This commit is just meant to give the new GUI framework a concrete shape.
There is no usefulness in newly introduced elements at the moment.
Freestyle options in render layers now include a pull-down menu named Control
Mode that allows you to choose either the Python Scripting or Parameter Editor
mode. The Python Scripting mode is the conventional way of controlling
Freestyle by directly using style modules written in Python. The Parameter
Editor is a new control mode that is intended to be used by everyone without
relying on Python programming.
In the Parameter Editor mode, you can specify multiple line sets for each
render layer. A line set defines feature edge selection criteria, as
well as a line style for drawing the selected feature edges using specific
line stylization parameters. Line style is a new datablock type, meaning
that a line style can be shared by multiple line sets (possibly those in
different render layers in different scenes).
Much more additions are anticipated in subsequent commits to implement UI
controls for specifying feature edge selection criteria and line stylization
parameters.
This started off doing pointcache debugging but it's also very useful for users too.
Previously it was very hard to see the state of the system when you're working caches
such as physics point cache - is it baked? which frames are cached? is it out of date?
Now, for better feedback, cached frames are drawn for the active object at the bottom
of the timeline - a semitransparent area shows the entire cache extents, and more
solid blocks on top show the frames that are cached. Darker versions indicate it's
using a disk cache.
It can be disabled in general in the timeline View -> Caches menu, or by each individual
system that can be shown.
There's still a bit to do on this, behaviour needs to be clarified still eg. deciding what
shows when it's out of date, or when it's been played back but not cached, etc. etc.
Part of this is due to a lack of definition in the point cache system itself, so we should
try and clean up/clarify this behaviour and what it means to users, at the same time.
Also would be interested in extending this to other caches such as fluid cache,
sequencer memory cache etc. in the future, too.
Minipatch to add the Origin button in the Toolshelf in the Transform section.
I missed this because
1) it was called "center" in 2.4 and it's difficult to find just searching if you don't know it's "origin"
2) it was in the the object » transform menu, not very practical to use often
Discussed with Gensher, Campbell and Matt before committing :)
Save and Restore master from disk.
When the "clear on exit" option is off, write a data file (blender_master.data) in the master's path on exit and reads it back on load.
Note: Jobs and Slaves lists are restored, but not balancer settings (problem with the pickle module).
Add Convert operator and button (missing in 2.5)
Fix stroke selection (uneeded separate operator and missing redraw)
Map sketch operators to LEFTMOUSE and RIGHTMOUSE instead of SELECTMOUSE AND ACTIONMOUSE (more in line with other sketching operators, might work better with swapped mouse buttons)
- obstacle culling for correct simulation in 3d
- flag for steering actuator termination on reaching target
- path recalculation period
- advance by waypoints (for path following)
- release/scripts/ui/space_userpref.py
added the change to add a 'warning' field to bl_addon_info
warning icons are used to show 'broken' scripts or warnings
asked permission to campbell and matt in blendercoders to apply this
- source/blender/python/doc/sphinx_doc_gen.py:
small fix in the url
path -> filepath (for rna and operators, as agreed on with elubie)
path -> data_path (for windowmanager context functions, this was alredy used in many places)
a bit arbitrary but with most cases where solidify is used in durian we get UV texture stretching since there is no way to access the newly created size faces this gives us a way to switch out the material on the rim.
- bpy.context wasnt being created from the python bpy.types.Context type defined in bpy_types.py (bpy.context.copy() failed for eg.)
- bpy.context.copy() was returning C defined methods like FloatProperty(), which are not useful in this case, removed.
- added relative option to saving external multires data
- renamed multires external functiosn to have save / pack as suffix.
- added TODO's for file select operators that should support relative paths but dont.
- also disable openmp on linux cross compile, mingw currently isnt linking -lgomp
* Now it displays the last report from the global list, not just from operators
* Rather than disappearing when a new operator is run, it stays until it times
out or a new report is added
* Fun animated transitions ;)

Now need to investigate report usage with popups. Ideally we can have most
reports non-blocking, so they're less intrusive, only popping up for dire errors.
Problem is many things in Blender right now are marked as RPT_ERROR
when probably RPT_WARNING is more appropriate. Should probably keep
RPT_ERROR for things that demand immediate attention.
clear properties operator
- now it's not part of the copy properties anymore (Matt's suggestion).
If anyone want to change the menu, please help yourself (renaming, putting in it's own submenu, making it invisible when mode is not Game ..)
