for viewport display.
It saves plenty of memory when using subsurf modifier which result is getting
converted from CCGDM to CDDM without any benefit. It also syncs behavior of
modifiers with mesh.
Need to keep an eye on constructive modifiers when in edit mode.
Discovered this when was looking into #29973.
Currently supported passes:
* Combined, Z, Normal, Object Index, Material Index, Emission, Environment,
Diffuse/Glossy/Transmission x Direct/Indirect/Color
Not supported yet:
* UV, Vector, Mist
Only enabled for CPU devices at the moment, will do GPU tweaks tommorrow,
also for environment importance sampling.

- Fixed tooltip displaying for track sequence forwards in clip editor
- Corrected detection of 8 tracks so it wouldn't count tracks disabled
on keyframes.
- Scale track preview to actual track widget size instead of scaling the
whole preview image with given zoom ratio, so no extra memory needed to
store zoomed margin would be used.
- Track's statistics text will fit pattern position instead of search if
marker is disabled on current frame.
- Fixed toggle selection operator if selected track is hidden due to
"Hide Disabled" policy.
* Fix: Substep update failed if brush was parented to a canvas vertex. Now substeps are ignored in such case.
* Fix: Wave "open borders" option didn't work for image sequence format.
* Fixed a possible crash after changing surface format to image sequence.
* Some code cleanup.
Contrast helps to adjust IBL (HDR images used for background lighting).
Note: In the UI we are caling it Bright instead of Brightness. This copy what Blender composite is doing.
Note2: the algorithm we are using produces pure black when contrast is 100. I'm not a fan of that, but it's a division by zero. I would like to look at other algorithms (what gimp does for example). But that would be only after 2.62.
Org code was working with isotropic scaling, but when scaling only one axis, it was broken. First fix just disabled completly scale handling. This version only takes into account scaling along local Y axis, as this is the only one affecting that constraint!
Sorry for the mistake, hope this time it will be ok.
User side:
* Preview for DynamicPaint should keep the same behavior (for now). Weight preview should be somawhat quicker, though.
* Preview for WeightVG modifiers is only active in WeightPaint mode, and if the affected vgroup is the active one.
* Last active preview modifier in stack wins!
Note: that modifier preview topic is yet to be further refined, quite raw/incomplete for now.
Dev side:
* In draw code, renamed DRAW_DYNAMIC_PAINT_PREVIEW flag to DRAW_MODIFIERS_PREVIEW
* Removed use of MOD_DPAINT_PREVIEW_READY in DynamicPaint code (seems unecessary, and if it was, should be of more general scope).
* Added eModifierTypeFlag_UsesPreview to ModifierTypeFlag, for modifiers that can generate some preview data.
* Added three new modifier funcs, to handle preview modifiers in draw code / mod stack.
* For weights preview: added the generic DM_update_weight_mcol func, which can update WEIGHT_MCOL layer with either a given array of weights (currently used by DynamicPaint only), or from current active vgroup(s).
So now, draw code is fully generic (i.e. no more modifier-type checking in it). Mod stack code is generic to some extent, but will need more work.
edit a strip in the timeline
Tweaked the behaviour of the overwritting of extrapolation mode so that it is
less destructive when the problems it sets out to fix aren't likely to occur
(namely a top strip blocking everything below it due to extend backwards).
though it initially works
Problem was that in the past it was possible to have multiple strips/tracks
tagged as "active", but now after getting a correct implementation, we can no
longer have that, and thus entering Tweak Mode only works on the last selected
strip.
However this is problematic in cases when you want to tweak the keyframes of
several objects (which may only have a single strip each) in order to get them
to line up with each other. This hack caters for this case (selecting multiple
strips from the same AnimData block is still impossible and insane/illogical and
is not allowed).
This may have implications for some future tools which make assumptions about
certain aspects of NLA state. However, it shouldn't cause too many problems
(hopefully ;)
This commit restores support for freezing or speeding up physics sims. Animate
the "Speed" parameter under Domain->Time, which controls a multiplier factor for
the rate at which the sim proceeds (i.e. the old "Fac-Tim" setting).
Notes:
* Subversion bumped to 4 to patch up defaults for new value so that old sim
files will still run correctly
* Names/descriptions could do with some tweaking
* Porting this across was not that obvious since quite a bit of stuff had
changed (as in, been cleaned up). However, from tests so far, it seems to work
well.
CCGSubsurf has already a function to disable calculation of normals,
but seems it wasn't used. This patch changes subsurf UV and
subsurf_calculate_limit_positions() to not calculate normals, and also
not allocate space for them.
Should be no functional changes, just a small speedup/less memory use
during subdivision for these cases.

The structs stored in the anonymous void *default_value in bNodeSocket are now handled completely inside node_socket.c. All allocation/freeing/duplicating for this has been replaced by the appropriate calls to generic API functions (declared in NOD_socket.h).
This will make the default value handling more reliable for future node socket code. Group socket copying and value conversion has also been moved into the generic socket API file.
through Object.dm_info('SOURCE/DEFORM/FINAL')
this is to help tracking down issues with modifiers where loosing data
layers between modifiers can cause bugs, also to helo with comparing
bmesh/trunk's modifier stack.
=========================
Documentation: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Psy-Fi/UV_Tools
Major features include:
*16 bit image support in viewport
*Subsurf aware unwrapping
*Smart Stitch(snap/rotate islands, preview, middlepoint/endpoint stitching)
*Seams from islands tool (marks seams and sharp, depending on settings)
*Uv Sculpting(Grab/Pinch/Rotate)
All tools are complete apart from stitching that is considered stable but with an extra edge mode under development(will be in soc-2011-onion-uv-tools).
WARNING: This commits modifies how translated unconnected child bones with *no Inherit Rotation option* are positionned. This means that if you open a posed/animated armature using such (corner-case) setup, you'll have to adjust manually the locations of such bones: now, disabling Inherit Rotation/Scale will no more move the bone, only affecting its rotation/scale.
Many thanks to Bassam Kurdali (slikdigit) for his advices and tests of the patch!
-----
Dev notes : the pchan_to_pose_mat() func was added to BKE_armature.h, which computes two matrices to get the pose transformations (pchan) of the bone directly in pose (i.e. armature object) space. The first matrix is the rotation/scaling parts, the second one is for location.
That new function is used by (hence deduplicating and simplifying their code):
* The pose evaluation code (where_is_pose_bone()).
* The interactive transformation code (add_pose_transdata(), in transform_conversion.c).
* The snap to cursor/grid code (through armature_loc_pose_to_bone()/armature_mat_pose_to_bone()).
* Added per surface options "influence scale" and "radius scale" for tweaking brush settings individually for each surface.
* Added option to completely disable drying. This should be nice for indefinitely spreading paint etc.
* Improved paint mixing algorithm.
* "Paint effects" now work in relative mesh space instead of global. This means that effect speed remains same for identical shapes regardless of their size.
* Complete rewrite of "spread effect" algorithm. It now works much better in all test cases done. Old algo sometimes produced artifacts and stopped spreading too early.
* Adjustments / rewrite on some parts of dripping algorithm to make it work better with transparent paint.
* Added a new "color dry" setting. It can be used to define wetness level when paint colors start to shift to surface "background". Lower values can be useful to prevent spreading paint from becoming transparent as it dries, while higher (default) values give better results in general.
* Fix: If multiple displace/wave surfaces were used simultaneously, displace was applied using wrong normal.
Please note that due to these changes in "paint effects" system older save files may require some tweaking to match results from previous versions.
This also fixes cursor movement in the beginning of line and adds do_versions block for converting text files with old extended ascii encoding into UTF-8.
