Some more work on UI drawing code, added a generic structure
for how widgets will be defined. It's still a wrapper on top
of old buttons. Docs follow still.
Some visual improvements;
- more button types supported (check render buttons)
- pressed state is shown
- better 'panel' triangle AA, and new divider style
Still a lot of work here. I expect the next days/weeks to
be much more coding too, had to catch up with a lot of other
Blender stuff. There's more (excitement) going on than code. :)
* Fix sometimes non-working close/open button.
* Fix panels being a bit out of the view on startup.
* Fix too large totrct region for view2d.
* Fix wrong panel order when changing vertical <-> horizontal.
* Fix wrong panel positions after switching contexts.
* Fix an access of freed memory when collapsing panels.
* Free align mode works again.
* Animations work again.
to WM_operator_menu for example, but popping up the redo menu. This is
useful for operators like particles rekey, which makes no sense without
specifying the number of keys.
- Register python panels
- Added a generic class checking function BPY_class_validate() for panels/operators.
- No button drawing yet
Brecht, Added RNA_enum_value_from_id() and RNA_enum_id_from_value() to rna_access.c to do lookups between identifiers and values of EnumPropertyItem's, Not sure if these should go here.
When inserting keyframes in the 3D-View (support will be extended to other editors in due course) using the IKEY hotkey, the menu which appears will now consist of 3 parts:
* 'Active Keying Set' - this option allows you to use the user-defined KeyingSet which is active for the current scene (i.e. the one seen in the TimeLine/Outliner headers)
* User defined Keying Sets - a list of all such available KeyingSets is included, and entries can be chosen from there
* Built-In Keying Sets - see later...
To achieve this, several changes needed to be made first:
* Added support for 'relative' in addition to 'absolute' Keying Sets. Relative Keying Sets are Keying Sets which operate on data from the current context (i.e. a 'location' KeyingSet will add location keyframes for selected objects/bones/nodes as opposed to location keyframes for some particular object). The is a tentative 'templates' requirement system here, which still needs to be fully fleshed out.
* Added support for builtin Keying Sets (i.e. 'Location', 'Rotation', 'Scaling', and 'LocRot' as a few initial demonstrations), which replaces the temporary Insert Keyframe operator for the 3D-View (IKEY). These are effectively relative Keying Set definitions which are included in Blender by default and stored in a list separate from user-defined ones. Volunteer help in defining a few more of these for other editors will be welcome soon.
* Removed/replaced much of the crappy temporary Keyframing operator code, though a few tweaks could still be done.
* Added support for RNA pointer buttons. It's like the existing
ID pointer buttons but with an icon, and autocomplete works.
There's some drawing issues currently but don't want to
interfere with the refactoring here. Also todo is support for
things like vertex groups or bones.
*******
ported some of the scene buttons to the new system
- added RNA_SceneRenderData struct to rna
- added a warning print to uiItemR when it can't find the property
- what is not there is due to relating entry not being in RNA
- anim button does not work
Im commiting this so we have much more wider test area then text and object buttons
EditMesh *EM_GetEditMesh(Mesh *me);
void EM_EndEditMesh(Mesh *me, EditMesh *em);
as discussed on the mailling list, this is to facilitate migration to bmesh.
next step is to merge this this to the bmesh branch. this was done in the 2.5
branch to prevent too great a divergance.
also, made makesdna/makesrna work on cygwin/msvc2008/scons.
since the loop that works around t->data being freed can sometimes shuffle strips that are not being transformed (eg, when extending or with locked strips)
* Added a PanelType and HeaderType for registering panels
and headers in regions. When the region draws, it will
then automatically draw the ones that were registerd with
poll and draw callbacks.
Used for text header, properties and object buttons now.
* Added support for soft/hard range in the buttons code. Currently
it works by only allowing to drag or click increment in the soft
range, but typing a number value allows to go outside it.
If the number is outside the soft range, the range will be extended,
rounded to values like:
.., 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0, 50.0, ..
- use select as a suffix eg UV_OT_loop_select -> UV_OT_select_loop
- Each select all operator was using slightly different wording...
select_all, deselect_all, de_select_all, select_de_select_all -> select_all_toggle
- selection -> select
- POSE_OT_select_connected -> POSE_OT_select_linked to match other operators
- NODE_OT_delete_selection -> NODE_OT_delete since its not used in other operators
- ANIM_OT_previewrange_define -> ANIM_OT_previewrange_set to match other operators
- NODE_OT_fit_all -> NODE_OT_view_all to match other operators
- View2D_OT_* -> VIEW2D_OT_* to match VIEW3D
- View2D_OT_view_downscroll -> VIEW2D_OT_scroll_down more logical
- removed MARKER_OT_mouseselect_extend and made extend a boolean property of MARKER_OT_mouseselect
- MARKER_OT_mouseselect -> MARKER_OT_select
- GROUP_OT_group_remove -> GROUP_OT_objects_remove more logical since its removing objects from groups
- MESH_OT_removedoublesflag -> MESH_OT_remove_doubles
- redundant words MESH_OT_split_mesh -> MESH_OT_split, OBJECT_OT_object_delete -> OBJECT_OT_delete
renamed selection operator properties
extend_select -> extend
column_select -> column
select_children_only -> children_only
... Since these are all in the context of selection operators there is no need for the extra 'select' in the property name.
Updated docs
http://www.graphicall.org/ftp/ideasman42/html/bpyoperator-module.html
* text header needs a static char* so text is not rendered as gibberish. (until labels own their own strings)
* epy_doc_gen.py - write out a graphviz representation of the data api.
this can be brought back as a new space if someone decides to
work on it.
This also fixes remaining issues with the outliner tree open
and close buttons not working sometimes.
This setting means that instead of blindly replacing the existing values, the generator modifier will instead apply its effects on top of any existing modifiers (and/or curve data).
Thus, it is now possible to apply effects such sin/cos-based oscillations on top of keyframed motion.
* Screen level regions created for menus are now a separate
CTX_wm_menu in the context, so they don't interfere with
existing regions.
* Fix context in popup menus to always come from the area
and region the popup was opened from.
* Removed some unused context stuff: tasks and reports.
The places that were using context reports were using it
wrong anyway.
* Fix F6 closing immediately after editing a button, by
making uiBlockSetFlag not clear existing flags anymore.
* Don't use ":" in boolean X/Y/Z buttons.
* Test with constructing RNA paths from pointer + property, based on
a callback per struct. For animato we'll need to be able to do this,
for keyframing from buttons, unless we can somehow derive the paths
from the interface code, which seems like an unnecessary burden.
However constructing such paths is not always quick, and we need a
fast way to find out if a property is animated for drawing buttons,
so this may not be the best solution.
See rna_mesh.c for some callbacks created as a test.
* Added BLI_sprintfN to mallocN a new string using printf style
formatting.
WIP commit for new system to draw widgets and use themes or styles.
Not really interesting stuff to see in code now, the current
structure will change quite a lot, this to make it hook up well
to the existing system.
What works quite well is a new full opengl vector method to draw
scalable and pixel-aligned anti-aliased buttons.

* Fix for F6 redo and similar popups closing when moving
mouse outside of the popup while interacting with buttons.
* Simplify F6 redo popup code by using generated layout.
TEX and CMP to follow.
Also, renumbered the texture nodes because when I first wrote them I thought
they could share ID numbers with the SH and CMP nodes. D'oh!
