// Cross-posted from Freebird’s blog.

Combining the worklogs for a few days.

• Worked on testing Freebird and Puppetry with the new XR API changes coming in Blender 5.1 (related to making navigation_scale read-only). Continuing to discuss and give feedback to Blender devs on their #xr chat channel.
• Investigated why grease pencil strokes render incorrectly in VR, by digging into Blender’s source for that. Haven’t found the reason/fix yet. It seems related to draw_grease_pencil_lib.glsl, but winmat and viewport_res don’t change when we change xr_session_state.navigation_scale or xr_session_settings.base_scale.
• Added the ability to set the location of the camera preview in Puppetry.
• Submitted a fix for the regression introduced in Blender 5.0.1 (causes Blender to crash when Freebird or Puppetry are started) - https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/152237
