out moving transparent pixels by checking for alpha>0.95, now it also
checks the solid layer (if present), and if there's no solid face in a
pixel, the speed vector gets also added and used for transparent pixels.
This solves the 'ugly' hard outlines for vectorblur of moving hair.

now that the command to put the object files into an archive is
exceeding 20k characters, which is a problem for some operating systems.
To avoid this, this modification causes make to change directories before
archiving, to avoid having to specify full file paths to the files
being archived.
If this causes problems on some systems, let me know and I'll find an
alternative.
filtersizes (below 2 pixels). This because Bokeh actually does 2 peaks...

I've added some fixes in the filter calculus though, and made sure that
on size 1 at least the image gets copied straight away.
Also fixed error, Bokeh shifted image 1 pixel up.
Todo; make filters become real floats in size...
to my previous commit (whoops). The second part covers the changes I
have made to the code since then (all related to merge tools code).]
# Part One: Complete Log for Commit from 2/13/06
-> Upgraded merge tools.
The new merge tools add several options to blenders Merge submenu,
accessed via the WKEY whilst in Editmode for meshes. The new options
depend on current mode:
- Vertex mode: "At First" and "At Last"
When choosing "At First" or "At last" it will merge all selected
vertices at the first or last selected vertex.
(Note: Blender now keeps track of the last and first verts selected in
editMode (G.editMesh->lastvert and G.editMesh->firstvert
pointers. This meant additions were made to the undomesh code in
editmesh.c as well).
- Edge mode: "Collapse Edges"
When choosing this option, Blender examines the current set of
selected edges and groups them according whether or not they are
topologically connected. It then goes through each group and merges
them one by one to a single point.
- Face Mode: "Collapse Faces"
Works the same as "Collapse Edges", only works on groups of
topologically connected faces.
-> Inclusive selection mode conversion.
This feature extends the ability of blenders selection mode
conversions. Currently when you change selection modes from a "lower
order" mode to a "higher order" one (vertex->edge, vertex->face or
edge->face) blender only selects elements in the new mode whose
elements were completely selected in the previous mode.
This patch does not change blenders default behavior but offers
implicit selection mode conversion as an alternative. To access it,
hold either the left or right CTRL keys and click on a selection mode
in the view 3d selection mode header buttons. This can be accessed via
the CTRL-TAB selection mode switching as well, simply hold CTRL while
clicking the mode you want or entering its number on the keypad.
In some programs, such as Wings and Mirai, it has been demonstrated
that it can also be very useful to exploit selection mode switching to
implicitly select previously unselected elements as well. For instance
switching selection mode from vertex to edges will select all edges
currently associated with the currently selected vertices. The same
behavior is applied to switching between vertex->face and
edge->face. By exploiting this sort of selection conversion complex
selection sets can be built quicker.
Furthermore I modified blenders UndoMesh code to make selection mode
switching "undo coherent". Aside from its relevance to inclusive
selection mode conversion, this really counts as a "bug" in my
mind. Previously selection mode switch could cause the selection state
of the mesh to be invalid when certain modeling operations were
undone. An example of this would be "edge subdivide-> switch to face
mode-> undo"; you end up with edges selected while still in face mode!
# Part Two: Log for this Commit
-> Code Cleanup
As per Ton's request I reformatted all my code, changed variable names
and eliminated my use of "LinkNode" structs and replaced them with
"ListBase" instead. There should be no warnings while compiling now
either.
-> Remove doubles bug
Fixed small problem in removedoublesflag() in editmesh_tools.c that
caused editface structs to get their UV's scrambled. Vertex colors
might not be safe though? Need to investigate later.
-> Small bug in in the the code for merge last/first
It could cause a crash when exiting editmode, switching meshes, then
entering editmode again. "lastvert" and "firstvert" pointers are now
set to NULL whenever exiting editmode now (see load_editmesh() in
editmesh.c). I will find a better solution to this *soon*...
-> All merge tools now UV aware (optional)
The default behavior is to leave UVs alone, but if you hold CTRL while
clicking on the menu entry, UV's are merged. This works fine in most
situations, although some investigation into how to best handle
merging of UVs at the border of UV islands needs to be done.
This last item brings up a point about the current state of the
interface: several functions accessed through the WKEY menu now use
the CTRL modifier to change how they behave (This convention has been
in place for a while, see subdivide for example). Unfortunately there
is no way to communicate the way modifier keys change the behavior of
certain functions to the user. This makes such options invisible for
all intents and purposes...
object center, it doesn't generate displaylist (or derivedmesh). This
error showed especially on loading files, and you had to advance frame,
zoom out or press Numpad-9 to see stuff.
* when WITH_BF_STATICOPENGL=1 on Linux Blender will be statically linked
against GL libraries. NOTE: I used values that worked on my machine -
platform managers and people who have better knowledge about this, please
modify config/linux2-config.py accordingly.
- Links now can be made between any socket type. The nodes recognize amount
of channels, and will convert types if needed.
Conversions from RGBA to 1 channel will use the 'RGB to BW' formula.
Also note that conversions only happen when required. So you can blur an
alpha channel, filter it, and put this in a 1-channel socket without any
conversion to happen, which saves memory & cpu time.

The blur nodes don't accept Vector input yet... But filter does.
- RGB Curve Nodes now have the premultiply option resored, 2 x faster
- Fixed some confusing code in Node Group handling... much stabler now
Bugfix, Wrongly waited colinear test that caused quads with co-linear edges to be made.
Bugfix, Use active object even if unselected.
Optimize, Skip further tests if face pair is above the quad error limit.
Optimize, Faster edge/Face user dict creation ~10%
Feature: Options to ignore VCols and UV's as delimetres.
At long last!
This new constraint is pretty simple. Following in the footsteps of such giants as Copy Loc and Copy Rot, it lets you constrain the size of an object/bone to another object/bone, with per axis restrictions.
- Texture Node
Allows to use any Blender Texture block as input for masks or color
blending. The texture node doesn't generate a real image, but adjusts to
the size as mapped with during an operation. So it won't work to use it
as Image input for Blur or Filter nodes.
Note; the Vector inputs for this node only work with manual input now!
- Translation Node
Give any image an offset in X or Y direction
For the Texture node to work, I needed to move the central 'pixel
processor' up one level... to allow differently sized images to merge
and allow 'procedural images' without size.
