- Made framework for 3d Transform Manipulators (widgets) - The Manipulators act like '2d buttons', by default with LeftMouse and with while-hold-move-release - Implemented now: Translation Widget, which allows: - four hotspots for axis grab or view-aligned grab - center defined by 'around' setting - SHIFT+LMB gives planar constraint on other 2 axes - works in Object mode and Edit mode (not posemode yet) Enable it with (temporal) icon in 3D header. All other 'normal' transforms then keeps working btw. On the todo for this widget: - choice for Global, Local or Normal orientation The way the widgets are going to work is in review still. Commit is also for Matt for his proposal/paper on topic. Some notes regarding this project; - no life updates (on mouse over) like 3DS, I think that's neurotic - on click, dominant axis changes to theme defined "Transform" color, other axes disappear, like maya - manipulater size is fixed preset, independent zoom. - manipulator follows selection, and is located based on 'around' mode Unresolved; - in maya, when you select 2 or more objects, the manipulator draws on the 'active' object, also interesting - what to do with G,R,S hotkeys? It could switch the manipulator "mode"... - header button/menu for manipulator mode?
Welcome to the fun world of open source. For instructions on building and installing Blender, please see the file named INSTALL. ---------------------.Blanguages and the .blender directory--------------------- The .blender directory holds various data files for Blender. In the 2.28a release those are the .Blanguages file containing a list of translations, the translations themselves and a default ttf font. Blender checks for the presence of this directory in several locations: - the current directory - your home directory - On OSX, the blender bundle is also checked - On Windows, the installation dir is checked. If you get a 'File ".Blanguages" not found' warning, try to copy the .blender dir to one of these locations (your home directory being recommended). -------------------------------------Links-------------------------------------- Getting Involved: http://www.blender.org/docs/get_involved.html Community: http://www.blender3d.org/Community/ Main blender development site: http://www.blender.org/ The Blender project homepage: http://projects.blender.org/projects/bf-blender/ Documentation: http://www.blender.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=documentation&file=index Bug tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=125&group_id=9&func=browse Feature request tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=128&group_id=9&func=browse
