Now there's an option for the owner to follow the path of the target cyclically. Previously, if the owner moved past the extents of the side of the bounding-box used for the calculations, the object was placed on the curve at the nearest extent.
This option is only really useful if the curve itself is cyclic, although you can still use it otherwise. To enable, just turn on the cyclic option.
This commit fixes several bugs related to animating armatures. I've also tidied up the formatting in a few files along the way, and also commented the flags for this pose->flag.
What's new/fixed:
* Undo will no longer destroy entire un-keyframed poses. Now it behaves as expected, and only reverses the most recent change.
* On some files, POSE_DO_UNLOCK somehow got set on files and never cleared. The symptom of this was a file in which you suddenly could no longer pose an armature at all without using auto-keyframing. A check to prevent this from happening again has been added (it will also fix old files too)
Notes:
- Now, all PoseChannels get tagged with BONE_UNKEYED after they have been transformed. This flag prevents IPO data being flushed over these new values, even after undo.
- These tags only get removed on frame-changes or inserting new keyframes.
Added some features to the NLA Editor that had previously only been added for the Action Editor.
* It is now possible to choose whether timing is displayed in Frames or Seconds like in many of the other Animation Editors. Use Ctrl-T or the View menu to change this.
* Autosnap behaviour from Action Editor is now also available for the NLA Editor. It was partially done in the previous commit (for transform). Use the new combo-box on the NLA Editor header (like the one on the Action Editor header) to set this.
* editaction.c: silenced a compiler warning from the previous commit related to a function which is no longer needed.
I've refactored the Action and NLA Editor Transform tools to use the Transform System instead of setting up their own transform loops. This should have happened ages ago, but no-one got around to doing so.
* There are still a few bugs left to iron out of a few features, but on the whole it should work as well as it used to. These are: the values which get displayed when working with NLA-scaled actions may not all be correct yet; and the Time-Slide tool in the Action Editor is currently kindof broken.
* One of the main benefits of this work, is that it is now possible to use Numeric Input during Transforms.
* Also, a bug that meant that it was not possible to negatively scale keyframes in the Action Editor has been resolved.
popup menu - more manageable when you've got a lot of scenes.
Also changed an error message from using a popup menu to the proper
error() function with icon etc.
Previously if the texture node was not connected directly as the
second input to a node like Mix, the size of the generated image
was initialised to 140x140, which is not that useful. It now is
initialised to the size of the render result if it exists, and if
not, the size of the scene render sizeX/sizeY.
This alleviates bug #7068, which is caused by the displace node
trying to get pixels from a texture node, where the texture node
doesn't contain pixels to cover the entire image (only 140x140)
but it's not really a bulletproof solution...
this bug is in 2.45 but can work around by setting it manually

changed how draw modes work - when displaying textured meshes in editmode, only draw selected edges when "Edge Draw" is not enabled. this makes it easy to see the texture/mapping without edges getting in the way.
This means editmode can draw like UV/Face mode did when "Draw Edges" was disabled.
Also made the active vert/edge/face color themeable, still need to set the default to somthing other then pink.
transform manipulator was shown in sculpt mode which is inconsistant sicne G key dosnt work and other painting modes have this disabled. - thanks theeth for finding this.
* stupid misplacement of declaration
* replacing fmodf with fmod (fmodf not available with MSVC7.1 when compiling C-code)
* appending CXXFLAGS to CCFLAGS in tools/Blender.py to avoid linking errors with runtime library (/MT not set)
- jesterKing, could you please check if that's ok?
Changed some of the retopo functions to use doubles instead of shorts; this makes the transformation more accurate if the view is zoomed out far enough to have multiple vertices appear at the same pixel location.
(functionality from recently removed python script: uvcalc_from_adjacent.py)
This is useful when adding faces in areas that are alredy UV mapped, this can be used to snap the selected face to the existing face's UV's.
using the last selected face was almost good enough however when selecting verts and edges the last selected face would become inactive and the space image would flicker about too much.
The active face is used for getting the space image at the moment and keeps scripts that use this flag working also.
This has 2 commands to get and set, so the variable is not accessed directly.
all "UV Calculate" scripts work now
last commit crashed when in solid draw mode, it seems subsurf modifier is ignoring the displayMask since MTFACE is available. just made it do a null check for now.
uvcalc_follow_active_coords.py - should be done inC and put in the snap menu.
this is really slow, its unuseable on suzanne subdivided twice on my computer with 2.45 and trunk, this could be sped up however it would need to be subsurf spesific.
Changed how the sticky setting is stored in DNA - (as a char rather then 2 flags).
replaced the UV/FACE icon with another needed for the sticky menu.
removed 2 unused icons.
commented the UV transform panel since it only had 2 buttons in it.
depgraph update calls needed to be added to Ctrl+V/E/F menu's because some commands were crashing.
Bumped the subversion to 2, so the default aspect is set to 1:1.
Made "Repeat Image" option time image drawing and bail out early if its taking too long. (quater of a sec max) this could be avoided if the texture was drawn on a quad, but that wouldnt support other image draw options.
This is a good short term solution because it was possibly to lock up blender if you zoomed out a long way then enabled "Repeat Image".
added an optional view setting - Repeat/Tile image display so mapping with tiled textures you dont have to guess the locations or look in the 3d view to see what your mapping to.
copy and face menu was missing depgraph update calls.
changed how image replace works,
it used to load a new image and then assign that image to all faces in meshes active UV layer.
without replacing images in textures or images on inactive UV layers
now it simply changes the filename of the existing image and reloads the contense.
This is different in some other subtle ways,
1) replace used to use an existing image if it was available,
this could be confusing because when I replaced with an image I didnt like, but had alredy applied to objects in some other scene, replacing again would alter the images from models unintentionally.
2) since replace used to load a new image, it would load with a new name. at the moment the name is left unchanged,
This is better when dealing with linked libraries. because when replacing a images, anything linking to that texture gets broken. since imaged can get automatically named strings longer then its possible to enter into the user interface, you could wind up with some really annoying cases where it wasnt possible to type in the original name again.
Since this replace effects everything usiung the image, we may want to have 2 replace functions, "Replace Globaly" and "Replace in Mesh"
When mapping multiple images on 1 mesh, the UV coordinates often overlap and in many cases you only want to edit the uv coords for the faces applied to that image,
this is an option that only displays UV's for faces use the currently displayed image.
made the UV layer menu a generic functions (can make a menu from the names of any custimdata layer type)
added a menu in the UV window for selecting teh editnmode UV layer - If there ends up not being enough room in the header this may need to be removed.
