With #128051, the default timeline tool changed to
a `sequencer.select` on press with no associated
properties (before, it had `deselect_all`).
This meant that retiming key selection broke (as
reported in #129892) and strips would only deselect
on release if clicking into empty space (due to a separate
keymap item in the global sequencer keymap).
This patch reverts 97e44901b4 while keeping its fix,
in favor of a more robust solution (just add `deselect_all`
to the keymap item properties in the box select tool).
This adds a new modal operator that allows reordering columns interactively.
It's triggered by dragging the column header. Edge panning while dragging the
column to the left or right of the region is supported. Scrolling with a
horizontal scroll wheel works too.
There are three new UI elements to help the user understand what is happening.
These three elements seem to be fairly standard in other spreadsheet software.
* The column that is dragged is highlighted in its original place.
* A "shadow" of that column stays attached to the cursor.
* A line indicates where the column will be inserted.
Note: The column order is not yet persistent when columns disappear temporarily.
That will be worked on separately.

This commit adds a toggle functionality to the `brush.asset_activate`
operator that makes it behave similarly to the `paint.brush_select`
parameter of the same name.
When the operator has this option enabled, using the operator or
pressing the relevant key will either:
* Activate the specified brush and store it if the current brush does
not match the specified brush
* Activate the previously stored brush if it exists.
This option is exposed in the keymaps and enabled by default for the
Sculpt Mask brush.
This allows, for example, users to press 'M' to switch to the mask brush
and then press 'M' again to switch back to their previously active
brush.

Use the horizontal scroll wheel for panning left/right in the
3D Viewport. Similar to how it is used in 2D Views.
Also add it to the industry compatible keymap, since it is
a pretty standard/basic navigation gesture.

This implements a new operator that automatically fits the width of a column to
its content. It's triggered by double-clicking on the column edge in the header
row. This is common functionality in other spreadsheet software.

Currently, removing a node frame a frame is rather annoying. The `alt+P`
shortcut is hard to reach and probably not very intuitive. Furthermore, often
one only notices that one wants to remove a node from a frame after starting to
move the node. So one would have to put the node back down, detach it from the
frame and then start moving again.
This patch simplifies this entire process by adding a new shortcut that can be
used while dragging nodes. When `F` is pressed, the selected nodes are detached
from their parents. Alternatively, if the nodes are detached already, they may
be attached to the frame under the cursor.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/138650
Currently, the steps required to add a named frame in the node editor are quite
cumbersome:
* Press ctrl+J, which is hard to reach.
* Press F2, to rename.
This is bad, because frames are a key part of making node trees understandable.
Therefore, we should lower the barrier to adding them as much as possible.
Additionally, named frames help significantly more with readability. Therefore,
it's good to lower the barrier to adding those even more. Of course it's still
possible to click in empty space to avoid having to give a frame a name.
This patch adds a new operator to join nodes in a named frame. When triggered,
it adds the frame and automatically opens the rename menu to set the name.
Keymap changes:
* Remove `ctrl+J` which was creating a frame without label.
* Move existing functionality of `F` key to `J` key
(including `shift+F -> shift+J`).
* Use `F` for this new operator to create a named frame.

Some mice have an additional horizontal scroll wheel. This patch adds support
for receiving such events. By default it is used to scroll 2D editors left and right.
I originally developed this because I was missing it in the spreadsheet, but it
seems to be useful in many other editors too.
It's supported on Linux (Wayland), Windows and macos.

Currently, there are two main annoying problems with columns widths in the
spreadsheet:
* The initial column width is often too small. This is especially noticeable
with the ID integer attribute.
* There is no way to change the column width.
This patch improves both of these aspects. The initial column width will now be
derived from the content of the spreadsheet. This initial width is then stored
in DNA to make it editable and to avoid having to recompute it on each redraw.
Furthermore, there is a new modal operator to change the width of a column.

This feature allows you to change postion of origin/pivot for images
without changing their position.
It is implemented as property of transform operator. It is activated
by pressing `Ctrl + .` shortcut.
Move Origin item was also added to transform menu.
Origin can be snapped to 3x3 grid on strip image. This represents
most usual anchor points.

This merges the `GRAPH_OT_keyframe_jump` operator into the more generic
`SCREEN_OT_keyframe_jump` operator. (the former introduced with #108549)
The functionality of both operators is retained by running
a `switch/case` based on the editor type.
Doing so, we can filter out the Dope Sheet as well which fixes#93944
The `GRAPH_OT_keyframe_jump` is preserved, but when it is called,
it generates a warning stating it should not be used anymore.
It then calls directly into the `SCREEN_OT_keyframe_jump` to
ensure functionality doesn't drift apart.

This pull request adds options to hide and show strips in the Sequencer
Preview, using the same shortcuts. Included "Show/Hide" operators in the Strips
menu of preview mode. It only works on strips that are visible in the preview
at the current frame. The Unmute operator now shows all hidden strips in
the preview at the current frame, since it's not possible to select hidden strips
in sequencer preview.

This patch completely reworks the slip operator from the ground up,
reorganizing code to be simpler and adding more clarifying documentation.
Major Changes:
- Add modal keymap to the operator along with an interactive status bar.
- Show offset overlays to the left and right of strips whenever slipping.
- Add option to "clamp" slipped strips.
- Rework input to be accumulative, avoiding "jumps" when transitioning in/out
of precision mode.
Fixes:
- Properly draw header when initializing operator before any events have been
sent, and reorganize event flow so that all events have an immediate effect.
- Properly clamp subframe slips.

Add support for a 5th modifier key called "hyper",
this is a modifier supported on Wayland & X11 although
other platforms could support an additional modifier too.
Both GNOME and KDE can map CapsLock to Hyper.
Other compositors can use the XKB_DEFAULT_OPTIONS environment variable.
This allows users to have an additional modifier for their own use
that doesn't conflict with other keys.

Rename to be more consistent with other Blender keymaps, as well as the
naming convention used in "View Type."
- "SequencerCommon" -> "Video Sequence Editor"
- "SequencerPreview" -> "Preview"
- "Sequencer Timeline Tool" -> "Sequencer Tool"
- "Sequencer Preview Tool" -> "Preview Tool"
There is versioning in place to make sure custom keyconfigs keep working.
Once #131102 goes through, if we would like to rename the "Sequencer"
view type to "Timeline" or "Sequencer Timeline," then we can make the
necessary changes here too.

Operator ANIM_OT_change_frame currently has a hidden feature when used
within the Sequencer, called "Solo Preview". But this feature is not
advertised anywhere in the interface. This PR adds a new property to
the operator called "seq_preview" that enables this feature and then
shows the name as "Set Frame (Solo Preview)".
Though "Point Cloud" written as two words is technically correct and should be used in the UI, as one word it's typically easier to write and parse when reading. We had a mix of both before this patch, so better to unify this as well.
This commit also renames the editor/intern/ files to remove pointcloud_ prefix.
point_cloud was only preserved on the user facing strings:
* is_type_point_cloud
* use_new_point_cloud_type
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/134803

Select All operator and boiler plate for future point cloud operators.
The selection code is basically copied/inspired by the curves selection
code. A lot of it could probably be moved to shared attribute selection
functions.
Note, while this patch is working well, there are some caveats
to test it:
* Shortcuts are being defined (you can see them in the Preferences). Yet
they are not working for whatever reason.
* There is no way to visualize the selection. I've been testing it by
using a Nodes tool that changes the material based on selection.

Box select is broken for all node editors. It ignores selection modes and always uses the mode `Set a new selection`.
The operator `NODE_OT_select_box` works fine, but clicking anywhere in the node editor calls `NODE_OT_select` first, so we need to make sure it has no undesired side effects when it is not run.

Artists often want to quickly switch back and forth between two or more nodes while compositing.
This patch implements two operators `NODE_OT_viewer_shortcut_set` and `NODE_OT_viewer_shortcut_get` that allow users to map a viewer node to a shortcut. For example, pressing `cltr+1` while a node is selected, assigns that node to the shortcut `1`, creates a viewer node if it has none attached and sets that viewer node to active. Pressing `1` will set the active node with shortcut `1` to active.
Shortcuts are saved in DNA to preserve them after saving/loading blend files.
Limitations:
- Only compositor node tree is supported, because shading editor has no viewer node and geometry nodes viewer works differently.

This implements all the auto masking options in sculpt mode.
* Stroke: Only affects strokes that are initially under the cursor.
* Layer: Only affect strokes in the same layer as the initial strokes under the cursor.
* Material: Only affect strokes with the same material as the initial strokes under the cursor.
* Active Layer: Only affect strokes in the active layer.
* Active Material: Only affect strokes that use the active material.
The `Active Layer` toggle in the toolbar has been moved to this panel.

The interpolate tool was using a linear re-sampling of the curves, which changes
non-uniform point distributions can causes unexpected shifts in points along the
curve, even very close to an input stroke (mix factor ~0 or ~1).
This patch adds an alternative interpolation function with explicit segment
indices and fractions, which can then be computed by the interpolation tool.
The point segment factors are chosen such that each point of the input strokes
has an exact matching point in the interpolation. When the factor is close to
0 or 1 the shape of the curve thus matches the respective input exactly.
This approach is more similar to what GPv2 did, except instead of sub-dividing
each segment it simply generates a _local_ uniform sample to fit more points
into the same segment. These extra points are colinear at the extremes of the
mix factor range, so the curve matches the input curves visually.

This commit implements most features needed for simple text editing.
Active text strip can be edited in preview by pressing tab key, which
enabled text editing mode. With this mode active, outline matches text
boundary box and cursor is drawn.
Cursor can be moved with usual keys. Pressing shift starts selection.
Selection and navigation works when text is scaled or rotated. Mirrored
text is not supported in this PR. it can be done, but the text is
unreadable that way, so I kept it simple.
Multi line text is supported. Pressing return key starts new line.
Copy/paste operator uses OS copy paste buffer, so text from other apps
can be pasted.
Text is still limited to 512 characters. Text string property still
exists in side panel and is limited to single line. Individual
characters can not be styled in different way like in 3D viewport, but
the code is mostly ready for such feature.

The removal of the UNDO flag to prevent adding undo steps when using the
`paint.sample_color` operator results in the "Sample Merged" option
being inaccessible to users without them adding a keymap of their own.
This commit makes the following changes:
* For Texture Paint using the default blender keymap, the Shift-Ctrl-X
keybind is assigned to this operator with the merged option set to True
* For Texture Paint, using the industry compatible keymap, the Shift-I
keybind is assigned to this operator with the merged option set to
True
This parameter is only relevant for 3D Texture Painting so it is not
added to the other modes.
For all other `paint.sample_color` entries in both the keymap and in
some menus, the `merge` option is explicitly set to False.

In Blender 4.2 in Grease Pencil draw mode it was possible to
erase strokes using box and lasso gestures.
Under the hood, these were just using the selection operators
that had special deletion handling if the object was in draw mode.
Rather than hacking this into the selection operations, this adds
two new operators:
* `grease_pencil.erase_lasso`
* `grease_pencil.erase_box`
When using one of the erase operations with auto-key, the previous
keyframe will be duplicated to the current frame (for the drawings
that are affected by the eraser).
They are mapped to the same shortcuts than the selection
operators in Blender 4.2.
* Lasso erase: `Ctrl`+`Alt`+`RMB`.
* Box erase: `B`.
This is part of #130518.
