## What
This deprecates `eframe::App::update` and replaces it with two new
functions:
```rs
pub trait App {
/// Called just before `ui`, and in the future this will
/// also be called for background apps when needed.
fn logic(&mut self, ctx: &egui::Context, frame: &mut Frame) { }
/// Show your user interface to the user.
fn ui(&mut self, ui: &mut egui::Ui, frame: &mut Frame);
…
}
```
Similarly, `Context::run` is deprecated in favor of `Context::run_ui`.
`Plugin`s are now handed a `Ui` instead of just a `Context` in
`on_begin/end_frame`.
## TODO
…either in this PR or a later one
* [x] Deprecate `App::update`
* [x] Deprecate `Context::run`
* [x] Change plugins to get a `Ui`
* [x] Update kittest
* [x] Change viewports to get UI:s (`show_viewport_immediate` etc)
- https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/7779
## Later PRs
* [ ] Deprecate `Panel::show`
* [ ] Deprecate `CentralPanel::show`
* [ ] Deprecate `CentralPanel` ?
### What
From the [lint
description](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html?search=or_fu#or_fun_call):
> The function will always be called. This is only bad if it allocates
or does some non-trivial amount of work.
But also:
> If the function has side-effects, not calling it will change the
semantic of the program, but you shouldn’t rely on that.
>
> The lint also cannot figure out whether the function you call is
actually expensive to call or not.
Still worth it to keep our happy paths clean, imo.
We're phasing out top-level panels (panels that use `Context` directly,
instead of being inside another `Ui`).
As a first step, stop using them in our demo library and application.
* Part of https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/3524
This combines `SidePanel` and `TopBottomPanel` into a single `Panel`.
The old types are still there as type aliases, but are deprecated.
`.min_width(…)` etc are now called `.min_size(…)` etc.
Again, the old names are still there, but deprecated.

This changes egui to create an AccessKit node for each `Ui`. I'm not
sure if this alone will directly improve accessibility, but it should
make it easier to create the correct parent / child relations (e.g.
grouping menus as children of menu buttons).
Instead of having a global stack of parent ids, they are now passed via
a parent_id field in `UiBuilder`.
If having all these `GenericContainer` nodes somehow is bad for
accessibility, the PR could also be changed to only create nodes if
there is actually some accessibility info with it (the relevant is
currently commented-out in the PR). But I think screen readers should
just ignore these nodes, so it should be fine? We could also use this as
motivation to git red of some unnecessary wrapped `Ui`s, e.g.
CentralPanel creates 3 Uis when 2 should be enough (the initial Ui and a
Frame, maybe we could even only show the `Frame` if we can give it an
UiBuilder and somehow show the Frame with `Ui::new`).
Here is a screenshot from the accessibility inspector
(https://github.com/emilk/egui/pull/7368) with this PR:

Adds an accessibility inspector plugin that shows the current AccessKit
tree:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/78f4f221-1bd2-4ce4-adf5-fc3b00f5c16c
Macos has a built in accessibility inspector, but it doesn't seem to
work with AccessKit / eframe so this provides some insight into the
accesskit state.
This also showed a couple issues that are easy to fix:
- [ ] Links show up as `Label` instead of links
- [ ] Not all supported actions are advertised (e.g. scrolling)
- [ ] The resize handles in windows shouldn't be focusable
- [ ] Checkbox has no value
- [ ] Menus should have the button as parent widget (not 100% sure on
this one)
Currently the plugin lives in the demo app, but I think it should be
moved somewhere else. Maybe egui_extras?
This could also be relevant for #4650
This PR is a continuation of #4915 by @frederik-uni and @lucasmerlin
that introduces support for keeping egui content within the 'safe area'
on iOS (avoiding the notch / dynamic island / menu bar etc.), with the
following changes:
- `SafeArea` now wraps `MarginF32` and has been renamed to
`SafeAreaInsets` to clarify its purpose.
- `InputState::screen_rect` is now marked as deprecated in favour of
either `viewport_rect` (which contains the entire screen), or
`content_rect` (which is the viewport rect with the safe area insets
removed).
- I added some comments to the safe area insets logic pointing out the
[safe area API coming in winit
v0.31](https://github.com/rust-windowing/winit/issues/3910).

Breaking change!
* `Rounding` -> `CornerRadius`
* `rounding` -> `corner_radius`
This is to:
* Clarify
* Conform to other systems (e.g. Figma)
* Avoid confusion with `GuiRounding`
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.
* Part of https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4019
`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.
This adds `WidgetType::Image` and correctly sets it in the Image widget.
This allows us to query for images in kittest tests and tells accesskit
that a node is an image.
It also adds `Image::alt_text` to set a text that will be shown if the
image fails to load and will be read via screen readers. This also
allows us to query images by label in kittest.

Hey! I am not sure if this is something that's been considered before
and decided against (I couldn't find any PR's or issues).
This change removes the internal profiling macros in library crates and
the `puffin` feature and replaces it with similar functions in the
[profiling](https://github.com/aclysma/profiling) crate. This crate
provides a layer of abstraction over various profiler instrumentation
crates and allows library users to pick their favorite (supported)
profiler.
An additional benefit for puffin users is that dependencies of egui are
included in the instrumentation output too (mainly wgpu which uses the
profiling crate), so more details might be available when profiling.
A breaking change is that instead of using the `puffin` feature on egui,
users that want to profile the crate with puffin instead have to enable
the `profile-with-puffin` feature on the profiling crate. Similarly they
could instead choose to use `profile-with-tracy` etc.
I tried to add a 'tracy' feature to egui_demo_app in order to showcase ,
however the /scripts/check.sh currently breaks on mutually exclusive
features (which this introduces), so I decided against including it for
the initial PR. I'm happy to iterate more on this if there is interest
in taking this PR though.
Screenshot showing the additional info for wgpu now available when using
puffin

A very common usability issue on egui-wgpu callbacks is that `paint`
can't access any data that doesn't strictly outlive the callback
resources' data. E.g. if the callback resources have an `Arc` to some
resource manager, you can't easily pull out resources since you
statically needed to ensure that those resource references outlived the
renderpass, whose lifetime was only constrained to the callback
resources themselves.
Wgpu 22 no longer has this restriction! Its (render/compute-)passes take
care of the lifetime of any passed resource internally. The lifetime
constraint is _still_ opt-out since it protects from a common runtime
error of adding commands/passes on the parent encoder while a previously
created pass wasn't closed yet.
This is not a concern in egui-wgpu since the paint method where we have
to access the render pass doesn't even have access to the encoder!

### Background
Some widgets (like `Grid` and `Table`) needs to know the width of future
elements in order to properly size themselves. For instance, the width
of the first column of a grid may not be known until all rows of the
grid has been added, at which point it is too late. Therefore these
widgets store sizes from the previous frame. This leads to "first-frame
jitter", were the content is placed in the wrong place for one frame,
before being accurately laid out in subsequent frames.
### What
This PR adds the function `ctx.request_discard` which discards the
visual output and does another _pass_, i.e. calls the whole app UI code
once again (in eframe this means calling `App::update` again). This will
thus discard the shapes produced by the wrongly placed widgets, and
replace it with new shapes. Note that only the visual output is
discarded - all other output events are accumulated.
Calling `ctx.request_discard` should only be done in very rare
circumstances, e.g. when a `Grid` is first shown. Calling it every frame
will mean the UI code will become unnecessarily slow.
Two safe-guards are in place:
* `Options::max_passes` is by default 2, meaning egui will never do more
than 2 passes even if `request_discard` is called on every pass
* If multiple passes is done for multiple frames in a row, a warning
will be printed on the screen in debug builds:
### Breaking changes
A bunch of things that had "frame" in the name now has "pass" in them
instead:
* Functions called `begin_frame` and `end_frame` are now called
`begin_pass` and `end_pass`
* `FrameState` is now `PassState`
* etc
### TODO
* [x] Figure out good names for everything (`ctx.request_discard`)
* [x] Add API to query if we're gonna repeat this frame (to early-out
from expensive rendering)
* [x] Clear up naming confusion (pass vs frame) e.g. for `FrameState`

multiple passes

Unfortunately, this PR contains a bunch of breaking changes because
`Context` no longer has one style, but two. I could try to add some of
the methods back if that's desired.
The most subtle change is probably that `style_mut` mutates both the
dark and the light style (which from the usage in egui itself felt like
the right choice but might be surprising to users).
I decided to deviate a bit from the data structure suggested in the
linked issue.
Instead of this:
```rust
pub theme: Theme, // Dark or Light
pub follow_system_theme: bool, // Change [`Self::theme`] based on `RawInput::system_theme`?
```
I decided to add a `ThemePreference` enum and track the current system
theme separately.
This has a couple of benefits:
* The user's theme choice is not magically overwritten on the next
frame.
* A widget for changing the theme preference only needs to know the
`ThemePreference` and not two values.
* Persisting the `theme_preference` is fine (as opposed to persisting
the `theme` field which may actually be the system theme).
The `small_toggle_button` currently only toggles between dark and light
(so you can never get back to following the system). I think it's easy
to improve on this in a follow-up PR :)
I made the function `pub(crate)` for now because it should eventually be
a method on `ThemePreference`, not `Theme`.
To showcase the new capabilities I added a new example that uses
different "accent" colors in dark and light mode:

The syntax highlighting font size was always hardcoded to 12 or 10
depending on what case it was hitting (so not consistent). This is
particularly noticeable when you increase the font size to something
larger for the rest of the ui.
With this the default monospace font size is used by default.
Since the issue is closely related to #3549 I decided to implement the
ability to use override_font_id too.
## Visualized
Default monospace is set to 15 in all the pictures

I've been meaning to look into this for a while but finally bit the
bullet this week. Contrary to what I initially thought, the problem of
blurry lines is unrelated to feathering because it also happens with
feathering disabled.
The root cause is that lines tend to land on pixel boundaries, and
because of that, frequently used strokes (e.g. 1pt), end up partially
covering pixels. This is especially noticeable on 1ppp displays.
There were a couple of things to fix, namely: individual lines like
separators and indents but also shape strokes (e.g. Frame).
Lines were easy, I just made sure we round them to the nearest pixel
_center_, instead of the nearest pixel boundary.
Strokes were a little more complicated. To illustrate why, here’s an
example: if we're rendering a 5x5 rect (black fill, red stroke), we
would expect to see something like this:
The fill and the stroke to cover entire pixels. Instead, egui was
painting the stroke partially inside and partially outside, centered
around the shape’s path (blue line):
Both methods are valid for different use-cases but the first one is what
we’d typically want for UIs to feel crisp and pixel perfect. It's also
how CSS borders work (related to #4019 and #3284).
Luckily, we can use the normal computed for each `PathPoint` to adjust
the location of the stroke to be outside, inside, or in the middle.
These also are the 3 types of strokes available in tools like Photoshop.
This PR introduces an enum `StrokeKind` which determines if a
`PathStroke` should be tessellated outside, inside, or _on_ the path
itself. Where "outside" is defined by the directions normals point to.
Tessellator will now use `StrokeKind::Outside` for closed shapes like
rect, ellipse, etc. And `StrokeKind::Middle` for the rest since there's
no meaningful "outside" concept for open paths. This PR doesn't expose
`StrokeKind` to user-land, but we can implement that later so that users
can render shapes and decide where to place the stroke.
### Strokes test
(blue lines represent the size of the rect being rendered)
`Stroke::Middle` (current behavior, 1px and 3px are blurry)
`Stroke::Outside` (proposed default behavior for closed paths)
`Stroke::Inside` (for completeness but unused at the moment)
### Demo App
The best way to review this PR is to run the demo on a 1ppp display,
especially to test hover effects. Everything should look crisper. Also
run it in a higher dpi screen to test that nothing broke 🙏.

After (notice the sharper lines):

allowing you to return an error during app creation, which will be
returned to the caller of `run_native`.
