In response to [#31670], I've reviewed the way that the Paste Keyframes tool for
the DopeSheet and Graph Editors works. Previously, it required you to always
select the F-Curves to paste the keyframes into before allowing you to paste
keyframes. This was because it is quite difficult to infer which ID-block's set
of curves is intended if more than one ID-block has similar curves (e.g. a scene
with two materials, and both have their diffuse color animated). The underlying
assumption and intention of the feature here was that the copy+paste were only
being used by animators to copy animation between similar curves, to transfer
and offset animation across block boundaries.
However, it turns out that many people were by far more familiar with the
simpler copy/paste paradigm from everywhere else (i.e. instead of trying to use
duplicate to copy keyframes around within their respective F-Curves).
Furthermore, in most cases there is only going to be a single character being
animated at a time (vs multiple), which means that most of the time the matching
problem is much simpler.
Hence, the Paste now works as follows:
- If there are selected F-Curves, we limit the paste-matching to only consider
those in the selected F-Curves. This makes it possible to still explicitly
specify where to paste.
- In the more general case (no prior selections), pasting will try to match
anything relevant it finds.
TODO:
- Check on whether the strictest matching level needs adjustments to limit the
number of false positives
- Testing and feedback of the new behaviour needed <--- ANIMATORS! PLEASE TEST
- Added mask sculpt brush
- Draw brush was removed from sculpt mode -- there's SculptDraw brush
- Made default strength for draw brush 1.0 which makes much more sense
especially for weight painting
Colors used by Bone Groups are now copied/assigned to Action Groups too when
they're created now. This completes the work started in r.46960 to restore this
functionality from 2.48.
Currently, there is no control over when/whether these colors are copied over
(although it is possible to disable the display of these colors for relevant
animation editors if desired). Originally I was going to make this a more
generic Keying Sets feature, though that turned out to be a bit too complex to
manage.
Other notes:
* Split out the code for copying colors to a common library function
By holding shift and "cutting" a node link a new reroute helper node can be inserted. This consists of a single socket that can be used to insert additional connection points into a link. This can be used to keep a connection point in the tree when deleting a node, or to control the path of long connections for layout cleanup.
It also changes multi-paint's "zero weight color" to black again--it was unintentionally changed to red some time late last year when an aspect of the colors were changed.
========================
The linear and angular thresholds set the speed limit (in m/s) and rotation limit (in rad/s)
under which a rigid body will go to sleep (stop moving) if it stays below the limits for a
time equal or longer than the deactivation time (sleeping is disabled is deactivation time is
set to 0).
These settings help reducing the processing spent on Physics during the game.
Previously they were only accessible from python but not working because of a bug.
Now the python functions are working and the settings are available in the Physics panel
of the World settings when using the Blender Game render engine.
Python API:
import PhysicsConstraints
PhysicsConstraints.setDeactivationLinearTreshold(float)
PhysicsConstraints.setDeactivationAngularTreshold(float)
OUTLINER_OT_parent_drop
* use scene of child instead of active scene
* poll to check if parent and child are in same scene
OUTLINER_OT_parent_clear
* get scene from child instead of only working on active scene
* poll to check if no parent
OUTLINER_OT_scene_drop && OBJECT_OT_make_links_scene
* memory leak on error
* would only link some objects on error
