Access to main database is actually rarely needed, but some custom
'apply' functions do need it (like Collections' overriding of objects or
children collections).
Key shortcuts and explanation about how to use the tool should go to the
status bar, but other info can in the header so it's near where the user
is working. This distinction has not been made yet for all operators.
This error is only in Windows and Mac when select in properties the material tab.
This commit revert dc856be839 Preview: Add own opengl context to render preview images.
This shouldn't really be part of the windowmanager code. Pulling it out
now, so that we can reuse in RNA when switching display modes,
(and perhaps other places later)
In the outliner there are now icons for it, Ctrl+Click isolates a
single collections.
In the 3D view, Ctrl+H key opens a menu that is more or less the
equivalent of the old layer buttons in the header. Regular Click isolates
the collection, Shift+Click toggle the collection visibility. Pressing
number keys and letters works in this menu, which can help for quickly
selecting a specific collection.
Shortcuts for quick switching by just pressing 1/2/3/.. keys are available
again. The order can be confusing with nested collections, but that seems
unavoidable. The first numbers control the top level collections, and then
sub collections if numbers are left.
Remaining design issues:
* The 3D view menu needs to be improved: support for sub collections,
staying open on shift+click, access from the 3D view header somewhere,
shortcut key display.
* Currently collection hiding just controls per-object hiding, we plan
to separate this state still so alt+H doesn't affect collection hiding.
Happened when deleting many studiolights at the same time when the
previews were still beging calculated in the background.
Added a free function callback that is filled when the preview is being
generated. This free function will then kill the preview job
This patch also removes icons that are not valid anymore so the user
cannot accidentally render an icon where the studiolight is invalid.
In the end we should use a add/remove function in the studiolight as
currently icons are recalculated too much.
This removes OperatorRepeatContextHandle, from 5f6c45498c
since we now only have redo in the area an operator is executed in.
These values could be invalid and crashed in some cases.
These are set in the interface and aren't useful to show to users.
Other minor changes
- Rename 'Ruler/Protractor' -> 'Ruler'
- Rename Subdivide 'Quad/Tri Mode' -> 'Create N-Gons' (and invert).
