The bug was in `Color32::from_rgba_unmultiplied` and by extension
affects:
* `Color32::from_rgba_unmultiplied`
* `hex_color!`
* `HexColor`
* `ColorImage::from_rgba_unmultiplied`
* All images with transparency (png, webp, …)
* `Color32::from_white_alpha`
The bug caused translucent colors to appear too bright.

Color is hard.
When I started out egui I thought "linear space is objectively better,
for everything!" and then I've been slowly walking that back for various
reasons:
* sRGB textures not available everywhere
* gamma-space is more _perceptually_ even, so it makes sense to use for
anti-aliasing
* other applications do everything in gamma space, so that's what people
expect (this PR)
Similarly, pre-multiplied alpha _makes sense_ for blending colors. It
also enables additive colors, which is nice. But it does complicate
things. Especially when mixed with sRGB/gamma (As @karhu [points
out](https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/5824#issuecomment-2738099254)).

Breaking change!
* `Rounding` -> `CornerRadius`
* `rounding` -> `corner_radius`
This is to:
* Clarify
* Conform to other systems (e.g. Figma)
* Avoid confusion with `GuiRounding`
## Defining what `Rounding` is
This PR defines what `Rounding` means: it is the corner radius of
underlying `RectShape` rectangle. If you use `StrokeKind::Inside`, this
means the rounding is of the outer part of the stroke. Conversely, if
you use `StrokeKind::Outside`, the stroke is outside the rounded
rectangle, so the stroke has an inner radius or `rounding`, and an outer
radius that is larger by `stroke.width`.
This definitions is the same as Figma uses.
## Improving general shape rendering
The rendering of filled shapes (rectangles, circles, paths, bezier) has
been rewritten. Instead of first painting the fill with the stroke on
top, we now paint them as one single mesh with shared vertices at the
border. This has several benefits:
* Less work (faster and with fewer vertices produced)
* No overdraw (nicer rendering of translucent shapes)
* Correct blending of stroke and fill
The logic for rendering thin strokes has also been improved, so that the
width of a stroke of `StrokeKind::Outside` never affects the filled area
(this used to be wrong for thin strokes).
## Improving of rectangle rendering
Rectangles also has specific improvements in how thin rectangles are
painted.
The handling of "Blur width" is also a lot better, and now works for
rectangles with strokes.
There also used to be bugs with specific combinations of corner radius
and stroke width, that are now fixed.
## But why?
With the new `egui::Scene` we end up with a lot of zoomed out shapes,
with sub-pixel strokes. These need to look good! One thing led to
another, and then I became obsessive 😅
## Tessellation Test
In order to investigate the rendering, I created a Tessellation Test in
the `egui_demo_lib`.
[Try it
here](https://egui-pr-preview.github.io/pr/5669-emilkimprove-tessellator)
This is a breaking change, requiring users to think about wether the
stroke is inside/centered/outside the rect.
When in doubt, add `egui::StrokeKind::Inside` to the function call.
Previously, `Harness::run` just called `Harness::step` 3 times. If that
wasn't enough, tests would often call run multiple times so all
animations would finish properly.
Also, I introduced `HarnessBuilder::with_step_dt` to customize with how
big of a dt each frame is called. I set the default to 1.0 / 6.0 (~6fps)
so we don't waste cpu in tests waiting on animations.
`HarnessBuilder::max_steps` allows us to control how many steps
`Harness::run` should run before panicing.
The default is 6, so we run for up to 1.0 logical seconds (six frames at
6 fps), which should be enough to finish most animations.
Turns out a lot of snapshots where rendered before fully shown and had a
light opacity, those are now fixed.

`Frame` now includes the width of the stroke as part of its size. From
the new docs:
### `Frame` docs
The total (outer) size of a frame is `content_size + inner_margin +
2*stroke.width + outer_margin`.
Everything within the stroke is filled with the fill color (if any).
```text
+-----------------^-------------------------------------- -+
| | outer_margin |
| +------------v----^------------------------------+ |
| | | stroke width | |
| | +------------v---^---------------------+ | |
| | | | inner_margin | | |
| | | +-----------v----------------+ | | |
| | | | ^ | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | |<------ content_size ------>| | | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | v | | | |
| | | +------- content_rect -------+ | | |
| | | | | |
| | +-------------fill_rect ---------------+ | |
| | | |
| +----------------- widget_rect ------------------+ |
| |
+---------------------- outer_rect ------------------------+
```
The four rectangles, from inside to outside, are:
* `content_rect`: the rectangle that is made available to the inner
[`Ui`] or widget.
* `fill_rect`: the rectangle that is filled with the fill color (inside
the stroke, if any).
* `widget_rect`: is the interactive part of the widget (what sense
clicks etc).
* `outer_rect`: what is allocated in the outer [`Ui`], and is what is
returned by [`Response::rect`].
### Notes
This required rewriting a lot of the layout code for `egui::Window`,
which was a massive pain. But now the window margin and stroke width is
properly accounted for everywhere.
* Merge this first: https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/5517
This aligns all rectangles and (horizontal or vertical) line segments to
the physical pixel grid in the `epaint::Tessellator`, making these
shapes appear crisp everywhere.
* Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/5164
* Closes https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/3667
This undoes a lot of the explicit, egui-side aligning added in:
* https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/4943
The new approach has several benefits over the old one:
* It is done automatically by epaint, so it is applied to everything (no
longer opt-in)
* It is applied after any layer transforms (so it always works)
* It makes line segments crisper on high-DPI screens
* All filled rectangles now has sides that end on pixel boundaries

This adds a testing library to egui based on
[kittest](https://github.com/rerun-io/kittest). Kittest is a new
[AccessKit](https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit/)-based testing
library. The api is inspired by the js
[testing-library](https://testing-library.com/) where the idea is also
to query the dom based on accessibility attributes.
We made kittest with egui in mind but it should work with any rust gui
framework with AccessKit support.
It currently has support for:
- running the egui app, frame by frame
- building the AccessKit tree
- ergonomic queries via kittest
- via e.g. get_by_name, get_by_role
- simulating events based on the accesskit node id
- creating arbitrary events based on Harness::input_mut
- rendering screenshots via wgpu
- snapshot tests with these screenshots
A simple test looks like this:
```rust
fn main() {
let mut checked = false;
let app = |ctx: &Context| {
CentralPanel::default().show(ctx, |ui| {
ui.checkbox(&mut checked, "Check me!");
});
};
let mut harness = Harness::builder().with_size(egui::Vec2::new(200.0, 100.0)).build(app);
let checkbox = harness.get_by_name("Check me!");
assert_eq!(checkbox.toggled(), Some(Toggled::False));
checkbox.click();
harness.run();
let checkbox = harness.get_by_name("Check me!");
assert_eq!(checkbox.toggled(), Some(Toggled::True));
// You can even render the ui and do image snapshot tests
#[cfg(all(feature = "wgpu", feature = "snapshot"))]
egui_kittest::image_snapshot(&egui_kittest::wgpu::TestRenderer::new().render(&harness), "readme_example");
}
```
~Since getting wgpu to run in ci is a hassle, I'm taking another shot at
creating a software renderer for egui (ideally without a huge dependency
like skia)~ (this didn't work as well as I hoped and it turns out in CI
you can just run tests on a mac runner which comes with a real GPU)
Here is a example of a failed snapshot test in ci, it will say which
snapshot failed and upload an artifact with the before / after and diff
images:
