added _prop suffix to ui functions which take a prop rather then a propname, may change this later since its not that nice but for gsoc branches this keeps existing UI functions working the same.
there is a minor problem with this commit:
0.00001 --> 0.00001 # good
0.000015 --> 0.000015 # good
0.0000199 --> 0.00002 # ok
0.00002 --> 0.000020 # wrong, has trailing 0
Tried to fix this but the case is hard to check for without more calculations which Id like to avoid.
- fix: user pref, window title was reset to 'Blender' on tab usage
- Undo history menu back:
- name "Undo History"
- hotkey alt+ctrl+z (alt+apple+z for mac)
- works like 2.4x, only for global undo, editmode and particle edit.
- Menu scroll
- for small windows or screens, popup menus now allow to display
all items, using internal scrolling
- works with a timer, scrolling 10 items per second when mouse
is over the top or bottom arrow
- if menu is too big to display, it now draws to top or bottom,
based on largest available space.
- also works for hotkey driven pop up menus.
- User pref "DPI" follows widget/layout size
- widgets & headers now become bigger and smaller, to match
'dpi' font sizes. Works well to match UI to monitor size.
- note that icons can get fuzzy, we need better mipmaps for it
* they were too slow for dynamic python enums, calling the callback
to list the items for each button, to get a tooltip
* enum tooltips sometimes were showing the same description twice
- ghost C api, BLI_get_folder_version() could assign garbage values.
- pointcache ptcache_find_frames_around() had a superfluous NULL check which would have crashed anyway if actually NULL.
Now this gives the line number of the scripts thats running, eg:
uiItemFullO: unknown operator 'some.operator'
/c/bin/2.56/scripts/startup/bl_ui/space_view3d_toolbar.py:73
- Linking logic buttons had draw glitch, caused by reading
data from free'd buttons
- Doing an undo with mouse-over Curve Widget caused crash or
corruption.
Both related to code that tries to keep the "active" button in
memory. On each redraw of UI, buttons are re-created, which makes
it all tricky... hope we're safer now.
Also: added back undo pushes on adding links in logic editor.
* In windows the old button was tested to be equal to the new button (ui_but_equals_old()) even if their optype wasn't the same. Adding a check for optypes fixes all three reported issues.
* For some strange reason this didn't happen on other platforms.
popup appears, saving an extra click
I've separated out the "XXX"-'d event-adding-hack section from the
search-menu code into a separate API function (as recommended there).
This call is used to make sure that textboxes in popups can get
activated by default, to allow typing immediately.
Very nasty UI code issue: since every button is re-defined on a
redraw, having UI redraws while using a button was not possible.
This was solved long ago by copying over data from previous button.
However, this fails when buttons have callbacks with its own (or
a parent button) pointer.
This bug reporter found crashes in draw-overlap UI mode, this
draws entire UI over for every menu redraws, making previous button
pointers invalid. (for triple buffer, the UI is not redrawn, only
the menus).
In general: all systems falling back to old swapbuffers would have
suffered some instability because of this.
Fix is that now the old button gets lifted out from the previous
list and inserted in the new list. Works fine, but needs some tests!
Also in this commit: TIFF endian switching not needed for 16 bits tiff.
- fix mistake with grease pencil UI (&& was intended but & used).
- use (void) rather then () across _all_ blenders code.
- a few minor edits, don't shadow stack variables in roll calculation & avoid running memset() for VBO vertex map.
most local modifier,GPU,ImBuf and Interface functions are now static.
also fixed an error were the fluid modifier definition and the header didnt have the same number of args.
Fixed one of oldest annoyances in Blender: the text input button!
It always behaved stupid when you had clipped text in a button.
Now while using arrows the cursor will move as expected, and only
internally shift contents when cursor reaches edge of button.
Report was that move-to-layer menu failed. The real cause was
more complex; had to dive deep in the dungeons of the interface
code that handled undos and operators. Found several issues:
- popup menus (like redo operator, color picker) executed again
on a mouse-exit
- far too many buttons were sending undo pushes; even worse, in
the operator redo-panel each button action was pushed twice
- in case operator redo-buttons have own callbacks (like layer
buttons) the redo wasn't working
- layerbutton menu was called without creating a proper undo/redo
case
Things should all work smoother now!
On todo:
- better definition and handling of all versions for operator menus
(four types now, not fun)
also: make operator "do" menu, which on first action does operator
and then switches to redo-ing
- bring back Undo menu, to list the undo stack and jump in it.
