* Fractional frames support has been changed to use a new var, scene->r.subframe.
This is a 0.0-1.0 float representing a subframe interval, used in generating a final float
frame number to evaluate animation system etc.
* Changed frame_to_float() and some instances of bsystem_time() into a convenience function:
float BKE_curframe(scene) which retrieves the floating point current frame, after subframe
and frame length corrections.
* Removed blur_offs and field_offs globals. These are now stored in render, used to
generate a scene->r.subframe before render database processing.
Early when implementing the Graph Editor in 2.5, a key complaint that was levelled at the old 'IPO Editor' was that it was a constant annoyance that adjacent handles were getting selected in addition to the keyframes, when only the keyframes were intended. I solved this by making this default to only selecting keyframes and ignoring the handles, but this means that it isn't possible to batch move several handles at once.
I've now improved this situation by adding an option to the border select operator (involved using Ctrl-B instead of B) which makes the handles get treated separately (as if they were separate verts, as in 2.4x). The default is still to only select keyframes, to have consistency with the DopeSheet...
Also performed some more renaming work in the code...
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
* Copy/Paste operators for F-Modifiers
Available in Graph and NLA Editors. Use the Copy/Paste buttons beside the 'Add Modifier' buttons.
Copy copies all the modifiers of the ACTIVE F-Curve or Strip depending on the editor.
Paste pastes modifiers from the buffer to all the selected F-Curves or Strips, adding the new modifiers to the ends of each list.
* 'Stepped Interpolation' F-Modifier
This modifier holds each interpolated value from the F-Curve for several frames without changing the timing.
This allows to preview motions 'on-twos' for example without altering the timing, or having to go through setting heaps of keyframes. In this case, Andy wanted to use this for CG <-> StopMo.
- recode of the whole sequencer audio handling
- encode audio flag removed, instead you choose None as audio codec, added None for video codec too
- ffmpeg formats/codecs: enabled: theora, ogg, vorbis; added: matroska, flac (not working, who can fix?), mp3, wav
- sequencer wave drawing
- volume animation (now also working when mixing down to a file!)
- made sequencer strip position and length values unanimatable
This commit introduces the Select More/Less Operators (Ctrl +/-) for keyframes. This works like the ones for curves, by only selecting/deselecting keyframes lying in the same F-Curve. Inter F-Curve selection is not done by this operator. That is the job for another one.
This is especially useful for F-Curves set in the 0-1-0 pattern (i.e. 3 keyframes forming localised peaks), where the peaks can be selected by clicking on them individually, and immediately surrounding '0' values are selected too using "Select More".
* Refactored the whole audaspace library to use float as sample format over all readers.
* Added new Readers like the linear resampler, envelope, lowpass, highpass and butterworth.
* Note: The butterworth filter isn't working correctly, some bug in there... Maybe also true for the envelope.
* Added a sound to f-curve operator that behaves mostly like the soundtracker script of technoestupido.
* 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.
I've finally given in, and implemented a '2d-cursor' for the Graph Editor. This is simply represented as an additional horizontal line that meets with the current frame indicator, forming a cross-hair. It can be disabled from the View menu.
Currently, the only tool which takes this into account is the Snapping tools (Shift-S), where I've hooked up a tool I added some time ago.
TODO:
- expose this cursor to the transform tools for scaling/rotation options...
Keymaps are now saveable and configurable from the user preferences, note
that editing one item in a keymap means the whole keymap is now defined by
the user and will not be updated by Blender, an option for syncing might be
added later. The outliner interface is still there, but I will probably
remove it.
There's actually 3 levels now:
* Default builtin key configuration.
* Key configuration loaded from .py file, for configs like Blender 2.4x
or other 3D applications.
* Keymaps edited by the user and saved in .B.blend. These can be saved
to .py files as well to make creating distributable configurations
easier.
Also, user preferences sections were reorganized a bit, now there is:
Interface, Editing, Input, Files and System.
Implementation notes:
* wmKeyConfig was added which represents a key configuration containing
keymaps.
* wmKeymapItem was renamed to wmKeyMapItem for consistency with wmKeyMap.
* Modal maps are not wrapped yet.
* User preferences DNA file reading did not support newdataadr() yet,
added this now for reading keymaps.
* Key configuration related settings are now RNA wrapped.
* is_property_set and is_property_hidden python methods were added.
* All the selected F-Curves will get the same type of F-Modifier added.
* The button in the properties region will still only added the F-Modifier to the active F-Curve though
* For now, there must be an active F-Curve in either case, otherwise the poll() callback fails.
their handlers based on notifiers, which is simpler and more
reliable.
This fixes for example editmode or uv edit keymaps not working
when creating a new 3dview or image space.
* Rename BIF_transform/retopo.h to ED_transform/retopo.h
for consistency.
* Move MESH_OT_duplicate_add to editmesh_add.c.
* Remove some code from BIF_gl.h which is not needed there
anymore.
* Using the Ctrl-Shift-M hotkey, F-Modifiers can be added to all the selected strips.
* F-Modifiers can also be added/tweaked from the NLA N-Key properties. The UI now uses the same code as for the graph editor ones.
The UI drawing here is currently messed up from the NLA side, since it seems combining normal layout stuff and old-style uiBlocks doesn't seem to work too well (BUT! the buttons are at least functional).
Next up, I'll need to recode the buttons panel for the Graph Editor so that all of the drawing can be migrated over to use the new layout engine.
For now, some of these polls may be a bit too restrictive, but at least we have some unified+cleaned bases to work from now (instead of relying on the generic ED_operator_area_active).
As with the DopeSheet, the names of operators in the Graph Editor have been cleaned up, and operators have been added to menus as appropriate to show their availability.
Tweaked a few DopeSheet operator names to be more in line with the Graph Editor equivalents, and vica versa.
TODO: now, the operator poll callbacks here need checking...
* Fixed bug with curves sometimes not being displayed. Will investigate further tomorrow.
* Copy/Paste buttons in header now work. I've ported these over to use operator buttons
* Ctrl-Alt-Shift-RMB now selects all the keyframes in multiple F-Curves at once
* Column select (ALT-RMB) works again, and in conjunction with 'extend' (i.e. SHIFT) to add to selection instead of just replacing
* Select all keyframes in curve (CTRL-ALT-RMB) now works
* Fixed a few typos in the code
* Switched the meaning of the Ctrl and Alt modifiers when selecting keyframes.
- Ctrl is now select all keyframes on one side of time cursor
- Alt is now select all keyframes at same time as a particular keyframe.
TODO:
While testing these changes, I've found that this column-select is not working yet as the tolerances are too low. This will be rectified soon.
This feature takes a 'snapshot' of the visible+selected F-Curves, and displays these in the background as 'ghosts curves' in the background. Such curves are drawn semi-transparent, slightly darker, and with dotted lines.
To use, simply click the 'curve' button beside the Auto-Snapping selector. To clear, simply click that button again (with a different icon now).
These 'ghost curves' are stored per Graph Editor instance, and are not saved to file (i.e. per session only). They are useful to be used as guides when refining the shape of existing curves.
Now it is possible to add more keyframes to the 'active' F-Curve by simply Ctrl-LMB clicking in the graph space.
NOTE: more advanced polling callbacks are needed in the Graph Editor...
- use select as a suffix eg UV_OT_loop_select -> UV_OT_select_loop
- Each select all operator was using slightly different wording...
select_all, deselect_all, de_select_all, select_de_select_all -> select_all_toggle
- selection -> select
- POSE_OT_select_connected -> POSE_OT_select_linked to match other operators
- NODE_OT_delete_selection -> NODE_OT_delete since its not used in other operators
- ANIM_OT_previewrange_define -> ANIM_OT_previewrange_set to match other operators
- NODE_OT_fit_all -> NODE_OT_view_all to match other operators
- View2D_OT_* -> VIEW2D_OT_* to match VIEW3D
- View2D_OT_view_downscroll -> VIEW2D_OT_scroll_down more logical
- removed MARKER_OT_mouseselect_extend and made extend a boolean property of MARKER_OT_mouseselect
- MARKER_OT_mouseselect -> MARKER_OT_select
- GROUP_OT_group_remove -> GROUP_OT_objects_remove more logical since its removing objects from groups
- MESH_OT_removedoublesflag -> MESH_OT_remove_doubles
- redundant words MESH_OT_split_mesh -> MESH_OT_split, OBJECT_OT_object_delete -> OBJECT_OT_delete
renamed selection operator properties
extend_select -> extend
column_select -> column
select_children_only -> children_only
... Since these are all in the context of selection operators there is no need for the extra 'select' in the property name.
Updated docs
http://www.graphicall.org/ftp/ideasman42/html/bpyoperator-module.html
- Completed cleaning up the drawing code so that F-Curves with modifiers now get drawn to reflect this.
- Added a temporary operator to add modifiers (hotkey Ctrl-Shift-M)
This operator can be activated using the 'Alt-C' hotkey for now, and operates on selected + editable F-Curves. This is currently still highly experimental, and does crash
I've implemented this as a way to test out the FPoints/samples code, which will be used to provide better support of the dense F-Curves which result from importing Mocap/BVH data. These should use considerably less memory + have a few additional benefits over keyframes when they're working in a stable fashion.
Graph Editor: added region for buttons (properties), so we can
check drivers again! Works like view3d, press NKEY. No buttons
there yet though... no time anymore today, it'll require some
RNA magic probably.
As creator of the Ipo I also reserve to right to kick it out
definitely :) To honour the wonderful contributions from Joshua
here it is; renamed space_ipo to space_graph!
Note; make, cmake and scons should work, msvc will require some
work now!
