EffectWidget
============

.. versionadded:: 1.9.0

The :class:`EffectWidget` is able to apply a variety of fancy
graphical effects to
its children. It works by rendering to a series of
:class:`~kivy.graphics.Fbo` instances with custom opengl fragment shaders.
As such, effects can freely do almost anything, from inverting the
colors of the widget, to anti-aliasing, to emulating the appearance of a
crt monitor!

.. warning::
    This code is still experimental, and its API is subject to change in a
    future version.

The basic usage is as follows::

    w = EffectWidget()
    w.add_widget(Button(text='Hello!')
    w.effects = [InvertEffect(), HorizontalBlurEffect(size=2.0)]

The equivalent in kv would be::

    #: import ew kivy.uix.effectwidget
    EffectWidget:
        effects: ew.InvertEffect(), ew.HorizontalBlurEffect(size=2.0)
        Button:
            text: 'Hello!'

The effects can be a list of effects of any length, and they will be
applied sequentially.

The module comes with a range of prebuilt effects, but the interface
is designed to make it easy to create your own. Instead of writing a
full glsl shader, you provide a single function that takes
some inputs based on the screen (current pixel color, current widget
texture etc.). See the sections below for more information.

Usage Guidelines
----------------

It is not efficient to resize an :class:`EffectWidget`, as
the :class:`~kivy.graphics.Fbo` is recreated on each resize event.
If you need to resize frequently, consider doing things a different
way.

Although some effects have adjustable parameters, it is
*not* efficient to animate these, as the entire
shader is reconstructed every time. You should use glsl
uniform variables instead. The :class:`AdvancedEffectBase`
may make this easier.

.. note:: The :class:`EffectWidget` *cannot* draw outside its own
          widget area (pos -> pos + size). Any child widgets
          overlapping the boundary will be cut off at this point.

Provided Effects
----------------

The module comes with several pre-written effects. Some have
adjustable properties (e.g. blur radius). Please see the individual
effect documentation for more details.

- :class:`MonochromeEffect` - makes the widget grayscale.
- :class:`InvertEffect` - inverts the widget colors.
- :class:`ChannelMixEffect` - swaps color channels.
- :class:`ScanlinesEffect` - displays flickering scanlines.
- :class:`PixelateEffect` - pixelates the image.
- :class:`HorizontalBlurEffect` - Gaussuan blurs horizontally.
- :class:`VerticalBlurEffect` - Gaussuan blurs vertically.
- :class:`FXAAEffect` - applies a very basic anti-aliasing.

Creating Effects
----------------

Effects are designed to make it easy to create and use your own
transformations. You do this by creating and using an instance of
:class:`EffectBase` with your own custom :attr:`EffectBase.glsl`
property.

The glsl property is a string representing part of a glsl fragment
shader. You can include as many functions as you like (the string
is simply spliced into the whole shader), but it
must implement a function :code:`effect` as below::

    vec4 effect(vec4 color, sampler2D texture, vec2 tex_coords, vec2 coords)
    {
        // ... your code here
        return something;  // must be a vec4 representing the new color
    }

The full shader will calculate the normal pixel color at each point,
then call your :code:`effect` function to transform it. The
parameters are:

- **color**: The normal color of the current pixel (i.e. texture
  sampled at tex_coords).
- **texture**: The texture containing the widget's normal background.
- **tex_coords**: The normal texture_coords used to access texture.
- **coords**: The pixel indices of the current pixel.

The shader code also has access to two useful uniform variables,
:code:`time` containing the time (in seconds) since the program start,
and :code:`resolution` containing the shape (x pixels, y pixels) of
the widget.

For instance, the following simple string (taken from the `InvertEffect`)
would invert the input color but set alpha to 1.0::

    vec4 effect(vec4 color, sampler2D texture, vec2 tex_coords, vec2 coords)
    {
        return vec4(1.0 - color.xyz, 1.0);
    }

You can also set the glsl by automatically loading the string from a
file, simply set the :attr:`EffectBase.source` property of an effect.
