Library: introduce a new form of the MeshRectangular grid, where the individual rows and columns can be each of different width. This help reduce the number of vertices in objects as typically we are only interested at distorting a certain subregion.
Modify the Bean app to take advantage of this.
Correct VertexEffectQueue in the Mesh. There's no need to have a separate Queue in every component.
Progress making it possible to apply Vertex Effects only to some Components of a Mesh.
In library: allow a mixture of a deep and shallow copy of a Mesh ( mVertAttribs1 might be copied deeply or shallowly, mVertAttribs2 are always copied deeeply).Port RubikCube to the new library.
Change 'tag' to a more appropriate name - 'association'.
Introduce 'tags' (soon to be renamed to 'associations') to Mesh and VertexEffect.A 'tag' is a way to associate a Vertex Effect only to a subgroup of a given Mesh's vertices (more precisely, only to an arbitrary subset of its Components)
Have VERTEX_QUATERNION, VERTEX_ROTATE and VERTEX_SHEAR modify inflate vectors.Split Vertex attribute array into two (the one modified by preapply effects and the one not)
Progress with the Predeform app; deepCopy for the Meshes; various fixes.
A lot of changes.
1) main vertex shader: remove support for degree_object. This functionality will hopefully come back when we introduce other than circular regions.2) MeshBase: remove the need to set a Bounding box (this is the point of the whole thing - we wanted to get rid of this so that the advances in MeshJoined will be easier)...
Move the Effects.setStretch to Meshbase.setStretch
Move the 'pre-multiply mesh before applying any effects' thing from [(Xsize of texture, Ysize of texture) x Mesh's zFactor] to Effects.setStretch(sx,sy,sz)
Rename MeshFlat MeshRectangles.
