Thanks to Brecht for the reviews. :)
This commit adds a show/hide extension below each uiList, containing by default an option to filter and/or reorder items by name (and to reverse those filtering and reordering).
Each derived uiList class in Python can define more specific filtering by implementing callbacks: the draw_filter() function to draw options in UI, and the filter_items() function to effectively filter/reorder items.
Note: the advanced options for vgroups shown as "proof od concept" in patches do not go in trunk for now, we have to find a better way to get those vgroups info for UI code, we can't afford to loop over each vertex here!
And doc (release notes and uiList example) is still to be updated, will do this in next days.
this was only done in some cases before and it was possible to enable weightpaint+sculpt at the same time when enabling sculpt by directly running the mode switching operator.
add generic function to ensure a compatible mode before entering the new mode (added to each operators exec function)
- remove delete-all option (users can just select all and delete as with all other modes).
- remove CALLOC_STRUCT_N macro.
- CURVE_OT_delete define a dynamic enum rather then a custom invoke menu function.
Note that, even though not officialy supporting non-UI_UNIT_Y height items (other point like scrollbar size would faill too), we try to maintain a not-that-bad behavior in this case, which implies a bit of black magic (esp. as our ref point is the bottom of the list, which moves when it is resized :/)...
* Added a new sky model by Hosek and Wilkie: "An Analytic Model for Full Spectral Sky-Dome Radiance" http://cgg.mff.cuni.cz/projects/SkylightModelling/
Example render:
http://archive.dingto.org/2013/blender/code/new_sky_model.png
Documentation:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/Nodes/Textures#Sky_Texture
Details:
* User can choose between the older Preetham and the new Hosek / Wilkie model via a dropdown. For older files, backwards compatibility is preserved. When we add a new Sky texture, it defaults to the new model though.
* For the new model, you can specify the ground albedo (see documentation for details).
* Turbidity now has a UI soft range between 1 and 10, higher values (up to 30) are still possible, but can result in weird colors or black.
* Removed the limitation of 1 sky texture per SVM stack. (Patch by Lukas Tönne, thanks!)
Thanks to Brecht for code review and some help!
This is part of my GSoC 2013 project, SVN merge of r59214, r59220, r59251 and r59601.
The material button displayed in the node editor header is the "active_material" of the active object. When pinning the node tree this should ideally be the pinned node tree's material slot, but this
would require adding even more confusing info in SpaceNode to find the correct slot in addition to the id_from datablock. Solution for now is to just disable these buttons when pinning to communicate
better.
The lookupstring function for node sockets and node tree interface items was using the identifier strings of bNodeSocket. This would ensure uniqueness, but doesn't work nicely because the identifier is
not the RNA name property and differs for node groups (with regular nodes it only differs if socket names are duplicate).
Now removed the specialized callbacks, so that inputs/outputs collections simply use the name property. In cases where socket names are duplicate (e.g. math node "Value" + "Value") only the first socket
is returned, but in such cases access by index is the preferred method anyway.
The addons panel draw function calls addon_utils.modules() which in turn retrieves a list of fake modules from the script paths every time. This can become costly when network paths are included for
addons. Solution is to put the scanning process into a dedicated "refresh" function and disable it in frequently called draw and filter functions, i.e. in these cases the cached addons_fake_modules list
will be used instead.
Note that this may lead to invalid addon lists if script paths are changed (which is not working 100% without restart anyway according to Campbell). For this there is now a "Refresh" operator button in
the addons preferences. If necessary and feasible such forced refreshes can be added later too.
Many thanks to Brecht for the review!
* You can now drag-resize uiLists (in default or grid layouts).
** Note about "default" size: when you drag below minimal size of the uiList, it will automatically reset to automatic sizing (i.e. size between rows and maxrows, depending on the number of items to show). This often means (e.g. in Materials list with many mat slots) that the list will grow again to maxrows!
* Grid uiLists now have a customizable number of columns (previously it was a fixed value of 9), and they will respect the rows/maxrows settings as well (i.e. show a scrollbar when needed), instead of growing indefinitly!
