* Removed ED_anim_dag_flush_update and ED_anim_object_flush_update. These
were wrapping DAG_* calls and were intended be used instead of them when
doing a DAG update from editors. That goes against the design in my opinion,
no matter who calls the DAG, that should update the editors correctly, so
any special checks in such functions for editors should be avoided.
* Driver RNA properties now do updates again, including DAG scene sorting,
text buttons no longer update as you type anymore, so this should be
safe I think.
* Remove scene.update() RNA function, all properties/functions should do this
automatically, if changing some property or calling a function/operator
does not do the correct update, that should be fixed.
* Now has documentation links and recent files.
* Click on image or outside splash to make it go away.
* Still has old image, new one will be committed later.
* Tweaked the code for operator buttons so that only those operator buttons in the toolbar have their text left-aligned. This is done at layout-block level
* Silenced "file_init" print when opening the file browser
* Disabled animateability of the "active_shape_key_index" for Objects, since this property behaves in a very unpredictable manner, leading to problems with users trying to keyframe shapekey values and ending up keying the list.
* Remove some unnecessary RNA wrapping code
Rather than applying the modifier to the object data, it will create a new shape
with the deformed vertices in there. Only mesh at the moment, other object
types on the todo.
Parenting an object to some deformer (i.e. Armature, Curve, Lattice) now adds a new modifier if the object is deformable.
The advantages of this over setting PAR_SKEL mode are:
- instead of a hidden 'virtual' modifier, the user has direct feedback about what sort of modifier is being applied to deform
- most of the time in 2.4, whenever a virtual modifier was added, users would inevitably end up clicking "Make Real" on it
Of course, it's still possible to get 'virtual' modifiers by setting the parent type using the menu-property, but this just makes general setup easier.
- the clipping test function was using the rv3d->viewmatob where it needed to use the object matrix.
- added a local clipping member to rv3d, the clipping planes in object-space, avoids many matrix multiplications when testing verts or clipping pixels when projection painting.
- removing duplicate chunks of code -> hide unused sockets now works
- moving some functions to the files that they get called from -> view all/home
- made duplicate a macro operator like the other places that work like this, eliminating the unnecessary transform-related property there still
- removed a few chunks of unused code
Added some more methods for the Red-Black Tree implementation in Blender (used for runtime viewing and searching of keyframes) which abstract away some of the lower-level handling of the BST (i.e. adding nodes without balancing and searching for nodes).
Also, improved the implementation of the jump next/prev keyframe operator so that it pops up an error message when the last keyframe in whatever direction is encountered.
This commit restores Grease Pencil functionality for the Nodes Editor. Grease Pencil data is now stored at the NodeTree level, which means that annotations remain with the NodeTree they were made for.
Possible TODO's:
* In future, it may be worth investigating attaching Grease Pencil data to individual nodes, to allow annotations to stay attached to nodes as they are moved
* Include the settings for the 'active node' in a panel in the new NKEY region where the Grease Pencil buttons appear.
Now when nodes are keyed, they will show up in the dopesheet/graph editor/etc in a new 'Nodetree' category.
Still a major problem left, nodes need unique names in order for the rna paths to hold animation data properly...
This allows you to set and animate the values of socket inputs and outputs, for example the value node.
It's also a step on the way to manipulating node trees via python (i.e. linking node sockets to each other).
This fixes [#19841] RGB Node in compositor not working
- rna vars arm.bones.active & rna.edit_bones.active
- needed special undo support.
- readfile.c loads.
- duplicate and copy_armature support.
- keep the draw flag, renamed to BONE_DRAW_ACTIVE, only use for openGL drawing.
Note: it may be better to allow active/unselected as with objects.
* When there is only a single keyframe for a F-Curve, the handles aren't shown anymore. This looks nicer than the fat orange blobs that appeared
* Tweaked the management of GL_BLEND when drawing animation channels in the Graph Editor in an attempt to fix some of the missing text drawn issues.
* Converted the properties panel to use layout engine + added color selectors
useful for python but in rare cases this also happens for users.
Active layer getting out of sync is an old bug but hard find when it happens.
This at least fixes segfaulting on adding objects.
- use OBJECT_OT_mode_set rather then OBJECT_OT_*_toggle, better for using report output for script input. OBJECT_OT_posemode_toggle and OBJECT_OT_editmode_toggle are called by OBJECT_OT_mode_set.
I tried to make it integrate more with regular render but couldn't
do it well, it still needs a 3D view to take the settings from, and
can't run in a separate thread due to OpenGL.
However, it is now rendering to an offscreen buffer which then gets
displayed in the image window. This requires FBO's to be available, so
a fallback creating a new window is still needed. Currently available
from the Render menu in the top header.
* Extrude and Duplicate for Armatures now use proper macros instead of manually calling transform themselves. This means that repeating these operators now works properly.
** NOTE: there's a bug with macros now which prevents the 'forked' extrude operator working correctly. Bug report filed for this.
* Included the proper operators for extrude and duplicate in the toolbar + menus. The operators used there did not activate transform, which meant that users often could not tell that the operation had occurred at all.
* Submenus displaying the options available for certain operators now will now show the hotkey for the operator on the menu entries.
* Added an option for mirroring keyframes in the Graph Editor which makes use of the new cursor
* Mouse wheel now scrolls the list.
* Up/down key and alt mouse wheel change the active item.
* Adding/removing items from the list now automatically scrolls so the
active item is in the view.
* Shift mouse wheel changes the size of the list widget to display more
items. Lazy replacement for a proper grip.
* Shape key list now displays the influence value next to the name,
* Also fix the range of the value slider to match the defined min/max
range.
part. This fixes a bug where transform help line drawing would not
work with view clipping and mess up the z-buffer. This avoids the
transform code having to figure out what kind of opengl state is
enabled and disable it temporarily.
- weight blending (Vertex specials menu), currently blends from surrounding unselected verts (nice for blending edge loops), but will eventually support face mask mode.
*Put the Modifiers tab *before* the ObData (mesh, curve etc) tab, because modifiers actually apply to Object , not the ObData, even though the opposite would appear to make more sense.
