The buttons for "hiding" (collapsing) a node, hiding unlinked sockets, additional options, the preview and for opening a node group were all using a custom mouse test function, which was broken. They now use actual buttons instead of just displaying icons. Before executing the respective operators the button's node has to be selected and activated, so the buttons use an intermediate handle function, which selects the node and then calls the operator.
Previous state:
Right now, there are "memories" of the "old" (less than a month!) translation way:
* A few remaining calls to BLF_gettext() (only UI_translate_do_iface and UI_translate_do_tooltip should be used).
* The _() macro still also calls BLF_gettext()!
New state:
Here are the changes made by the patch:
* Removing the no more needed _() macro.
* Removing most N_() and _() calls, only keeping the few needed ones (i.e. strings that are in no other way findable by xgettext and/or update_msg script).
* Defining in UI_interface.h IFACE_() and TIP_() macros (resp. for UI_translate_do_iface and UI_translate_do_tooltip).
* Replacing all calls to BLF_gettext by relevant IFACE_ or TIP_ one.
* Replacing all calls to UI_translate_do_iface by IFACE_.
* Replacing all calls to UI_translate_do_tooltip by TIP_.
All this somewhat clarifies and simplifies the code.
On the bf-translations scripts side, this only implies adding IFACE_ and TIP_ as detection markers for xgettext.
It also allows to reduce POTFILES.in quite notably (only 20 files remaining in it).

- Make gettext stuff draw-time. so switching between languages
can happens without restart now.
- Added option to translate visible interface (menus, buttons, labels)
and tooltips. Now it's possible to have english UI and localized tooltips.
- Clean-up sources, do not use gettext stuff for things which can be
collected with RNA.
- Fix issues with windows 64bit and ru_RU locale on my desktop
(it was codepage issue).
- Added operator "Get Messages" which generates new text block with
with all strings collected from RNA.
- Changed script for updating blender.pot so now it appends
messages collected from rna to automatically gathered messages.
To update .pot you have to re-generate messages.txt using "Get Messages"
operator and then run update_pot script.
- Clean up old translation stuff which wasn't used and most probably
wouldn't be used.
- Return back "International Fonts" option, so if it's disabled, no
gettext lookups happens on draw.
- Merged read_homefile function back. No need in splitting it.
TODO:
- Custom fonts and font size.
Current font isn't nice at least for russian locale, it's
difficult to read it.
- Put references to messages.txt so gettext can merge translation when
name/description of some property changes.
- 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
Top bar: Add -> Mesh -> UV Sphere + Enter crashed.
It didn't crash with leftmouse, but that was coincidentally working.
Menus were freeing modal handlers in Window, while handlers were still
in use. Fix provides to tag handlers for being freed now.
Will add on my attention list for more elaborate checking work here, for
upcoming 2.57a I rather stick to minimal change in code here.
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.

This patch switches the screen real-estate given to the "open/close"
and "drag" zones for panels.
- Now, the entire header is used for resizing (open/close) panels
instead of just the triangle widget being used for this. This makes it
a larger target for clicking on, making it easier to do so (Fitt's Law
in action!)
- Dragging panels now is relegated to the "grabber" zone on the top-
right corner only now. This reflects the lesser importance of panel
reordering in the panel designs now over being able to open/close
them.
+ changed lines connecting nodes:
they now use a linewidth of 1.5px for the light foreground and 4px for the dark background.
this should fix node-lines not being visible on almost black or all white backdrops.
+ muted nodes now also show a red tinted header if they are hidden (collapsed)
+ both active and selected nodes show a (now properly antialiased) highlighting frame
+ fixed a small error in dropshadow code resulting in a gap at borders
+ fixed a tiny error for the collapsing indicators (triangles) - they were not symmetrical.
Ton will add proper theme colors for the node-editor in the coming days.
- made interface, windowmanager, readfile build without unused warnings.
- re-arranged CMake's source/blender build order so less changed libs are build later, eg: IK, avi
- moved files in proper directories and adapted paths where needed
- deleted doc/oldbugs.txt (asked confirmation to jesterking a week ago in irc)
- still working on doxygen files, for now I'll leave them in doc/
- NOTE: while checking if other files were referring to these files, I noted that
"GPL-license.txt" is also used in the files below:
- release/windows/installer/00.sconsblender.nsi
- release/windows/specific.sh
but these files should't be affected by this commit, but please check :)
This prevents header-less panels (such as object name in object properties) from being re-sorted
when dragging other panels.
Also minor tweak, make the 'a' key shortcut to open and close panels only work with there are no
other modifier keys (like alt).
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
