Reset transform restriction flags when switching to other transformations while running.
Also don't draw constraint if no constraint flag is on (old annoyance).
Custom Orientations can be added with Ctrl-Shift-C (hotkey suggestions are welcomed), this adds and select the new alignment. Custom Orientations can also be added, deleted, selected from the Transform Orientations panel (View -> Transform Orientations). Standard orientations (global, local, normal, view) can also be selected from this panel.
If you plan on using only a single custom orientation and don't really need a list, I suggest you use the hotkey as it adds and selects at the same time.
Custom Orientations are save in the scene and are selected per 3D view (like normal orientation).
Adding from an object, the orientation is a normalized version of the object's orientation.
Adding from mesh data, a single element (vertex, edge, face) must be selected in its respective selection mode. Vertex orientation Z-axis is based on the normal, edge Z-axis on the edge itself (X-axis is on the XoY plane when possible, Y-axis is perpendicular to the rest). Face orientation Z-axis is the face normal, X-axis is perpendicular to the first edge, Y-axis is perpendicular to the rest.
(More logical orientations can be suggested).
I plan to add: 2 vertice (connected or not) => edge orientation , 3 vertice = face orientation
Differences from the patch:
- orientations no longer link back to the object they came from, everything is copy on creation.
- orientations are overwritten based on name (if you add an orientation with the same name as one that already exists, it overwrites the old one)
- [#6112] is this an extrusion bug?
When extruding, x-mirror was giving weird behavior since the extruded vertice could match with their non-extruded counterpart on the other side.
The solution is to disable x-mirror (with a transform context flag, like disabling PET) in that case.
- External constraint setup calls (BIF_*) didn't setup some internal structs properly.
For the user, this resulted in some transform (extrude particularly) showing a full 3d vector in the header instead of a scalar along the constraint axis (this messed up num input a bit too, you could type values in unused axis).
draws into the
frame.
This patch includes some changes I made...
* use blenders bitmap fonts (rather then own fonts)
* select font size
* user interface layout changes
* Marker as another image stamp option
Also added some new API calls
BMF_GetFontHeight(font);
BMF_DrawStringBuf(...); - so we can draw text into an imbuf's image buffer.
get_frame_marker(frame) - get the last marker from the frame.
IMB_rectfill_area(...) - fill in an image buffer with a rectangle area of color.
TODO - draw stamp info in 3d view, at the moment it just displays in the animation.
Now MMB-constraint select should now work better than it did after the refactor. I've made some changes to setNearestAxis so that it is now an entrypoint from which spacetype (currently divided into 3D or 2D) specific methods can be used. The old code for this (IPO MMB-constraint) has effectively been restored.
[ #6690 ] Shift and widget translation cause an uncontrolled move in side or front view
There was a tentative fix for that earlier, but the limit used was too low. This fixes it and ensures sane output.
Fix float error in Transform Contraint with planar constraints when the plane was perpendicular to the viewport. This could cause some weird erratic behavior.
Draw a circle around the snapping point for visual aid.
Different snapping target method, switchable in the 3d view header menu in the Transform menu.
* Closest: Snaps the closest vertex to the point
* Median: Snaps the median of the selection to the point
* Center: Snaps the transform center to the point (this is different from median because you can use Cursor/Boundbox as center)
Fix a bug with constraints/snap handling.
[ #4272 ] Camera zooming problem
Move the camera in camera view could block inexplicably sometimes.
Was a silly programmation error that any competant compiler should have given a warning for. Alas, I'm using gcc...
Bug #3733
Constraining on a perpendicular axis was broken on (half - 1) cases.
Silly oversight on my side which didn't turn out in the test case (moving camera in and out) and only appeared in front view (not side nor top) because of positive reasons.
Frankly, I still think translating an object perpendicular to the viewport is a bit silly, but now, at least, people can be silly in a predictable fashion.
While investigating alternative filters (Mitchell), I found two small
errors in the Gauss code, it clipped wrong and multiplied wrong, causing
settings other than filter size 1.0 to not work properly.
Took the last-minute liberty to add more filter types in Blender too.
Also wrote an extensive log about how sampling & filtering in Blender
works.

*NOTE*: Some UI decision done in this commit will most likely be revised, all flame shall go in /dev/null. Constructive discussions of course welcomed.
This commit merges manipulator orientation selection back in "traditional" transform.
That's how it works:
- The dropdown in the 3D view header is always visible
- The orientation chosen will be used when choosing an axis with MMB and for the *second* key press of X,Y,Z
However, Local orientation doesn't use the one calculated by the manipulator. This is to ensure that multiple object local and armatures in pose still works as before.
- Alt-Space (to change the orientation) works during transform
New Transform orientation: View, using the view axis.
Fixes for the following bugs:
- Constraint projection code "jammed" if input vector was <0,0,0>, reported a couple of times on IRC. Thanks to Basse for the example file.
- Transform on texspace crashed on objects without texspace data (camera, lamp, ...). This was reported in tracker.
- Numinput with lock constraints didn't work correctly. Reported on elysiun
Probably some others that I'm forgetting
I also moved a couple of functions around in an attempt to make things clearer.
had to add a new feature to the 3d window, to collect "after draw" objects,
which get drawn as last, after a clear of the zbuffer.
Same method can be used for nice OpenGL transparent draw, the system is
ready for it, do that later.
The huge commit is caused by cleaning up globals from struct Global. Many
variables were unused or just not needed anymore. Did that to move the ugly
G.zbuf to where it belongs, in the View3D space struct. :)
Aim was to get a total refresh of the animation system. This
is needed because;
- we need to upgrade it with 21st century features
- current code is spaghetti/hack combo, and hides good design
- it should become lag-free with using dependency graphs
A full log, with complete code API/structure/design explanation
will follow, that's a load of work... so here below the list with
hot changes;
- The entire object update system (matrices, geometry) is now
centralized. Calls to where_is_object and makeDispList are
forbidden, instead we tag objects 'changed' and let the
depgraph code sort it out
- Removed all old "Ika" code
- Depgraph is aware of all relationships, including meta balls,
constraints, bevelcurve, and so on.
- Made depgraph aware of relation types and layers, to do smart
flushing of 'changed' events. Nothing gets calculated too often!
- Transform uses depgraph to detect changes
- On frame-advance, depgraph flushes animated changes
Armatures;
Almost all armature related code has been fully built from scratch.
It now reveils the original design much better, with a very clean
implementation, lag free without even calculating each Bone more than
once. Result is quite a speedup yes!
Important to note is;
1) Armature is data containing the 'rest position'
2) Pose is the changes of rest position, and always on object level.
That way more Objects can use same Pose. Also constraints are in Pose
3) Actions only contain the Ipos to change values in Poses.
- Bones draw unrotated now
- Drawing bones speedup enormously (10-20 times)
- Bone selecting in EditMode, selection state is saved for PoseMode,
and vice-versa
- Undo in editmode
- Bone renaming does vertexgroups, constraints, posechannels, actions,
for all users of Armature in entire file
- Added Bone renaming in NKey panel
- Nkey PoseMode shows eulers now
- EditMode and PoseMode now have 'active' bone too (last clicked)
- Parenting in EditMode' CTRL+P, ALT+P, with nice options!
- Pose is added in Outliner now, with showing that constraints are in
the Pose, not Armature
- Disconnected IK solving from constraints. It's a separate phase now,
on top of the full Pose calculations
- Pose itself has a dependency graph too, so evaluation order is lag free.
TODO NOW;
- Rotating in Posemode has incorrect inverse transform (Martin will fix)
- Python Bone/Armature/Pose API disabled... needs full recode too
(wait for my doc!)
- Game engine will need upgrade too
- Depgraph code needs revision, cleanup, can be much faster!
(But, compliments for Jean-Luc, it works like a charm!)
- IK changed, it now doesnt use previous position to advance to next
position anymore. That system looks nice (no flips) but is not well
suited for NLA and background render.
TODO LATER;
We now can do loadsa new nifty features as well; like:
- Kill PoseMode (can be option for armatures itself)
- Make B-Bones (Bezier, Bspline, like for spines)
- Move all silly button level edit to 3d window (like CTRL+I = add
IK)
- Much better & informative drawing
- Fix action/nla editors
- Put all ipos in Actions (object, mesh key, lamp color)
- Add hooks
- Null bones
- Much more advanced constraints...
Bugfixes;
- OGL render (view3d header) had wrong first frame on anim render
- Ipo 'recording' mode had wrong playback speed
- Vertex-key mode now sticks to show 'active key', until frame change
-Ton-
Cleanup in transform.c: removed uneeded includes and removed REPEAT experiment.
Split off manipulator init function, no need to resort on hacks to setup stuff before starting transform anymore.
Fix0r3d single axis projection for constraints. It deals with perspective correctly now (as much as planar constraints).
- translate+scale : arrow at end of axis
- translate+rotate: draws axis lines now
- while translate: draws the axis line too
And: GCC was nagging about Martin's precious code!
transform_constraints.c:745: warning: suggest parentheses around comparison
in operand of &
Apparently the if(a & b == c) is undefined? Whatever!
This time, probably for good since I've really tested it through and the z factor used there never gives overflow and is correctly calibrated with both the real zfac and the zoom level.
His fix was good, except that it switched to project_float instead of project_short, and that's not good because we're renormalizing the vector after that, which maximizes the float errors. Since it's scalling the axis anyway with the zfac method, it can use project_short safely (I tested it with the bug tracker file that triggered the fix in the first place).
- Bug #2530
The MMB Transform constraint 'chooser' used projection code that didnt
work when zoomed in extreme. Needed a correction to scale projected
coordinate according zoomlevel.
- NKEY panel for objects: click on left/right side of scale button now
goes with increments of 0.1 (was 1.0)
- Moving window edges in Screen: prevented top header from becoming too
small due to grid-snapping. Was visible now with using Texture Font.
- Splited off the event treatment into a fonction of its own
- Splited off the initialisation phase into a function of its own (will have to do it for the manipulator function too)
Calling transform now works like this:
initTransform(mode, context)
- possible post init calls, constraints mostly
Transform()
- eventually, the postTransform function, so that Transform is just a simple big loop which could in the end just be tied in the blender event system instead.
- Added a state variable in TransInfo to replace the ret_val local variable. Possible values are: TRANS_RUNNING, TRANS_CANCEL, TRANS_CONFIRM
- Tied MMB and the hotkey select for constraint together, so selecting an axis with MMB and pressing the axis key after that goes to local mode on that axis. Much less confusing.
Hope Martin likes this simple hack. :)
Also; added flag in constraint to denote whether its local or not. That
way its possible to:
- prevent local scale and rotate on multiple objects to change own position
- draw constraint lines cleaner
Push/Pull had a problem with constraints enabling/disabling. Fixed
Restablished infinite line for constraint draw (when not using manipulator) as discussed in meeting.
MMB click with no constraint selects a constraint right away (the axis selector doesn't flash on screen)
MMB click with a constraint removes the constraint
MMB click-drag in both case (with and without a constraint) uses the axis selector.
stopConstraint didn't remove the CON_SELECT flag, so cancelling transform while selecting a constraint and then reentering transform was funny. Fixed
Camera rotation fix (was off centered because it used persinv instead of viewinv. Now rotation center is always center screen in camera mode. (Still need to fix the helpline not showing)
Numinput constraint function was no good, didn't check if a constraint was even on... Fixed.
Rotation was missing constraint text in header print. Fixed.
further loss of Hos' hair during tuhopuu merges.
This doesn't change any user functionality. 'Mode' can be
GL_LINE_LOOP for a circle outline (as it currently is), GL_POLYGON
for a filled circle, or whatever gl mode you like.
