* #19727: Noise modifier does nothing with size 1.0
When the 'Size' and 'Phase' parameters were both 1.0 exactly, and evaltime was an integer (as is the case when doing animation evaluation but not for Graph Editor drawing), the noise calculation function was bailing out. Now, the 'z' component supplied to this function is a decimal value (hardcoded to 0.1 after experimentation) to try and avoid this situation.
* Graph Editor 'Bake' operator was using wrong poll callback, making it useless when trying to use it on a F-Curve that only has modifiers on it (i.e. the main use case of the operator!)
Blended shape keys can now be displayed & edited in edit mode. This
is much like showing an armature modifier in edit mode, and shape keys
now are a applied as a virtual modifier (for mesh & lattice only, curve
doesn't fit in the stack well due to tilt).
The main thing missing still is being able to switch between the active
shape key in edit mode, that's more complicated.. but the weights of
other shapes can be edited while in edit mode.
One thing to be careful about is that this does automatic crazyspace
correction, which means that if you edit a shape key with a low value,
the actual vertices will be moved to correct for that and actually move
a (potentially much) longer distance.
Also includes some UI tweaks, mainly placing some buttons horizontally
since the vertical list was getting too long.
Internal change to not apply the shape keys to the Mesh vertex coordinates,
but rather use it as part of the derivedmesh/displist evaluation. This only
has one practical advantage right now, which is that you can now make a
linked duplicate and pin it's shape key to a different shape than the first
object.
Further, this makes shape keys correctly fit into the modifier stack design,
which will help implement some other features later. Also it means the mesh
vertex coordinates are now really the orco's.
* RNA Path fixing when renaming data now checks if a path in question cannot be resolved before trying to fix it. This should reduce the number of misindentified cases I hope.
* Silenced compiler warnings for EdgeSlide stuff that mingw was making about unused variables.
* Transform code was not properly fixed to work with the new way that axis-angle data was stored
* The order of the args for the conversion function when switching rotation representations was wrong, causing problems when switching from quaternion to axis angle (i.e. these occurred for newly created bones).
Auto save is now working again in 2.5. It will also remember now what
the location of the original file was when recovering it, so that
library links still work and saving the restored file does not save to
the temp directory. There is also a new Recover Auto Save operator
which will open the filebrowser in the temp directory and show the
auto saved .blends.
Implemenation Notes:
* Timer storage was moved from window to windowmanager, so we can have
windowmanager level timers too now, doesn't make sense to have
autosave timer attached to a particular window.
* FileGlobal now has a filename field storing where the file was saved.
Note that this is only used when loading a file through the recover
operators, regular file read doesn't use it, so copying the quit.blend
manually over the original file will still work as expected.
* Jobs timer no longer uses operator now, this seems more like an
internal thing, changing keymaps should not make it possible to break
the jobs manager.
* Autosave is postponed by 10 seconds when a modal operator is running,
e.g. transform or file browsing.
* Moved setting G.sce in setup_app_data before depsgraph updates, these
can use the filename for pointcaches.
* Now the old/new names get tagged with [" "] before the search and replace operation, which should alleviate problems with searching for 'bone' and ending up with all instances of 'boney' 'boney.r' etc. also getting renamed.
* Cleaned up some compiler warnings, and removed an unused function from an earlier attempt at this work.
RNA Paths used in F-Curve, Drivers, etc. now get renamed when some data that they use gets renamed. This only works when things like Bones, Constraints, Shape Keys, and Modifiers get renamed, but other cases can get added easily.
The code here only performs simple string replacements, so there is the potential for problems when several sets of data with the same names are present. For example, if there are multiple armatures with bones that have the same names, renaming a bone on one armature (with a bone on another armature having the same name) will break all the drivers on the other one, even though they aren't really connected. However, I don't expect the aforementioned scenario to really be a problem in most production scenarios.
Also:
* UI now takes ID self check flag into account so that e.g. it
doesn't offer to the make object it's own parent.
* Mesh loop cuts number of cuts had wrong limits.
* Don't use mesh_get_derived_final in modifier stack, but
ob->derivedFinal instead. Avoids crashes on dependency loops,
and in case there is no loop it should have been created.
- invalid pointer was used for getting the sequencer length crashing blender or setting the length to negative values.
- printf_strip(seq) for debugging sequence strip locations
- Spelling: Cheet Sheet -> Cheat Sheet
* Changing to the ShapeKey editor now automatically enables the value sliders
* Filtering code for ShapeKey editor can now do AnimData block filtering too (internal details...)
* Silenced console warnings when inserting keyframes on F-Curves with no keyframes already (for Animation Editor sliders)
* Made the update code for keyframe transforms send more general depsgraph updates. Unfortuately, this still doesn't resolve the update problems with shapekeys
Special priority request from Durian team to get this sub-editor of the DopeSheet Editor restored. Originally I was kindof planning to drop it, but obviously it still has a role!
It now supports all the modern features that the DopeSheet supports, complete with selection, muting, locking, DopeSheet summary, and all the other tools that you know and love from the other views.
Also, this no longer uses the old hacky sliders that 2.4x used (instead it uses RNA-based ones), so should function just the same as other DopeSheet views).
it would show you the last selected shape key until doing
another operation. This is confusing, and the Pin button allows
you to do the same kind of shape browsing.
Since the deep shadow buffer summer of code project is not actively under
development anymore, I decided to build my own DSM implementation from
scratch, based on reusing as much existing shadow buffer code as possible.
It's not very advanced, but implements the basic algorithm. Just enough so
we can do shading tests with it, optimizations and other improvements can
be done later.
Supported:
* Classical shadow buffer options: filter, soft, bias, ..
* Multiple sample buffers, merged into one.
* Halfway trick to support lower bias.
* Compression with user defined threshold.
* Non-textured alpha transparency, using Casting Alpha value.
* Strand render.
Not Supported:
* Tiling disk cache, so can use a lot of memory.
* Per part rendering for lower memory usage during creation.
* Colored shadow.
* Textured color/alpha shadow.
* Mipmaps for faster filtering.
* Volume shadows.
Usage Hints:
* Use sample buffers + smaller size rather than large size.
* For example 512 size x 9 sample buffers instead of 2048 x 1.
* Compression threshold 0.05 works, but is on the conservative side.
- removed custom invoke function, use generic names (was misleading since conversion is done on selection, not just active).
- made convert mesh to curve use the 'keep_original' option.
* #19583: Keying Sets list issues
Deleting a Keying Set (or a Keying Set Path) set the active index to 0, but that would mean that the first item would be selected but not visible.
* #19590: Keyframing properties of a modifier with more than one of it's type the property will highlight in all
- Modifiers now always have a unique name, so renaming a modifier should check that the name is unique. Most of the files changed in this commit were just to make sure that modifiers got unique names when they were created
- Modifiers path getter was wrapped a bit wrong (missing the "s around the name)
* Constraints Bugs
- Constraints renaming now also makes sure the names stay unique
- Fixed (or attempted to fix) compiler warnings about some enum declaration for distance constraint
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
