- 'center', while Ctrl is held select objects from their center location
- 'enumerate', while Alt is held, give a list of objects under the mouse
- Object selection menu now uses icons with names
- operator object.select_name(name, extend=False)
- keybindings so combinations of Ctrl/Alt/Shift can be used (like in 2.4x)
- logic text input field was using deprecated ID_SCRIPT rather then ID_TXT
details
- added comments to DNA_ID.h ID types
- removed unused ID types Sector and Life
- added uiIconFromID() to get an icon from the object.
- using name for selection is weak but currently there isnt a really good way to do this.
bugfix #1: SpaceFile->files needs to be deleted on exec and cancel of the filebrowser and in init to ensure correct setting of the read function.
bugfix #2: SpaceFile->params needs to be set in file_init otherwise Python can't access params in header ui.
Server can now be set to broadcast on local network (every 10s, approximately 20 bytes of data) where client and slave can pick up its existence. This is on by default.
Default ip address is now "[default]", which means for the master that it will listen to all interface and for the clients and slave that they will automatically work out the master's address from its broadcast.
*Cleaned up Transform panel in n-key area. It's now single column so that this view can be nice and slim, while you can still access everything.
This is especially important in edit mode where you cannot change the transform values numerically from the Properties.
Transform properties don't seem to work for Metaball edit yet, so wasn't able to test this
*Removed some lingering tools in curve transform and put them in the toolbar instead.
*Improved alignment in toolbar
*Made Image Properties use regular checkmark toggle buttons
*Added Delete as an alternative to X key, as it was in 2.4x
- updated python api to check for array types rather then the length since a variable length array can be 1 or 0 length.
- python docgen added .0 to the end of floats which messed up values like 1e-05
#19302: the spin operator did not redo correct when changing properties.
Actually the problem was somewhere else, the search menu always did an
unnecessary undo push, which conflicted with an operator undo push with
the same name. Only in the case of "Spin" was this noticed, because it's
name is so short and you actually type it completely.
#19328: swapping areas could crash when dragging mouse outside the window.
Attempted fix for #19331, #19335 as well, where backspace and some other
keys give square characters instead of working as expected. Couldn't
reproducable here, so please test.
#19343: vertex paint blur was not working. shared vcol was disabled
for speed, but blurring still needs it. Also fixed brushes with
size > 64 not working correct.
#19314: non-zbuffer selection did not work with background image,
drawing it made the WM matrix go out of sync.
Forgot to mention these in previous commit:
* Manipulator type was not properly initialized, .B.blend update helps,
but still needed version patch & correct setting for new space.
* Added a utility function for the toggling region hide, instead of
duplicating the code.
* SSS preview render preprocessing pass now also uses multiple threads.
* Added version patch for unit scale, was still 0.0.
#19345: can't get out of grayed out pointer field.
#19342: item_pointerR fields can't be cleared with one item.
#19341: fix hanging tooltips when manipulating regions.
#19339: context panel still allowed tabbing, but it has no header.
#19334: editing SSS settings crashed previewrender.
#19330: object mode could not be switched on from the header menu.
This commit introduces a flag at the Reports level that can be used to indicate that it needs to be freed (on top of the flag already existing in the operator, which I guess could be removed).
Reports for operators called through python are only persisted if they indicate that they are running modal.
* Added separate menu items for Link and Append.
* Change some OPERATOR_FINISHED to OPERATOR_CANCELLED.
* Remove some IPO specific hacks, these are no longer ID blocks,
so not necessary to take into account.
* Some comment and code formatting tweaks.
* Move function to compute visible screen layers to BKE.
* Use this now in the depsgraph, was still using this all layers
to flush. Still missing a way to get the current scene in
background mode..
* Also two more function to not require a scene pointer anymore:
* DAG_object_update_flags is now DAG_id_update_flags.
* DAG_ids_flush_update is now available next to DAG_scene_flush_update.
Knife operator now doesn't crash, but repeat operator for this won't work now since the appropriate 3D-View context info is not set when the mouse is in the Tools region (i.e. when using repeat operator in the tools panels).
* #19338: Crash when using Convert operator
Uninitialised var (basact)
* Spacebar when in 3D-View EditMode for Text gets overridden by Search Menu. I've tried adding a fix there, but it doesn't seem to work. Woraround for now is shift-space for entering text.
* Fixed some compiled warnings in wm_operators.c about naming of var named 'main'
* Totally new try to get cache running
* Didn't try "bake" and such things yet
Hint
* Very verbose yet
* Please do only test new blend files, not old ones!
Please give me feedback on my blog about the old crashers.
