- Theme color for the brush popup was not correctly coded. Now it follows menu item
style correctly, which also allows all the themes we have to give readable text.
- RMB cancel also added for slider buttons and the color picker.
In text editor, the CTRL+F find now opens property region (or keeps it) and
activates the search button for input.
That's already nice! But next step should be to do a search on exit of
the button (or while typing). That's stuff I need Campbell to help with though.
Notes:
- Probably Py api for property buttons could get an "operator=" arg?
- The warning menu "not found" should go away
- I also suggest to make "wrap" search default for new editors
* Remove already commented "use_radiosity" flag from RNA.
* Remove some commented exceptions for old 2.4x 3D View preview region.
* Remove empty and commented function declarations from 2.4x UI times
Issue is that the real default context is NULL, however, in python and RNA, this value can't be used easily. So we use a specific string instead ("*"), defined as BLF_I18NCONTEXT_DEFAULT_BPYRNA.
From now on, all bpy/rna code should only use the BLF_I18NCONTEXT_DEFAULT_BPYRNA value, while all "usual" C code should use the BLF_I18NCONTEXT_DEFAULT value (BLF_pgettext is still able to "understand" both, anyway).
Also added BLF_is_default_context helper func, so that we can keep that check in a single place!
Finally, we should no need anymore to understand the void string "" as default context too - two values for a same thing are more than enough!
The old 2.5 code was just drawing a blended rect over buttons, which looks bad
in cases the backdrop is undefined.
Now widget drawing code just draws everything half transparent. Much nicer!
Time for textured backdrops? ;)
PyNodes opens up the node system in Blender to scripters and adds a number of UI-level improvements.
=== Dynamic node type registration ===
Node types can now be added at runtime, using the RNA registration mechanism from python. This enables addons such as render engines to create a complete user interface with nodes.
Examples of how such nodes can be defined can be found in my personal wiki docs atm [1] and as a script template in release/scripts/templates_py/custom_nodes.py [2].
=== Node group improvements ===
Each node editor now has a tree history of edited node groups, which allows opening and editing nested node groups. The node editor also supports pinning now, so that different spaces can be used to edit different node groups simultaneously. For more ramblings and rationale see (really old) blog post on code.blender.org [3].
The interface of node groups has been overhauled. Sockets of a node group are no longer displayed in columns on either side, but instead special input/output nodes are used to mirror group sockets inside a node tree. This solves the problem of long node lines in groups and allows more adaptable node layout. Internal sockets can be exposed from a group by either connecting to the extension sockets in input/output nodes (shown as empty circle) or by adding sockets from the node property bar in the "Interface" panel. Further details such as the socket name can also be changed there.

Curves widget error: after deleting a point, and click to add a new point, on dragging
it the point flipped up 20 pixels. Was caused by changed layout and region view matrix.
Solved by storing actual mousecoords instead of mapped ones.
Zooming in on images in Image window now shows pixels again (was filtered).
Now the glaDrawPixelsTex() and glaDrawPixelsAuto() have an argument to
define if images should zoom in with linear filter, or draw pixels.

Finally, I've figured out a way to get the ID Selector Template to only show the
icon for the type of ID block (i.e. the intended design), instead of icon+text.
This improves the layout a bit, as previously the type selector and ID-block
pointer and label would all be the same sizes (roughly 1/3rd of the overall
width each), which meant that there wasn't much room left to actually see which
datablock had been selected.
Additionally, I've fixed a few more layout types which still didn't correctly
propagate the red-alert flags.
I've added a separate camera unit type. It's a bit strange to have an exception for
this but it ensures units are shown in familiar millimeters and it also ensures
backwards compatibility.
This patch allows Blender to display i18n monospace font in the text
editor and the Python interactive console. Wide characters that occupy
multiple columns such as CJK characters can be displayed correctly.
Furthermore, wrapping, selection, suggestion, cursor drawing, and
syntax highlighting should work.
Also fixes a bug [#34543]: In Text Editor false color in comment on cyrillic
To estimate how many columns each character occupies, this patch uses
wcwidth.c written by Markus Kuhn and distributed under MIT-style license:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/wcwidth.c
wcwidth.c is stored in extern/wcwidth and used as a static library.
This patch adds new API to blenfont, blenlib and blenkernel:
BLF_get_unifont_mono()
BLF_free_unifont_mono()
BLF_draw_mono()
BLI_wcwidth()
BLI_wcswidth()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width_safe()
txt_utf8_offset_to_column()
txt_utf8_column_to_offset()

- storage.c: Simplify BLI_dir_contents and make it and its internal subsidiary routines reentrant
- Moved common code for disposal of a struct direntry to new routine BLI_free_filelist in storage.c, and put calls to it in interface_icons.c and filelist.c
- Took out inclusion of BLI_fileops_types.h from BLI_fileops.h and put it explicitly into .c files that need it (which turned out to be only 7 of the 35 files that were including the former)
Issue was caused by the way how pattern sampling happens in case of
anchored display: track offset is applying on search buffer which
means offset is rounding to an integer. Fractional pat of offset was
completely ignoring which lead to jumps in pattern buffer.
This was only a visualization issue in track preview widget.
Alt+Mouse Wheel events depended on the button under the mouse being active, else it would change the current frame.
Button re-activation wasn't 100% reliable since it depends on fake mousemove events.
Now keep button active when its executed if the mouse stays over it.
