Added new widget type in drawing and themes: "Box Backdrop", which is
in use by modifiers. Allows alpha blend, shade, etc.
It was using the general button theme for standard buttons still, to
indicate this change I made it a bit darker. Matt/Bill are invited to
tweak this default color :)
* Wrapped the constraint layout to python and deleted the corresponding C code.
ToDo: 4 constraints are still C code (IK, Script, Action and Rigid Body Joint)
* Some Constraint RNA fixes.
* Wrapped the Shrinkwrap Constraint in RNA.
Simplified and started from a clean slate, without much of
the hidden existing space data that was hanging around
in the old one.
One issue I found is that saving the startup file from
Blender 2.5 also saves the window size and location.
This means the version I just saved would open up
strangely on other screen sizes/setups. I added code to
reset this to default when loading it up from the version
compiled into the Blender binary, but perhaps Ton/
Brecht might want to check the diff.
* Added PROP_ID_REFCOUNT flag to control if refcounting should
be done on ID pointer properties. All ID pointers are refcounted,
by default, with the exception of Object, Scene and Text.
* Also made TextureFace image pointer editable, with the special
refcounting behavior.
* Added panels with dummy preview template.
* Added constraints panel for bones next to objects, though it
doesn't work that well yet, the operators and code need to be
changed so they don't assume it is one or the other in/out
of posemode.
* Added some graying out in the scene and world buttons.
* Added some properties of uiLayout that can be set. I've added
some API code for more than the two I've implementeds, so
ignore those for now.
* layout.active = False will gray out buttons inside a layout.
* layout.enabled = False will gray out and completely disable
the buttons inside a layout.
* Also some function renames.
* Automatically do us++ and us-- reference counting in ID pointer
set functions.
* Added an enum property callback to dynamically vary the list of
available items.
* Added some functions to do removes on pointers and collections
runtime defined for RNA and using ID properties.
* Constraints now have owner/target space wrapped, and most
pointers made editable. They can be ported to use python layouts.
* Also other pointers made editable that I think are see now with
the automatic reference counting.
Added a system for adding a "local" context in a UI layout.
This way you can define for example within a modifier panel
all operators to get the modifier in the context.
In the layout code:
uiLayoutSetContextPointer(layout, "modifier", &ptr)
layout.set_context_pointer("modifier", md)
In the operator:
ptr = CTX_data_pointer_get(C, "modifier")
md = context.modifier
Brecht, would you be able to have a look at this if you have time - I can't
figure out how to trigger the python file to register the header instead of
what's in outliner_header.c.
note: The new 'Toggle' options in the UI api should be
avoided for normal text buttons, and used sparingly
otherwise. We want to avoid having two inconsistent
appearances for the same type of buttons.
Separated out the code for defining the layout for the constraint targets since its practically the same (with a few minor variations) for all of the other constraints.
* Added Constraints template and Add Constraint operator.
* Added toggle=True/False parameter to uiItemR, to get a
toggle button (actual button) rather than an "option"
button (checkbox)
* Added OPTION/OPTIONN button type, to distinguish with
TOG/TOGN.
RNA:
* Make all modifier pointers editable, including correct updates.
* Added notifiers and updates to constraints.
* Fix a stack corruption, pointed out by Andrea, and potentially
causing crashes.
- file editors/space_image/image_panels.c -> image_buttons.c (renamed)
- file editors/interface/interface_templates.c added
Also added small fix for crash in filebrowser.
Found that subclassing an RNA struct (without even registering or instancing adds a reference to Py_None).
Unlikely a python bug, tested with py2.6 and 3.1
Still not happy with this in the long term but its less problematic then storing the context in pythons namespace which couldn't be set before importing modules.
This might fix a crash quite a few people have reported (but I cant reproduce).
First version of region-scaling. WIP commit, so bear with me a while!
- All fixed sized regions have a small 'drag' widget, on the left or top.
(not yet for free-sized regions, like 4-split).
- Mouse-over on widget changes cursor and allows drag.
- Click on widget hides/reveals.
- Fun for test; 3d view header, if high enough, draws more rows of
buttons when width is too small.
The WIP stuff;
- It doesn't save yet in files, using the "minsize" variable of region
definitions, also means other similar areas show same sizes now.
- Definitions for pref size, min/max will be added.
- Properties panel in Fcurve window draws widget on wrong place when
hidden (subdiv system needs tweak)
- Widgets don't draw perfect yet, also needs further tweaks.
But, in general it's quite fun and usable. :) Many variatians are possible,
like for real tabs, or little icons, or just click-drag on edge.
The reason to first try the widget/tab variation:
- it re-uses the "Area Action Zone" code, widgets for layouting Screens
- it's visible, hotkey-only options for screen layouts are not preferred.
- distinguish clearly area-edges from region-edges this way. Having the
cursor change shape on every edge (and block input) is probably annoying
too... but that can be tested.
Later more!
This includes a bunch of new object primitive icons
which would be great to get into the 'add object' menus,
they're not there yet. The specific lamp data type icons
are now used in the outliner though, which is very helpful.
Added subdivide operator and button for multires.
Since this seems to be the only modifier with an operator defined, I'm not sure if I put it in a good place or not, someone can check on this?
- Added new popup menu type, which can be used to pass on a
running operator too. Needed it for debug menu, allowing to
set variables outside of operator "first do then tweak" system. :)
void uiPupBlockOperator()
Don't forget to tell invoke() return that operator now runs modal!
- Test menu: alt+ctrl+d gives the G.rt debug value.
Values of 0-16 now can be used to shrink areas, stuff like this
then happens (rt==4):

Was looking at ways to visually distinguish areas and regions
better. Yes I know, cute rounded corners, etc. Just testing!
