For users that want the 2.7 LMB keymap behavior, this provides a way of
working without tools interfering. For RMB select this operator is quite
redundant with the Cursor tool, we may have to find a solution for that.
Note that we also might later add transform tweak to the transform tools,
when nothing is selected. But this is important for existing users who
preferred the existing workflow.
mesh_finalize_eval() may set ob->data to evaluated mesh, needs to be
done *after* call to BKE_mesh_texspace_copy_from_object(), else that one
is meaningless.
Related to investigations on T57985, but does not solve it at all. :(
Thinks whole bbox code needs a complete rewrite, one can see a lot of
old history in it, it has way too many functions doing
nearly-the-same-thing(c), it spreads in very inconsistent ways across a
lot of files, ... But have no time for this right now, and would not be
a good idea with Beta comming up close anyway.
So for now going the simple and (hopefully) sane & safe way: forbid
object-level functions to affect data-level bbox. Mesh and curve ones
would generate bbox in obdata instead of object, for some reason (all
other obdata types only use object's bbox ever). That may have been
working in old ages, but with CoW and threaded depsgraph this is just
calling for piles of issues.
Implements the first changes for T54115:
* Rename "User Preferences" window to "Settings" in the UI.
We'll likely put workspace settings in there, separate from the global
user settings. System settings should become separate from user
settings in future to allow settings for specific hardware.
* Add sidebar region for navigation (scrolls independently).
Addresses space problems, so we can add more categories as needed now.
* Increase size of Settings window to compensate new navigation bar.
* Group sections into User Preferences and System.
Icons for section groups by Andrzej Ambroz. Thanks!
* Bumps subversion for file compatibility.

I also added categories for future work, but commented them out.
We may also want to redesign contents of each section now.

If backface culling is off, the user obviously wants to paint on
back faces, so the normal angle cutoff designed to prevent painting
at glancing angles shouldn't do the culling as a side effect.
Bring back per-viewport localview. This is based on Blender 2.79.
We have a limit of 16 different local view viewports.
We are using both the numpad /, as well as the regular /.
Missing features:
* Hack to make sure lights are always visible.
* Make rendered mode with external engines to support this as well
(probably just need to support this in the RNA iterators).
* Support over 16 viewports by taking existing viewports out of local view.
The code can use a cleanup pass in the future to unify the test to see
if an object is visible (or we can use TESTBASE in more places).
Logic to update child windows on workspace changes should simply ignore
temporary child windows. Users opened those for a specific purpose (i.e. edit
user preferences or show render result). Blender should not come in and
repurpose it.
- Class constructors without body (only attribute initialisations)
can safely be kept in the class header files
- Constructor variables should be initialized in the order of their
definition in the header files
This change is also aimed to remove a couple of
build warnings from the linux builds.
Computing the shape of a B-Bone is a quite expensive operation, and
there are multiple constraints that can access this information in
a variety of useful ways. This means computing the shape once per
bone and saving it is good for performance.
Since the shape may depend on the position of up to two other bones,
often in a "cyclic" manner, this computation has to be a separate
node with its own dependencies.

Most important changes are in the Animation exporter and Animation Importer.
There is still some cleaning up to be done. But the Exporter/Importer basically
work within Blender 2.8
Some details:
User Interface:
The interface has been reorganized to look more like the FBX interface.
New options in user interface:
* keep_keyframes:
When sampling the distance between 2 keyframes is defined by
the sampling rate. Furthermore the keyframes defined in the
FCurves are not exported. However when this option is enabled
then also the defined keyframes will be added to the exported fcurves
* keep_smooth_curves:
When sampling we do not use FCurves. So we also have no Curve handles
for smooth exporting. However when this option is enabled, Blender
does its best to recreate the handles for export. This is a very
experimental feature and it is know to break when:
- the exported animated objects have parent inverse matrices
different from the unit matrix
- The exported objects have negative scaling
There may be many other situations when this feature breaks.
This needs to be further tested. It may be removed later or replaced
by something less wonky.
BlenderContext:
is a new class that contains the bridge to Blender. It contains
pointers to the current export/import context plus derived values
of Depsgraph, Scene, Main
Reporting:
I reorganized the output on the Blender Console to become more
informative and more readable
Preservation of Item names:
name attributes are now encoded with XML entities. This makes
sure that i can export/import names exactly defined in the tool.
This affects material names, bone names and object names.
Hierarchy export:
* Object and Bone Hierarchies are now exported correctly
by taking the Blender parent/child hierarchy into account
* Export also not selected intermediate objects
Problem:
When we export an Object Hierarchy, then we must export
all elements of the hierarchy to maintain the transforms. This
is especially important when exporting animated objects, because the
animation curves are exported as relative curves based on the
parent-child hierarchy. If an intermediate animated object is missing
then the exported animation breaks.
Solution:
If the "Selected" Optioon is enabled, then take care
to also export all objects which are not selected and hidden,
but which are parents of selected objects.
Node Based Material Importer (wip):
Added basic support for Materials with diffuse color and
diffuse textures. More properties (opacity, emission) need
changes in the used shader.
Note: Materials are all constructed by using the principled BSDF shader.
Animation Exporter:
* Massive optimization of the Animation Bake tool (Animation Sampler).
Instead of sampling each fcurve separately, i now sample all
exported fcurves simultaneously. So i avoid many (many!)
scene updates during animation export.
* Add support for Continuous Acceleration (Fcurve handles)
This allows us to create smoother FCurves during importing Collada
Animation curves. Possibly this should become an option ionstead of
a fixed import feature.
* Add support for sampling curves (to bake animations)
* The animation sampler now can be used for any animation curve.
Before the sampler only looked at curves which are supported by
Standard Collada 1.4. However the Collada exporter currently
ignores all animation curves which are not covered by the 1.4.1
Collada Standards. There is still some room for improvements
here (work in progres)
Known issues:
* Some exports do currently not work reliably, among those
are the camera animations, material animations and light animations
those animations will be added back next (work in progres)
* Exporting animation curves with keyframes (and tangents)
sometimes results in odd curves (when parent inverse matrix is involved)
This needs to be checked in more depth (probably it can not be solved).
* Export of "all animations in scene" is disabled because the
Collada Importer can not handle this reliably at the
moment (work in progres).
* Support for Animation Clip export
Added one extra level to the exported animations
such that now all scene animations are enclosed:
<Animation name="id_name(ob)_Action">
<Animation>...</Animation>
...
</Animation>
Animation Importer:
* Import of animations for objects with multiple materials
When importing multiple materials for one object,
the imported material animation curves have all been
assigned to the first material in the object.
Error handling (wip):
The Importer was a bit confused as it sometimes ignored fatal
parsing errors and continued to import. I did my best to
unconfuse it, but i believe that this needs to be tested more.
