Removing old add tube operator and replacing it with add cylinder. The resulting operator is called add tube, since that's the name in the menu. Other people can debate about the name and change it later if they feel like it.
- invalid pointer was used for getting the sequencer length crashing blender or setting the length to negative values.
- printf_strip(seq) for debugging sequence strip locations
- Spelling: Cheet Sheet -> Cheat Sheet
Added a base-template for editing/creating RNA-Paths. This is now used for KeyingSets and Driver UI's, so that when the actual magic gets put in, it will work.
New current_orientation property that returns the current transform orientation data (if any)
New UI elements to rename and remove custom orientation (visible only when needed)
This commit implements more of the CopyPose capabilities in
Blender. It is now possible to select which axis will be
constrained in position and orientation to obtain
interesting effects. Another option selects if the axis
are relative to the end effector or to the target.
Unlocking a position axis means that the coordinate along
this axis is not constrained and can take any value.
Unlocking the Y axis of the End Effector produces an
'aiming' effect: the end effector is oriented towards
the target but without stretching.
Unlocking a rotation axis means that the end effector can
freely rotation along that axis. Unlocking the Y axis
produces a 'tangent' effect: the end effector aligns with
the Y axis of the target but can rotate along that axis.
A 'floor' effect is possible if the position Z axis of the
target is unlocked. More effects are possible an can be
combined.
Added new template for choosing to use any type of ID-block. The first combo box allows you to choose the type of ID-block that gets used, and the second box allows you to choose the ID-block of the type specified by the first one.
This is currently used for setting the ID-block used for Keying Sets, but the main user for this was intended to be the Drivers UI. However, I still need to clear up a few button-event issues there before I can port this over.
Additional Bugfixes:
* Adding new Keying Set path was setting the active path wrong, meaning that you had to click on the list to get some response after adding
* Bone Groups list was being drawn too long by default (when empty)
Since the deep shadow buffer summer of code project is not actively under
development anymore, I decided to build my own DSM implementation from
scratch, based on reusing as much existing shadow buffer code as possible.
It's not very advanced, but implements the basic algorithm. Just enough so
we can do shading tests with it, optimizations and other improvements can
be done later.
Supported:
* Classical shadow buffer options: filter, soft, bias, ..
* Multiple sample buffers, merged into one.
* Halfway trick to support lower bias.
* Compression with user defined threshold.
* Non-textured alpha transparency, using Casting Alpha value.
* Strand render.
Not Supported:
* Tiling disk cache, so can use a lot of memory.
* Per part rendering for lower memory usage during creation.
* Colored shadow.
* Textured color/alpha shadow.
* Mipmaps for faster filtering.
* Volume shadows.
Usage Hints:
* Use sample buffers + smaller size rather than large size.
* For example 512 size x 9 sample buffers instead of 2048 x 1.
* Compression threshold 0.05 works, but is on the conservative side.
