eg:
row.prop_search_self(scene, "active", "keying_sets", text="")
...becomes
row.prop_search(scene.keying_sets, "active", scene, "keying_sets", text="")
This is more flexible since it works for other UI functions too.
eg:
bpy.context.StringProperty(attr='myprop'); del bpy.context.myprop
- made rna StringProperty/PointerProperty & similar into class methods.
- file selector hide option was inverted
- they now share the same code so it wont happen again.
- added id_data to properties so we can do...
matrix = C.object.matrix_world
obj = matrix.owner.id_data # get the original object back.
An example of how this is useful - an importer mixin could define the filepath properties and a generic invoke function which can run the subclasses exec for each selected file.
- Panels and Menus now skip the property check when registering.
- renamed _idproperties_ to _idprops_ in function names, function names were getting very long.
commenting 'blend_factor' for now, its not used.
COLOR and EULER internal pyrna subtypes were causing color type variables to try update euler rotation order.
- raise an exception when python calls is_property_set(name) or is_property_hidden(name) and the property does not exist.
- added BLI_findstring_ptr(), which finds a named item in a listbase where that name is a pointer to a string.
- replaced inline for loops with calls to BLI_findstring_ptr() and IDP_GetPropertyFromGroup().
poll() function is now a static method in python, this is more correct, matching C where the operator is not created to run poll.
def poll(self, context): ...
is now...
@staticmethod
def poll(context): ...
Pythons way of doing static methods is a bit odd but cant be helped :|
This does make subclassing poll functions with COMPAT_ENGINES break, so had to modify quite a few scripts for this.
- removed the immediate option from C/api and now store in python only, when python loads modules it sets it to False.
- unloading a module would clear the entire TypeMap for all modules, only remove the module types that is being unloaded.
- added some checks for bad class registering, report errors rather then crashing.
- exceptions in the __init__ functions were not being checked for and segfaulting
- avoid creating a new BPy_StructRNA instance per function call, use the existing one if the type matches.
F8 key enabled again, useful for script UI development.
- keying set freeing wasnt freeing from all scenes and the builtin list.
- PointerProperty() cant refer to a removed python srna type (fixed in rigify and netrender).
- Added a check for freeing a type used by a PointerProperty but its very slow, makes reloading take ~10sec. Only enabled this in debug mode for now.
Netrender register() function isnt re-registering the property, probably because the module is cached by python and not re-run.
path -> filepath (for rna and operators, as agreed on with elubie)
path -> data_path (for windowmanager context functions, this was alredy used in many places)
Throwing an exception if the strings too long means scripts need to be aware of string lengths and changing a string length in RNA can too easily break scripts.
Instead honor the string length in RNA_property_string_set()
- return euler rotation values from rna now have correct rotation order.
- mathutils.Euler stored rotation order off by 1. (didnt work at all)
- Euler/Quat/Color sliceing working again.
- added new mathutils.Color() type, use with rna so we can do for eg:
material.diffuse_color.r = 1.0
# also has hsv access
material.diffuse_color.s = 0.6
- made Mathutils and Geometry module names lowercase.
- vectors now respect min/max settings.
- keyframing and adding drivers raises an error in an index is set on a non array, keyframing raises an error if it fails.
reference docs...
- added docstrings for remaining python bpy_struct functions
- added fake class for docs, bpy_struct, which is the base class of everything in bpy.types
- improved inherictance references for struct classes, include bpy_struct members.
