(though it's not completely feature-complete yet).
I ported over the remove doubles code from the
old bmesh branch for this, and split it into two
bmops, "Weld Verts" and "Remove Doubles".
Weld verts welds specific verts together, while remove
doubles finds doubles and welds them.
I also reverted the hotkey change I made earlier.
to bmesh. Yay! Creating faces from edge nets
is sill missing, I'm leaving that for later.
I added two new bmop functions, BMO_HeaderFlag_Buffer
and BMO_UnHeaderFlag_Buffer, which are header flag
version of BMO_Flag_Buffer and BMO_Unflag_Buffer.
The new functions properly handle setting/clearing
BM_SELECT via the selection API.
Start of planned DerivedMesh refactoring. The mface
interfaces in DerivedMesh have been renamed to reflect
their new status as tesselated face interfaces (rather
then the primary ones, which are now stored in mpolys).
short review: mpolys store "primary" face data, while
mfaces store the tesselated form of the mesh (generally
as triangles). mpolys are defined by mloops, and each
mpoly defines a range of loops it "owns" in the main
mloop array.
I've also added basic read-only face iterators, which
are implemented for CDDM, ccgsubsurf, and the bmeditmesh
derivedmesh. Since faces are now variable-length things,
trying to implement the same interface as mfaces would not
have worked well (especially since faces are stored as
an mpoly + a range of mloops).
I figure first we can evaluate these simple read-only
face iterators, then decide if a) we like using iterators
in DerivedMesh, b) how much of it should use them, and c)
if we want write-capable iterators.
I plan to write official docs on this design after I get
it more stable; I'm committing now because there's a rather
lot of changes, and I might do a merge soon.
that does that needed to be split in two. this made dissolve faces sometimes
not work.
also added some api functions to recalculate normals for verts, edges and
faces. and added a new flag, BM_NONORMCALC, to prevent this from happening
on individual fgon faces after they are tesselated. and made dissolve faces
happen on fkey in all the selection modes, not just face select.
how original edge loop worked, and made it so if it starts
at a boundary edge, it walks across the boundary. I'm not
sure if this is bad, most of the time I do that I want it
to do that anyway.
