UGUI源码解读——Shadow、Outline和Position As UV1

Shadow继承自BaseMeshEffect，BaseMeshEffect会在enable，disable的时候引起顶点脏标记，它实现了接口IMeshModifier，接口存在一个重载函数ModifyMesh，BaseMeshEffect自身的ModifyMesh重写了参数为Mesh的，这个函数会在重建的顶点重构阶段调用，调用参数为VertextHelper的ModifyMesh，这个函数在BaseMeshEffect中是抽象的，Shadow重写它，实际上就是遍历顶点信息，拷贝一份偏移过的顶点信息，值得一提的是它用提前预设list的capacity的方式zeroalloc。Shadow面板有三个属性，effectColor、effectDistance和useGraphicAlpha，修改它们都会引起顶点脏标记

//BaseMeshEffect
public virtual void ModifyMesh(Mesh mesh)
{
    using (var vh = new VertexHelper(mesh))
    {
        ModifyMesh(vh);
        vh.FillMesh(mesh);
    }
}

public abstract void ModifyMesh(VertexHelper vh);

//Shadow
public override void ModifyMesh(VertexHelper vh)
{
    if (!IsActive())
        return;

    var output = ListPool<UIVertex>.Get();
    vh.GetUIVertexStream(output);

    ApplyShadow(output, effectColor, 0, output.Count, effectDistance.x, effectDistance.y);//这个是将ApplyShadowZeroAlloc封装了一层
    vh.Clear();
    vh.AddUIVertexTriangleStream(output);
    ListPool<UIVertex>.Release(output);
}

protected void ApplyShadowZeroAlloc(List<UIVertex> verts, Color32 color, int start, int end, float x, float y)
{
    UIVertex vt;

    var neededCapacity = verts.Count + end - start;
    if (verts.Capacity < neededCapacity)
        verts.Capacity = neededCapacity;

    for (int i = start; i < end; ++i)
    {
        vt = verts[i];
        verts.Add(vt);

        Vector3 v = vt.position;
        v.x += x;
        v.y += y;
        vt.position = v;
        var newColor = color;
        if (m_UseGraphicAlpha)
            newColor.a = (byte)((newColor.a * verts[i].color.a) / 255);
        vt.color = newColor;
        verts[i] = vt;
    }
}

Outline继承自Shadow，Shadow是拷贝一份偏移过的顶点信息，而Outline是拷贝四份在上下左右四个方位，以此实现描边效果。因为Shadow和Outline都是以倍数增加的顶点数为代价的，一般用特殊的shader来进行优化。

public override void ModifyMesh(VertexHelper vh)
{
    if (!IsActive())
        return;

    var verts = ListPool<UIVertex>.Get();
    vh.GetUIVertexStream(verts);

    var neededCpacity = verts.Count * 5;
    if (verts.Capacity < neededCpacity)
        verts.Capacity = neededCpacity;

    var start = 0;
    var end = verts.Count;
    ApplyShadowZeroAlloc(verts, effectColor, start, verts.Count, effectDistance.x, effectDistance.y);

    start = end;
    end = verts.Count;
    ApplyShadowZeroAlloc(verts, effectColor, start, verts.Count, effectDistance.x, -effectDistance.y);

    start = end;
    end = verts.Count;
    ApplyShadowZeroAlloc(verts, effectColor, start, verts.Count, -effectDistance.x, effectDistance.y);

    start = end;
    end = verts.Count;
    ApplyShadowZeroAlloc(verts, effectColor, start, verts.Count, -effectDistance.x, -effectDistance.y);

    vh.Clear();
    vh.AddUIVertexTriangleStream(verts);
    ListPool<UIVertex>.Release(verts);
}

Position As UV1继承自BaseMeshEffect，它是将顶点的position做成Vector2设置给UV1，UV1涉及到光照贴图，没用过，所以仅就了解一下。

public override void ModifyMesh(VertexHelper vh)
{
    UIVertex vert = new UIVertex();
    for (int i = 0; i < vh.currentVertCount; i++)
    {
        vh.PopulateUIVertex(ref vert, i);
        vert.uv1 =  new Vector2(vert.position.x, vert.position.y);
        vh.SetUIVertex(vert, i);
    }
}
