Now scrollbars correctly hide and show, making space for the actual contents
in a region. It solves several old hacks, and puts view2d code a bit more
back in control as well.
Implementation notes:
- The view2d mask feature is working again
- The #define V2D_SCROLL_HORIZONTAL_HIDE means: "turn on hiding".
- Code for UI_view2d_region_reinit() is enforcing better standard view settings
But... two hack/patches needed to be added:
- Region panel drawing: if after generating the button panels it appears
a scroller hides or reveils, it calls all the generating code again.
(a simple scale doesn't work due to rounding differences in layout code)
- View2d code that maps 'tot' and 'cur' rects: if this code detects that
the mask changes, it calcs the map code again.
Also a bugfix (issue in 2.65)
- The left/bottom area split widget was drawing 1 pixel too large sometimes,
leaving bad trails on moving area dividers.
Notes and image:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.66/Usability
- now each editor has own settings for "show panel header" and
"show panel background", and colors+alpha for this.
- this setting used to be global for all editors, but it can conflict
with looks of specific editors.
- Now you can set for editors to show panels with a 100% transparent
tool/properties region.
Note: read XML theme files now might get an error, Campbell will fix.
[#33080] Backup icons - further integration
Contributed by Georg Kronthaler, many thanks!
* enables display of correct file icon on splash screen and in Open Recent menu
* exposes filter_backup in the python api
* enables setting BLENDERFILE_BACKUP as active filter in file browser from wm_operators.c (and from .blend in case this setting will be saved in the future)
* adds a comment to slightly misleading function name file_is_blend_backup()
* Updates icon for backup files to be more consistent with icon for .blend files
PATCH: [#32989] Activate backup files filter in File Browser
Contributed by Georg Kronthaler, many thanks!
(I just moved the icon to a different place reserved for file browser icons)
* enables the filtering of backup files in the file browser
* adds a 'filter backup files'-icon to the filter buttons
* adds new icons for backup files in list and thumbnail view
* enables file preview for the backup files
PATCH: [#32985] File Browser text file icon does not match text filter icon
Contributed by Georg Kronthaler, many thanks!
* set correct icon for text files and drag&drop
* remove duplicate if for filter_text
* fixed a couple of blanks at the end of line.
* Separated bookmarks managed by the OS (System Bookmarks) and bookmarks managed by Blender (Bookmarks).
* Added user pref to hide (or show) system bookmarks to allow users doing a video tutorial for example to hide their private system bookmarks
This feature should help especially MAC users who reported excessively long list of bookmarks which were added to Blender.
further fixes for 'RECENT' files panel in filebrowser:
* Also add the recent folder at the head if it is not yet in the list
* since we now insert at the head, we need to remove the skipping of the first entries if there are too many. Now correctly leaving the last elements unwritten.
* Another consequence of inserting at the head is that we don't want to reverse the list in the recent panel anymore - got rid of the corresponding code.
Replace old color pipeline which was supporting linear/sRGB color spaces
only with OpenColorIO-based pipeline.
This introduces two configurable color spaces:
- Input color space for images and movie clips. This space is used to convert
images/movies from color space in which file is saved to Blender's linear
space (for float images, byte images are not internally converted, only input
space is stored for such images and used later).
This setting could be found in image/clip data block settings.
- Display color space which defines space in which particular display is working.
This settings could be found in scene's Color Management panel.
When render result is being displayed on the screen, apart from converting image
to display space, some additional conversions could happen.
This conversions are:
- View, which defines tone curve applying before display transformation.
These are different ways to view the image on the same display device.
For example it could be used to emulate film view on sRGB display.
- Exposure affects on image exposure before tone map is applied.
- Gamma is post-display gamma correction, could be used to match particular
display gamma.
- RGB curves are user-defined curves which are applying before display
transformation, could be used for different purposes.
All this settings by default are only applying on render result and does not
affect on other images. If some particular image needs to be affected by this
transformation, "View as Render" setting of image data block should be set to
truth. Movie clips are always affected by all display transformations.
This commit also introduces configurable color space in which sequencer is
working. This setting could be found in scene's Color Management panel and
it should be used if such stuff as grading needs to be done in color space
different from sRGB (i.e. when Film view on sRGB display is use, using VD16
space as sequencer's internal space would make grading working in space
which is close to the space using for display).
Some technical notes:
- Image buffer's float buffer is now always in linear space, even if it was
created from 16bit byte images.
- Space of byte buffer is stored in image buffer's rect_colorspace property.
- Profile of image buffer was removed since it's not longer meaningful.
- OpenGL and GLSL is supposed to always work in sRGB space. It is possible
to support other spaces, but it's quite large project which isn't so
much important.
- Legacy Color Management option disabled is emulated by using None display.
It could have some regressions, but there's no clear way to avoid them.
- If OpenColorIO is disabled on build time, it should make blender behaving
in the same way as previous release with color management enabled.
