- Extrude Menu not longer restricted by selection mode, only selection totals (will show all possible options for the selection, regardless of selection mode)
- Missing operator descriptions
Ekey: Extrude Region
Based on selection totals:
Extrude region along normal if at least one face selected
Extrude vertex along normal if only one vertex selected (experimental)
Extrude edge on its plane if only one edge selected (experimental)
Extrude with no constraint axis otherwise
Shift-Ekey: Extrude Individual
Based on selection modes and selection totals
Individual Faces if face select and some faces are selected
Individual Edges if edge select and some edges are selected
Individual Vertice otherwise
Alt-Ekey: Extrude Menu (only shows valid options for selection mode and selection totals)
- Number of multicuts can now be set (only usable for multicut mode)
- Midpoint cutting is now done using shift-k + drag hotkey mapping
These were just minor properties changes, which shouldn't be too much of a hassle for BMesh merging.
Todo for Campbell:
- Make menu context sensitive
- Make menu automatically run the operator if there is only one option
Note: Saved configurations and keymaps with references to "Extrude and Move" operator needs to be updated to either call the menu or one of the new extrude macros.
I've removed editmesh altogether (other then scanfill, which is
seperate code that happens to reuse the editmesh structures).
The compatibility layer I had written for old editmesh tools
was more trouble then it was worth, though it did help in the
early stages of this project.
There's a fair amount of breakage, and there's bunches of tools
(mostly minor ones) I need to port over still. Biggest ones are
join triangles and loop to region, and spin/screw.
This probably isn't really testable, I'll hopefully have more
work done on this soon, but might not be before next week.
Blender too now! :)
** Drag works as follows:
- drag-able items are defined by the standard interface ui toolkit
- each button can get this feature, via uiButSetDragXXX(but, ...).
There are calls to define drag-able images, ID blocks, RNA paths,
file paths, and so on. By default you drag an icon, exceptionally
an ImBuf
- Drag items are registered centrally in the WM, it allows more drag
items simultaneous too, but not implemented
** Drop works as follows:
- On mouse release, and if drag items exist in the WM, it converts
the mouse event to an EVT_DROP type. This event then gets the full
drag info as customdata
- drop regions are defined with WM_dropbox_add(), similar to keymaps
you can make a "drop map" this way, which become 'drop map handlers'
in the queues.
- next to that the UI kit handles some common button types (like
accepting ID or names) to be catching a drop event too.
- Every "drop box" has two callbacks:
- poll() = check if the event drag data is relevant for this box
- copy() = fill in custom properties in the dropbox to initialize
an operator
- The dropbox handler then calls its standard Operator with its
dropbox properties.
** Currently implemented
Drag items:
- ID icons in browse buttons
- ID icons in context menu of properties region
- ID icons in outliner and rna viewer
- FileBrowser icons
- FileBrowser preview images
Drag-able icons are subtly visualized by making them brighter a bit
on mouse-over. In case the icon is a button or UI element too (most
cases), the drag-able feature will make the item react to
mouse-release instead of mouse-press.
Drop options:
- UI buttons: ID and text buttons (paste name)
- View3d: Object ID drop copies object
- View3d: Material ID drop assigns to object under cursor
- View3d: Image ID drop assigns to object UV texture under cursor
- Sequencer: Path drop will add either Image or Movie strip
- Image window: Path drop will open image
** Drag and drop Notes:
- Dropping into another Blender window (from same application) works
too. I've added code that passes on mousemoves and clicks to other
windows, without activating them though. This does make using multi-window
Blender a bit friendler.
- Dropping a file path to an image, is not the same as dropping an
Image ID... keep this in mind. Sequencer for example wants paths to
be dropped, textures in 3d window wants an Image ID.
- Although drop boxes could be defined via Python, I suggest they're
part of the UI and editor design (= how we want an editor to work), and
not default offered configurable like keymaps.
- At the moment only one item can be dragged at a time. This is for
several reasons.... For one, Blender doesn't have a well defined
uniform way to define "what is selected" (files, outliner items, etc).
Secondly there's potential conflicts on what todo when you drop mixed
drag sets on spots. All undefined stuff... nice for later.
- Example to bypass the above: a collection of images that form a strip,
should be represented in filewindow as a single sequence anyway.
This then will fit well and gets handled neatly by design.
- Another option to check is to allow multiple options per drop... it
could show the operator as a sort of menu, allowing arrow or scrollwheel
to choose. For time being I'd prefer to try to design a singular drop
though, just offer only one drop action per data type on given spots.
- What does work already, but a tad slow, is to use a function that
detects an object (type) under cursor, so a drag item's option can be
further refined (like drop object on object = parent). (disabled)
** More notes
- Added saving for Region layouts (like split points for toolbar)
- Label buttons now handle mouse over
- File list: added full path entry for drop feature.
- Filesel bugfix: wm_operator_exec() got called there and fully handled,
while WM event code tried same. Added new OPERATOR_HANDLED flag for this.
Maybe python needs it too?
- Cocoa: added window move event, so multi-win setups work OK (didnt save).
- Interface_handlers.c: removed win->active
- Severe area copy bug: area handlers were not set to NULL
- Filesel bugfix: next/prev folder list was not copied on area copies
** Leftover todos
- Cocoa windows seem to hang on cases still... needs check
- Cocoa 'draw overlap' swap doesn't work
- Cocoa window loses focus permanently on using Spotlight
(for these reasons, makefile building has Carbon as default atm)
- ListView templates in UI cannot become dragged yet, needs review...
it consists of two overlapping UI elements, preventing handling icon clicks.
- There's already Ghost library code to handle dropping from OS
into Blender window. I've noticed this code is unfinished for Macs, but
seems to be complete for Windows. Needs test... currently, an external
drop event will print in console when succesfully delivered to Blender's WM.
Select Sharp Edges was conflicting with it, fixed by removing it's shortcut,
- if people use it frequently, they can easy add it back with a RMB click.
The operator was already there and written, just didn't have a hotkey
assigned. Gave it an icky popup menu like object mode parent until we
get a nice non-blocking report viewer.
Most likely will not compile for others, I'd appreciate any build errors
and missing files reports (I can never seem to get everything committed
and all the build systems working without help).
Porting over the sculpt/multires tools was a breeze,
thanks goes to brecht for a design that didn't exclude
ngons and was easy to port.
Note that I've not tested externally-backed multires
file support yet. Also, I still need to write version
patch code for some cases.
Some notes:
* Like trunk, topological changes don't update multires right,
so e.g. subdivide will duplicate multires data on the new faces,
instead of subdividing it.
* If you set the debug value (ctrl-alt-d) to 1 it'll turn on
my experiments in speeding up sculpting on higher-res multires
meshes (but note it makes partial redraw not completely accurate).
* There's a bug where you have to go through editmode to get out
of sculpt mode, not sure if I inherited or created this myself.
* Moved 'change shortcut' (previously directly RMB on menu items) to a context-menu item, and added Remove Shortcut and Add Shortcut. This is all available now in a RMB context menu for operator buttons and menu entries.
* Renamed a bunch of key maps to be consistent with UI names, and human-readable. Since these key map names are now being directly used in the UI for people to find things, they should be understandable and in plain language.
This renaming may break some older saved key map setups - though previously saved .b25.blends should convert over ok. Exported .py files may need some find/replacing - in this commit check the changes in resources.c to see what's changed.
- ToolSettings had its id.data set to NULL when taken directly from the context (causing a crash in cases)
- menu for changing vert/edge/face selection now a python menu, removed operator.
- wm.context_set_value(), would really prefer not to have this since it evaluates the value as a python expression however there are no ways to define arrays in PyOperators
Takes into account the hierarchical structures of keymaps as well as wildcards (KM_ANY) in event definitions, user remaps (emulate numpad, action/select mouse buttons, ...) and event values that overlap (click, press and release)
For now, doesn't do anything other than print conflicts in the console.
As a result, I cleaned up a lot of keymaps that had double definitions, moved some keymap items in more appropriate places, fixed wrong definitions and removed kmi that were added for testing a long long time ago.
Out of all the remaining conflicts, after removing obvious non-issues, here's what remains: http://www.pasteall.org/9898
2. Add action parameter to Select_All_Toggle operators, rename to Select_All.
Options are Toggle (default), Select, Deselect, Invert (same as select swap). This makes it possible to map separate hotkeys for select all and deselect all.
NOTE for Aligorith: I didn't change animation operators for select_all which already had an Invert operator. These should be fixed eventually.
Leftmouse+Ctrl to extrude now mapped to Click instead of Release. Release was used to avoid conflict with lasso, but it isn't safe with modal operators that use Press to confirm (subsequent Release then extruded). Click is semantically closer to what we want here.
Now shares the same operators as the modifier buttons, works context-sensitive, and uses Python menu too.
* Cleanups/tweaks in 3D View vertex group menu
* Added Ctrl-G hotkey back for displaying a menu showing the available Vertex Group operators
* Added descriptions for a few Vertex Group operators. The difference between "normalize" and "clean" isn't that obvious from just reading the code, so perhaps some attention to this is needed.
This may result in cursor being grabbed twice (though we don't have any macro that can do this at the moment). If this is a problem, a check can be added.
Make macros work with more than one modal operator and mix of modal and invoke/exec
As a proof, brought back loopcut + edge slide in a single macro operator called Loopcut and Slide, replacing Loopcut as assigned to Ctrl-R.
* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:

- weight blending (Vertex specials menu), currently blends from surrounding unselected verts (nice for blending edge loops), but will eventually support face mask mode.
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.
