- Added GUI panel
- Selected text is copied to "find" field
- Option to search "all texts"
- Option to replace text
- Alt+F finds, Ctrl+Alt+F finds again (without UI)
- Alt+H replaces (UI), Ctrl+Alt+H replaces again (and undo works)
- Fixed: Find didn't push undos so cursor position was wrong
Based on user feedback, I've made some changes to the Grease Pencil UI (most notably in 'Time Editing' facilities).
* 'Edit Timing' button gone
* Pin button and '<Grease Pencil Data' string gone from Action Editor
* Action Editor in 'Grease Pencil' mode now displays all grease-pencil datablocks for current screen.
* AE: GP-Datablocks are drawn like 'groups', with an expand/collapse button to show/hide layers. Its name shows the type of space it comes from, and shows indicative status info (i.e. for 3d-view, it shows view-angle)
* Added refresh calls for action editor after editing relevant data.
I haven't tested all tools yet, but most should be stable.
Also, I've removed some unnecessary buttons, and added a few tooltips. There's also some experimental code to try to get clearer indication of 'active' layer.
- getExactTypeName()
- increment()
- decrement()
- isBegin()
- isEnd()
Contrary to previously stated, I am reverting back to implementing iterators in the (Python) API, for different reasons:
- it will make testing quicker to achieve, as I won't have to recode a big chunk of the original Python files
- it will be a base for API refactoring
- it won't prevent the use a list-based approach later (it is simple to get it from the Iterator)
Fixes: [#17315] Sequencer: after undo there's no active object
closes: [#17357] fix for bug #17315 - Sequencer: after undo there's no active object
(kiemdoder: thanks for the patch, had to do it in a little bit different way,
since sort_seq will kill your sort order idea...)
Before porting other classes, I'll resolve the List (Python) <=> Iterator (C++) correspondence problem by implementing a general class appropriately suited for the task.
The min/max parameters define a minimum/maximum angle
that the object axis can have with the reference
direction without being constrainted. The angle is
expressed in degree and is limited to 0-180 range.
The min/max parameters define a conical free zone
around the reference direction.
If the object axis is outside that free zone, the
actuator will tend to put it back using as a temporary
reference direction the vector that is exactly at
min or max degree of the reference direction
(depending if the axis angle is below the minimum
or above the maximum) and is located in the plane
formed by the axis and the reference direction.
With a low damping value, this is equivalent to
clamping the axis orientation within min/max degree
of the reference direction.
Backward compatibility corresponds to the absence
of free zone: min = max = 0.
All bones marked as no deform are repositioned after the retarget based on their "linked" bone (linked bone is constraint owner if control bone is a target, parent bone if not).

Grease Pencil is a tool which allows you to draw freehand in some views, allowing you to annotate/scribble over the contents of that view in either 2d or 3d. This facilitates many easier communication and planning abilities.
To use, simply enable it from the View menu (choose 'Grease Pencil...' and click 'Use Grease Pencil'). Then, click+drag using the left-mouse button and the shift-key held to draw a stroke.

I realized today that it will not be possible to implement getter/setter functionality easily for our Freestyle API. The reason is that Python does not support function overloading as-is. It is possible to 'fake' overloading by taking a general argument object and count the number of arguments in the object (rgbTuple_setCol in Blender's API is a good example of how to go about it).
For the time being, we'll get around that problem. The tangible effect of that constraint is that all API setter functions return a 'None' PyObject, instead of returning an integer status code. It is important to note that this problem is due to Freestyle's API being C++ in nature. Fortunately, this shouldn't really impact the usage of the API.
If the Blender Python group wants me to correct that, I'll be able to do it. It is just going to take me quite some time correcting it, writing support functions for methods having different types of arguments.
IMPORTANT: The setters functions' names were normalized due to constant confusion regarding capitalization. All the function names start with set... instead of Set.... This convention was changed all throughout Freestyle. To use Freestyle as an external renderer, the SWIG library MUST be regenerated.

Particle patch from Cédric Paille: bugfixes and child-particles export improvements for .getLoc(), part.getRot() part.getSize(), part.getAge() methods.
Also fix a bug with part.randemission getter (was using PART_BOIDS_2D instead of PART_TRAND), plus typos and duplications in API documentation.
First batch of optimizaton of the bullet adaptation layer in the BGE.
- remove circular motion state update.
- optimization of physic adaptation layer for bullet: bypass
unecessary conversion of rotation matrix to quaternion and back.
- remove double updates during object replication.
Text.setCursorPos(row, col) now pops the text into view if it is in the active window space. The outliner uses this to jump to any definition in a script; it is invoked with Ctrl+T.
Curve modifier on lattice suffered drawing updates, only when the system
was not animated though, missed depsgraph calls then.
Solved it by forcing lattice to always return displist for its vertices,
that's same as for how mesh/curve works now.
Specular render in Blender still had terminator problems... only the diffuse
part got "phong correction" applied. I didn't fix this before to not change
rendering results just before the release. Now there's time I hope?
Render results should only differ minimal, and only visible for low spec
hardness values (like 1 or 2)
*Made nearest surface also use "quad" bvh tree (instead of splitting quads in 2 bvh nodes).
Again that leaded to improvements in build and query time.
*BLI_bvhtree_find_nearest api is now following the same concept as BLI_bvhtree_ray_cast
removed code relative to bvhtree_from_mesh_tris.
Certain actuators hold a pointer to an objects: Property,
SceneCamera, AddObject, Camera, Parent, TractTo. When a
group is duplicated, the actuators that point to objects
within the group will be relinked to point to the
replicated objects and not to the original objects.
This helps to setup self-contained group with a camera
following a character for example.
This feature also works when adding a single object
(and all its children) with the AddObject actuator.
The second part of the patch extends the protection
against object deletion to all the actuators of the above
list (previously, only the TrackTo, AddObject and
Property actuators were protected). In case the target
object of these actuators is deleted, the BGE won't
crash.
