* Sphere radius and Kr derivative epsilon were removed from the
Parameter Editor mode. Now sphere radius of 1.0 and Kr derivative
epsilon of 0.0 are used by default. The rationale of the removal
is two-fold: little predictability and very minor artistic values.
The effects of these parameters are hard to estimate in advance,
which likely leads to a frustration of users due to repeated
trials and unpredicted results. Therefore, the two parameters
are considered to have quite limited artistic values. Proper
definitions of the two parameters more and less require the
knowledge of differential geometry and would not make sense to
most artists for which the Parameter Editor is intended.
* Sphere radius and Kr derivative epsilon are still available in
the Python Scripting mode, but now in an "advanced options" section
that is disabled and hidden by default. This way new users are
properly warned, while expert users with specific technical needs
can enable these options if they want. The same default values
mentioned above are used when the two parameters are disabled.
support in some older cards, now it does a more precise check for problematic
cards so that it can be enabled on new cards that do support it properly.
- Mipmaps are generated in BLF when drawing text in-game. In that case, padding around each glyph is increased to prevent bleeding.
- Texture filtering is turned on for in-game text.
- All glyphs are now "twisted": the leading edge is brought a small distance forward, to prevent z-fighting in overlapping (kerned) glyphs. This happens both in the game engine and the rest of the UI, but should have no effect in the UI due to Z-compression in the clipping matrix.
Reviewed and approved by bdiego; see patch [#29882] in the tracker. Tested by dfelinto.
Initial idea was to perform bilinear filtering for displaying proxied frame
to make it looking a bit smoother. It was done but it was also discovered
that using such kind of texture buffers helps on some crappy videocards
when playing $k footage.
Currently check for NPOT support is disabled, so use this option with care.
- Split display options into two panels:
* Display, which contains all general display options related on editor itself
* Marker Display, which contains options which makes sense for markers themselves
and not used so often.
- Remove Show GPencil option which doesn't actually make sense because strokes might
be disabled from GPencil panel
- Removed Show Pyramid option and show pyramid for KLT tracker as default.
- Added hotkey to toggle Show Disabled (Alt-D)
- Added hotkey to toggle Show Pattern (Alt-S)
Changes in interface and hotkeys are done by Sebastian Koenig.
Thanks for the patch!
Own changes in interface were related on Aspect Ratio. It doesn't make
much sense for tracking (camera pixel aspect is what you'll want to use,
but for masking it would make much more sense because when you just
want to create a mask for footage you don't actually have camera).
Just removing from interface seems not so nice for now.
Crash was caused by invalidation of ID pointers stored in sequencer clipboard
when using undo (undo leads to changes in IDs addresses in memory).
Restore pointers stored in clipboard in the same way as IDs are restoring
for user interface.
"Holes" used to be ignored (i.e. when using "Text" as bevel object "e" wouldn't have a "hole").
Resolved by collecting all polys needed for top and bottom cap and filling them at once
