- removed static vars _last_seq, last_imagename and last_sounddir, replacing them with with vars in the "Editing" struct. didnt manage to get the active sequence to load so currently thats lost when loading.
- removed flag SEQ_ACTIVE
- Added operators cut, mute, unmute, deselect_all, select_invert, select, select_more, select_less, select_pick_linked, select_linked and borderselect.
View3D has been split now in a local part (RegionView3D) and a
per-area part (old View3D). Currently local is:
- view transform
- camera zoom/offset
- gpencil (todo)
- custom clipping planes
Rest is in Area still, like active camera, draw type, layers,
localview, custom centers, around-settings, transform widget,
gridlines, and so on (mostly stuff as available in header).
To see it work; also added new feature for region split,
press SHIFT+ALT+CTRL+S for four-split.
The idea is to make a preset 4-split, configured to stick
to top/right/front views for three views.
Another cool idea to explore is to then box-clip all drawing
based on these 3 views.
Note about the code:
- currently view3d still stores some depricated settings, to
convert from older files. Not all settings are copied over
though, like custom clip planes or the 'lock view to object'.
- since some view3d ops are now on area level, the operators
for it should keep track of that.
Bugfix in transform: quat initialize in operator-invoke missed
one zero.
Als brought back GE to compile for missing Ipos and channels.
* Removed nAction struct. We'll be using good ol' bAction structs again, but putting new data in a different list. Apart from that, the data is similar enough to do so.
* Rearranged code in DNA_action_types.h while renaming the structs to avoid confusion over what is currently in use...
* Added freeing and AnimData execution loops for many other ID-types too. (NOTE: I've added AnimData in NodeTree struct too, but it's not clear to me where the relevant data-management calls should go in Nodes code).
* File writing code should now only write the new data to files
- Added shift+d duplicate for object and editmode mesh.
Note it uses WM_operator_name_call(), which is fine now,
but in future might put again 2 undo's and operators on
the stack.
Will have to spend some time on how Macros will work!
- added itterator CTX_selected_editable_objects()
(named it first "edible" but that was too funny!)
Also cleaned object_edit.c to use this correctly.
- added CTX_wm_view3d(), especially for hybrid tools
that *can* use view3d, but don't have to.
- moved debug -d print for operators to the real invoke call
Cleanup warnings from Joshua's commit (mostly unused variables,
but also used functions that were not prototyped).
Two bugfixes; passing on &ob->adt instead of ob->adt
But; the DNA system is now messed up, with two structs using
the same ID (nAction and bAction), that goes horrible wrong!
* Made AnimData blocks be stored as pointer instead of directly in the ID-datablock, so that fewer files will need to be recompiled everytime some animation settings change.
* Tried to fix some of the compiler errors that pop up in Yafray code. If this commit doesn't fix it, just disable Yafray code for now (WITH_BF_YAFRAY=0 for scons)...
Finally, here is the basic (functional) prototype of the new animation system which will allow for the infamous "everything is animatable", and which also addresses several of the more serious shortcomings of the old system. Unfortunately, this will break old animation files (especially right now, as I haven't written the version patching code yet), however, this is for the future.
Highlights of the new system:
* Scrapped IPO-Curves/IPO/(Action+Constraint-Channels)/Action system, and replaced it with F-Curve/Action.
- F-Curves (animators from other packages will feel at home with this name) replace IPO-Curves.
- The 'new' Actions, act as the containers for F-Curves, so that they can be reused. They are therefore more akin to the old 'IPO' blocks, except they do not have the blocktype restriction, so you can store materials/texture/geometry F-Curves in the same Action as Object transforms, etc.
* F-Curves use RNA-paths for Data Access, hence allowing "every" (where sensible/editable that is) user-accessible setting from RNA to be animated.
* Drivers are no longer mixed with Animation Data, so rigs will not be that easily broken and several dependency problems can be eliminated. (NOTE: drivers haven't been hooked up yet, but the code is in place)
* F-Curve modifier system allows useful 'large-scale' manipulation of F-Curve values, including (I've only included implemented ones here): envelope deform (similar to lattices to allow broad-scale reshaping of curves), curve generator (polynomial or py-expression), cycles (replacing the old cyclic extrapolation modes, giving more control over this). (NOTE: currently this cannot be tested, as there's not access to them, but the code is all in place)
* NLA system with 'tracks' (i.e. layers), and multiple strips per track. (NOTE: NLA system is not yet functional, as it's only partially coded still)
There are more nice things that I will be preparing some nice docs for soon, but for now, check for more details:
http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-taskforce25/2009-January/000260.html
So, what currently works:
* I've implemented two basic operators for the 3D-view only to Insert and Delete Keyframes. These are tempolary ones only that will be replaced in due course with 'proper' code.
* Object Loc/Rot/Scale can be keyframed. Also, the colour of the 'active' material (Note: this should really be for nth material instead, but that doesn't work yet in RNA) can also be keyframed into the same datablock.
* Standard animation refresh (i.e. animation resulting from NLA and Action evaluation) is now done completely separate from drivers before anything else is done after a frame change. Drivers are handled after this in a separate pass, as dictated by depsgraph flags, etc.
Notes:
* Drivers haven't been hooked up yet
* Only objects and data directly linked to objects can be animated.
* Depsgraph will need further tweaks. Currently, I've only made sure that it will update some things in the most basic cases (i.e. frame change).
* Animation Editors are currently broken (in terms of editing stuff). This will be my next target (priority to get Dopesheet working first, then F-Curve editor - i.e. old IPO Editor)
* I've had to put in large chunks of XXX sandboxing for old animation system code all around the place. This will be cleaned up in due course, as some places need special review.
In particular, the particles and sequencer code have far too many manual calls to calculate + flush animation info, which is really bad (this is a 'please explain yourselves' call to Physics coders!).
- Depricated another bunch of globals; all the totobj,
totmesh, totvert, and so on.
- All code that needs such totals now count it themselves,
these stats were not supposed to be reliable
- Editmesh now stores and manages own totals.
- Todo: make a scene->stats that tracks notifiers.
Bugfix: selecting failed in editmesh, backbuffer stuff was
too late, already using index ranges before it was set.
Organized as follows:
uvedit/
uv editing related code
uvedit_draw.c: drawing code
uvedit_ops.c: operators, just a few done
uvedit_unwrap_ops.c: will be operators for unwrapping
uvedit_paramatrizer.c: lscm/abf/stretch/pack
space_image/
space_image.c: registration and common getter/setters
image_draw.c: drawing code, mostly functional
image_panels.c: panels, all commented out
image_render.c: render callbacks, non functional
image_ops.c: operators, only view navigation done
image_header.c: header, menus mostly done but missing buttons
Notes:
* Header menus consist only of Operator and RNA buttons, if they
are not implemented they're displayed grayed out. Ideally the full
header could work like this, but std_libbuttons looks problematic.
* Started using view2d code more than the old code, but for now it
still does own view2d management due to some very specific
requirements that the image window has. The drawing code however
is more clear hopefully, it only uses view2d, and there is no
switching between 'p' and 'f' view2d's anymore, it is always 'f'.
* In order to make uvedit operators more independent I move some
image space settings to scene toolsettings, and the current image
and its buffer is in the context. Especially sync selection and
select mode belonged there anyway as this cannot work correct with
different spaces having different settings anyway.
* Image paint is not back yet, did not want to put that together with
uvedit because there's really no code sharing.. perhaps vertex paint,
image paint and sculpt would be good to have in one module to share
brush code, partial redraw, etc better.
Another one back: editcurve.c
- removed global editNurb everywhere
(cu->editnurb now has listbase with edit data)
- also added 'active bpoint' and 'active nurb' in
Curve struct
- editmode in/out works, mouse/border select works
- restored three more C files: editlattice, editkey
and editgroup
- editmode lattice working, (mouse select works)
- accidentally removed yesterday 3d cursor drawing
- removed global editLatt entirely now.
12k lines of sequencer back! Only seqaudio.c skipped for now.
Notes:
- it only draws now, nothing refreshes or edits.
- fixed bug in view2d.c with vertical grid step being 0.0f
- render code and fileselect code is #ifdeffed out
- sequence evaluation code moved to blenkernel, so it can
be used for render without bad level calls
General note; sequencer code is very untidy, mixing styles too
much. Tried to clean it some, but it would be nice if formatting
is kept consistant from now on.
Testing commit; this puts back support for swap-exchange graphics
cards, which I had hoped to have faded out... but it appears it
still does it for intel and some atis.
This only swap-exchanges properly for areas/regions, not for
menus or the 'action zone triange'. Let's see if it works!
You enable it with starting with commandline option -E
Instead of many commits, here 1!
- Constraint edit code back
- Removed XXX stubs for constraints
(make parent follow path works)
- Removed XXX stubs for armature
(make parent deform, do center, etc works)
- Found a bad uninitialized global Scene * in code, especially
in kernel it wreaked havoc.
- added missing include in blenkernel/brush.c
- fixed Nicholas' fix for editmode subsurf crash
(It needed to check for editmode)
- Weightpaint back (CTRL+TAB or menu)
Also weightpaint is sortof non-modal, allowing to use all existing
hotkeys while in paint mode. Only leftmouse is overridden.
- Made vpaint and wpaint entirely local, stored in scene (and saved!)
- Small bugfix (also in 2.48): on weightpaint mode, all armature objects
in 3d window were drawing as active poses. Now only the armature
deformer is.
Nice point for the UI agenda: are paint modes on ACTION mouse? Only then
you can combine it with SELECT mouse...
New: Custom region draw callbacks.
For Martin: an example is now in space_view3d/view3d_edit.c
On middlemouse rotate view, it draws a small square in center.
It works likes this:
#include "ED_space_api.h"
handle= ED_region_draw_cb_activate(region->type, drawfunc, type)
and to stop it:
ED_region_draw_cb_exit(region->type, handle)
drawfunc is of type (const bContext *C, ARegion *ar)
currently it gets called only as type REGION_DRAW_POST, later we
can add more (PRE, POST_XRAY, POST_2D, etc).
For correct usage, these calls should return leaving view transform
unaltered.
* Removed texfade, wasn't a very useful option (same result can be created with the falloff curve)
* Removed CurveMapping from sculptdata, moved instead to Brush
* Removed rake field from sculptdata, moved to Brush.flag
* Moved Anchored flag from sculpt to Brush, same for direction field
* Removed BrushData, replaced usages with the regular Brush type
* Removed hardcoded brushes and brush_type from sculptdata, replaced with a pointer to the current Brush
* Made sculpt tool type settable in Brush
* Changed symmetry and axis lock fields to flags
soc-2008-nicholasbishop branch.
Note: any old code with multires_test() or multires_level1_test() can
just be deleted, not needed by the multires modifier.
Cleanup:
- Makefile was using confused link order, now all intern and
and extern libs are put after blender and editor libs
- Old stubs.c in editors/screen removed. The leftover python
stubs calls were moved to python module.
Put back Armature/Pose code, including 'heat weight'.
I've added reeb.h to get things compile, but Martin will
cleanup files and put back?
Now where to put all vertexgroup code.... I guess mesh?
Note for msvc: yep, another new dir to add! :)
* Added crash fixes for loading old files with Actions/Armatures in them. Was caused by usage of some old globals still and the functions in question not performing NULL checks on the validity of the data they're given.
* Added back reorganise action channels tools (shift/ctrl-shif pageup/down) for Action Editor. These are only available in 'Action Mode' only.
* Tidied up Action Editor/Dopesheet tools code - removed various unused things, and also, added an API call in anim_deps.c to send the correct notifiers, since I anticipate that they're likely to require a few context checks which would be better to centralise than copy+paste everywhere.
Note to Ton: could you have a look at this notifier stuff here? I'm not sure which ones I should be sending...
* Also added a few assorted comments in various places
Small cleanup in region-based cursor handling.
- callback was in spacetype, now in regiontype
- made screen listener catch ND_MODE notifier and
call the active region cursor callback, if it's there.
- remove Verse support. This will be brought back in The Future (probably jiri + me)
This means 5k lines less in blenkernel.
- fix two small errors for global cleanup, now compiles properly with FFMPEG enabled too.
WM: added area-listener, which can be used to tag refreshes for
either the drawing call, or use the new ED_area_tag_refresh()
function which will automatically call, after all notifiers
were handled, an the spacetype->refresh() you provided.
Added for Joshua, after reviewing Action/Dopesheet requirements.
Joshua: I've made two dummy functions in space_action.c:
- action_listener()
- action_refresh()
Wich now does a printf on activating a new object.
Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.
From the anti-globalization department:
G.obedit terminated!
Wherever possible, use CTX_data_edit_object(C) to get this
now. It's stored in scene now, and the screen context has
it defined.
* errors in python called operators are raised as errors
* Python defined operators errors are reported as errors (not full traceback yet)
* added BKE_reports_string, same as BKE_reports_print but it returns a string rather then printing it.
* WM_operator_name_call optionally takes an initialized report struct
