* made bmesh_structure.h function names more consistant.
* remove unused code in bmesh_structure.c
* removed 'Edge Flip' operator (missing from bmesh but looked into trunk feature and dont think its worth keeping).
* tagged some BMESH_TODO's
rather then recalc polygon normals - solidify is simple enough to just flip the normals of the copied faces, the rim faces normals are already re-calculated so copy them.
Don't really know why, but appears we need to recalc normals when this option is ON.
Also small perf improvement (avoid to compute twice each face normals).
* better type safety for BM_elem_flag_* and BM_elem_index_* functions.
* add BMElem type to be used where BMFace/Edge/Vert/Loop can be interchanged.
* fix bug in select manifold, found when making functions more strict.
* change BMO_elem_flag_* defines to inline functions.
* BMO_slot_map_insert() is too big for an inline function - un-inline it.
* remove redundant casts.
* remove 'select' and 'hide' from BMLoop
* remove BMesh.update
* add BMesh.normal_update(skip_hidden=False)
* add BMElemSet.index_update(), eg: bm.verts.index_update()
bmesh api
* BM_mesh_normals_update() now takes skip_hidden as an argument
(previously this was default behavior), however this isnt good when
using BMesh modifiers, where you want all normals to be recalculated.
* add bm_iter_itype_htype_map[], to get the iter type from a BMesh
iterator.
Seems that after converting tessfaces into faces normals should be re-calculated.
At least that's what happening in some other modifiers and what makes boolean
work fine with smooth normals.
- use SMOOTH flag for edges (removed sharp flag and inverted), gives us an extra flag slot available.
- rename BM_edge_is_nonmanifold --> BM_edge_is_manifold and invert result, BM_vert_is_nonmanifold too.
`_set` suffix was used in two ways (confusing)
* to set a flag to be enabled.
* to set a value passed as an argument.
now use enable/disable rather then set/clear for functions which change flags.
also remove BME_weld.c, the file didnt contain much code and the current extrude works well
* add DM_to_bmesh_ex, DM_to_bmesh for converting a derived mesh to a BMesh (rather than a BMEditMesh)
* have a generic variable for allocsize: bm_mesh_allocsize_default, rather than copying the values about.
* Exploded faces that were meant to be hidden were still created with invalid vertices (0,0,0,0).
* In normal cases this went unnoticed, but for example edge split modifier crashed when it encountered these faces.
These changes are to make the bmesh api more consistent and easier to learn, grouping similar functions which is convenient for autocomplete.
This uses similar convention to RNA.
* use face/loop/edge/vert as a prefix for functions.
* use 'elem' as a prefix too for functions that can take any type with a BMHeader.
* changed from camel case to underscore separated (like RNA).
This was a request by Daniel Salazar. It adds a new frame offset variable to fluid sim settings, which can be used to display baked fluid sims at different times. Eventually this could be replaced by real NLA strips for cached data, but until then this is a simple way to have more flexible cache result usage.
Not strictly a BCon3 patch, but after IRC discussion with Genscher, ZanQdo and kaito decided to commit it anyway, since it's a small feature and makes fluid sim a bit more usable. Similar patch for point cache (particles, smoke, cloth) is being worked on as well.
Issue was caused by union policy needed to deal with cases when operand intersects
two or more intersecting meshes of another operand.
Changed this policy to run union operation only if there's actual intersection
between two meshes of the same object. Should work in general but it's still
possible to make it behave incorrect -- for example object consist of two groups
if concentric cubes which intersects each other.
