Forward enum declaration is a bad idea, especially for C++ which requires
enum specification to dteermine which data type to use to store it.
Alternative would be to not use enum as an arument and pass it as int,
but actually would rather be strict on typing -- using explicit enum
as parameter type helps understanding the code and prevents possible
mistakes when using the function.
of the active object in the 3D view. This was due to sharing a global G.moving
flag to indicate that transform is active, now it's only set per transform data
type so different editors don't influence each other.
Update from a script I had in 2.4x, useful if you have mesh data which is _almost_ symmetrical,
there was no good way to automatically make the minor adjustments to make the mesh fully symmetrical.
Options for...
- symmetry-axis.
- blending between the +/- side.
- center mid verts.
Access from Mesh menu.
Was using edge-slide & remove-doubles but this was error prone since remove doubles could fail in some cases or find doubles where it shouldn't (with very small scale objects).
This gives more predictable behavior when the edges of a loop wouldnt slide (in that case they would just drag over to one of the sides with no user control)
and multiple edge loops work better too. eg:
- http://www.graphicall.org/ftp/ideasman42/edge_loop_del_update.png
* CHARTAB: not needed anymore with improved copy/paste support and text input.
* IDPOIN: replaced by SEARCH_MENU.
* ICONROW/ICONTEXTROW: replaced by RNA enums.
* NUMABS: can use min/max limits instead.
* BUT_TOGDUAL, TOG3, TOGR, SLI: not used in 2.5 interface.
- give feedback on how many mirror verts succeed/fail (for select mirror, shape key mirror, weight mirror)
... when a mirror failed it was confusing and not obvious what was going on.
- slight change to select mirror, now center vertices will remain selected.
- speedup to EDBM_verts_mirror_cache_begin, cache customdata layer offset.
- Ctrl+RMB only worked for edges & faces
- Menu item 'Select Shortest Path' only worked for vertices.
Now Ctrl+RMB works for vertices and the menu item works for verts/edges/faces (depending on the current selection).
add arguments to calculate normals when converting to bmesh:
BM_mesh_bm_from_me, DM_to_bmesh
This gives some speedup to undo (which didnt need to re-calculate vertex normals), and array modifier which doesnt need to calculate face normals at all
On file save the mesh gets loads from the editmesh but the derived mesh caches
wer not cleared. This usually happens through the depsgraph but it needs to be
done manually here. Most changes are some refactoring to deduplicate derived
mesh freeing code.
