All settings through Blender.Modifier.Settings

Also added some error checking to fix some possible segfaults.

Modifiers API should be stable enough to use now, though give it a bit of time for testing.

This replaces (as a user preference) the static icon shown in the bottom-left of the 3D View with a small rotating axis that updates live in all ortho/perspective modes
I made several modifications to the original patch. In the patch, it displayed the axis on top of the 'object info' text since when floating panels are minimised, they sit in the bottom corner and cover the axis up. This annoyance is not limited to the axis, it also covers the frame number and info text, which can be frustrating. Sending them to the bottom is not that useful either, since it's quicker (with esc) and just as much movement to close and re-open them again.
I decided to solve this problem at the cause: Now when using the disclosure triangle on floating panels, they 'minimise in place' rather than going to the bottom.
User preferences are in the 'View & controls' section to:
- Display either the 3D axis or the old icon
- The size of the axis
- the brightness of the axis (colours are taken from grid theme settings)
* patch #3801: Option to show view direction in 3D View
submitted by Daniele Fornaciari
Simple one, just adds an user pref to show the name of the view's direction as text in the top left corner.
matrix.resize4x4() was incorrectly allocating a array of pointers using
the wrong cast -- sizeof(float) instead of sizeof(float *). Worked fine
on 32-bit systems but caused a crash on AMD64. Discovered by a student
in one of my classes (kudos, Joe).
Patch #4119, submitted by Lukas Steiblys (imbusy1). Mesh objects (created
through the toolbox) which take user input such as number of verts, are not
created if the user cancels input. Thanks for the patch!
More Modifier API changes:
* add Blender.Modifier.Settings dict with constants for modifier types
* add mod.type attribute, which returns type of the Modifier
* add some internal consistency checks in ModSeq_remove
New Ipo and IpoCurve API. Ipo and IpoCurve objects support the [] operator,
for accessing the curves of a particular Ipo and for accessing the value
of an IpoCurve at a specific time. Both modules were also "tp_getset"-ified.
Also, code for an alternative method (Antont wanted this) of accessing curves
via Ipo attributes is included for now, for people to try and see if it's
actually preferable to the Ipo [] operator.
These are all new additions; nothing was intentionally removed from the API.
If you find the something in the existing API has changed, let me know.
a fairly obvious bug- with flipping armature names in armature edit mode.
All Objects names would flip if they had names from the armature, even if they did NOT use use armature. (this could realy mess up a scene)
fix was a 1 liner.
replaced
modob = modifiers_isDeformedByArmature(ob);
if(modob) {
with
/* or is there an armature deforming object */
/* this is a bit sloppy, what if we have more then 1 armature deforming a mesh?
TODO: Should have a function modifiers_isUsingArmature(ob, arm) - Campbell */
modob = modifiers_isDeformedByArmature(ob);
if(modob && modob->data==arm) {
Notice that before it didnt care what armature, just that it had one.
If the maintainer Ton? gives me the OK. Ill make this support multiple armatures by adding modifiers_isUsingArmature.
notice that if you pressed Akey when no objects in the view it still pushed an undo event, redrew and counted all and change the memory usage in the status.
mainly added not to waist undo slots.
version 1.58 assumes the usage of the BUILD_DATE macro. When this macro is not defined the extern declarations cause the linker to fail.
As a sidenote there is no 'winbuildinfo.c' file that the BUILD_DATE macro assumes is present on win32 systems....
When the 'reference shape key' (drawn yellow) was not the first key, the
channels as drawn in IpoWindow didn't match the actual shape keys.
This was caused by an exception in code that skips drawing the reference
shape when 'relative' was used.
Now I've added a rule that the first shape in a list always becomes the
reference, that way you can also edit it. To keep backwards compatibility,
this is only activated on translating the shape key lines.
Finally after 5 months! :)
Patch was already approved, but needed testing on existing files & time...
Description is here:
http://mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Transmissivity
In short: patch adds filtering based on thickness of material, and support
for internal reflection (resulting in better looking glass).
Thanks!
(Only note; appearance of glass render now differs... is acceptable, but for
the factor to control transmissivity a scaling factor could be added in UI,
the length of a ray is a relative thing...)
Patch #4044 patch to change the step when changing frame with up or down arrow keys.
This adds a per Scene setting to specify the number of frames skipped by the up and down arrow.
This setting can be changed in the Timeline header and in the Anim/Playback section of the Scene settings.
Upon loading a file without that setting or creating a new scene, it is set to 10
Also fixed the Start and End frame buttons in the Scene buttons to do a proper refresh.
implicit declarations, redundant redeclarations, missing initializers,
nested externs and other cruft.
Cleaned up includes and moved extern _Type decls from Types.h into
Types.c since that is the only place where they are needed now.
Did not touch Ipo.[ch] since work is on-going there.
NLA and Action window sometimes suffered from very weird scaled display,
caused by making the subwindow very small. Was a missing check for small
sizes.
Also in this commit removal of debug print N_T left in for ipos.

Looking for installed Python version XXX

'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
No installed Python found.
Only built-in modules are available. Some scripts may not run.
Continuing happily.
And while we are at it, clean up a couple of compiler warnings.
Using "International Fonts" (silly name, it's pixmap fonts) the special
characters (values above 127) were disregarded completely.
This was caused with the extremely confusing unicode conversion call, which
actually only was needed when translations were set.
Disabling the unicode conversion then gives correct text drawing. However,
I suspect that this code will give issues for translations too... that I
cannot judge nor fix.
Zero-sized bones in an Armature didn't result in a stable rest position.
This caused bones to rotate to random positions on each editmode exit.
This commit will automatically remove such bones on exit editmode now, and
adds a warning print for it. I've tried to code exception handling for
zero-sized bones, but this is just too hard to get stable. Better to define
by default that Bones always should have a length.
Typically zero-sized bones only get added by accident, for example while
ctrl+clicking new bones.
Bug #3779: In camera view with center cursor (on camera), it's impossible to use translations.
Initgrabz didn't account for negative zero values (nor near zero values). Works now.
Of course, this is just a safety to give back the appearance of working, since the cursor is on the point of convergence, there's no way to properly calibrate anything.
Word of advice: Always check where the transform center is.
