What

Fixes #753. Fixes #2503. Fixes #2269

Adds a new scene part to visualize all transform arrows - decided to avoid the term "gizmo" since gizmos as they are used for manipulating an object (e.g. Blender, Unity3D, Unreal etc.) do have quite different properties in what they need to show and are typically not used to visualize the actual transform.

Introduces two new properties that (like all other object properties) will need to be componetized and be part of the blueprint apis:

  • transform visibility: On by default iff the entity or any of its children has a pinhole transform or if the entity doesn't have any other components than Transform3D
  • transform arrow length: By default a heuristic world bounding box based scale, can be chosen freely per object.

Polished the api_demo#transform_test a little bit to be able to use it as a test case for this:

Note in particular that skew & scale works as expected:
image

(this shows two transforms on the same spot, one rotated along x, one scaled along x)

Pinhole cameras no longer are hacked to have their private gizmo - clicking it clicks the entity with the transform now, now the pinhole camera (this may be the same, see #2568):

Bit on the fence if making the arrows that thin was a good choice. Might remove the arrow heads now - or make them bigger? On select they almost look nicest. Disabling the color gradient on the other hand seems like a clear win

Definitely bigger arrow heads. The thickness is good imho.

I think this also closes #2269

re_renderer lines can now configure those arrow heads (:

and it also has a safe guard against arrows that would be longer than the entire line:

Didn't have time for a full review :/ I'll maybe be back on Wednesday

I'm a bit worried about the pinhole-transform-related changes. Make sure you test with tests/python/view_coordinates/main.py

Having a pass and trying to touch less things. Might be that there's some merge related confusion/problems trickling in 😬

Looks good (modulo some better naming and comments)!

And the thin arrows looks so much better ❤️

Release 0.8 - Infrastructure investments and more transform improveme…
df05f49 
…nts - 2023-07-27 (#2842)

## [0.8.0](v0.7.0...v0.8.0) -
Infrastructure investments and more transform improvements - 2023-07-27

[Rerun](https://www.rerun.io/) is an easy-to-use visualization toolbox
for computer vision and robotics.

* Python: `pip install rerun-sdk`
* Rust: `cargo add rerun` and `cargo install rerun-cli`
* Online demo: <https://demo.rerun.io/version/0.8.0/>


### Overview & Highlights
- `log_pinhole` is now easier to use in simple cases and supports
non-RDF camera coordinates.
[#2614](#2614)
- You only need to set focal length and optional principal point instead
of setting the full 3x3 matrix.
- There is also a new argument: `camera_xyz` for setting the coordinate
system. The default is RDF (the old
default). This affects the visible camera frustum, how rays are
projected when hovering a 2D image, and how depth
   clouds are projected.
- The visualizer can now show coordinate arrows for all affine
transforms within the view.
[#2577](#2577)
- Linestrips and oriented bounding boxes can now be logged via batch
APIs in python.
- See: `log_linestrips_2d`, `log_linestrips_3d`,
[#2822](#2822) and `log_obbs`
[#2823](#2823)
- Rust users that build their own Viewer applications can now add fully
custom Space Views. Find more information
[here](https://www.rerun.io/docs/howto/extend-ui#custom-space-views-classes).
- New optional `flush_timeout` specifies how long Rerun will wait if a
TCP stream is disconnected during a flush.
[#2821](#2821)
- In Rust, `RecordingStream::connect` now requires `flush_timeout`
specified as an `Option<Duration>`.
- To keep default behavior, this can be specified using the
`rerun::default_flush_time()` helper.
- In Python `flush_init_sec` is now an optional argument to
`rr.connect()`
- In Rust, the `RecordingStream` now offers a stateful time API, similar
to the Python APIs. [#2506](#2506)
- You can now call `set_time_sequence`, `set_time_seconds`, and
`set_time_nanos` directly on the `RecordingStream`,
     which will set the time for all subsequent logs using that stream.
- This can be used as an alternative to the the previous
`MsgSender::with_time` APIs.
- The Rerun SDK now defaults to 8ms long microbatches instead of 50ms.
This makes the default behavior more suitable
for use-cases like real-time video feeds.
[#2220](#2220)
- Check out [the microbatching
docs](https://www.rerun.io/docs/reference/sdk-micro-batching) for more
information
   on fine-tuning the micro-batching behavior.
- The web viewer now incremental loads `.rrd` files when streaming over
HTTP. [#2412](#2412)

![Open Photogrammetry
Preview](https://static.rerun.io/9fa26e73a197690e0403cd35f29e31c2941dea36_release_080_photogrammetry_full.png)

### Ongoing Refactors
- There have been a number of significant internal changes going on
during this release with little visible impact.
This work will land across future releases, but is highlighted here
since much of it is visible through the
   changelog.
- The layout of the Viewer is now controlled by a Blueprint datastore.
In the future this will allow for direct API
control of the layout and configuration of the Viewer. A very early
prototype of this functionality is available
    via the `rerun.experimental` module in Python.
- An entirely new code-generation framework has been brought online for
Rust, Python and C++. This will eventually enable
new object-centric APIs with a more scalable, consistent, and ergonomic
experience.
- Bringup of C++ support is now underway and will eventually become our
third officially supported SDK language.

### Known Regressions
- Due to the Blueprint storage migration, blueprint persistence on web
is currently broken. Will be resolved in:
