Fix turned out to remove as much "manual UI" from 3D view header as possible. Mode selector and all transform manipulators/orientations stuff are now RNA-based UI (leaving basically only edit mesh select modes with custom handlers, as they have some quite specific features).
To achieve this, four main modifications were done:
* enum-operator-generated menus are now MENU (i.e. dropdown lists) in headers too.
* All bit-flag enums expanded in ROW buttons now have a handling consistent with e.g. layers, or what we already have for transform manipulators, i.e. clicking select only one element, shift-click to select multiple ones.
* Consequently, the three RNA booleans manipulators flags are merged into a single bit-flag enum (yes, this is also an API change, though I doubt many scripts use it).
* Now the width of enum-based dropdown lists is computed from longest item name in enum, no more from a dummy place holder string (when no label/name is given).
All this allows to remove some code from 3DView/transform areas, that was actually mostly duplicating RNA/operator one.
Also done a few optimizations here and there (among others, do not pass &numitems to RNA_property_enum_items() when you do not need it, saves at least an iteration over enum items to count them).
Many thanks to Brecht for the reviews!
- Put it available as a default now (no debug value needed)
- Fixed viewport size error, viewport was badly set
(visible with border render, property regions)
- Fixed hanging lock in conflict between drawing and initialize
new renders.
consistent with projection painting.
Also did some refactoring of this code, moving the brush image creation code
out of brush.c and making it consistent with image updating code.
If you have three scenes, current is A, others are B and C.
B uses C as background, and C uses B as a background.
(which is possible via linked libraries)
If you then try to use B or C as background of A, code went to eternal loop.
Popup menus in nodes, with nodes outside window boundary, were clipped very badly, even
causing it to fill entire window.
Now the clip code nicely translates the menu horizontally to be in view.
image editor during slide like other operators, instant feedback can be nice but
is not so important here and we don't have notifiers fine grained enough to avoid
full redraws.
This is hopefully the ultimate solution against smoke blockiness near emitter.
Previously high resolution flow/emitter voxels were generated based on the low resolution ones. So if you had 32 resolution and 4 division high resolution, it still used smoke flow generated from those 32 resolution voxels. Now I introduced a new sampling method called "Full Sample" that generates full resolution flow for for high resolution domain as well.

Also changed "quick smoke" operator default voxel data interpolation mode to "Cubic B-Spline" to smoothen out it even more.
of leading zeros but otherwise the same would show in random order in the file
browser. Selecting an item would change the order of all the items.
Problem was that it was comparing by parsing the number into an int, which has
only limited precision and does not care about the number of leading zeros. Now
do the comparison directly on the string.
BL_BlenderShader was only sending over proper UV data if the current drawing mode was KX_TEXTURED. Now it also checks for (and sends data for) alpha shadows.
The BucketManager was assuming that all modified meshes were rendered when a render pass completed. However, materials that did not cast buffer shadows did not render during the shadow rendering step, and thus were never updated.
This is an alternative to using camera to scale the
scene and it's expected to be better solution because
scaling camera leads to issues with z-buffer.
Found the whole scaling thing a bit confusing,
especially for object tracking, but cleaning this up
is a bit different topic.
