* Lattices: properties editable, editmode operators, menus working
again. As a bonus you can now edit u/v/w in editmode.
* Shape Keys: some code cleanup, and added more buttons. The
value/min/max buttons don't work correct yet though.
* Fix issue with uv textures, vertex colors not being visible outside
editmode, and a few other issue. Mesh.edit_mesh is now NULL when
not in editmode.
More scroller work:
- Added subtle arrow widgets to denote a scroller can zoom the view.
- Made zoom symmetric (old convention to only zoom "one side" just
worked badly)
All kinds of changes to get it ready for UI layouts. This means RNA
and operators should be working correct, but most buttons are still
not actually there yet.
* Added near empty soft body, fluid, field and collision panels,
tweaks to cloth panels.
* Fluid bake works, but without escape or showing any progress.
* Fluid/Softbody/Cloth/Collision can now be both added as modifiers
or in the physics panels.
* Missing: fields & soft body for particles.
* Missing: proper updating softbodies, guess this code still needs
updates after pointcache refactor?
Cleanup of scroller drawing in 2D windows.

Will add 'zoom' widget circles later, as mockupped here:
http://www.reynish.com/files/blender25/fcurve_scrollbar.png
Also note the scale values are inside scroller; drawing it
on top conflicts with current frame item and markers.
Currently scroller disappear entirely when view is total.
For Joshua:
To make sliders behave nicely, the boundbox (v2d->tot) has to
be refreshed on each change. I've added it in graph drawing
now, but it could be notifier based I guess... not sure what
the correct anim api call would be. Can discuss tomorrow!
On todo:
Layout config hints so people can make scroller positions swap.
RNA
* Added the relevant active_*_index properties, with proper
get/set/range, updates and notifiers.
* Context.tool_settings.
* ToolSettings.vertex_group_weight.
Operators
* MESH_OT_uv_texture_add/remove
* MESH_OT_vertex_color_add/remove
* MESH_OT_sticky_add/remove
* OBJECT_OT_vertex_group_add/remove/assign/remove_from/
select/deselect/copy/copy_to_linked
* OBJECT_OT_shape_key_add/remove
UI
* Some updates and cleanups in list template code.
Known issue: when going in & out of editmode, uv textures and vertex
colors dissappear. I thought me->edit_mesh would be NULL when not in
edit mode but it is not?
Image Window
* Unpack operator now works.
* Some small layout code tweaks.
Info Window Header
* Moved to python UI code.
* template_running_jobs, template_operator_search added.
* Ported external data operators: pack/unpack all, make
paths relative/absolute, find/report missing files.
Also
* Report RPT_INFO too, not only warnings and errors.
* Run UI handle functions after RNA and Operators.
* Rename particle system add/remove operators, to not
include "slot", that's only there for materials because
that's what they are called now in RNA.
* start of filebrowser RNA
* system files, bookmarks, etc. now nicely inside panels to allow collapsing etc.
* filebrowser header now defined in space_filebrowser.py
TODO:
* button type for bookmarks etc. not final yet, at least should get centered still. Suggestions welcome here.
Search Menu: added feature that on opening, it shows the
current ID block, and selects it. Same can be used for other
searches, just pass on pointer to active item for the search
callback.
Also fixed arrow triangle draw for search.
* Search popup + autocomplete for bones, vertex groups, etc. This
is done with layout.item_pointerR, specifying an RNA collection to
take the items from. Used by constraints and modifiers.
* Some tests with the List template, ignore those for now..
Part one (of probably many :) of Operator review/validation.
Nothing final nor defined, it's reseach :)
- Added tool buttons in "Toolbar" (Tkey). Just four examples
for objectmode, and six for mesh editmode.
(Review in progress is operator internal state vs context, what
do redo exactly, undo vs redo syncing, when op->invoke or not,
etc. This has to be pinned down exactly and frozen asap)
- On undo, clear redo-operator-stack for now (won't work)
- Added call to better detect active/current view3d region.
ED_view3d_context_rv3d(C)
- Fixed some operators that missed correct redo (add-prim etc).
Later more fun!
Rendering preview icons is back!
Note for Andrea: the render code has been decoupled from
drawing, it needs Scene context to be able to run...
At the moment only the search menu calls the new render
code (which is the ID browse menu default anyway)
check Save Image or Export PLY operator for example.
Also these code changes:
* Added some RNA collection iterator macros to simplify code.
* Fix bpy.props.BoolProperty not working correct.
* Merge uiDefAutoButsRNA/uiDefAutoButsRNA_single into one.
* Added SCROLL button type, use like a NUMSLI basically, with
a1 used to define the scroller size.
* Add scroll and toggle colors to the Theme (toggle was set to
draw like radio in a recent commit, but it's the intention
these look different).
* Added rudimentary list template, used for object material
slots, this is WIP though.
* In popup menu, split text with line breaks over multiple
lines, makes python errors display slightly nicer.
* Menu and header more complete now.
* Clean up Game Properties panel and moved View Properties panel
to python.
* Fix some drawing issues when combining tiles, repeat and aspect,
some also from 2.4x, these options didn't work together 100%.
* Moved proportional edit, snap, autokey mode, and a few others
from Scene to ToolSettings.
* RNA wrapped properties in ToolSettings for the UV editor:
proportional edit, snap settings, selection modes.
* Particles support larger than 1 frame changes, bigger frame changes can result in inaccurate results, but it's super fast and you get a nice feeling of how the particles behave!
* "Cache to current frame" button calculates the exact result of particles at current frame.
* Current state of cache can be protected by making it a bake.
* Cache is now in memory by default, disk cache is an option.
* Only "viewport %" number of particles are calculated and cached in viewport, baking and rendering calculate all particles.
* Info on cached frames and memory usage given in ui.
* Support for exact "autocaching" of changes and large frame changes(disabled for now until exact place in event system is decided)
* "Continue physics" is probably deprecated after this and should be removed once sb & cloth use the new cache code.
Todo:
* Make softbody & cloth use the new cache things.
Other changes:
* Some cleanup of particle buttons.
Added SpaceLogic, to restore the old logic buttons into.
In future it can be used for a more advanced logic editor, with
states, behaviour, whatever. We'll see!
This commit only adds the backend for new space. Committed this
now as reference for when we need another space type. It's still
not well plugin-able (dynamic space types), but my idea is to just
have a new SpacePlugIn for this, with a neat small API to define
all relevant callbacks.
Also note the icon for the spacetype is wrong still.
* Added option for panel to be closed by default.
* Added support for RNA property and enum icons in buttons.
* Remove some deprecated RNA menu code.
* Fix issue with newly created panels not being inserted in the
right place.
* Fix issue with 3-split layout not being divided correctly.
* FIx issue with menu items not drawing correct using python UI.
Added a new template for layer-buttons, which auto-determines the layout of the buttons instead of relying on some hardcoded pattern for n-layers (i.e. 16 or 20 currently). This is a still bit rough, and could do with some refining to allow us to define what extra info (icons) should get drawn on the buttons or so.
Currently, this is only used in the Armature buttons to allow showing/hiding layers.
Quick Color picker alternative!
- only a color circle + value slider
- exits immediate after use, or slight mouse move outside picker
- use scrollwheel to change HSV 'value'. Also works while picking.
- added nicer AA'ed cursor in picker
- All color swatches change 'value' on ALT+Wheel mouse-over
Old picker is still there, under SHIFT+click on swatch. Needs
evaluation... part of UI keymap? Per button type? Or divide
picker in left/right? Or just have all those old picker buttons
in another panel... I'm not to fond of this giant old popup.
First version of search-based ID browsing. Now only in use for the
top bar screen/scene browse. The python buttons will follow.
Also made search button colors match the theme colors from menu back.
Todos for browse-search:
- "Add new" will disappear, and become a separate icon button in the
row of widgets (like X, delete).
- Drawing the preview icons in menu
- Make search menu dynamic, with configurable number of items? And/or
multi-collumn... for now it's static
- Search menu should popup with last active ID visible and selected
eg, layout.operator_context = 'INVOKE_REGION_WIN'
Needed to set the context that menu item operators are executed in.
fixed missing NULL check with anim system debug printing.
Preview renders:
- Added proper button type (BUT_EXTRA) for preview buttons, to
handle drawing better. It now first draws an alpha mask, to
ensure the preview is correctly fitting inside the widget style.
It then draws the outline.
- Added protection for executing preview renders while regular
rendering, that's not going to work...
Example sequencer menu
self.layout.column()
self.layout.item_enumO("SEQUENCER_OT_effect_strip_add", property='type', value='ADD', text="Effect Strip (Add)")
* layout.split() now takes a percentage argument to control
the split position.
* ID template now works for more than just the Text ID type,
includes and icon, and some other fixes.
Nice goodie: Preview renders!
- Added new preview.blend, allowing super wide cinemascope previews
- Draws nicely blended inside widget type, rounded corners
- Preview now renders using all available cpus/cores.
- Uses - hopefully rock stable - method, which doesn't copy or
allocate anything for previews, but just uses render API calls.
- Multiple previews are possible! But, added provision in Jobs
manager to only render one preview job at a time. If you start
more preview jobs, they're suspended until it's their turn.
Bugfix: new buttons context code crashed when going full-window.
Tweaks are still needed for notifiers. I have to figure out still
how to retrieve SpaceButs button view types...
Search menu:
- Made nicer drawing for popup version of search. It now uses
entire backdrop like pulldowns.
Search boxes for text buttons will use different style still;
if we use this option all over it shouldn't look too intrusive.
- Search menu allows scroll, to view all items. It doesn't cycle
anymore.
- Click outside search menu now cancels
- If a match is in search button, it highlights it. This also
allows ALT+CTRL+F - Enter to redo last op.
- Search popup draws higher when no no space below. No order
flipping!
Further work on new "text search" button.
- Now allows to browse items (mouse, arrow key)
- Assigns active value
- Uses different backdrop to distinguish from popup menus
- Cleaned API for it, so it can be used nicely generic
Also added a search menu, which shows all currently working
operators: CTRL+ALT+F. (mind the looks, it needs some tweaks!)
To make a menu activating a button I've added a new event...
could use some tweaks.
Important note: the callback to pass on "old string" for text
button (bone rename) couldn't work yet, added first code for new
callback, but has to be worked on further. When bone rename gets
added it can be tested.
* Make modifier and constraint templates use left/right alignment for
buttons in the header.
* Added mdef bind operator as an example of how to use local context
for a modifier, and add some code I forgot to commit last time to
make this system actually work.
Part one of new text button type: SEARCH_MENU
This opens a popup showing all matches for a typed string, nice
for object names, materials, operators, and so on.
Warning: Currently menu doesn't function yet! Only draws choices.
As test I've added an operator search button in top bar. It only
shows operators that can be used in this context now. Also that
is part of the WIP, tomorrow more fun :)
- Fix: text draw in fonts was slightly too low; it didn't calculate offset
correctly. Now it is aligned to have number characters in center.
- Fix: text clip was too wide, giving errors on extreme zoom in.
- Added boundbox-clipped default text drawing for view2d:
void UI_view2d_text_cache_rectf(View2D *v2d, rctf *rect, char *str)
(Note; also for previous commit, this cache immediately projects, so if
you change view2d while drawing, text is still on correct positions)
Added support for cached text drawing in View2D. Cache is needed to
prevent the viewmatrix being set/restored on each text drawing.
Adding a string:
void UI_view2d_text_cache_add(View2D *v2d, float x, float y, char *str)
Drawing:
void UI_view2d_text_cache_draw(ARegion *ar)
Nothing else needed; just make sure cache-draw is always called at end
of a view2d drawing function, to clear cache memory.
On todo for next: a version with a rectf boundary to clip text within.
* Added some properties of uiLayout that can be set. I've added
some API code for more than the two I've implementeds, so
ignore those for now.
* layout.active = False will gray out buttons inside a layout.
* layout.enabled = False will gray out and completely disable
the buttons inside a layout.
* Also some function renames.
Added a system for adding a "local" context in a UI layout.
This way you can define for example within a modifier panel
all operators to get the modifier in the context.
In the layout code:
uiLayoutSetContextPointer(layout, "modifier", &ptr)
layout.set_context_pointer("modifier", md)
In the operator:
ptr = CTX_data_pointer_get(C, "modifier")
md = context.modifier
