();
}
fn button_system(
mut interaction_query: Query<
(&Interaction, &Children, &mut UiImage),
(Changed<Interaction>, With<Button>),
>,
mut text_query: Query<&mut Text>,
) {
for (interaction, children, mut image) in &mut interaction_query {
let mut text = text_query.get_mut(children[0]).unwrap();
match *interaction {
Interaction::Pressed => {
**text = "Press".to_string();
image.color = GOLD.into();
}
Interaction::Hovered => {
**text = "Hover".to_string();
image.color = ORANGE.into();
}
Interaction::None => {
**text = "Button".to_string();
image.color = Color::WHITE;
}
}
}
}
fn setup(mut commands: Commands, asset_server: Res<AssetServer>) {
let image = asset_server.load("textures/fantasy_ui_borders/panel-border-010.png");
let slicer = TextureSlicer {
border: BorderRect::square(22.0),
center_scale_mode: SliceScaleMode::Stretch,
sides_scale_mode: SliceScaleMode::Stretch,
max_corner_scale: 1.0,
};
// ui camera
commands.spawn(Camera2d);
commands
.spawn(Node {
width: Val::Percent(100.0),
height: Val::Percent(100.0),
align_items: AlignItems::Center,
justify_content: JustifyContent::Center,
..default()
})
.with_children(|parent| {
for [w, h] in [[150.0, 150.0], [300.0, 150.0], [150.0, 300.0]] {
parent
.spawn((
Button,
Node {
// width: Val::Px(w),
// height: Val::Px(h),
// horizontally center child text
justify_content: JustifyContent::Center,
// vertically center child text
align_items: AlignItems::Center,
margin: UiRect::all(Val::Px(20.0)),
..default()
},
UiImage::new(image.clone()),
ImageScaleMode::Sliced(slicer.clone()),
))
.with_children(|parent| {
// parent.spawn((
// Text::new("Button"),
// TextFont {
// font: asset_server.load("fonts/FiraSans-Bold.ttf"),
// font_size: 33.0,
// ..default()
// },
// TextColor(Color::srgb(0.9, 0.9, 0.9)),
// ));
});
}
});
}
```
This should result in a blank window, since without any constraints the
texture slice image nodes should be zero-sized. But in main the image
nodes are given the size of the underlying unsliced source image
`textures/fantasy_ui_borders/panel-border-010.png`:
<img width="321" alt="slicing"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cbd74c9c-14cd-4b4d-93c6-7c0152bb05ee">
For this PR need to change the lines:
```
UiImage::new(image.clone()),
ImageScaleMode::Sliced(slicer.clone()),
```
to
```
UiImage::new(image.clone()).with_mode(UiImageMode::Sliced(slicer.clone()),
```
and then nothing should be rendered, as desired.

# Objective
`UiImage` isn't just a general image component now, it's the defining
component for the image widget so it belongs in the image widget's
module.
# Objective
- `MeshPickingBackend` and `SpritePickingBackend` do not have the
`Plugin` suffix
- `DefaultPickingPlugins` is masquerading as a `Plugin` when in reality
it should be a `PluginGroup`
- Fixes#16081.
## Solution
- Rename some structures:
|Original Name|New Name|
|-|-|
|`MeshPickingBackend`|`MeshPickingPlugin`|
|`MeshPickingBackendSettings`|`MeshPickingSettings`|
|`SpritePickingBackend`|`SpritePickingPlugin`|
|`UiPickingBackendPlugin`|`UiPickingPlugin`|
- Make `DefaultPickingPlugins` a `PluginGroup`.
- Because `DefaultPickingPlugins` is within the `DefaultPlugins` plugin
group, I also added support for nested plugin groups to the
`plugin_group!` macro.
## Testing
- I used ripgrep to ensure all references were properly renamed.
- For the `plugin_group!` macro, I used `cargo expand` to manually
inspect the expansion of `DefaultPlugins`.
---
## Migration Guide
> [!NOTE]
>
> All 3 of the changed structures were added after 0.14, so this does
not need to be included in the 0.14 to 0.15 migration guide.
- `MeshPickingBackend` is now named `MeshPickingPlugin`.
- `MeshPickingBackendSettings` is now named `MeshPickingSettings`.
- `SpritePickingBackend` is now named `SpritePickingPlugin`.
- `UiPickingBackendPlugin` is now named `UiPickingPlugin`.
- `DefaultPickingPlugins` is now a a `PluginGroup` instead of a
`Plugin`.
# Objective
Make UI rendering optional.
Quite a few people have been experimenting with using Bevy UI for layout
and interaction but replacing the rendering with `bevy_prototype_lyon`
or whatever. It's awkward to do though as there is no way to disable the
existing UI rendering requiring users to create their own custom node
bundles and components. Also, you can't replace the UI's shader and a
number of other things.
This PR makes the setup and initialization of UI rendering for the
RenderApp optional. Then you can do whatever you want by replacing
`build_ui_render` with your own function. For instance, one that loads a
custom shader.
The UI layout and interaction components are still updated as normal.
## Solution
Add a field `enable_rendering` to `UiPlugin`.
Only call `build_ui_render` and initialize the `UiPipeline` if
`enable_rendering` is false.
I thought about implementing a "bevy_ui_render" feature but suspect
everything is too tightly coupled atm and it would be very fragile.
Similar to the struggles with the "bevy_text" feature but worse.
---
## Changelog
`UiPlugin`
* Added a bool field `enable_rendering`.
* Only calls `build_ui_render` and initializes the `UiPipeline` if
`enable_rendering` is true.
## Migration Guide
`UiPlugin` has a new field `enable_rendering`. If set to false, the UI's
rendering systems won't be added to the `RenderApp` and no UI elements
will be drawn. The layout and interaction components will still be
updated as normal.
# Objective
Continue improving the user experience of our UI Node API in the
direction specified by [Bevy's Next Generation Scene / UI
System](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/14437)
## Solution
As specified in the document above, merge `Style` fields into `Node`,
and move "computed Node fields" into `ComputedNode` (I chose this name
over something like `ComputedNodeLayout` because it currently contains
more than just layout info. If we want to break this up / rename these
concepts, lets do that in a separate PR). `Style` has been removed.
This accomplishes a number of goals:
## Ergonomics wins
Specifying both `Node` and `Style` is now no longer required for
non-default styles
Before:
```rust
commands.spawn((
Node::default(),
Style {
width: Val::Px(100.),
..default()
},
));
```
After:
```rust
commands.spawn(Node {
width: Val::Px(100.),
..default()
});
```
## Conceptual clarity
`Style` was never a comprehensive "style sheet". It only defined "core"
style properties that all `Nodes` shared. Any "styled property" that
couldn't fit that mold had to be in a separate component. A "real" style
system would style properties _across_ components (`Node`, `Button`,
etc). We have plans to build a true style system (see the doc linked
above).
By moving the `Style` fields to `Node`, we fully embrace `Node` as the
driving concept and remove the "style system" confusion.
## Next Steps
* Consider identifying and splitting out "style properties that aren't
core to Node". This should not happen for Bevy 0.15.
---
## Migration Guide
Move any fields set on `Style` into `Node` and replace all `Style`
component usage with `Node`.
Before:
```rust
commands.spawn((
Node::default(),
Style {
width: Val::Px(100.),
..default()
},
));
```
After:
```rust
commands.spawn(Node {
width: Val::Px(100.),
..default()
});
```
For any usage of the "computed node properties" that used to live on
`Node`, use `ComputedNode` instead:
Before:
```rust
fn system(nodes: Query<&Node>) {
for node in &nodes {
let computed_size = node.size();
}
}
```
After:
```rust
fn system(computed_nodes: Query<&ComputedNode>) {
for computed_node in &computed_nodes {
let computed_size = computed_node.size();
}
}
```
# Objective
As discussed in #15341, ghost nodes are a contentious and experimental
feature. In the interest of enabling ecosystem experimentation, we've
decided to keep them in Bevy 0.15.
That said, we don't use them internally, and don't expect third-party
crates to support them. If the experimentation returns a negative result
(they aren't very useful, an alternative design is preferred etc) they
will be removed.
We should clearly communicate this status to users, and make sure that
users don't use ghost nodes in their projects without a very clear
understanding of what they're getting themselves into.
## Solution
To make life easy for users (and Bevy), `GhostNode` and all associated
helpers remain public and are always available.
However, actually constructing these requires enabling a feature flag
that's clearly marked as experimental. To do so, I've added a
meaningless private field.
When the feature flag is enabled, our constructs (`new` and `default`)
can be used. I've added a `new` constructor, which should be preferred
over `Default::default` as that can be readily deprecated, allowing us
to prompt users to swap over to the much nicer `GhostNode` syntax once
this is a unit struct again.
Full credit: this was mostly @cart's design: I'm just implementing it!
## Testing
I've run the ghost_nodes example and it fails to compile without the
feature flag. With the feature flag, it works fine :)

# Objective
Cleanup naming and docs, add missing migration guide after #15591
All text root nodes now use `Text` (UI) / `Text2d`.
All text readers/writers use `Text<Type>Reader`/`Text<Type>Writer`
convention.
---
## Migration Guide
Doubles as #15591 migration guide.
Text bundles (`TextBundle` and `Text2dBundle`) were removed in favor of
`Text` and `Text2d`.
Shared configuration fields were replaced with `TextLayout`, `TextFont`
and `TextColor` components.
Just `TextBundle`'s additional field turned into `TextNodeFlags`
component,
while `Text2dBundle`'s additional fields turned into `TextBounds` and
`Anchor` components.
Text sections were removed in favor of hierarchy-based approach.
For root text entities with `Text` or `Text2d` components, child
entities with `TextSpan` will act as additional text sections.
To still access text spans by index, use the new `TextUiReader`,
`Text2dReader` and `TextUiWriter`, `Text2dWriter` system parameters.
**Ready for review. Examples migration progress: 100%.**
# Objective
- Implement https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/15014
## Solution
This implements [cart's
proposal](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/15014#discussioncomment-10574459)
faithfully except for one change. I separated `TextSpan` from
`TextSpan2d` because `TextSpan` needs to require the `GhostNode`
component, which is a `bevy_ui` component only usable by UI.
Extra changes:
- Added `EntityCommands::commands_mut` that returns a mutable reference.
This is a blocker for extension methods that return something other than
`self`. Note that `sickle_ui`'s `UiBuilder::commands` returns a mutable
reference for this reason.
## Testing
- [x] Text examples all work.
---
## Showcase
TODO: showcase-worthy
## Migration Guide
TODO: very breaking
### Accessing text spans by index
Text sections are now text sections on different entities in a
hierarchy, Use the new `TextReader` and `TextWriter` system parameters
to access spans by index.
Before:
```rust
fn refresh_text(mut query: Query<&mut Text, With<TimeText>>, time: Res<Time>) {
let text = query.single_mut();
text.sections[1].value = format_time(time.elapsed());
}
```
After:
```rust
fn refresh_text(
query: Query<Entity, With<TimeText>>,
mut writer: UiTextWriter,
time: Res<Time>
) {
let entity = query.single();
*writer.text(entity, 1) = format_time(time.elapsed());
}
```
### Iterating text spans
Text spans are now entities in a hierarchy, so the new `UiTextReader`
and `UiTextWriter` system parameters provide ways to iterate that
hierarchy. The `UiTextReader::iter` method will give you a normal
iterator over spans, and `UiTextWriter::for_each` lets you visit each of
the spans.

# Objective
- Closes#15720
## Solution
Wrap the handle in a new wrapper component: `UiMaterialHandle`
It's not possible to match the naming convention of `MeshMaterial3d/2d`
here with the trait already being called `UiMaterial`
Should we consider renaming to `Material3d/2dHandle` and `Mesh3d/2d` to
`Mesh3d/2dHandle`?
- This shouldn't have any merge conflicts with #15591
## Testing
Tested the `ui_material` example
## Migration Guide
Let's defer the migration guide to the required component port. I just
want to yeet the `Component` impl on `Handle` in the meantime :)
# Objective
UI box shadow support
Adds a new component `BoxShadow`:
```rust
pub struct BoxShadow {
/// The shadow's color
pub color: Color,
/// Horizontal offset
pub x_offset: Val,
/// Vertical offset
pub y_offset: Val,
/// Horizontal difference in size from the occluding uninode
pub spread_radius: Val,
/// Blurriness of the shadow
pub blur_radius: Val,
}
```
To use `BoxShadow`, add the component to any Bevy UI node and a shadow
will be drawn beneath that node.
Also adds a resource `BoxShadowSamples` that can be used to adjust the
shadow quality.
#### Notes
* I'm not super happy with the field names. Maybe we need a `struct Size
{ width: Val, height: Val }` type or something.
* The shader isn't very optimised but I don't see that it's too
important for now as the number of shadows being rendered is not going
to be massive most of the time. I think it's more important to get the
API and geometry correct with this PR.
* I didn't implement an inset property, it's not essential and can
easily be added in a follow up.
* Shadows are only rendered for uinodes, not for images or text.
* Batching isn't supported, it would need out-of-the-scope-of-this-pr
changes to the way the UI handles z-ordering for it to be effective.

# Objective
- Fixes#14826
- For context, see #15238

## Performance
[See comment
below](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/15341#issuecomment-2385456820)
## Migration guide
Any code that previously relied on `Parent`/`Children` to iterate UI
children may now want to use `bevy_ui::UiChildren` to ensure ghost nodes
are skipped, and their first descendant Nodes included.
UI root nodes may now be children of ghost nodes, which means
`Without<Parent>` might not query all root nodes. Use
`bevy_ui::UiRootNodes` where needed to iterate root nodes instead.
## Potential future work
- Benchmarking/optimizations of hierarchies containing lots of ghost
nodes
- Further exploration of UI hierarchies and markers for root nodes/leaf
nodes to create better ergonomics for things like `UiLayer` (world-space
ui)

# Objective
- Fixes#6370
- Closes#6581
## Solution
- Added the following lints to the workspace:
- `std_instead_of_core`
- `std_instead_of_alloc`
- `alloc_instead_of_core`
- Used `cargo +nightly fmt` with [item level use
formatting](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=v1.6.0&search=#Item%5C%3A)
to split all `use` statements into single items.
- Used `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features --fix
--allow-dirty` to _attempt_ to resolve the new linting issues, and
intervened where the lint was unable to resolve the issue automatically
(usually due to needing an `extern crate alloc;` statement in a crate
root).
- Manually removed certain uses of `std` where negative feature gating
prevented `--all-features` from finding the offending uses.
- Used `cargo +nightly fmt` with [crate level use
formatting](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=v1.6.0&search=#Crate%5C%3A)
to re-merge all `use` statements matching Bevy's previous styling.
- Manually fixed cases where the `fmt` tool could not re-merge `use`
statements due to conditional compilation attributes.
## Testing
- Ran CI locally
## Migration Guide
The MSRV is now 1.81. Please update to this version or higher.
## Notes
- This is a _massive_ change to try and push through, which is why I've
outlined the semi-automatic steps I used to create this PR, in case this
fails and someone else tries again in the future.
- Making this change has no impact on user code, but does mean Bevy
contributors will be warned to use `core` and `alloc` instead of `std`
where possible.
- This lint is a critical first step towards investigating `no_std`
options for Bevy.

# Objective
- Crate-level prelude modules, such as `bevy_ecs::prelude`, are plagued
with inconsistency! Let's fix it!
## Solution
Format all preludes based on the following rules:
1. All preludes should have brief documentation in the format of:
> The _name_ prelude.
>
> This includes the most common types in this crate, re-exported for
your convenience.
2. All documentation should be outer, not inner. (`///` instead of
`//!`.)
3. No prelude modules should be annotated with `#[doc(hidden)]`. (Items
within them may, though I'm not sure why this was done.)
## Testing
- I manually searched for the term `mod prelude` and updated all
occurrences by hand. 🫠

# Objective
As discussed in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/7386, system
order ambiguities within `DefaultPlugins` are a source of bugs in the
engine and badly pollute diagnostic output for users.
We should eliminate them!
This PR is an alternative to #15027: with all external ambiguities
silenced, this should be much less prone to merge conflicts and the test
output should be much easier for authors to understand.
Note that system order ambiguities are still permitted in the
`RenderApp`: these need a bit of thought in terms of how to test them,
and will be fairly involved to fix. While these aren't *good*, they'll
generally only cause graphical bugs, not logic ones.
## Solution
All remaining system order ambiguities have been resolved.
Review this PR commit-by-commit to see how each of these problems were
fixed.
## Testing
`cargo run --example ambiguity_detection` passes with no panics or
logging!
# Objective
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14183
## Solution
Reimplement the UI texture atlas slicer using a shader.
The problems with #14183 could be fixed more simply by hacking around
with the coordinates and scaling but that way is very fragile and might
get broken again the next time we make changes to the layout
calculations. A shader based solution is more robust, it's impossible
for gaps to appear between the image slices with these changes as we're
only drawing a single quad.
I've not tried any benchmarks yet but it should much more efficient as
well, in the worst cases even hundreds or thousands of times faster.
Maybe could have used the UiMaterialPipeline. I wrote the shader first
and used fat vertices and then realised it wouldn't work that way with a
UiMaterial. If it's rewritten it so it puts all the slice geometry in
uniform buffer, then it might work? Adding the uniform buffer would
probably make the shader more complicated though, so don't know if it's
even worth it. Instancing is another alternative.
## Testing
The examples are working and it seems to match the old API correctly but
I've not used the texture atlas slicing API for anything before, I
reviewed the PR but that was back in January.
Needs a review by someone who knows the rendering pipeline and wgsl
really well because I don't really have any idea what I'm doing.
# Objective
`resolve_outlines_system` wasn't updated when multi-window support was
added and it always uses the size of the primary window when resolving
viewport coords, regardless of the layout's camera target.
Fixes#14945
## Solution
It's awkward to get the viewport size of the target for an individual
node without walking the tree or adding extra fields to `Node`, so I
removed `resolve_outlines_system` and instead the outline values are
updated in `ui_layout_system`.

# Objective
This `apply_deferred` doesn't seem to have any effect, pointlessly
restricts parallelism and is responsible for a large number of system
order ambiguities. Spotted as part of #7386.
## Solution
Remove it.
This is the *only* manual apply_deferred in the code base currently.
## Testing
I've checked various UI examples and `split_screen`, and couldn't
discern any difference.
This looks like a remnant of a `(a, apply_deferred, b).chain()` pattern
where `b` got removed, leaving us with a weird vestige.
Makes the newly merged picking usable for UI elements.
currently it both triggers the events, as well as sends them as throught
commands.trigger_targets. We should probably figure out if this is
needed for them all.
# Objective
Hooks up obserers and picking for a very simple example
## Solution
upstreamed the UI picking backend from bevy_mod_picking
## Testing
tested with the new example picking/simple_picking.rs

# Objective
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14277.
May also fix https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14255, needs
verification.
## Solution
Explicitly order `CameraUpdateSystem` before `UiSystem::Prepare`, so
that when the window resizes, `camera_system` will update the `Camera`'s
viewport size before `ui_layout_system` also reacts to the window resize
and tries to read the new `Camera` viewport size to set UI node sizes
accordingly.
## Testing
I tested that explicitly ordering `CameraUpdateSystem` _after_ triggers
the buggy behavior, and explicitly ordering it _before_ does not trigger
the buggy behavior or crash the app (which also demonstrates that the
system sets are ambiguous).
---
## Migration Guide
`CameraUpdateSystem` is now explicitly ordered before
`UiSystem::Prepare` instead of being ambiguous with it.
# Objective
- All UI systems should be in system sets that are easy to order around
in user code.
## Solution
- Add `UiSystem::Prepare` and `UiSystem::PostLayout` system sets to
capture floater systems.
- Adjust how UI systems are scheduled to align with the new sets.
This is *mostly* a pure refactor without any behavior/scheduling
changes. See migration guide.
## Testing
- Not tested, correctness by inspection.
---
## Migration Guide
`UiSystem` system set adjustments.
- The `UiSystem::Outline` system set is now strictly ordered after
`UiSystem::Layout`, rather than overlapping it.
# Objective
Make visibility system ordering explicit. Fixes#12953.
## Solution
Specify `CheckVisibility` happens after all other `VisibilitySystems`
sets have happened.

This commit splits `VisibleEntities::entities` into four separate lists:
one for lights, one for 2D meshes, one for 3D meshes, and one for UI
elements. This allows `queue_material_meshes` and similar methods to
avoid examining entities that are obviously irrelevant. In particular,
this separation helps scenes with many skinned meshes, as the individual
bones are considered visible entities but have no rendered appearance.
Internally, `VisibleEntities::entities` is a `HashMap` from the `TypeId`
representing a `QueryFilter` to the appropriate `Entity` list. I had to
do this because `VisibleEntities` is located within an upstream crate
from the crates that provide lights (`bevy_pbr`) and 2D meshes
(`bevy_sprite`). As an added benefit, this setup allows apps to provide
their own types of renderable components, by simply adding a specialized
`check_visibility` to the schedule.
This provides a 16.23% end-to-end speedup on `many_foxes` with 10,000
foxes (24.06 ms/frame to 20.70 ms/frame).
## Migration guide
* `check_visibility` and `VisibleEntities` now store the four types of
renderable entities--2D meshes, 3D meshes, lights, and UI
elements--separately. If your custom rendering code examines
`VisibleEntities`, it will now need to specify which type of entity it's
interested in using the `WithMesh2d`, `WithMesh`, `WithLight`, and
`WithNode` types respectively. If your app introduces a new type of
renderable entity, you'll need to add an explicit call to
`check_visibility` to the schedule to accommodate your new component or
components.
## Analysis
`many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes: `main`:

`many_foxes`, 10,000 foxes, this branch:

`queue_material_meshes` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`):

`queue_shadows` (yellow = this branch, red = `main`):

This is 1 of 5 iterative PR's that affect bevy_ui/layout
---
# Objective
- Extract `UiSurface` into its own file to make diffs in future PR's
easier to digest
## Solution
- Moved `UiSurface` to its own file
# Objective
This is a necessary precursor to #9122 (this was split from that PR to
reduce the amount of code to review all at once).
Moving `!Send` resource ownership to `App` will make it unambiguously
`!Send`. `SubApp` must be `Send`, so it can't wrap `App`.
## Solution
Refactor `App` and `SubApp` to not have a recursive relationship. Since
`SubApp` no longer wraps `App`, once `!Send` resources are moved out of
`World` and into `App`, `SubApp` will become unambiguously `Send`.
There could be less code duplication between `App` and `SubApp`, but
that would break `App` method chaining.
## Changelog
- `SubApp` no longer wraps `App`.
- `App` fields are no longer publicly accessible.
- `App` can no longer be converted into a `SubApp`.
- Various methods now return references to a `SubApp` instead of an
`App`.
## Migration Guide
- To construct a sub-app, use `SubApp::new()`. `App` can no longer
convert into `SubApp`.
- If you implemented a trait for `App`, you may want to implement it for
`SubApp` as well.
- If you're accessing `app.world` directly, you now have to use
`app.world()` and `app.world_mut()`.
- `App::sub_app` now returns `&SubApp`.
- `App::sub_app_mut` now returns `&mut SubApp`.
- `App::get_sub_app` now returns `Option<&SubApp>.`
- `App::get_sub_app_mut` now returns `Option<&mut SubApp>.`
# Objective
Currently the built docs only shows the logo and favicon for the top
level `bevy` crate. This makes views like
https://docs.rs/bevy_ecs/latest/bevy_ecs/ look potentially unrelated to
the project at first glance.
## Solution
Reproduce the docs attributes for every crate that Bevy publishes.
Ideally this would be done with some workspace level Cargo.toml control,
but AFAICT, such support does not exist.
# Objective
Implements border radius for UI nodes. Adopted from #8973, but excludes
shadows.
## Solution
- Add a component `BorderRadius` which contains a radius value for each
corner of the UI node.
- Use a fragment shader to generate the rounded corners using a signed
distance function.

## Changelog
- `BorderRadius`: New component that holds the border radius values.
- `NodeBundle` & `ButtonBundle`: Added a `border_radius: BorderRadius`
field.
- `extract_uinode_borders`: Stripped down, most of the work is done in
the shader now. Borders are no longer assembled from multiple rects,
instead the shader uses a signed distance function to draw the border.
- `UiVertex`: Added size, border and radius fields.
- `UiPipeline`: Added three vertex attributes to the vertex buffer
layout, to accept the UI node's size, border thickness and border
radius.
- Examples: Added rounded corners to the UI element in the `button`
example, and a `rounded_borders` example.

# Objective
Whenever a nodes size gets changed, its texture slices get updated a
frame later. This results in visual glitches when animating the size of
a node with a texture slice. See this video:
[Screencast from 17-03-24
14:53:13.webm](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/46689298/64e711f7-a1ec-41e3-b119-dc8d7e1a7669)
## Solution
Compute texture slices after the layout system has finished.
# Objective
Fix missing `TextBundle` (and many others) which are present in the main
crate as default features but optional in the sub-crate. See:
- https://docs.rs/bevy/0.13.0/bevy/ui/node_bundles/index.html
- https://docs.rs/bevy_ui/0.13.0/bevy_ui/node_bundles/index.html
~~There are probably other instances in other crates that I could track
down, but maybe "all-features = true" should be used by default in all
sub-crates? Not sure.~~ (There were many.) I only noticed this because
rust-analyzer's "open docs" features takes me to the sub-crate, not the
main one.
## Solution
Add "all-features = true" to docs.rs metadata for crates that use
features.
## Changelog
### Changed
- Unified features documented on docs.rs between main crate and
sub-crates
# Objective
Fix#12304. Remove unnecessary type registrations thanks to #4154.
## Solution
Conservatively remove type registrations. Keeping the top level
components, resources, and events, but dropping everything else that is
a type of a member of those types.
> Follow up to #10588
> Closes#11749 (Supersedes #11756)
Enable Texture slicing for the following UI nodes:
- `ImageBundle`
- `ButtonBundle`
<img width="739" alt="Screenshot 2024-01-29 at 13 57 43"
src="https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/assets/26703856/37675681-74eb-4689-ab42-024310cf3134">
I also added a collection of `fantazy-ui-borders` from
[Kenney's](www.kenney.nl) assets, with the appropriate license (CC).
If it's a problem I can use the same textures as the `sprite_slice`
example
# Work done
Added the `ImageScaleMode` component to the targetted bundles, most of
the logic is directly reused from `bevy_sprite`.
The only additional internal component is the UI specific
`ComputedSlices`, which does the same thing as its spritee equivalent
but adapted to UI code.
Again the slicing is not compatible with `TextureAtlas`, it's something
I need to tackle more deeply in the future
# Fixes
* [x] I noticed that `TextureSlicer::compute_slices` could infinitely
loop if the border was larger that the image half extents, now an error
is triggered and the texture will fallback to being stretched
* [x] I noticed that when using small textures with very small *tiling*
options we could generate hundred of thousands of slices. Now I set a
minimum size of 1 pixel per slice, which is already ridiculously small,
and a warning will be sent at runtime when slice count goes above 1000
* [x] Sprite slicing with `flip_x` or `flip_y` would give incorrect
results, correct flipping is now supported to both sprites and ui image
nodes thanks to @odecay observation
# GPU Alternative
I create a separate branch attempting to implementing 9 slicing and
tiling directly through the `ui.wgsl` fragment shader. It works but
requires sending more data to the GPU:
- slice border
- tiling factors
And more importantly, the actual quad *scale* which is hard to put in
the shader with the current code, so that would be for a later iteration
# Objective
During my exploratory work on the remote editor, I found a couple of
types that were either not registered, or that were missing
`ReflectDefault`.
## Solution
- Added registration and `ReflectDefault` where applicable
- (Drive by fix) Moved `Option<f32>` registration to `bevy_core` instead
of `bevy_ui`, along with similar types.
---
## Changelog
- Fixed: Registered `FogSettings`, `FogFalloff`,
`ParallaxMappingMethod`, `OpaqueRendererMethod` structs for reflection
- Fixed: Registered `ReflectDefault` trait for `ColorGrading` and
`CascadeShadowConfig` structs
# Objective
Currently the `missing_docs` lint is allowed-by-default and enabled at
crate level when their documentations is complete (see #3492).
This PR proposes to inverse this logic by making `missing_docs`
warn-by-default and mark crates with imcomplete docs allowed.
## Solution
Makes `missing_docs` warn at workspace level and allowed at crate level
when the docs is imcomplete.
# Objective
- `bevy_ui` fails to compile without `bevy_text` being enabled.
- Fixes#11363.
## Solution
- Add `#[cfg(feature = "bevy_text")]` to all items that require it.
I think this change is honestly a bit ugly, but I can't see any other
way around it. I considered making `bevy_text` required, but we agreed
[on
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/743663673393938453/1196868117486379148)
that there were some use cases for `bevy_ui` without `bevy_text`. If you
have any ideas that decreases the amount of `#[cfg(...)]`s and
`#[allow(...)]`s, that would be greatly appreciated.
This was tested by running the following commands:
```shell
$ cargo clippy -p bevy_ui
$ cargo clippy -p bevy_ui -F bevy_text
$ cargo run -p ci
```

## Changelog
- Fixed `bevy_ui` not compiling without `bevy_text`.
# Objective
> Old MR: #5072
> ~~Associated UI MR: #5070~~
> Adresses #1618
Unify sprite management
## Solution
- Remove the `Handle<Image>` field in `TextureAtlas` which is the main
cause for all the boilerplate
- Remove the redundant `TextureAtlasSprite` component
- Renamed `TextureAtlas` asset to `TextureAtlasLayout`
([suggestion](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5103#discussion_r917281844))
- Add a `TextureAtlas` component, containing the atlas layout handle and
the section index
The difference between this solution and #5072 is that instead of the
`enum` approach is that we can more easily manipulate texture sheets
without any breaking changes for classic `SpriteBundle`s (@mockersf
[comment](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5072#issuecomment-1165836139))
Also, this approach is more *data oriented* extracting the
`Handle<Image>` and avoiding complex texture atlas manipulations to
retrieve the texture in both applicative and engine code.
With this method, the only difference between a `SpriteBundle` and a
`SpriteSheetBundle` is an **additional** component storing the atlas
handle and the index.
~~This solution can be applied to `bevy_ui` as well (see #5070).~~
EDIT: I also applied this solution to Bevy UI
## Changelog
- (**BREAKING**) Removed `TextureAtlasSprite`
- (**BREAKING**) Renamed `TextureAtlas` to `TextureAtlasLayout`
- (**BREAKING**) `SpriteSheetBundle`:
- Uses a `Sprite` instead of a `TextureAtlasSprite` component
- Has a `texture` field containing a `Handle<Image>` like the
`SpriteBundle`
- Has a new `TextureAtlas` component instead of a
`Handle<TextureAtlasLayout>`
- (**BREAKING**) `DynamicTextureAtlasBuilder::add_texture` takes an
additional `&Handle<Image>` parameter
- (**BREAKING**) `TextureAtlasLayout::from_grid` no longer takes a
`Handle<Image>` parameter
- (**BREAKING**) `TextureAtlasBuilder::finish` now returns a
`Result<(TextureAtlasLayout, Handle<Image>), _>`
- `bevy_text`:
- `GlyphAtlasInfo` stores the texture `Handle<Image>`
- `FontAtlas` stores the texture `Handle<Image>`
- `bevy_ui`:
- (**BREAKING**) Removed `UiAtlasImage` , the atlas bundle is now
identical to the `ImageBundle` with an additional `TextureAtlas`

# Objective
Add support for presenting each UI tree on a specific window and
viewport, while making as few breaking changes as possible.
This PR is meant to resolve the following issues at once, since they're
all related.
- Fixes#5622
- Fixes#5570
- Fixes#5621
Adopted #5892 , but started over since the current codebase diverged
significantly from the original PR branch. Also, I made a decision to
propagate component to children instead of recursively iterating over
nodes in search for the root.
## Solution
Add a new optional component that can be inserted to UI root nodes and
propagate to children to specify which camera it should render onto.
This is then used to get the render target and the viewport for that UI
tree. Since this component is optional, the default behavior should be
to render onto the single camera (if only one exist) and warn of
ambiguity if multiple cameras exist. This reduces the complexity for
users with just one camera, while giving control in contexts where it
matters.
## Changelog
- Adds `TargetCamera(Entity)` component to specify which camera should a
node tree be rendered into. If only one camera exists, this component is
optional.
- Adds an example of rendering UI to a texture and using it as a
material in a 3D world.
- Fixes recalculation of physical viewport size when target scale factor
changes. This can happen when the window is moved between displays with
different DPI.
- Changes examples to demonstrate assigning UI to different viewports
and windows and make interactions in an offset viewport testable.
- Removes `UiCameraConfig`. UI visibility now can be controlled via
combination of explicit `TargetCamera` and `Visibility` on the root
nodes.
