So, editmode mesh is back! :)
At the moment only TABkey works and mouse select, 1 vertex at a
time. More will follow of course.
Note for the devs:
- G.editMesh has been removed, be careful with old code.
- EditMesh now is property of Mesh itself
Although it means unlimited editmodes, for migration purposes we
better stick to 1 "obedit" per scene, which is in Context too
- G.obedit will get removed soon, so use CTX_data_edit_object(C)
Or if you can't, just scene->obedit for now
- Also removed the CTX_data_edit_mesh(), this has no meaning
anymore. EditMesh is not context senstitive anymore, only the
edit-object for time being is.
- Martin: I've already tucked some EditMesh pointer in T and
removed all G.editMesh there.
* Store RNA collections different in ID properties, using a generic
ID property array, using the patch provided by Joe.
* Fix bug accessing registered operator properties in the wm from the
outliner.
* In the outliner, only use the RNA icon for RNA data, and use dot
again for unknown icon.
* Also, show pointer properties data in the second column, and auto
expand two levels when opening them.
* Added small RNA_struct_defined_properties function to get only the
defined properties without builtin and undefined id properties
(for py operators).
* The RNA viewer is now more integrated with the outliner, as
a "Datablocks" view, with a tree structure.
* Still some issues to be solved with persistence, and also
memory usage is problematic when expanding a million vertices
in a mesh for example, though it will not build closed parts
of the tree.
Editmesh code cleaned and compiling/linking. A whopping
20k lines back! :)
Not that it does stuff... editmode in/out has to be done,
and loads of operators. Also linking/exporting editmesh
calls has to be reviewed.
Also: added a blender_test_break() mechanism in BKE.
* Added old theme-set version patch for new Dopesheet channel colours
* Removed warnings in action_edit_keyframes.c. I need an example of how to add error reports for the code that this concerned.
* Added a report list to operator, to which they can report errors and
warnings. When the operator ends, it will display them with a popup. For
python these should become exceptions when calling operators.
* Added a function to make a popup menu from a report list.
* Also added a utility function to prepend a string before the reports to
indicate what they relates to. Also made the report functions used
BLI_dynstr to simplify the code.
* Made file reading and writing report errors to the user again using this
system, also replacing the left over uncommented bad level error() calls.
More notifier cleanups:
NC_SCENE|ND_OB_SELECT : scene level object selections changed
NC_SCENE|ND_OB_ACTIVE : scene level, new active object
NC_OBJECT|ND_BONE_SELECT : object level, bone selection changed
NC_OBJECT|ND_BONE_ACTIVE: object level, new active bone
I've made view3d listen to these, so operators that change
selections don't have to tag own region for redraw anymore.
Also enabled selecting/activating in outliner again.
BTW: Added it in space_action, but Joshua has to code the
proper refresh still :)
This can be activated using Ctrl-C/V and the buttons on the header.
It still uses an ugly global copy/paste buffer for now. In future, we could investigate alternative methods...
Anim playback part 1 (needs more test, will do after commit)
- added the update_for_new_frame() back
- proper evaluation of time change notifier in WM level
- fixed redraw flushes for menus while animation plays.
Notifier system upgrade, based on Brecht's doc.
Implementation notes:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/DataNotifiers#Implementation
In short: let's try to strictly communicate in a notifier what happened.
The listeners then can act themselves. It also means that a frame-changed
notifier doesn't send out redraws, the editors themselves can decide.
This means you can define an operator in python that is called from C or Python - like any other operator.
Python functions for invoke and exec can be registered with an operator name.
keywords are read from the python exec() function, then used to create operator properties. The default python values are used to set the property type and defaults.
def exec(size=2.0, text="blah"): ...
is equivalent to...
prop = RNA_def_property(ot->srna, "size", PROP_FLOAT, PROP_NONE);
RNA_def_property_float_default(prop, 2.0f);
prop = RNA_def_property(ot->srna, "size", PROP_STRING, PROP_NONE);
RNA_def_property_string_default(prop, "blah");
TODO -
* make use of events
* return OPERATOR_CANCELLED/OPERATOR_FINISHED.. etc
* add support for array args
* more testing
- Added 3d cursor operator (no exec, waiting for vector property!)
- Added default editor callbacks, for the poll() function.
Example:
ot->poll= ED_operator_view3d_active;
I'll add later more, per module, such as OBJECT_active, which
can be called without WM active
Brought back 'smooth view'. Took some hours to untangle it all,
code was spread all over, instead of localized in 1 call. Tsk!
Still not perfect, but at least more in control. For the hackers;
check void smooth_view() in view3d_view.c, here all 3d view
stuff should be handled, so it can optionally use animating.
For the users: 'smooth view' now plays at a maximum of 30 hz,
and doesn't block anymore. So even slow animated views remain
responsive if you press many numpad keys.
Timers: added extra 'event type' argument to call to add a timer:
WM_event_add_window_timer(win, event_type, interval)
This way other timer systems don't generate overhead on the queues.
(button timers were creating unused animation-playback operators)
Operator calls: extended WM_operator_name_call() with options whether to
call the exec() (operate immediate) or invoke() (check user input) entry.
This will allow python to use it more efficiently, but also solves the
dreaded pulldown case that showed another menu for confirmation.
New names to learn: :)
WM_OP_EXEC_DEFAULT
WM_OP_INVOKE_DEFAULT
on todo still: allow hotkey definitions to do same.
* WM_operator_pystring to print the python func+args for an operator
* call WM_operator_print(op) in wm_operator_invoke(), simple echo mode should be moved later.
Further simplifying making operators with menus;
now you can add an 'invoke' callback:
WM_menu_invoke
which will automatically generate a menu with choices and assign
it to the property 'type'.
What also helps typing is the new RNA_enum_is_equal() function.
Here's a paste of the now committed 'clear parent'. Note the
undo push will become a flag too.
http://pasteall.org/3660
(Brecht; fixed small bug in RNA_enum_is_equal!)
To evaluate: solving dependencies for multipe scenes... probably
will make a more generic flush call.
Fix: popup menus were not freeing operators.
Made a new Popup menu call for this case:
uiPupmenuOperator(C, maxrow, op, propname, menustr);
It will set enum "propname" to the menu item and call operator,
register it optionally and free it. Use it in "invoke" calls.
Next: automatic menu generating for enum properties!
Our precious outliner is back! :)
Currently no operations are active there, nor notifiers to refresh
other windows. Be patient!
You can switch to RNA with the 'view' menu.
Later we'll sort out how much of both get integrated in 1 system, or
have both options, or make designated 'data view' for rna? ALso the
old Oops... bring back?
Better implementation of own window timers, not using ghost.
That makes blender's WM nice in control, and gives callers
of timers the opportunitie to evaluate time passed since
previous step. This system also only generates one timer
event per main loop (events - handlers - notifiers - draw)
Small fix: allow keymap modifier to give KM_ANY to ignore
modifier keys, this to have TIMER keymap work.
Animated screen! (unfinished, now only draws, no animation code yet).
Fun though to see it all work. :)
NOTE: Mac ghost has timer bug, the GHOST_ProcessEvents() doesnt wake
up for timers.
NOTE2: Added while loop in wm_window_process_events() to force Ghost
giving all events to Blender. Timers otherwise don't accumulate...
might be needed to fix in ghost too.
I tend to think to code own timer, this ghost stuff is totally different
per platform.
- Added default Circle 'gesture' operator callbacks.
As test, added in view3d window as Ckey, paint over object centers.
- Fixed notifier for gesture, to only cause redraws in own region.
- Bugfix: loading files should close running handlers and subwindows, gave
memory leaks that way.
- Bugfix: space image copy function didn't do curvemap
- Cleanup: moved view operators from view3d_select to view3d_view
- View3D: added ALT+B clipping operator. Note this needs a call to
the new function view3d_operator_needs_opengl(C) to ensure you
can use opengl functions. Event handling by default doesn't set
opengl per subwindow, it's also forbidden to draw then!
We might consider to tag operators that need opengl...
- Forgot to include creator.c fix for loading builtin vector font
"operator.ED_VIEW3D_OT_viewhome(center=1)" calls the operator, converting keyword args to properties.
Need a way to run scripts in the UI for useful testing.
Still need to deal with operator exceptions and verifying args against operator options.
Added temporary WM_operatortype_first() to allow python to return a list if available operators, can replace this with something better later (operator iterator?)
- View3D: selecting added. Note it nicely respects user preset, by using
the keymap define SELECTMOUSE.
- Added missing initialize of default vector font, so text draws.
- Ported over view3d header buttons.
Most of the options don't work :) but some do!
- Fixed makefiles for new animation module
- added icon definitions in resources to match current trunk.
- removed context usage, should not be in this module
- remove G.main usage, now is passed along
- still some globals in use here, goal is to get rid of those too,
so that it's possible to load/save blendfiles without having to
think about some global state.
All of the view3d drawing code is now 'Context' free.
The idea is:
- ED_region_do_draw() sets and freezes drawing context
- regiontype draw() callback then can pass on other relevant
context stuff as function args.
Also cleaned up the WM opengl wrappers, to mimic opengl state;
no reason to give window pointer anymore.
Drawing code for space_view3d module.
It's still not cleaned, have to check on context usage still.
Also missing is editmodes, armatures, and probably more.
Known issue: splitting to 2nd window gives bad opengl lighting.
Picture for fun:
http://www.blender.org/bf/rt2.jpg
Current stat: brought back almost 10k lines! :)
- WM subwindows now get freed on every ED_region_exit(). Was not
a leak, but it's cleaner this way (and saves some kilobytes!).
- fixed debug print for operators (on blender -d) to print correct
subwindow id.
