- blend load/save uses os message.
- image load gives os message. (remove check for slash at end of line, just let the os report an error)
- python api load image/font/text raise errors with message (was just retuning None for image and font)
- minor edits to py api errors.
- bugfix for copying a scene with FFMPEG properties set (wasnt copying the ID properties, could crash blender)
- relative path option for adding sequence strips and replaceing images.
- Remove SEQ_DESEL, better not have a flag which includes ~, use ~SEQ_ALLSEL instead.
- Rename recurs_dupli_seq -> seqbase_dupli_recursive
- Rename deep_dupli_seq -> seq_dupli_recursive
Just about all sequencer operator poll functions were requiring an active
sequence editor space type. This wasn't necessary for most of them, and prevented use
from scripts, console, etc.
This adds MULTICAM-editing support for blender. (Well, the beginning of.)
There is now a new effect track, named MULTICAM, which just selects
one of the lower tracks.
Doesn't sound that exciting, but if you combine this with A/B-Trim (moving
split points of two directly connected tracks around, while magically
resizing both strips, something to be added), you just do:
* add several tracks for your camera angles
* (optionally) sync those tracks
* add one multicam track on top
Use that multicam-track to edit your movie. (Either using fcurves on the
multicam source selector or using knife-tool and A/B-Trim.)
Compare that to:
* add several tracks
* add cross fades between them
* do some python scripting to add several fcurves to make that beast
somewhat work.
* cry out loud, using it, if you have to move cut points around
Alternatively, even harder:
* just edit the old way and put strip after strip
You might think, that this isn't really helpfull for animators, but
consider using scene-strips (in OpenGL-mode) for input, that are set for
different camera angles and can now be intercut a lot more easily...
Also: small fix on the way: the speed effect can now be used in cascade.
(Don't know, if anyone used it that way, but now it works.)
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
Inserting keyframes for properties that don't already have F-Curves shouldn't occur if auto keyframing is set to 'replace' only (i.e. see timeline -> frame -> autokey mode menu for details).
- recode of the whole sequencer audio handling
- encode audio flag removed, instead you choose None as audio codec, added None for video codec too
- ffmpeg formats/codecs: enabled: theora, ogg, vorbis; added: matroska, flac (not working, who can fix?), mp3, wav
- sequencer wave drawing
- volume animation (now also working when mixing down to a file!)
- made sequencer strip position and length values unanimatable
* Zoom and Pan should work now (thanks Aligorith for reviewing)
* mostly removed ancient drawing code
* Fit preview in Window still has issue, HOME key in preview area should be working though
* Fixed Driver version-patching code to work correctly again with the new system.
* Fix for bug #20484, by adding a new driver variable type ('Transform Channel') which makes it easier to use object/bone transforms as in the past. The main differences with using this (compared with the 'Single Prop' type) are that this allows for 'final' transforms to get used instead (i.e. constraints are also taken into account), and also that this variable type can only be used for transforms (more limited scope -> less flexibility -> point-n-click goodies can follow). Mancandy now loads correctly again.
* Added toggle for local vs worldspace transforms when working with Rot/Loc Diff variable types, and also for the newly added Transform Channel
* Removed some dead code from sequencer...
- appending scenes would not append the sound and scene ID's for sequence strips
- reload button in sequence header now reloads sounds as well.
- redrawing the sequence image view didnt work while plaing (unless play was activated from that region)
- generic functions for running a callback on sequence strips recursively. seqbase_recursive_apply() and seq_recursive_apply()
- bind marker with camera was set to home key, use Ctrl+B instead.
- multiple pastes after copying
- clear the sound handle when copying (was crashing)
- allow seq freeing without a scene (assumes seq strip isnt active and sound handle isnt set)
- free clipboard sequences on exit
- paste sequence strips using the relative playhead location from when they were copied.
TODO
- check scene pointers on paste
- detect overlaps after paste
these expose the final start and end after offsets are applied. when set this is like grabbing the handle and moving it.
* made swapping strips shuffle effects and check for overlap.
Separated preview drawing into own ARegion, this should make using View2D possible
The Sequencer now has three view types: Sequencer, Preview and split Sequencer/Preview.
Changing the preview can be done either by the combobox in the header or toggling through those types with CTRL+TAB.
Notes:
* Icon for split Sequencer/Preview view missing still.
* Naming items in the comboboxes can be improved (just Preview instead of Image Preview?)
Next steps:
* bringing back View2D handling (zoom/pan) for image preview
* experimenting with splitting the Preview ARegion for In/Out editing
* Sound strips now respect metastrips for muting. That means they
are muted if the metastrip is muted, and don't play when located
outside of the current metastrip.
* Operators now use notifiers instead of redraw tagging, added a
separate notifier for selection as well, but that is not used to
do less redraws yet.
- more api like functions for adding movie, sound & images (easier to use from pyrna api)
- operators share more settings
- renamed get_last_seq() to active_seq_get() - same for set.
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:
http://www.pasteall.org/9052/python
* new operator: set rendersize (SEQUENCE_OT_rendersize) sets the render output size in the current scene to the size of the active sequence strip
* works for movies and images right now
* TODO: currently only works if image or movie strip has been loaded (as in showing the preview for example) - reason is that otherwise the size is not initialized in the strip
