Bugfixes:
* The speed controller changes now dynamically the IPO-curve range to
it's needs. (Frame matching and negative velocities didn't work...
Obviously nobody tried ;-)
* Fixed some redraw bugs. The IPO window is correctly updated if one pushes
the IPO Frame locking button.
* UV and Radiosity passes are now visible in Outliner (like for other passes)
* Changed tooltip of overwrite material to:
"Name of Material to use as Materials instead"
* Also, fixed Reflection and Refraction passes in the Outliner - flags were
mixed up, so turning on Reflection turned on Refraction and vica-versa.
* Added a new top-level add menu category for compositing nodes: Distort
It currently contains Translate, Rotate, Scale, Flip, Displace and Map UV
Also did some cleaning up of the ordering of add node menu items to be a
bit better organised.
-Added missing access to Node win theme (thanks Mickaël Le-bihan for pointing) and also options group and group_active.
-Added Node space to Window.Types dict.
-Tiny update to the save theme script version numbers (keeping 2.42 for now to avoid popups, but should change to 2.43 right before release).
BTW: Happy New Year everyone :).
Adding missing define for displace node (Matt can change the number when he gets back, this is just to fix compilation)
Removing "#pragma mark" from node.c. IIRC, that's XCode leaving crap around, so be sure to remove them when you commit (it outputs warnings on other compilers).
* Displace Node
Displaces an input image's pixels based on an input vector mask. This can be
useful for a lot of things, like hot air distortion, quick-and-dirty compo
refraction, compositing live footage behind refracting objects, and more!
The amount of displacement in the X and Y directions is determined by:
* The value of the mask's channels
- (red) channel 1's value determines displacement along the positive or
negative X axis
- (green) channel 2's value determines displacement along the positive or
negative Y axis
If both the channel's values are equal (i.e. a greyscale image) the input
image will be displaced equally in both X and Y directions, also according to:
* The X scale and Y scale buttons
- These act as multipliers to increase or decrease the strength of the
displacement along their respective axes. They need to be set to non-zero
values for the node to have any effect.
Because of this, you can use the displace node in two ways, with a greyscale
mask(easy to paint, or take from a procedural texture), or with a vector
channel or RGB image, such as a normal pass, which will displace the pixels
based on the normal direction.

* added .iconTheme variable
* bugfix. drawType was not being saved because Py_BuildValue and __members__ was missing an "s"
* added Blender.Get('icondir')
This appears to have been caused by the excessive amount of memory that multires was eating up every time an edit operation pushed a new undo copy. Added a hack for multires that allows it to use the same multires data for multiple undo copies until the user actually changes levels (which is when multires data is actually updated.)
if play and record are enabled at the same time you can record the flight path.
adds a keyframe for every frame, dosnt support the Keying options in the user prefs.
If no rotation is being done on the camera, no rot keys are applied and same for location.
Fix for bug #5248, sculpt - mirrored tiled texture odd results
Changed the algorithm used for projecting the brush texture onto the model. The old algorithm was never implemented properly, causing increasingly
wonky distortions of the brush as it got farther away from parallel to the screen. The new system uses the screen coords of vertices, the obvious
advantage being that 2D screen coords can be mapped quite easily to 2D texture coords. The main disadvantage of this method is that there are still
distortions in the brush as the surface beneath it becomes less parallel the screen. These distortions, however, are not as bad as the old ones
because they are predictable from the user's perspective. (It's analogous to a movie being projected onto a sphere; if the viewer is in front of the
sphere there is no apparent distortion, but from the side the movie appears stretched and distorted.)
This may still be worth revisiting after the release.
This patch allows icon files (.png) to be loaded into Blender dynamically,
without having to go through the tedious and technical process of compiling
them in. It also makes them part of the theme settings so they can be
attached as part of a theme and saved in the default .B.blend.
Icon files should be stored in $HOME/.blender/icons/ . This really sucks on
Mac since it's hidden in the finder, but it's a separate issue. We need a
better system of finding things like this, python scripts etc, perhaps a
nice wrapped function something like BLI_getresourcedir(), then it's easy to
do platform specific stuff there, like using ~/Library/Application Data on Mac.

Fixed the bug where it would snap to a selected (moving) vertex.
Fixed a bug with Snap Closest with only one vertex selected.
=== Internals: EditMesh Mods ===
Modify and documented findnearestvert.
Added a new parameter to restrict the search to selected or unselected vert instead of just adding a bias to them (as previously). Currently, the "strict" method bypasses the openGL optimisation, people with more knowledge about that should feel invited to fix it.
=== Internals: EditMesh Tools ===
Adding missing newline at the end.
scn.objects.selected = [] # deselect all
scn.objects.selected = scn.objects # select all
scn.objects.context = [ob1, ob2...]
Added epydoc examples and updates importer scripts to use this de-select-all method.
continual script stuff, minor stuff..
fix for bad return in group.
Added back group.objects.append/remove but print deprectaed warning. also some epydoc changes.
Fix for bug [ #5522 ] inaccurate rotation
Entering very high/low values using numeric input in a rotation (+/- 360000 and more/less) resulted in incorrect rotations. Fixed by clamping the actual rotation between -180 and 180 before converting to radians (just to be clear, the clamping already happened and is inevitable, now, it just happens earlier).
After all these years, it is now possible to (re)center armatures like you
can do with meshes and curves.
At the moment, you can only access this functionality from the menus
(Spacebar->Transform) as the armature button panels are pretty
crowded.
