changed teh way single images operate,
* they dont act like a sequence of 1 image - so you can drag and resize without the trouble of having teh center image.
* they draw without the single frame in them. and no 'gutter?' strip drawing.
* the start frame is always set to be where the handles start.
This is done in the transform and draw areas of the sequencer. added 2 functions,
fix_single_image_seq - moves the seq start without any visible change - so it will load in older blend's
check_single_image_seq - quick way to check for single image.
rewrote the part that deals with moving the strips on the X axis - only user visible functionality is that you can move the seq bounds in one step now.
internally added macro's to make dealing with sequence's less touble.

This adds an additional preference to the view and controls section, which uses the mouse's position as the centre of the zoom when zooming in the 3D View with Ctrl-MMB or the mouse wheel. It's very nice for big scenes, thanks Fahrezal!
A nice todo would be to add this for 2D views as well.
This patch adds prefetch buffering to the sequencer
(see the tracker for additional details:
https://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&aid=7307&group_id=9&atid=127
)
We create seperate render threads (currently one, because of the fact,
that sequence rendering modifies global structures...), that
render up to the defined userpref value "Prefetch frames" in advance.
(Pressing Alt-A will _first_ fill the buffer and then start playing.)
Bassam and I did some extensive testing, so it should work.
If you don't configure your number of prefetch frames, prefetching is disabled!
(Sane defaults... :)
Also: if the machine is definitely too slow and runs out of the prefetch
area, prefetching is disabled automatically and we are back to good old
frame skipping mode.
My Dual Athlon is able to handle 4 parallel DV streams at once (sometimes
a little bit choppy, but prefetching is never disabled!)
I fixed also a long standing bug in the audio code, that made playback run
backwards at the beginning...
As with the Action and NLA editors, I've refactored the transform code for the IPO editor to get rid of the special (and clunky) transform loop that had been created. The approach this time is closer to the one taken for the UV/Image editor.
What's New/Will-be-possible-in-the-future:
* Numeric input now works for the IPO editor
* Proportional Edit support for the IPO editor will eventually be added.
* Rotation (hopefully), once some hotkeys have been remapped
Known Problems:
* If a keyframe moves past neighbouring keyframes and the transform gets cancelled, it doesn't get restored correctly. This problem is quite icky to resolve (I've got a large hack for this, but that currently segfaults randomly).
* When scaling, the dashed-line (helpline) is drawn from the wrong starting co-ordinates. This does not affect the actual scaling though
* Trying to scale BezTriples with autohandles still doesn't work if either of the handles haven't been transformed yet. This behaviour was already present prior to this commit.
work for same results.
- UV Stitch with the V key was not working (as stated in the menu)
- Rotate UV's and Colors now have an option for CCW (was in the menu
but not implimented)
- Draw face dot in UV when in face mode
I've refactored the Action and NLA Editor Transform tools to use the Transform System instead of setting up their own transform loops. This should have happened ages ago, but no-one got around to doing so.
* There are still a few bugs left to iron out of a few features, but on the whole it should work as well as it used to. These are: the values which get displayed when working with NLA-scaled actions may not all be correct yet; and the Time-Slide tool in the Action Editor is currently kindof broken.
* One of the main benefits of this work, is that it is now possible to use Numeric Input during Transforms.
* Also, a bug that meant that it was not possible to negatively scale keyframes in the Action Editor has been resolved.
this bug is in 2.45 but can work around by setting it manually

changed how draw modes work - when displaying textured meshes in editmode, only draw selected edges when "Edge Draw" is not enabled. this makes it easy to see the texture/mapping without edges getting in the way.
This means editmode can draw like UV/Face mode did when "Draw Edges" was disabled.
Also made the active vert/edge/face color themeable, still need to set the default to somthing other then pink.
using the last selected face was almost good enough however when selecting verts and edges the last selected face would become inactive and the space image would flicker about too much.
The active face is used for getting the space image at the moment and keeps scripts that use this flag working also.
This has 2 commands to get and set, so the variable is not accessed directly.
all "UV Calculate" scripts work now
last commit crashed when in solid draw mode, it seems subsurf modifier is ignoring the displayMask since MTFACE is available. just made it do a null check for now.
uvcalc_follow_active_coords.py - should be done inC and put in the snap menu.
Changed how the sticky setting is stored in DNA - (as a char rather then 2 flags).
replaced the UV/FACE icon with another needed for the sticky menu.
removed 2 unused icons.
commented the UV transform panel since it only had 2 buttons in it.
depgraph update calls needed to be added to Ctrl+V/E/F menu's because some commands were crashing.
Bumped the subversion to 2, so the default aspect is set to 1:1.
Made "Repeat Image" option time image drawing and bail out early if its taking too long. (quater of a sec max) this could be avoided if the texture was drawn on a quad, but that wouldnt support other image draw options.
This is a good short term solution because it was possibly to lock up blender if you zoomed out a long way then enabled "Repeat Image".
added an optional view setting - Repeat/Tile image display so mapping with tiled textures you dont have to guess the locations or look in the 3d view to see what your mapping to.
copy and face menu was missing depgraph update calls.
changed how image replace works,
it used to load a new image and then assign that image to all faces in meshes active UV layer.
without replacing images in textures or images on inactive UV layers
now it simply changes the filename of the existing image and reloads the contense.
This is different in some other subtle ways,
1) replace used to use an existing image if it was available,
this could be confusing because when I replaced with an image I didnt like, but had alredy applied to objects in some other scene, replacing again would alter the images from models unintentionally.
2) since replace used to load a new image, it would load with a new name. at the moment the name is left unchanged,
This is better when dealing with linked libraries. because when replacing a images, anything linking to that texture gets broken. since imaged can get automatically named strings longer then its possible to enter into the user interface, you could wind up with some really annoying cases where it wasnt possible to type in the original name again.
Since this replace effects everything usiung the image, we may want to have 2 replace functions, "Replace Globaly" and "Replace in Mesh"
When mapping multiple images on 1 mesh, the UV coordinates often overlap and in many cases you only want to edit the uv coords for the faces applied to that image,
this is an option that only displays UV's for faces use the currently displayed image.
this is mainly because adding pose keyframes recalculates every handle so importing became increasingly slow.
added a 'fast' argument to insertkey that python api's insertPoseKey can make use of since it alredy accepts a 'fast' option.
The ~4450 frame, 31 bone BVH imports in ~108sec now
Seperated editmode switch statement in space.c's event handling,
if editmode is disabled, or the images is a render or composite, UV editing operations are ignored.
In previous releases it has given an annoying warning if selecting or scaling is attempted when out of UV/Face mode.
This is implimented by defining macro's that take the mode into account when get/set/checking the selection and that a face can be drawn.
When this is enabled, things work a bit differently
* all faces are drawn in the UV view (except hidden faces).
* selecting faces/verts in the UV window selects them on the mesh also and vice vercer.
* when EditMode (Face only) is enabled, selecting faces in the UV view is not sticky.
* hiding/(de)select all and invert selection simle call the editmesh functions.
* there is no way to select 1 uv corner of 1 face (because a mesh cannot have this as a valid selection) either all UV's that use a vert (sticky), or the whole face.
Now it is possible to do Copy+Paste in the Action Editor, like in the IPO Editor. There are two new buttons in the Action Editor header for this, using the familiar icons.
* To copy...
Select the keyframes you wish to copy, and the channels that they occur in (except for ShapeKey mode, where it is not possible to select channels). Click copy button.
* To paste...
Place the current frame where you want the first of the keyframes from the buffer is to be pasted. Select all channels you wish the keyframes to be pasted into. Click paste button.
Currently, keyframes are only pasted into 'compatible' curves (i.e. LocX keyframes can only go to LocX, and so on). This may change after user feedback, if this is found to be too restrictive.
== Code Changes ==
I've made a few changes which allow this code to be nicer.
* renamed insert_vert_ipo to insert_vert_icu, as that represents its actual purpose better (and changed all occurrences I could find)
* created a new function, insert_bezt_icu, which does the actual inserting of provided BezTriple data to a given IpoCurve
* recoded insert_vert_icu to use this new function, and also the IPO-Editor keyframe pasting (i.e. pasting in Editmode)
added a stap menu to the UV/Image window for snapping the selection and cursor.
reverted to drawing face dots in editmode when Limit Selection is enabled. even though its not needed for selection its consistent and dosnt look like modes are being changed.
* UV coord buttons overlapped others since merging uv/face and editmode.
* added some quad join and triangulate into the Ctrl+F face menu.
* active face cant be hidden anymore.
The WKey menu was way too big and not well organized, re-arranged keys like this.
Ctrl+V - Vert Menu (remove doubles, smooth...)
Ctrl+E - Edge Menu - left as is
Ctrl+F - Face Menu - (flip normals, shading, Rotate and Mirror UV's/Colors)
Wkey menu only has subdivide in it now.
filesel.c - only show the relative paths option if the file is saved, (flag on by default caused the image to silently fail loading on my system, and gave permission errors on a users), also removed a warning.
Added copy menu for editmode for copying from the active faces material, image, UV's vcols etc,
improved on the current vertex color copy by averaging the 4th color when copying color from a tri to a quad.
And added edge crease and length copy
cerrently verts dont have a copy menu but eventually copy weights would be good.
* Does not indicate that UV's exist, nor does it add UV's when used.
* Only accessible for texturepaint, vertexpaint and weightpaint from a button in the header (Paint Selection Mask)
* Not accessible from the mode menu, this is only an option that applies to paint modes.
This dosnt effect DNA, face select (G_FACESELECT) can be enabled at any time but is only used when paint modes are enabled.
Other changes
* UKey is uv unwrap in editmode, Ukey for undo was editmode only anyway.
* UVCalc in editmode adds a UV Layer if there is not one alredy.
* texture draw in editmode does not draw the face dots (they are get in the way of texturing)
* some missing updates were added.
* removed manipulator from when paint modes are enabled since the manipulator is not drawn in the 3d view.
Notes
* you cant edit UV's in the image window in "UV Face Select" mode. (removed UV from the name)
* going into Face Select mode no longer adds UV's and does not need UV's to work.
* The UV Calculation menu is now in editmode (Alt+W)
Todo..
* Image replace - partly broken in stable also.
* Rotate/Mirror UV/VCol are still only in Face Select mode.
* Hide/Reveal is not quite right, (issue with editmode flushing)
This patch, by Juho Vepsalainen (BeBraw), introduces subdivide multi functionality for armatures. It lets you specify the number of divisions that selected bones should be divided into.
I've slightly optimised the code a bit, though the change shouldn't make much of a difference. I've also fixed a minor bug in the menu highlighting, due to duplicate menu event-codes.
Initial commit of imagebrowser in trunk.
BIG COMMIT!
Main changes:
* completely reworked imasel space
* creation and storage of the preview images for materials, textures, world and lamp
* thumbnails of images and movie files when browsing in the file system
* loading previews from external .blend when linking or appending
* thumbnail caching according to the Thumbnail Managing Standard: http://jens.triq.net/thumbnail-spec/
* for now just kept imasel access mostly as old imgbrowser (CTRL+F4, CTRL+F1) a bit hidden still.
* filtering of file types (images, movies, .blend, py,...)
* preliminary managing of bookmarks ('B' button to add, XKEY while bookmark active to delete)
More detailed info which will be updated here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Elubie/PreviewImageBrowser
Places that need special review (and probably fixes):
* BLO_blendhandle_get_previews in readblenentry
* readfile.c: do_version and refactorings of do_library_append
* UI integration
TODO and known issues still:
* Accented characters do not display correctly with international fonts
* Crash was reported when browsing in directory with movie files
* Bookmark management still needs some UI work (second scrollbar?), feedback here is welcome!

=============================
- In textured drawmode it now draws the texture, with solid mode lighting.
- UVs and vertex colors for subsurf are not computed incremental yet, so
editing in textured drawmode then may not be as fast as the other modes.
Implementation Notes:
- Added textured drawing functions to the editmesh and subsurf derivedmeshes.
- Removed some unused, legacy subsurf code that directly used Mesh.
- Restructured texture drawing a bit to make it more clear and allow for
editmode drawing.
(Peach feature request)
Just a quickie feature I needed here at work- the previous linear
interpolation of tilt in curves can give nasty pinching problems
when trying to do flowing curves like a ribbon. This commit lets
you choose the interpolation type, between Linear, Cardinal, and
BSpline. The code was already set up for it pretty easily, mainly
needed to make the choice visible to the user.
Example:
http://mke3.net/blender/devel/etc/tilt_interp_types.png
Works on selected curve 'lines', menu in 'curve tools' panel in
edit mode.
Tooltip getStringSize and getBoundingBox correction
Not really any user-visible changes here, but a nice clean-up of
internal font drawing functions, in this case used in tooltips.
Thanks!
Added a new event code (B_WORLDPRV2) that forces an update of the world buttons-window preview AND the 3d-view, instead of having only one of the two getting updated (with REDRAWVIEW3D or REDRAWBUTSSHADING)
This commit fixes several issues related to using the Action Editor with Shapekeys. I've known about most of them for a while, so now's the time to fix that.
1) When the shapekey anim data for an object comes from an Action (key's IPO block is linked to the "Shape" action-channel), the names of the individual shapekeys is now shown. They will only do so if the Action Editor is not pinned though.
2) Slider limits for the case described above should now be sane again
3) "Add New" option from the popup menu in the Action Editor header will now convert shapekey animation data from IPO to Action if the action editor is displaying Shapekey data at the time. Many users have often found the old way of having to toggle the "running man" in the IPO-editor header, too clumsy and confusing.
Previously when deleting a scene, no checks were made to see if
any render layer nodes in other scenes were referencing them,
leaving them pointing to bad memory. Now, this checks all other
scenes' nodetrees and sets pointers to the to-be-deleted scene to
NULL, which gets taken care of elsewhere.
- Removing evil InitTransModeFlags (I would always forget to update that when adding new stuff). It's properly done in the per transform init now.
- Add toggleable mode for Shear (with MMB) for horizontal or vertical shear. Toggle shear mode also changes the input mode from vertical to horizontal and vice versa (it's intuitiver that way). (This was suggested in a really old patch but never implemented because I disliked adding transform specific handling in the main event switch).
- Add custom event handlers per transform (currently only used for Shear)
- Add custom data pointer and freeing flag (only (a)bused by Shear).
NOTE to Levi Schooley: Some stuff in there might be useful for you.
