* Disable shaded mode for now, it cause too many crashes combined
with preview render, will be fixed properly later.
* Make 3d view toolbar region a bit wider. Ideally this would not
be needed, but the sculpt/paint buttons just don't fit otherwise.
* Revert change to icon/text spacing in buttons, it breaks text
editing and clipping. Will properly fix this later so changing
the spacing can be done centrally.
* Fix for grease pencil simplify stroke python error. Now button
is hidden (as in 2.4), but still available through outliner.
* Fix for memory leak in UI code, when using ctrl+Q menu.
* Fix submenu > icon being drawn on some buttons where it was not
needed.
* Added toolbar UI for setting "anchored" mode
* Added a "persistent" mode for the layer brush; basically you can keep sculpting on the same layer between strokes when this is on. There's a button to reset the base so you can add another layer on top of that, and so on.
This feature was suggested by Blenderer on BA, thanks!
Note, I think these options could use better names in the UI, but I couldn't really think of anything very descriptive, suggestions welcome
- Bugfix: a bit too fast ;-) Better do it right too (problem with res > 150)
- fixing high res view button which disappeared sometimes
- fixing tooltip
When there were no strips but some empty tracks, the active action should be evaluated normally. This is not an optimal solution (more user testing + suggestions regarding the best way to do this is welcome).
* Added callback function for some metaball properties:
When some properties (wiresize, threshold, update flags) of metaball are changed, then these properties are copied to all metaballs in the group (all metaballs with same base name). This is important to "share" some properties between metaballs, because polygonisation of metaball is influenced only by properties of base metaball and base metaball can be changed.
* Improved drawing of selected Metaball objects
a) fixing domain boundaries
b) fixing flow gui (no more velocity there - taken from particles)
c) Outflow available (deletes smoke from scene)
d) deactivating other noise options for now
e) base for render/preview settings
f) fixing collisions to be working again
This brings back sequencer rendering, moving do_render_seq() into the
pipeline where it belongs.
Things to fix: SCENE-strip rendering and memory cleanup for
SCENE-strips.
Otherwise: enjoy :)
Note: Rna access to softbody point cache is through softbody modifier although the point cache is in softbody settings. This is to make it similar to cloth.
Bugfix: Softbody rna was trying to get "ob->soft->softflag" instead of the correct "ob->softflag".
* "Pushing down" the action to make a new strip will now make the new strip the 'active' one.
* 'Active Action' field in Animation Data panel is now editable as long as we aren't in "tweakmode"
* Added some optimisations to avoid having to try evaluating some data that won't have any effect.
* Converted playback buttons in timeline header to use operators too
* Animated ShapeKey F-Curves/Drivers are now visible in the Animation Editors.
* As a result of this, the old 'ShapeKeys' mode (which would display all the shapekey channels, even if they had no keyframes yet) in the DopeSheet, no longer works for now. However, it would have been of no use as no sliders were shown anyway.
* Drivers which depended on the rotation of bones now work again. These now point to the right RNA properties, and get some extra 'time' corrections (for degrees -> radians change).
* When doing realtime recording of animation (i.e. transforming objects + bones while animation playback is running, and auto-keying is enabled), animation will be added to a new NLA Track+Strip combo everytime a single 'loop' of the frame range has finished. This will allow 'passes' over the animation to be less destructive.
* Made the evaluation of the active action (when NLA data is present), be handled as part of the normal NLA system evaluation code (as if it were just another strip in a track at the end). The immediate benefit is that there are now some settings (available in the "Animation Data" panel in the NLA Editor with a strip selected) which allow for the way the active action is combined with the NLA stack results. For instance, the way that the action extrapolates is used in the recording tweaks above.
a) Crash fixed when loading files with smoke
b) changed presets to be more low-cpu friendly
c) smoke looks thicker
Unsolved:
a) 3dview of smoke changes weirdly when looking at front/back. Just move around a cube with smoke and you know what I mean - odd shading. If someone likes to take a look: draw_object.c -> search for "smoke" there
Not working:
a) rendering (since volumterics branch is not merged yet)
b) moving collision objects of any kind
c) saving of collision objects (because that's what I am working on)
d) pointcache
e) A bunch of other things I already know of
So please do not report any bugs on this one yet :-)
Other code will eventually move out of armature editor (to help reuse).
This solves the issue reported by Cambo on the ml about kernel code calling editor functions.
* When resizing the window, the top position is now preserved,
instead of the center position.
* Fix zoom level not being preserved in various cases, when
changing both with and height. This replaces some earlier code
which did this at screen level but wasn't very reliable.
* Different tabs now each preserve their own scroll.
* When switching between tabs, it now scrolls to show as many
buttons as possible, instead of possibly showing empty space.
There is a trade-off here between doing that keeping the
buttons in the same place, no ideal solution exists I think.
* Change zooming in/out to be symmetric, for example doing
numpad + then - did not give the original zoom level back.
* Added some calls to avoid hanging tooltips when manipulating
the view.
Internals:
* Added V2D_KEEPOFS_X and V2D_KEEPOFS_Y to keep the top/bottom
rather than the center.
* Renamed V2D_KEEPZOOM to V2D_LIMITZOOM (seems more appropriate),
and make V2D_KEEPZOOM preserve the zoom level.
Operator goodies!
--- Macro operators
Operators now can consist of multiple operators. Such a macro operator
is identical and behaves identical to other opererators. Macros can
also be constructed of macros even! Currently only hardcoded macros are
implemented, this to solve combined operators such as 'add duplicate' or
'extrude' (both want a transform appended).
Usage is simple:
- WM_operatortype_append_macro() : add new operatortype, name, flags
- WM_operatortype_macro_define() : add existing operator to macro
(Note: macro_define will also allow properties to be set, doesnt work
right now)
On converting the macro wmOperatorType to a real operator, it makes a
list of all operators, and the standard macro callbacks (exec, invoke,
modal, poll) just will use all.
Important note; switching to a modal operator only works as last in the
chain now!
Macros implemented for duplicate, extrude and rip. Tool menu works fine
for it, also the redo hotkey F4 works properly.
--- Operator redo fix
The operators use the undo system to switch back, but this could give
errors if other actions added undo pushes (buttons, outliner). Now the
redo for operator searches back for the correct undo level.
This fixes issues with many redos.
Note for brecht: removed the ED_undo_push for buttons... it was called
on *every* button now, which is probably too much? For example, using
the 'toolbar' redo also caused this...
- running a script from a file now uses the PyRun_File(FILE *, ...) rather then PyRun_String("exec(open(r'/somepath.py').read())"...), aparently FILE struct on windows could not ensured to be the same between blender and python, since we use our own python on windows now it should be ok.
- generating docs works again (operator update for py style syntax broke them)
- python operator doc strings was being overwritten
- added rna property attribute "default" to get the default value of a property, not working on arrays currently because variable length arrays are not supported.
Various fixes for painting, sculpting and particle edit, still
much to be done...
* Move RNA paint and sculpt structs into rna_sculpt_paint.c,
* Added Particle Edit RNA.
* Some tweaks to existing Paint RNA.
* Put texture paint and particle edit object in context.
* Fix some errors in the brush layout, properly doing None
checks, fixing some wrong property identifiers.
* Added tool enum for texture paint and particle edit in panels.
* Allow editing brush textures in the texture buttons, still with
a stupid toggle, ideas for how to make the connection better are
welcome.
* Fix crash entering particle mode, and particles not showing.
Janne, please check the changes I made in psys_cache_paths,
I'm not confident they are correct.
* Fix some warnings
