* Added a 'rotOrder' parameter for constraint evaluation objects and constraint targets, which describes the rotation mode used for the matrices there.
Todos:
* Constraint targets default to using XYZ only for now. This will need be be addressed eventually.
* Copy Rotation constraint currently cannot use the new rotation order code for the target matrix. What's surprising is that even though it's just using XYZ as the old code did, it doesn't work, and yet everything else works nicely. Silly constraint! (it is almost impossible to improve this constraint further without breaking a rig out there)
This commit is the start of an implementation of (euler) rotation orders for Bones (later to be extended to Objects too).
Technical details and references can be found at:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Aligorith/EulerRotationOrder
In short, I've added a new set of Euler conversion functions (EulO... and ...EulO), coexisting with the old functions for now, which can handle different rotation orders.
Changes have only been made to the basic evaluation code. However, the following places will still need modifications:
* Transform code - needs to be made to use functions which take rotation order into account instead of using XYZ only
* Rotation constraints - same story
* Other rotation editing tools for armatures also need a check up, since there might have been some missing code when I ported eulers earlier
- Baked point caches for particles, cloth and softbody can now be edited in particle mode.
* This overwrites the old cloth/sb cache editmode editing.
* The type of editable system is chosen from a menu.
* For particles the current particle system and it's current cache are used.
- Currently this only works for caches that are in memory, but some automatic conversion from disk to memory and back can be implemented later.
- All tools from hair editing can't be applied to point caches and are hidden in the tool panel and specials menu. Some functionality like subdividing paths can be later implemented in a slightly different way from how it works for hair.
- Code is not yet optimized for speed, so editing might be slow sometimes.
Known issues:
- Cloth doesn't update properly while in particle mode, due to the way cloth modifier currently works. Daniel can you check on this?
- As "particle mode" is not only for particles any more some other name would be in place?
- Better icons are needed for the path, point, and tip-modes as the current icons from mesh edit mode are quite misleading.
- Direct editing of point velocities is not yet implemented, but will be in the future.
Other changes:
- Hair editing doesn't require a "make editable" button press any more.
- Multiple caches in single particle system disables changing emission properties.
- Unified ui code for all point cache panels.
* Defined in buttons_particle.py and imported for cloth, smoke & softbody.
- Proper disabling of properties in ui after baking point caches. (Daniel could you please make needed disable code for smoke panels as their functionality is not familiar to me.)
- Hair weight brush has been removed. Once hair dynamics is re-implemented I'll code a more useable alternative to the functionality.
Bug fixes:
- Unlinking particle settings crashed.
- Deleting the active object with particles in the scene crashed.
- Softbody didn't write point caches correctly on save.
* Shuffled some code around, and renamed some functions used for getting context info
- Split UI-buttons into a separate file from stroke-drawing code
- Removed some obsolete code (i.e. old paint code that used to be in _edit, but which has been moved to _paint).
* Made drawing in 3D-View default to using the active object as the owner of the Grease Pencil data. For now, the drawing code will therefore only show the GP data for the active object only. More work to come on this.
* Fixed freeing code for Objects/Scenes with GP data.
* Wrapped Grease Pencil datatypes in RNA.
* Hooked up Grease Pencil access in RNA (i.e. via Main, ID, and Scene)
TODO:
Updates to properties are currently lacking property-update calls, since there's no good notifier for this.
This commit is the start of the new Grease Pencil implementation. I've just ported the old code to make it work with operators, and to store its data in Grease-Pencil datablocks.
However, this is currently still really buggy, with only the barebones of the drawing/creation tools restored (no UI panels, no options). To use (not recommended), use D+S+move_mouse (and click when finished) for now. There are some rather serious event handling errors going on here...
Also, made the Outliner's horizontal scrollbar work better for keymaps view. It's still using an approximation of the width, but at least you can scroll now.

This also adds the option to duplicate a particle system with an object.
--- description from the patch submission.
This patch includes my latest additions to the Python API developed for my Degree's Project.
It includes:
- Particle
- Vertex group dictionary in doc (to use with setvertexgroup/getvertexgroup)
- Particle.New return psys (not specified in doc)
- Draw As variable and dict
- Strand render toggle
- Object
- psys variable in duplicate
- Material
- Strand render variables
- Texture
- Use colorbands
- Lamp
- Spot buffer type selection
The 'Show Sliders' option for DopeSheet and Graph Editors now works again. When this option is enabled (it is disabled by default), a slider (or combobox) is shown beside the mute/lock toggles for F-Curves. Editing the slider will result in a new keyframe being added on the current frame.
So, for all the (ex)-Maya animators out there, you can now animate in a channelbox-like way. :)
Also in this commit:
* Fixed some warnings in modifier.c from previous commits there
* Fixed some refresh problems with DopeSheet channel list (which were only obvious after adding back the sliders)
* Removed the old/unrestored and nasty slider code used in the past by the Action Editor only.
Previously the only way to detect if the mouse moved over a different object was to enable true-level-triggering and have a python script detect the change.
When the Pulse option is set, focusing on a different object pulses true.
Python attribute is focusSensor.usePulseFocus.
This is similar to the collision sensors pulse option where changes in the set of collision objects generates an event too.
Found this functionality missing when trying to make a logic demo that used mouse-over with overlapping objects.
This solves one of the last remaining hurdles for
volume rendering. Previously it always used ray
tracing to shade other objects inside or behind the
volume. This meant that said objects would look
aliased, unless you used Full OSA on the volume
(which is slow!). As well as this, it meant that you didn't
get a good alpha channel out of the volume to use for
compositing, similar to ray refracting materials.
This commit enables z transparency for volume
materials. Although it can be potentially less
physically correct, in most situations there's no
difference, and you get the benefit of nice sampling for
other objects and an alpha channel for compositing too.
* Made object mode an enum, shows better in the debugger
* Added a toggle mode to the set object mode operator
* Toggling a mode on and off goes back to the previous mode, not just object mode
* Changed the vertex mode and weight mode shortcuts to call the toggle mode operator
Made Hook Modifier be able to use bone targets. However, I haven't been able to verify that everything will work perfectly, since just creating a new Hook Modifier and assigning targets doesn't set hmd->indexar correctly.
* Popup menus now remember the last clicked item again.
* Modifier and File Format menus are now organized in multiple
columns with categories.
* Hook, explode, uv project modifiers have all their buttons
again with the relevant operators implemented.
* Modifiers that can't be added by the user, or don't work on
curves for example, are not in the menu anymore.
* Fix search menu overlapping buttons when near the bottom of
the screen.
* Fix uv layers search menu not working in some modifiers.
* Cleanup popup menu code a bit, layout engine is used in more
cases now instead of ugly position calculation code.
* Converted vertex paint to use the new stroke system. Now supports the same smooth stroke and stroke spacing as sculpt mode.
* Refactored the paint cursor a bit, just sculpt for now but other modes soon.
* A couple warning fixes
* cache for low res (deactivating high res for now)
* new way of view3d rendering of smoke (no longer 3 axes) -using 3dtexture now (introduced into gpu/intern)
* introducing LZO and LZMA libs into extern (makefiles missing for now)
* reducing memory usage after simulating for the frame ended (freeing temporary buffers)
* splitting smoke into 2 modifier for the cache-sake (it cannot handle more than 1 cache on the same modifier-index)
* no color on gui anymore
* fixing non-power-of-2 resolutions (hopefully)
* fixing select-deselect of domain drawing bug
* fixing drawobject.c coding style (making Ton happy) ;-)
HINT #1: If scons doesn't work -> cmakefiles are up-to-date, couldn't test scons (but i tried to mantain them, too)
CODERS HINT #1: we really need a way to disable adding all modifiers through "Add Modifiers" dropdown!
WARNING #1: before applying this commit, deactivate your SMOKE DOMAIN in your old files and save them then. You can open them then savely after that.
WARNING #2: File and cache format of smoke can be changed, this is not final!
Implementation:
* NC_SCENE or NC_OBJECT cause scene->stats to be cleared.
* NC_INFO is sent to tag info headers for redraw.
* In UI scene.statistics() creates scene->stats if it is
NULLd, and then returns the string.
* Added Shading and Performance panels in the scene buttons,
containing the options previously in the 2.4x game menu.
* Added show framerate/debug/physics/warnings back in game menu.
* Moved these settings from G.fileflags to scene GameData.
* Enabled Display Lists by default.
* Some other small game scene button tweaks.
* Added UI for brush stroke. Contains for now spacing and smooth stroke
* Removed Sculpt UI for airbrush -- doesn't do anything in sculpt mode
* Improved smooth stroke by using float instead of int precision, so smooth stroke is even smoother now
* Move sound_init to make sure it gets called everytime user
preferences is reloaded.
* Merged sound_reinit and sound_init. One used user preferences
while the other did not, don't see the point of this, so just
made it always use user preferences now.
* Timeline header audio sync option now controls scene flag
rather than timeline flag. Since it uses the same playback
operator now, there is no distinction anymore.
* Added boolean property sync to animation play operator, to sync
with audio or not. Uses scene setting if property is not set.
* Playback stop button in info header now calls operator, so sounds
stop playing too.
to show properties.
* One problem is that we currently have 3 different kinds of
property layouts, single column, two column, and single column
with text inside button, probably best to reduce this..
* Last operator panel now shows operator name in the header.
* Fix extrude operator to not include transform properties
anymore, since they are already there now due to macro system.
* Added a new Paint type in scene DNA. This is now the base struct for Sculpt.
* The Paint type contains a list of Brushes, you can add or remove these much like material and texture slots.
* Modified the UI for the new Paint type, now shows the list of brushes active for this mode
* Added a New Brush operator, shows in the UI as a list of brush tool types to add
* Made the sculpt tool property UI smaller and not expanded, expectation is that we will have a number of preset brushes that will cover the basic sculpt brush types
TODO:
* Vertex paint, weight paint, texture paint need to be converted to this system next
* Add brush presets to the default blend
* data reorganisation - uses own values now instead of reusing surface material properties (i.e. an individual density value, rather than reusing alpha) Files saved with the old system won't load up the same after this.
* improved defaults and ui
* Pose mode was already object-localized, but moved the flag from object->flag to object->mode, with all the other modes.
* Updated object mode RNA
* Commented out some dubious use of base->flag with the posemode flag. So far as I could see the value was only being set, not read, so a hopefully safe change.
* Made texture paint object-localized too.
Note for Brecht: gpu_draw.c had three uses of G_TEXTUREPAINT that I was not able to cleanly fix, so commented out for now. Can you take a look and see what should be done here?
* Weightpaint is now object-local like sculpt and vertexpaint.
* Fixed a bug spotted by DingTo, going from editmode to sculptmode didn't fully leave editmode
* Transparency is now it's own panel, with a boolean toggle
+ enum for z/ray transparency (following mockup made by
William). Also had to change DNA flags for this.
* Disabled radiosity a bit more in render engine, it still had
some effects like auto autosmooth.
* Make some sliders in material buttons percentages in RNA.
* Some other small tweaks in layout and naming.
* Made sculpt mode local to object.
* This also fixes loading files from 2.4x saved in sculptmode
Touched a lot of things here, let me know if anything breaks
TODO:
* The other paint modes should be converted as well
Implementation Note:
* Moved the scene copy/unlink code back into blenkernel, with
the exception of the copy single user stuff which is still in
object_edit.c.
* Uses SCREENDELETE notifier like SCREENBROWSE, seems only clean
way to do this now.
* Fixed one of the items from Brecht's TODO mail. Exiting edit mode now restores any paint mode you might have been in, rather than going to object mode.
