- more api like functions for adding movie, sound & images (easier to use from pyrna api)
- operators share more settings
- renamed get_last_seq() to active_seq_get() - same for set.
- bpy is now a python package, this makes it easier to add utility modules and adjust python startup which was previously using verbose Py/C api. Access should not be any slower since both C and Python modules use dictionary access.
- loop over scripts and load via python (currently F8 reload isnt working, will add back shortly)
- the C module is kept but renamed to _bpy and not meant for direct access from anything but the bpy package.
- bpy_types.py is an exception since it runs before the bpy package is initialized.
* Updating dependencies for drivers now clears the disabled status of the relevant Driver FCurve too
* Changing the type of ID-block used for Driver Targets and Keying Set Paths will now clear the pointer to the ID-block if it is of the wrong type.
It's still very irritating that the active bone pointer doesn't get cleared when this happens, but at least it's more consistent with how Objects work...
With help from Patch [#19757] by Michael Jefferies.
-------------
Also, following talks with Matt and Campbell, make pressing Ctrl in transform toggle snap/gears instead of having to hold it down.
Important note: holding it down will no longer work correctly because of key repeats (it will toggle it constantly). It's possible to edit the modal keymap to bring back the old behavior (perhaps it should even be default).
For some reason, adding a keymap entry with KM_SHIFT didn't work, had to use KM_ANY and passthrough invalid modifiers.
Left a note to investigate later.
* Renamed "Keep Max Length" to "Y Scaling" which has the opposite meaning
* Improved the way that Y-Scaling off behaves. Most of the time, bones that do not fit on the curve are now "blended off" their default rotations instead of being scaled to zero.
* Added option to offset an entire chain by moving the root bone of the chain. This is named "Chain Offset"
adjust epsilon value for isect_ray_tri_v3()
from the comment...
/* note: these values were 0.000001 in 2.4x but for projection snapping on
* a human head (1BU==1m), subsurf level 2, this gave many errors */
- 0.000001 -> 0.00000001
Added a group example
C = bpy.context
ob = C.active_object
bpy.data.groups[0].objects.add(ob)
- add_to_group and rem_from_group now take optional scene and base flags and deal with updating the object & base flags
- operators that add objects to groups were setting ob->recalc= OB_RECALC_OB; looks like its not needed.
- previously add() ignored python args, now add and remove are called like any other FunctionRNA from python.
- made the pyrna api use tp_getset's for collestions active/add()/remove()
* Added 'active node' panel for the Nodes Editor. This panel, in the NKEY region, shows the settings for the active node. Included in this panel is a field used for editing the unique-name of the node too.
* Fixed a number of uninitialised vars warnings that I missed in previous commit...
Now the rna path to nodes happens via the node name, which is ensured to be unique via RNA.
As part of this, the node->username string has been removed, upon renaming the node itself it takes care of making sure it's unique (like bones, constraints, etc). There's currently no interactive rename tool, but you can do it via the datablocks editor.
- plus a few notifier tweaks, using the newer NC_NODE notifier to refresh graph editor etc.
[#19854] [bugfix] Fix for broken Rasterizer mouse functions
---
This patch fixes the embedded player's ability to control the mouse. For example, hiding and unhiding the mouse cursor
did not work in 2.5, nor could the mouse's position be controlled. This was because these parts still needed to be ported
to 2.5 window manager code.
This commit restores Grease Pencil functionality for the Nodes Editor. Grease Pencil data is now stored at the NodeTree level, which means that annotations remain with the NodeTree they were made for.
Possible TODO's:
* In future, it may be worth investigating attaching Grease Pencil data to individual nodes, to allow annotations to stay attached to nodes as they are moved
* Include the settings for the 'active node' in a panel in the new NKEY region where the Grease Pencil buttons appear.
Now when nodes are keyed, they will show up in the dopesheet/graph editor/etc in a new 'Nodetree' category.
Still a major problem left, nodes need unique names in order for the rna paths to hold animation data properly...
This allows you to set and animate the values of socket inputs and outputs, for example the value node.
It's also a step on the way to manipulating node trees via python (i.e. linking node sockets to each other).
This fixes [#19841] RGB Node in compositor not working
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:
http://www.pasteall.org/9052/python
this way the UI scripts are less likely to fail silently and wont let typos work ok.
also allow subclassing of the context, added a copy function,
bpy.context.copy(), returns the context as a python dict to be modified and used in python.
This also showed up an invalid brush member in the screen context.
The timestep used for the playback timer now gets adjusted accordingly when the frames-per-second setting gets changed during playback (i.e. in the "animation_step" operator). This is not as ideal as only updating this when the framerate setting is changed, but using an appropriate update function for this failed miserably.
